Rising To Worship

Rising To Worship

It is a comforting fact that the three persons of the Trinity are never brought together in the Bible without resulting blessing. We have instances in which each one, standing by Himself, presents an aspect of fear: the Father, clothed with the thunders of Sinai (Ex. 19:12,16,18; 20:18; Heb. 12:20); the Son, as the falling stone that grinds to powder (Mt. 21:44; Lk. 20:18); and the Holy Spirit, who will never forgive the sin against Him (Mt. 12:31-32; Mk. 3:28-29).

“But there is not an instance on record in the Bible in which the three persons of the Trinity stand together without the intention of grace. And it is a magnificent thought that the completeness of the deity, in all His essence and operation, is never mentioned but for mercy.” So wrote the late James Vaughn, a well-taught servant of God.

The whole doctrine of the Trinity is a subject not of understanding but of faith. We must come to God in such a spirit as that which fills the minds of angels when they cry out, “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!” (Rev. 4:8). This should be an example for us to rise up from prayer to worship, from supplication to adoration.

O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture,and the sheep of His hand.Psalm 95:6-7
