I must confess that something just stirred up inside of me as I opened my PC to write this article, I’d wanted to write on an entirely different topic but I couldn’t hence this topic. Many of us as Men no matter our circumstance need to worship God daily. Nonstop. Sometimes, when I look at His Awesome wonder, I marvel at his sculptural dexterity. Forget human physiology and anatomy. Forget Medicine! God is an artist. He formed the bones and covered them in sinews and tendons. He formed the ball and socket joints and didn’t leave it like that; he added cartilages as a form of shock absorbers. He formed the ear and covered the middles section, the most delicate part with a tympanic membrane or else many of us in this 21st century would have gone deaf with the advent of over-blaring iPods and MP4s. He covered the eyeballs with an automatic eyelid, no matter the danger, no matter how small a foreign object may be, the eyelid closes before impact. It’s like He has a remote control in his hands up there. Take a look at your heart (I know you can’t see it but visualise its mechanism, follow the rhythm) and tell me if there is a Piston and Sleeve in place, what pumps that little organ? It’s been pumping the very minute you and I were conceived and will never stop till we drop the last breath. Even a Bentley Continental GT needs an annual service. When was the very last time you manually serviced your heart? What about the brain? Not even the world's fastest supercomputers can match it in Intuition.
You see, appreciating God is a personal exercise, no one can do it for you, wake up in the morning and say:
"Covenant keeping God
There is no One like You
I am that I am, i say
There is no One like You"
Walk into your bathroom and as the water touches your head from the shower faucets, shout in allegro again and sing:
"As the deer pantheth for the waters
So my soul longs after you
You alone are my heart’s desire and I long to worship You.............."
As you wear your crispy shirt plus blue suit, tell Him once again:
"I am grateful Oh God/2X
For all you have done for me
I am grateful oh God"
As you commence your daily journey to work, touch God’s raw nerves with this sweet melody:
"I stand/2x
In awe of You
I stand/2x
In awe of You
Only God to whom all praise is due
I stand in awe of you"
When you get to work and think of the thousands of jobless human beings, tell Him this pls:
"Who am i that you are mindful of me?
How You love me when i call
Is it true that you are thinking of me?
Its amazing/2x
I am a friend of God/3x
He calls me friend"
As you have your sumptuous lunch, tell Him this pls:
Forever
Oh Lord
The word is settled
In heaven
It is settled
Return home singing this age long hymn: Now thank we all our God
Now thank we all our God, with heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things has done, in Whom this world rejoices;
Who from our mothers’ arms has blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love, and still is ours today.
O may this bounteous God through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts and blessèd peace to cheer us;
And keep us in His grace, and guide us when perplexed;
And free us from all ills, in this world and the next!
All praise and thanks to God the Father now be given;
The Son and Him Who reigns with Them in highest Heaven;
The one eternal God, whom earth and Heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now, and shall be evermore.
When it’s time to go to bed, shake the heavens in high decibel with this:
Great is your mercy towards me
Your loving kindness towards me
Your tender mercies i see
Day after day
Forever faithful towards me
Always providing for me
Great is your mercy towards me
Great is your grace
Forget your academic qualifications, forget your family pedigree, forget your political associations, forget the wealth you have amassed, be lost in His glory. If not for Him, where would you have been?
Many are blind: You have a clear sight, even with a fashionable contact lenses
Many are deaf: You can hear and decipher correctly my Dear!
Many are crippled: You have both legs intact and even have a Prada lace up shoe right now!
Many are depressed: You have your sanity intact!
Many are barren: Of course you have a Baby, oh my God, many even have triplets!
Give it to him because He is: Wonderful, Glorious, Holy, Majestic, Healer, Deliverer, Shield, Defence, Strong, Tower, Your best Friend, Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Soon coming King, Alpha, Omega, Lord of everything! He is GOD. Jehovah ELOHIM-The ONE who created the universe.
