Glory to God
In a world filled with distractions, demands, and uncertainty, our hearts need regular reminders of what truly matters. At the center of it all is one unchanging truth: all glory belongs to God. When we lift our eyes from our circumstances and focus on His glory, our perspective shifts. Worship becomes more than a moment, it becomes a way of life that anchors our faith and strengthens our homes.
The Radiance of God’s Glory
Scripture gives us a breathtaking picture of Jesus and His divine nature:
Hebrews 1:3 (ESV) He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
Jesus is not merely a reflection of God’s glory, He is its radiance. Everything about Him reveals the heart and character of God. His power sustains the universe, yet His love reached all the way to the cross to cleanse us from sin. This is the Savior we worship, glorious, victorious, and seated in authority.
A Finished Work Worthy of Praise
The verse reminds us that Jesus made purification for sins and then sat down. His work was complete. Nothing more needed to be added. That truth brings peace to weary hearts and confidence to our worship. We don’t praise Him hoping to earn His favor; we praise Him because He has already secured our salvation.
When families understand this, worship becomes joyful rather than burdensome. It becomes a response of gratitude for grace freely given.
Worship That Lifts Our Eyes
Songs that declare God’s glory help move truth from our minds to our hearts. As you worship together this week, allow the words you sing to align your family’s focus with heaven. Worship reminds us that God is bigger than our problems, stronger than our fears, and worthy of every ounce of praise we can offer.

Lord, all glory belongs to You. You have done so much for us, and Your love never fails. We worship and praise You today. Please bless our family and fill our home with Your peace and joy. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
