Breakfast: How Great is Our God

by Hillary Mortensen

Good morning, and thank you for joining us for another day of prayer and fasting. It is such an encouragement to know that others join us to intercede on behalf of Adam and his family.

Wow, this week has been a crazy sort of week, hasn't it? Adam, Amy, and Mackenzie have just been settling into their new normal in Florida; many experienced the loss of a loved one this week; and we celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord at Easter. Many have experienced disturbed schedules, grief, transition, feasting, celebrating, and more.

Well, the blog this week is also on a bit of a different schedule. With so much going on, there is a tendency to focus on ourselves and our immediate circumstances. Thus, we will take some moments out today to simply focus on the Lord, His character, and how He has provided for us out of His goodness.

This morning, let's start out with the song Amy mentioned singing with Adam yesterday, as described in her recent post. It focuses on the greatness of our God.

If you are able to, right where you are, sing along in praise. If you're not able to sing aloud, close your eyes, listen to the words, and make them your prayer of praise. There is no "right" way to worship but to humbly come before the Lord and proclaim His holiness and in this case, His greatness. Worship. Worship not because you necessarily feel like it, but because God is God and is worthy of all praise.





Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise...

Psalm 45:1a

Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness.

Psalm 29:2
