Usage
of the phrases “My God” and “Our God” in songs and conversations among
believers has gone far afield from the Biblical context in which they were
used. These seemingly innocent attempts to describe our relationship with
Elohim must only be spoken with keen Scriptural understanding: “I am the Lord,
there is no other, apart from me there is no God.” Plain and simple, to even
imply that He is but one choice among many is fundamentally false. In a world
of increasing polytheism we must be clear, the LORD is One, He stands alone as
King of the Universe, Creator of All Things. Holy LORD, let my life declare
boldly, You Alone are Almighty God.
A serious pursuit of godliness requires an equally serious renunciation of worldliness. Too often, we measure spirituality with false scales. While being wisely selective with our public vices we are less so with our private attitudes and perspectives. In reality, it is the thoughts and intents of the heart where the greatest battles must be waged; our actions will ultimately align with the condition of our hearts. Lord God, You know me inside out, You are not fooled by human facades. Plow my heart with Your Word and Spirit and leave nothing unturned. Refresh my inward man that I may outwardly glorify You in all places at all times.
