How we see God is generally formed by how we were raised.
We showed God our best every Sunday, we would dress up, revere Him.
We should give God our Sunday best everyday, not just Sunday.
If that means dressing up everyday to help us feel that in our souls, then do it!
As a King, he deserves reverence.
As a Father, he deserves obedience.
Disobedience has consequences, just like on earthly parents. When we disobey, there are consequences.
My Father is famous- He's a King. But I can come to Him personally to honor and submit to Him, because i'm part of his family.. and he loves me!!
to be known is to be generally recognized.
Everyone is God's creation, but in order to be sons and daughters of His, there must be acceptance of the truth of what He did, and submitting to a relationship with Him.
"Be Still, and know that I am God."
Ephesians 3:14-21
For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith -- that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Not to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the peer at work within us, to him be glory to the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
