Daily Bread – December 18, 2023 (The Second Day – Genesis 1:6-8) 1 Chronicles 29:11-12 – To You, Lord, is the greatness, and the strength, and the glory, and the victory, and the splendor. For all that is in Heaven and in the Earth belongs to You. The Kingdom belongs to You, Lord, and You are exalted as Head over all. And the riches and the glory come from Your Presence, and You reign over everything, and in Your hand is the power and the strength, and it is in Your hand to make great and to strengthen everyone. Recognizing The Greatness Of God Everything in Heaven and Earth belongs to God, and He desires to bless His people with everything He has. One of the great tragedies existing among God’s people is they underestimate the power of God. He is not limited to a Heavenly realm only – but everything in the Heavens and in the Earth and all of its fullness are His! Too many days pass through our lives in which we fail to recognize the greatness of God. Instead, in our worry and concern, we look to men and to earthly means for what we need. We need to stand in the presence of God until we realize Who He really is! Everyday and in every situation, we must acknowledge that God reigns supremely, and that all of the splendor and beauty and glory and the greatness of all wealth and riches are His – and He gives to whom He chooses! We must equally recognize how He has chosen us, and desires to bless us and to give us charge over all He has. We can be certain His will is to make everyone great, and to give everyone strength to function in all of His wonderful riches – both of the precious things of the Heavens and of the precious things of the Earth (Deuteronomy 33:13-16).
