GREATNESS OF OUR GOD - PART 2

Psalm 145:5-7 NLT 

I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty, 

and on Your wondrous works. 

Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts, 

and I will declare Your greatness. 

They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness,

 and shall sing of Your righteousness. 

What great verses again today as we look at the greatness of God in our lives, knowing His goodness goes on and on forever, so we’ll never exhaust it, which is a wonderful thought in itself.😊 It’s like coming to a buffet table filled with a variety of good food, and God wants us to feed off His goodness and greatness again today.

He is Lord of all and there is no one like Him, there is no one who comes near Him in power and authority and only He can tell us the future. Isaiah 46:9-10/Psalm 103:19

Jesus’ name is above every name, in the heavens above, in the earth and in the world below. Philippians 2:9-11. 
He is strong, our conquering hero, our Redeemer. Jeremiah 50:34
He created us, ransomed us and calls us by name. Isaiah 43:1.
He thinks about us all the time. Psalm 139:17
He calls us His sons and daughters. 2 Corinthians 6:18
He watches over us, provides for us and has given us angelic beings to guard us in all our ways! Psalm 91.

Well, we’ve only touched the tip of the iceberg in remembering all God is, and has done for us, but this last Sunday of the year we can look back and see how merciful and kind the Lord has been to each one of us and how He has sustained us. And as we read His word we see He has promised to continue to bless us as we keep our eyes fixed on Jesus. 

Hebrews 12:2 NCV Let us look only to Jesus, the One who began our faith and who makes it perfect…

So let’s give God all the glory with all our hearts today for our God truly is the one and only Great God, awesome and mighty, worthy of all our praise and thanks, our faithful God who loves us.😊 Amen.

OUR GOD IS THE GREAT GOD - PART 1

Psalm 95:3 NKJV For the LORD is the great God, And the great King above all gods.

Children have a simple faith, uncomplicated by the world’s thinking and Jesus said to have the faith of a little child in order to enter His kingdom, so I thought it would be good to remind ourselves of how great and awe inspiring our God is through the eyes of simple faith.😊

Over the next couple of days I invite you to join with me as we look at some truths to jog our memories to help us appreciate all God is to us, in our here and now.

Our God is the only God. Psalm 86:10

God is good and does only good. Psalm 119:68 

God is present everywhere and all powerful. Jeremiah 23:23-24/Psalm 147:5.  

God loves us with an everlasting love and has drawn us to Himself. Jeremiah 31:3

God is for us, not against us. Romans 8:31
God is a generous God. He has given us everything we need to live a godly life. 2 Peter 1:3

God chooses to see us as holy and righteous if Jesus is our Lord and Saviour. Ephesians 1:4

Every now and again, if we can stop for a minute and think about each of those truths individually, and let them sink into our hearts afresh, I believe they will settle us down and give us His great peace, no matter what’s going on around us, because they remind us we have the ultimate back up and we’re not alone.

The lovely thing is we’re all invited into the very throne room of this great and awesome God and all because of Jesus.😊

Thank You Lord. Amen.

(PS: You might like to look up the references in different translations and let the Lord bless your heart as He ministers His greatness and goodness to you.😊)
