It’s wonderful to spend time focusing on what kind of God I
worship, and my commentary boiled it all down well:
God’s NAME is the
greatest, and we need to do our best to make Him look good to nonbelievers.
God’s THRONE is the highest, yet “He is willing to
stoop down and pay attention to mere mortals who do not always honor Him … He
sees us and knows our every need” … He sits on a throne of grace.
God’s LOVE is the
kindest. “The love of God and the grace
of God made our God stoop to our level, especially when He sent Jesus Christ to
become one of us and die for us on
the cross. He condescended to become like us so that we might become like Him
… God is able to do the impossible.”
God is FOR us –
He grafted us into His family!
God is OVER us and BEFORE us. “God went before Him people, and everything
in nature trembled at His presence and
obeyed … God removes obstacles
and takes us through the hopeless
places.”
God is a REIGNING God. The victories He gives us are opportunities for
us to tell others about Him.
God is a LIVING God. He speaks
to us. He sees us and what we do. He hears our cries. He receives
our worship. He works for us.
He carries us and walks with us.
“We become like the God we worship, and as we worship Him, He transforms us, giving us ears to hear
His truth and eyes to see His Word and the path He wants us to walk.”
God is the GIVING God. He will protect us and provide for us.
God is the God who deserves
our praise. For all He is to us, we’d better start now,
because eternity won’t be long enough to tell Him all He’s done for us!
Father God, thank You for this morning of relishing who You
are and what You do for me, as undeserving as I am. Thanks for reminding me that Your love for me
makes my life worthwhile. Help me to help others see You this week.
Your Brother In Christ,
Gary Ford
