The Almighty One. How Great Thou Art!!!
God Almighty. On our knees in worship and in awe. Before the One who has no equal.
How Great Thou Art!
O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made.
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.When through the woods, and forest glades I wander,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees.
When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur,
And see the brook and feel the gentle breeze.(Carl Boberg, 1885)
Introduction. The Almighty One. Our Creator. The One who created the ever-expanding universe. To Him in worship. We kneel.
The Almighty One. God the Father indeed has no equal. I find it completely impossible to wrap my heart and my mind around who God is. I simply accept, love and worship the One who loves me so. God Almighty is infinite. The Almighty One has no beginning. Our Heavenly Father will have no ending. This to us brings such comfort. For God is there when we need Him the most, always.
Where do we go to find the meaning and the truth of and about God? You and I seek out Almighty God in His Holy Word.
Our Almighty God is above all. Our Heavenly Father has no equal.
Scripture Reading: To whom will you compare me?
Or who is my equal?’ says the Holy One. (Isaiah 40:25, NIV)
These are the words where God Himself says no other has an equal. When God says this, we listen, and we believe.
Let us ponder for a while on Isaiah 46:5. God Almighty is asking us if He has an equal. Firstly, we contemplate on who God is. God is LOVE. God, our Father does not merely love. God is LOVE. God’s very nature, His attributes and His character is LOVE. God Almighty loves more than, any other person is capable of loving. There is no man, woman or child our Father does not LOVE. God is LOVE.
People love. Yes, this is true. Our love for each other. A mere reflection of God’s love. For God is LOVE.
Who? Who? Who is Almighty God? Will we ever truly know who God is?
We in our ignorance. You and I admit not fully understanding who our Heavenly Father is. This, though God realizes. Almighty God has provided for us a solution. The Holy Word of God is where He reveals Himself to us. In the Scriptures. God writes to our heart of His attributes. Telling us the wonder and the beauty of who our God is.
This brief article is insufficient to examine all God’s wondrous attributes. Let us examine a few.
God Almighty is Faithful. Our Heavenly Father is infinitely unchangingly true.
Scripture Reading: Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; He is the faithful God, keeping His covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love Him and keep His commandments. (Deuteronomy 7:9, NIV)
In this world where even our nearest and dearest ones let us down. You and I get such sweet and everlasting comfort from God’s never changing faithfulness. No matter how sad we are. God Almighty is faithful and true, All His promises of love. God fulfills. All our Father’s words of support. He keeps. All our Lord’s words of strength. He provides to us, always. For, our Father is faithful, true and unchanging.
As you and I walk in the Holy and loving presence of Almighty God. Believing, genuinely believing this this attribute. God is faithful. Our Father’s faithfulness never changes. This attribute is our foundation for true confidence in the One who loves us so. This attribute brings to you and to me. The courage to serve Him.
There are days when we lose sight of this most precious gift. When our time of heartbreak. Blocks out God’s faithfulness. It has not gone. We have simply forgotten.
For how could the One who created us? For how could our infinitely faithful Father allow us to suffer alone? The wondrous and loving answer. HE DOES NOT. God is LOVE. God is infinitely faithful. Our Heavenly Father is unchangingly faithful. He is only a prayer away. We bow our head in prayer. God in Heaven is patiently waiting.
We once more are comforted. Once more God Almighty gives to you and to me His peace. You and I, once more are at peace.
Scripture Reading: You will keep in perfect peace,
those whose minds are steadfast,
because they trust in you. (Isaiah 26:3, NIV)
Peace so sought after in this world of chaos and turmoil. Peace a whisper in our days of tempest. Peace our vanishing mist in our meadow of sadness. Peace, God’s soothing and calming peace is just a prayer away.
In fact, in Philippians 4:9, 1 Thessalonians 5:23, and again in Hebrews 13:20, He is called “the God of peace.” Jesus Christ is also seen as the One who gives peace. Jesus said, “My peace I give to you.” Notice He says, “My peace.” (John 14:27, ESV)
In such a sad time. Where people in many places view peace as only an absence of war and conflict. Take for instance, the United Nations’ Peacemakers in Syria. Armed troops daring people to break the peace.
For God Almighty peace in our life. Our heart and our soul is to be filled with God’s love. We are to live in humble obedience to the Holy Law of God. For God’s peace is a gift of love. God’s peace is a life of righteous living. This peace is brought into our life. Because no matter what happens on the outside. God’s peace lives withing our heart, always. For God’s peace. Is as God is — UNCHANGING.
Scripture Reading: The Lord blesses thee, and keep thee:
The Lord makes His face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The Lord lifts up His countenance upon thee and give thee peace. (Numbers 6:24–26, KJV)
