Where is your crown? - the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lord, casting their golden crowns and gave God the glory and honor He deserves. How much more should we do the same today? Let's spend this season casting our crowns - giving back to God the praise and adoration He so deserves for all that He has given us. He offered His only Son for our atonement, that we could be washed clean and live eternally - and even abundantly. He loves us, though we daily fail Him and grieve His Spirit with our thoughts and actions. He helps us in our times of need and gives us revelation when we seek Him. Thank you Lord, for ALL Your blessings toward us

" ... the twenty-four elders fall
down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, 'You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; For You have created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created.'"
Revelation 19:4
"Tashlich" -- the traditional Jewish ceremony occurring between Rosh ha Shana and Yom Kippur, which involves casting bread crumbs into a river while confessing our sins and watching them be swept downstream. 

In this passage, however, we read about the importance of casting our crowns. 

These elders fell down before the Lord, casting their golden crowns and gave God the glory and honor He deserves. 

How much more should we do the same today?

Let's spend this season casting our crowns - giving back to God the praise and adoration He so deserves for all that He has given us. 

He offered His only Son for our atonement, that we could be washed clean and live eternally -- and even abundantly. 

He loves us, though we daily fail Him and grieve His Spirit with our thoughts and actions. 

He helps us in our times of need and gives us revelation when we seek Him. 

Thank you Lord, for ALL Your blessings toward us -- 

You are Good and Your mercy endures forever -- hallelujah!

lyrics

Enthroned in Your glory
Clothed in raiment white
Your eyes burn with fire shining bright
The four and twenty elders
Kneel around Your throne
Casting forth their crowns at Your feet

In awe at Your splendor 
and the glory of Your throne
I lift my voice in worship 
to make your glories known
You are my King, 
You are my Lord
You are Jehovah, 
The Living Word
Almighty God, 
The Prince of Peace
You are the Great I am, 
My Victory
