"But the LORD is in his holy Temple. Let all the earth be silent before him.” ~ Habakkuk 2:20
Idols have no life, no personhood, no power; idols are empty chunks of wood or stone or thought. Temples built to idols are equally empty; no one lives there. But the Lord is in his temple. He is real, alive, and powerful. He is truly and fully God. Worshipers of emptiness command their idols to save them, but we who worship the living God come to him in silent awe, with great respect, and with reverence. We acknowledge that God is in control and knows what he is doing. Idols remain silent, because they cannot answer. The living God, by contrast, speaks through his Word. Approach God reverently and wait silently to hear what he has to say.
Be ye prepared for the sweet Sabbath rest, yes live each day as a part of your worship. Work hard as a testament to thy Father who blesses thee, and enter into his temple with praise.
