Who Is God?

On tough days sometimes we need a little reminder of exactly who God is, and just how capable He is in handling everything that concerns us. He has said in His word that to those that order their conversation in a way that honors Him He will show the salvation of God! How many of You want God to show up big in your life? Then give Him a thank offering!

"He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me; And to him who orders his way aright I shall show the salvation of God." Psalm 50:23 NAS

Oh Lord God, God who made the heavens and the earth. How awesome is Your name! You are not just Lord, but my Lord and my God. I am not an orphan, I am chosen by You to be Your child. You are not just Father to many, but You are my Father, the One who has known me from before the foundations of the worlds. You are Abba, the One who predestines us to be Sons and Daughters, who adopts us as Your own and loves us unconditionally. You are the One who accepts me just as I am. You are the One who sees everything and understands me, because You made me. You are the One who is full of mercy and compassion. You are my Father, the one loves me and will do anything for me! You’re the One who has promised to never leave me nor forsake me. You consider me the apple of Your eye and Your delight.

Father, You are the Creator God, the One who made the heavens and the earth and all that is. All that has ever been. You are the God who speaks and it comes to pass. You are the God that speaks and acts. You are the same forever. You are the unchanging God, the same yesterday, today and forever. You are The Almighty, the Ancient of Days, the Alpha and Omega, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and my faithful, covenant keeping God.

You are the Rock of Ages, my shield and exceedingly great reward. You are the God I can call on, the One who hears and stops to listen to Your children. You are the God whose hand is long enough to reach out to us no matter where we are.

You are the Creator who never forgets Your creation. You are the God who holds the worlds in Your hands, who hung the stars in the sky, who knows each one of them by name. Forgive my small thinking! You are so, so big! You are the God who exalts His Word more than You exalt your name. You are the powerful God, the Most High, who delivers Your people and rescues us from every fear and foe. You are the God who parted the Red Sea, the One who makes a way where there seems to be no way. You are the One we can depend on, the Great and Mighty God, the One who knows all things and is an ever-present help in time of trouble. You are the God who is unable to be fully understood, Your qualities so vast, Your knowledge immeasurable and Your character so expansive. There is no way to measure You. There is no other way to describe You except wonderful, majesty and awesome to behold. Your ways are so beyond our ways. Your thoughts are so above mine. I am left undone when I consider Your beauty!

You are Lord of all the earth. You are the Lord of Hosts. King of Kings and God above all other gods. Your name, Lord Jesus, is the name above every other name that could ever be spoken. Your name is above every name that could ever be conceived in the mind and imagination. Your name is sweeter on my lips than any other name.

You are my God, clothed in light. Clothed in glory. Everything about you speaks of honesty, integrity and holiness. No one has ever been or will ever be like You! You are the great warrior of heaven, the Commander of Angel Armies, the God who fights for the defenseless, who intercedes for us, the God of our freedom who delivers us from the hold of sin and helps us live victorious. You are the One who tears down walls that divide, who destroys the plans of the evil one and who reigns as the King of Kings. You make the heavens and the earth your footstool. You reign in Supreme Authority over all the earth.

You are merciful and compassionate, a holy and loving God. You are the miracle working God who speaks and does not change Your words. You are the light in the darkness. You’re the God who rescues us from the pit, the prison and the poorhouse. You are the God who redeems time and restores our losses. You are the God who blesses me because You care for me. You are my confident, my conqueror, my protector.

You are the King above every other king; so pure and holy that you cannot be judged. You are the God who defends those who are truthful, my vindicator, the just Judge of heaven.
