Giving God the Glory!

Ezekiel 31:10 
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;

Ezekiel 31:11
I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.



When I have raised my hands in victory,    I give God the glory.
His is the glory.  His is the victory.  His is the honor because He alone is worthy.

When I have enjoyed the smell of sweet success,   I give to God the glory.
Vain and putrid is the pride of man.  Sinful and selfserving is all acceptance of accolades on earth.

I won’t be satisfied with earthly achievements until my soul is satisfied in Jesus.  If you are not with me in my victories it is no victory.  If you are not with me in my completions the action is not complete.

Lord, Your help alone is right thinking.  I know that Your spirit is there, wherever I go.  Let Your Spirit catch me and hold me, even when my heart is rising and exalting.  Let Your Spirit catch me lest I fall into the pit, in my despair.

You are the fairest and most beautiful.  You are the exalted and mighty king.  Give grace to see the exaltation of Your attributes in the good times and the dark.  I love You Lord for all Your graces and help.
