In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures … Day and night they never stop saying: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.” Whenever the living creatures give glory, honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne and who lives for ever and ever, the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives for ever and ever. They lay their crowns before the throne. —Revelation 4:6-10
This throne, filled with the grace of God, is the most awesome place in all existence. It is the foundation of the entire created order. It is the center of everything. It is the purpose for everything, for He who created all things sits upon the throne, and all things exist for His pleasure. When we stand before Him at the judgment seat, what He is thinking about us will be the only thing that counts. When we lose the awareness of God our Father on this throne with Jesus seated at His right hand, then our problems become insurmountable in our thinking. The despair can be unbelievable. We forget that everything else passes away, and nothing has any significance and relevance outside the reality of the person upon this throne.
{ PRAYER STARTER }
Jesus, it is incredible to me that from Your throne beside the Father in heaven You watch over my life. Thank You for Your intercession on my behalf. Let me please You with my life.
All else is temporal, except the things that are
pleasing to Him.
