Read and Reflect: Revelation 4:1-11
Questions:
- The door into heaven opens and we get a glimpse of glory - where do we glimpse God and his glory in our everyday lives?
-
- How can we be more alert to the hand of God, his majesty, and glory daily?
- When and where might God be calling us to ‘come up here’ and spend time in his presence (See Luke 10:38-42) in this coming year?
- This vision of the throne is awe-full. What thoughts and feelings does it summon in us?
- What mistakes do we make in our thinking and feeling, when considering the majesty, power, and grace of God – have we made our God too small?
- How can we increase our understanding of God and his nature, gaining a better perspective of his greatness?
- How does a better perspective enable us to face our joys, hopes, fears, and sorrows?
- Joining with all creation (the living creatures) and the whole people of God, the ‘Church’ before and since Christ (the 24 elders) we worship God.
- What does our worship – remembering that worship is synonymous with service – look like?
- What kind of worshipping people do we want to be this year?
- What does our worship – remembering that worship is synonymous with service – look like?
