A devotional reflection on the holiness of God and His call for His people to be holy.

Topical

God’s holiness is His perfect purity and moral excellence. Scripture teaches that God’s holiness sets Him apart from all creation. His holiness exposes sin, reveals His glory, and calls His people to live set apart for Him.

Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts. (Isaiah 6:3)

Be ye holy; for I am holy. (1 Peter 1:16)

Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? (Revelation 15:4)

Christian Application

God’s holiness encourages believers that He is worthy of reverence, trust, and obedience. His holiness purifies and transforms His people. Revere God’s holiness, pursue purity, and worship Him with awe.

Sample Prayer

Lord, help me behold Your holiness and walk in purity before You. Amen.
