I sat with Jesus this morning, near to His heart—where He tenderly and so graciously keeps me as His own. I sat and felt Him call my thoughts of Him higher. And my mind lifted; my disposition lifted. Who I am is so directly connected with who He is; I am in Him, united.

He wanted my mind to think of Him as noble, great, wise, high and lifted up. These thoughts should immediately follow from thinking of Him and His name. How much help my mind needs with regard to all things spiritual! But this is who He is—my mighty King.

So, I reflected today on Him as King of kings and Lord of lords. And I read about the millennium, in which He will reign for 1,000 years on this earth. I read about how He will shepherd with an iron scepter—in Revelation. He will establish righteous order on the earth. And, I read in Psalm 72 about His fame, and how the nations will glorify Him with gifts, and how He will reign from sea to sea and over all the earth. And I read about how He alone is the one who works wonders. No one is like our God.

Do you not long to see that day—when the whole world will give Him glory and will contribute to the greatness and fame of His name? What a contrast to this day! But the enemy is running out of time—and the day will soon come when our God will be glorified in His world and by the people He has made. How great is our God! Every knee will bow.

Lift, lift, lift my thoughts of You.
