21 Days of Prayer: Day 2 (God Is Holy)

DAY 2
Tuesday, October 15

Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under its wings. Day and night they never stop saying: ‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come. – Revelation 4:8

GOD IS HOLY
I imagine something incredible happening in Heaven when I read this passage. The heavenly creatures are constantly declaring to everyone that God is holy! But can we fully grasp what that word means? In truth, we don’t have a single word that can completely describe the holiness of God. His holiness is far beyond anything we can express.

The Bible gives us glimpses of this in passages like Isaiah 6:3, which says: “And they were calling to one another: ‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.’” This verse reminds us of how great and mighty our God is. The entire earth exists by His will, and His glory fills it.

I believe it is important to reflect on God’s glory and realize how small we are compared to the Creator of the universe. When we worship—whether through music, prayer, or giving—we do it for the King of Kings, the one who is truly worthy of all glory. And though He is so high and holy, He still listens to us and speaks to us. We only need to listen and hear Him. His voice is always present—whether through Scripture, prayer, or the beauty of His creation—guiding us every day if we open our hearts.

PRAYER:
Our Holy Father, thank You for Your perfection, for creating the earth, and for creating us. I pray, as Your Word says, that all generations will bow before You and proclaim Your holiness. Help us to prepare our hearts on earth by worshiping You and sharing the truth that You alone are the holy King of the universe. Amen.

Pray For Our Church: Take some time to pray for Pathway today—the people who make up our church, the staff, the ministries, etc. Ask God to work in and through us.

Pray For Our City: Pray for the people of our community and ask God to be at work in our hometown.

Pray For Our Nation: Pray for our nation—its people and its leaders. Boldly and specifically make your requests, then submit those desires to God’s will. Express your trust in Him.

REFLECT:

• How have you seen God’s faithfulness and his promises lived out today?
• Write 2-3 points of gratitude and thank Jesus for these things.
• Spend time praising God for who he is, what he has done, where he is at work, and what he has promised.
