God's Honor
Passage Romans 1:18-23
Prayer
Great and awesome Father, to whom all honor and glory is due, how sorry I am that men do not honor you as their God and King!
It is to their loss and to their hurt, but it insults you! They wickedly suppress the truth. Through creation, you have shown them plainly what can be known about you, so they are without excuse.
Although they know of you, the true God, they do not honor you as God or give thanks to you as God. Therefore their thinking is futile and their senseless minds are darkened. Claiming to be wise, they become fools and exchange your glory, the glory of the immortal God, for images resembling mortal man or birds or animals or reptiles.
How awful is your judgment! Because they exchange the truth about you for a lie and worship and serve the creature rather than you, the Creator, the holy God, who is blessed for ever, you give them up to the lusts of their impure hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves.
May I never be so foolish as to trade your glory for my own.
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, creator and sustainer of the universe.
Amen.
