Ok! So in summary: God is so far BEYOND AWESOME the no uttered words can describe/define/qualify The ESSENCE of The Creator!!!

Who Is God?

So, in meditation on The Word – God is The Source of ALL things that He cannot be defined in relation to anything else or He would not be God! We see this also in the things that the Bible says about God.

OUR GOD IS Indescribable!!!

Creation speaks of God’s Glory

Paul in Romans 1:18-19 says that what is known about God is plain because God has made it plain to us. In the very next verse Paul makes it clear that Creation plainly shows us God’s power and divinity. Furthermore he says that it leaves us without excuse.

20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.Romans 1:20

God’s invisible qualities are extraordinary but according to Paul they are clear to all. Yet the sad truth is that humanity, although we knew God, we “neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him” (v21) and we “exchanged the truth about God for a lie” (v25). Creation speaks volumes about its creator: His eternal power and divine nature are seen and understood from what is made. David also speaks about this in Psalm 19 as he claims that creation pours forth speech declaring the glory of God:

The Heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; nightafter night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them.  Yet their voice goes out into all the Earth, their words to the ends of the world. Psalm 19:1-4a

It really matters that God is supreme and that the glory of God is clear from the world around us. If God be God, then what have we to fear? An understanding of the character of God (even when we cannot get our heads around Him), transforms our perspective on life. It makes a difference to our times of loss, struggle and suffering. It makes a difference to where we place our trust and our hope. It makes a difference to what we do with our time, our money and our energy.

In the solar system, Man is! With telescopes and space craft, we are yet to identify any species like Man.

Yet, no Man has seen God:

So, What do we worship? God!!! In the Old Testament, God is unique, sovereign, and unchanging. He differs from Greek gods, whose faults and quarrels cause events. His unchanging nature is hinted at by His names.
