“A glorious throne, exalted from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary” (Jeremiah 17:12).
The Lord is enthroned on the praises of His people - “Jesus, we
enthrone You ... We lift You up with our praise. And as we worship,
build Your throne. Come, Lord Jesus, and take Your place.” When the Lord
is enthroned on the praises of His people, there will also be prayer
and proclamation - “Devote yourselves to prayer ... that we may proclaim
the mystery of Christ ... clearly” (Colossians 4:2-4).
The blessing of the Lord is upon those who come to His House, seeking
Him: “Blessed is he who comes in the Name of the Lord. From the House
of the Lord we bless you” (Psalm 118:26).
Psalm 48:1-14 Lord, we worship You in the place of worship – “Within Your Temple, we meditate on Your unfailing love.” Help us to go out from there, and play our part in seeing that Your praise “reaches to the ends of the earth” (Psalm 48:: 9-11). How will other people know of Your love, if we don’t tell them? How will they find their way to Your House, if we don’t invite them? When we share Your Word with others, help us to remember Your promise: “My Word … will not return to Me empty, but will … achieve the purpose for which I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11).
