Holy

In Leviticus we see God begin to sanctify His people (The word “holy” is repeated 152x) and I just saw this overwhelming call to be set apart for God’s work. To be separate. To be consecrated before Him… He is unlike anyother, completley unmatched in His beauty, His strength, His righteousness, His goodess, His wisdom, His holiness, His sovereignty, His EVERYTHING. There is nothing that compares to Him. And even though His holiness is something we can’t ever fully comprehend, we are called to obtain some degree of it, because we are made in His image... We are called to be holy because He is holy. We are called to be sanctified because God Himself is completely set apart, entirely unlike anything on earth or in Heaven. I love this quote by AW Tozer:

"We cannot grasp the true meaning of the divine holiness by thinking of someone or something very pure and then raising the concept to the highest degree we are capable of. God's holiness is not simply the best we know infinitely bettered. We know nothing like the divine holiness. It stands apart, unique, unapproachable, incomprehensible and unattainable. The natural man is blind to it. He may fear God's power and admire His wisdom, but His holiness he cannot even imagine."

There are no words to describe His holiness... Even just a glimpse of it makes me fall on my face in worship.
