"GOD Sits High"

What a beautiful way to start off your day by being reminded that God still sits on the throne in heaven; that God sits enthroned above the circle of the earth; that God sits high and looks low; and that just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are his ways and his thoughts higher than your ways and your thoughts. When the passage says that He sits "enthroned" above the circle of the earth, it means that God dwells in the heavens above the earth, specifically as a judge looking down on his people whom look like grasshoppers from where He sits. In other words, God sees and knows everything that is going on with his creation. "Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight" because of where God sits! In life there will be many things that occur throughout your lifetime that you will struggle to find answers for like the tragedies such as the church shooting or what happened in Las Vegas. There will be times where you will personally go through something that you may not understand why you are going through it. And there will be times when you will look up to the heavens and ask, "why me God?" 

Yet, even though you may not have all the answers, when you look up to the heavens to ask God, "why me" you can rest assure God sits enthroned above the circle of the earth.., who has all the answers, who contains all the wisdom, who by his understanding made the heavens, and who knows exactly what you are going through. You can rest assure when you look up to the heavens seeking answers for your particular situation, that Jesus sits on the right hand throne of God in victory over everything you are going through! Hallelujah! God sits high and looks low! 

All you have to do is trust God that He knows why you are going through what you are going through! All you have to do is trust God that he works all things together for the good of those who love him, to include those things that you lack understanding in. All you have to do is trust God for what His Word says that He will never leave you nor forsake you and that He is with you wherever you go in life. And all you have to do is trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding and just acknowledge Him in all your ways so He can make your paths straight. Trust God that He knows all of your needs before you even ask of them. Jesus said in Matthew 6:31-33, "Therefore, do not worry, saying what shall we eat or what shall we drink or what shall we wear? For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek ye first the kingdom of God and all of his righteousness and all of these things shall be added unto you."  

So, as you go about your day trust God that he knows what's best for you. Remember that God sits enthroned above the circle of the earth fighting for you! He sees you, He knows you, He's with you, and He has you in the palm of his hand! And don't forget what Jesus said in Revelation 3:21... "To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne." God sits high, and so will you if you stand firm in your faith, amen!
