"The Habitation of His Throne"

"Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne." (Psalms 97:2)
If there ever was a place where majesty could be acknowledged, then you are going to witness it one glorious day; of that you can be sure of. Until then, we can take comfort in knowing that God's love is enough to express all that we need to know for now; because in this present mortal body, we would not and could not survive in His presence. I can only try to imagine what it might be like; based upon the description of Revelation, we can give it our best shot to imagine it being bright and glorious; but in all of our imagining, I doubt we could ever come close to what it might really be like. Maybe that is what Jesus meant by saying, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." Not that we can actually see where God inhabits, because that's far beyond our current reach; but to see a glimpse of who He is and what He has done, these are the things that cause our hearts to fall in love with our Creator. I truly believe that this Psalm is meant to follow after the previous one; they are in perfect harmony with one another, and they continue with the same theme of "God is the True King." Back to the "isles," and how they are inhabitable; they are more than just place to dwell upon, they are a refuge and a shelter from the world. I could not begin to even try and describe for you what I am talking about, because it is something you cannot experience until you have actually done so on your own. But the Holy Spirit gives us more than power to overcome, He gives us comfort to rest in God's love. There is a lot to take in here; more than I can possible explore in just one morning post. That said, when we totally surrender all that we are to the One who loves us, we are truly enthroned in His love. When I think about the reasons I have to be out of sorts, they can sometimes be more than overwhelming, to say the least. But God's love can be the place where all of that is lost. It's where I go to find peace; but more than that, it's where I go to find the solution and answer to all that I seek. That is what Jesus was talking about to Nicodemus, answers to what he did seek...
"Oh, how great are God's riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways! For who can know the LORD'S thoughts? Who knows enough to give him advice? And who has given him so much that he needs to pay it back? For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen." (Romans 11:33-36) NLT
