How Great Thou Art!

When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation!
And take me Home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration,
And then proclaim: “My God, how great Thou art!”

Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee!
How great Thou art, how great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

(Carl Boberg, 1885)

Introduction. There is no being greater than, the Almighty One. Along with His heavenly angels. We sing our acclamation!

We proclaim to Almighty God our praise. To God we offer our worship. All our days! “How great Thou art, how great Thou art!” (Carl Boberg, 1885)

The most precious gift Almighty God ever gave. The most wondrous blessing of all. Our Creator, God created our very existence. On our knees. We pray to the One who gave to you and to me, life. To the One who breathed into us our very existence. We pray words of love. Words of honest acclamation and songs of praise. God Almighty deserves our songs of praise and our prayers of worship, always. For His greatness and Almighty God’s mighty power.

Why? Oh! Why? Did our Creator make us? Almighty God has always a divine purpose and a perfect plan. God does nothing without designing and planning for it first. When our Creator made you and created me. Almighty God made us in His image. In the very likeness of our Creator, God, are we made.

God is love. Therefore, as His very reflection. We also are love. We are created by God. To love Him with all our being. And to be loved by God in return. This is the essence of our life. This is the very reason of our life.

Scripture Readings: We love because He first loved us. (1 John 4:19, NIV)

Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. (Deuteronomy 6:5, ESV)

At the center of our very being — GOD’S LOVE. To love God Almighty and to be loved by Him. Now, for me and for you. There is never a better way to live. There will never be a greater reason to praise and to worship God. Love is the reason we live. Love the wisdom behind all our decisions. Love are the poems we speak to our loved ones. Love is the source and the foundation of our life. Love is the path of faith we follow. Love is the food that nourishes our heart and our soul. God is love. We are the very reflection of God. We are love. We love God with all we are, with all we do and with all we say.

How great is the Almighty One?

Almighty God is beyond human comprehension. The Almighty One is infinite in measurement and in space. Our Heavenly Father is eternal in time and in love. He is without beginning. God will have no ending. Almighty God is not only Great er. He is beyond human imagination.

Scripture Reading: “For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways My ways,”
declares the Lord.
“As the heavens are higher than the Earth,
so are My ways higher than your ways,
and My thoughts than your thoughts. (Isaiah 55:8–9)

I once read a humorous saying. Which speaks words of wisdom and hidden gems of truth.

For a person to know God completely in this life. Is like an ant learning arithmetic. (Dan Lee, 2015)

For it makes no matter how much we immerse ourselves in the Holy Word of God. You and I shall never fully know of or about our LORD. God is beyond human reasoning. Almighty God is beyond our understanding. It is our responsibility. Our joy to do our very best to learn of God. Through diligent and daily Bible study. Every word we read. Reveals who God is. God is love.

Scripture Readings: Because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions — it is by grace you have been saved. (Ephesians 2:4–5, NIV)

Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. (1 John 4:8, ESV)

Almighty God is so powerful. God spoke His mighty Word and the entire universe came to be. Out of the power of His word. All which exists and will ever be, came into being. All the planets, stars, comets, moons and meteors. Came to be. From the powerful and mighty word of God. Our creator God made all there is from nothing. From the word of His mouth and out of His love. All there is and ever will be. Created by the Almighty One.

Yes, we as the ant. Cannot and will never be able to perceive. The might, the power and the wonder of Almighty God. As we stand in wonder. As you and I gaze in awe at the expanse of God’s ever-growing universe. We sing to Almighty God our praise. We pray to our Heavenly Father our thanksgiving and our worship. All our days. We proclaim God’s majesty and His grandeur.

Believing in God’s greatness and His power. Leads us to praise and to worship Him.

Even though you and I will never fully know and understand God, our Father. What we do know, and we do believe is God loves us so. God is love. Our Heavenly Father loves us beyond measure. God’s wisdom provides for all our needs. God, and God alone is worthy of our praise, of our worship.

Scripture Reading: Praise to the Lord

Lord, You are my God,
I will exalt You and praise Your name,
for in perfect faithfulness
You have done wonderful things,
things planned long ago. (Isaiah 25:1, NIV)

Almighty God is greater than, any other. He is King of kings, Lord of lords.

Scripture Reading: On His robe and on His thigh, He has this name written:

King of kings and Lord of lords. (Revelation 19:16, NIV)

Almighty God is King of kings, Lord of lords. God’s Holy Word makes it perfectly clear. Almighty God alone is truly worthy of our worship and our praise.

This title proves God’s absolute dominion over all there is. Overall, there ever will be. Stirs in all His worshippers. Gives a deep and personal sense of respect and awe, within our hearts. As we read of God in our Bible. A true sense of wonder at the blessing He has given us.

As we pass control of our lives over to our Father. Giving to God His rightful place. First, always first in our lives. Our God, our King, our LORD is brought ever closer to us. We walk in a personal companionship with God every day.

Every day. In every way. We praise God in prayer, in song and in music. All our days we worship Almighty God with all our words, all our actions and all our prayers.
