Thinking, praying, reading, studying the Bible – when we do these things, we are reflecting on the Word of God. To reflect is to contemplate and/or consider, and God wants us to deeply reflect on His Word so that we can better understand Him.

Thursday Reflecting

And daily He shall be praised. – Psalm 72:15.

See you starry host! See the mighty cohorts of cherubs and seraphs! Let men begone, and they shall praise Him; let the troops of the glorified cease their notes, and let no sweet melodies ever come from the lips of sainted men and women,—yet the chariots of God are twenty thousand, even many thousands of angels, who always in their motion chant His praise. There is an orchestra on high, the music of which shall never cease, even were mortals extinct, and all the human race swept from existence. Again: if angels were departed, still daily would He be praised; for are there not worlds on worlds, and suns on suns, and systems on systems, that could forever sing His praise? Yes! The ocean—that house of storms—would howl out His glories; the winds would swell the notes of His praise with their ceaseless gales; the thunders would roll like drums in the march of the God of armies; the illimitable void of ether would become vocal with song; and space itself would burst forth into one universal chorus, “Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah! still the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.” And if these were gone, if creatures ceased to exist, He whoever liveth and reigneth, in whom all the fullness of the Godhead bodily dwells, would still be praised, praised in Himself, and glorious in Himself; for the Father would praise the Son, and the Spirit would praise Him: and mutually blessing one another, and rendering each other beatified, still “daily would He be praised.”
