Majesty

Cool thing that happened to me today: 

 When I prayed this morning before leaving for church I asked God to show me what he wanted me to learn today, this isn't a normal practice for me - but lately I haven't felt like I have been learning or hearing anything that is taught. I always seem to have a hard heart and not want to hear what is being said. I feel like this has been a successful way the devil has been attacking me, so today I prayed for God's help.

When I got in my truck to go to church my music was playing a song called "Your love shines" by Scott Cunningham Band. The first line I hear is "I fall to my knees, at the sight of your majesty". A beautiful line all in itself.

Then we sang a song in worship about God's majesty (I can't remember it, and I think it actually used the word majestic, but lets not be nit picky).

Then, Pastor Steve is preaching and he referred to a section in Daniel about Nebuchadnezzar. In this section it Nebuchadnezzar says "Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for a royal dwelling by my mighty power and the honour of my majesty?" I know this is talking of Nebuchadnezzar's majesty, but the sections depicts the difference between human majesty and God's majesty. Well it is talking about Nebuchadnezzar's humiliation, after he makes a declaration about his majesty. A stark image to me about the differences between human majesty and God's majesty.

Then when I get home and on my computer the first song that plays is Majesty (Here I am). This was not on purpose. I have my Itunes on random and shuffle. I just hit play and pause as I go away from my computer (thank-goodness for the mini player). I had somehow managed to stop it in between songs, so when I hit play Majesty started.

I think God wants me to know about his Majesty today.
