Reverence

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 6th of August, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Job 38:4-5. The Lord said to Job: “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding. Who determined its measurements? Surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it?” Then we go to the Book of Romans 9:20: ”But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, “Why have you made me like this?”  It’s absurd, isn’t it, to think that we can question the Creator of Heaven and Earth? I really want to share my heart with you this morning. We need to show God some respect. I have a real problem when I hear a man saying, talking about the Lord, says, “the man upstairs” or “my china”, “my mate”. Folks, you clearly do not know Who you are talking to. We need to be very careful how we answer God, how we speak to God. Remember, He is in Heaven, and we are on Earth. The Orthodox Jews, when they want to write the Torah, they literally wash, they change their clothes before they start writing. There have been Orthodox Jews who have written to me, and when they end their letter, they say God bless you. They spell God, G-D. They will not even spell the name of God on a piece of paper. We need to really be careful how we speak to the Lord.It’s so ridiculous. It’s like a little ant on a path, looking up at a huge elephant with his tusks touching the ground, and arguing with him. That’s how ridiculous it is. Oh folks, let’s get back to reality! Stop questioning God. Stop thumping the table. I’ve heard men say to me, ”When I get to Heaven, God’s going to have to answer some of my questions.” Folks, when you get to Heaven, you will be totally silent when you see the majesty of the Creator of Heaven and Earth!Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.
