“Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of Glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah.” Psalms 24:7-10 KJV
Everytime I read this passage of scriptures, I shout praises unto God. I mean every single time I hear or read these scriptures. Hallelujah! I’m shouting now because these scriptures let me know I have no business holding my head down as if I am in defeat. Because I am not. And neither are you, people of God.
Psalms chapter 24 and verse 1 states, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness therof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” Our God has dominion over everything; the earth and every single thing belongs to Him, including the people. He is the Lord of lords and Host of hosts. There is none like Him and no God beside Him. Isaiah 45:5
Lift up your heads, people of God. We serve a mighty good God. He will not fail you nor forsake you. Deuteronomy 31:6
Lift up your heads, people of God for He is strong and mighty. Be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Ephesians 6:10 And let us give thanks unto God who gives us the victory through Christ Jesus. 1 Corinthians 15:57
Lift up your heads, people of God and let the King of glory come in. For it is through Him, anything is possible. Be encouraged, stay grounded in His Word, and keep your eyes looking forward and toward the hills from where your help comes from. You are daughters and sons of the Most High God. Your circumstances do not define who you are nor determine where you will land. All things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28 Not man’s purpose. Not your mother’s or father’s purpose. Not your boss’s purpose. But God’s purpose.
My sister, my brother, hold your head up. Worry not about the things of the world for greater is He that is within you, than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4
