Since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.
Holy and Awesome is Your name O God!
Eternal praise belongs to You! It is a delight to reflect on Your great works and wonders. Your deeds are glorious and majestic. Gazing on the marvelous masterpieces You’ve created is pure and perfect pleasure for the eyes of my heart. Your righteousness endures forever! Your Words are the treasure that I seek. I desire nothing more than to live in the blessing You promise to those who love and honor You. How can I love and respect You, if I don’t KNOW You? Please fill me with deeper knowledge of who You are so that I will live a holy, blameless and pure life.
May my actions show a watching world my high respect and total dependence on You. You are the source of all my wisdom. I am an ignorant fool without You. Open the ears of my heart to hear Your voice and receive Your instruction. As I receive Your wise and godly counsel, crown me with glorious grace to understand. Adorn my neck with a sparkling chain as a reminder:
- To love and honor You
- To live in awe of Your power and,
- To obey Your Word
May I pass on this all-surpassing knowledge of Your greatness and power to those I come in contact with today so that they too will KNOW You, love You, and fear You because of Jesus. Amen.
Do you consider it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God? The consequences for your choice are clear. Again, I encourage you to take time to be holy. It’s a life-long process. Ask God to give you the desire and power to know Him more each day.
Proverbs 1:7
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools despise wisdom and discipline.
Psalm 111:10
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all who follow his precepts have good understanding.
To him belongs eternal praise.
