*_Open Our Eyes: Recognizing God's Glory in All Things_*


God desires for us to know Him, and He has chosen to reveal Himself in many ways: through the Bible, through creation, through His intervention in history, and through His work in the lives of people. Psalm 19:1-2 declares, *"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, and night unto night reveals knowledge."* Everything God does reveals His glory and majesty. From the vastness of the universe to the intimate details of our lives, God is always making Himself known to us.


However, there are times when our spiritual eyes are dim, and we struggle to see God's hand at work. We may become so focused on our problems and challenges that we forget the wonders the Lord has performed in our lives and in the world around us. In those moments, we neglect to thank the Lord with all our hearts, forgetting that His deeds are always amazing and His righteousness never fails.


Psalm 111:2-3 reminds us, *"The works of the Lord are great, studied by all who have pleasure in them. His work is honorable and glorious, and His righteousness endures forever."* This psalm urges us to recognize that everything God does reveals His glory and to continually remind ourselves of His marvelous works.


What a blessing it is to have His Word, which draws us back again and again to the truth of who God is. When we meditate on the Scriptures, we are reminded of God's incredible deeds, His unfailing righteousness, and His steadfast love. The Bible is a constant guide that helps us see more clearly and remember His faithfulness. As Psalm 119:105 states, *"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."*


As you approach God in prayer today, ask Him to help you see Him more clearly. Pray for the ability to remember and ponder His marvelous works of redemption in your life. Let His Word be the lens through which you view the world, recognizing His glory in every aspect of life.

  I Will Build My Church – Matthew 16:13-19   We are living at a very crucial time when it appears the devil has taken over the stage. All over the world, news of crises and criminal activities pervade the whole atmosphere. For those who have the spiritual insight and understanding of time, the whole arsenal of the devil is directed at the church moreso, when the coming of the Lord is nearer than before. Nevertheless, the plan and purpose of God cannot but come to pass. The Lord’s words cannot go out without being fulfilled that “…I will build my Church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”. Amen.   The church, that is, the Body of Christ, does not belong to anybody hence; Jesus said “…I will build my church…” No man or woman who has by His grace become, a building block and precious stone in the Body of Christ, can lay claim to the church. We have become a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, that we should show...
