God is Great
“For the Lord your God is the God of gods and Lord of lords. He is the GREAT God, the mighty and awesome God. GREAT is the Lord! He is most worthy of praise! No one can measure His greatness."
Deuteronomy 10:17, Psalm 145:3 (NLT)
What makes God great is a question that can stir the soul, and the answers reach deep into Scripture, creation, and personal experience. Here are some key answers and reasons, rooted in Biblical truth and spiritual reflection.
Sovereign Lord
"O Sovereign Lord! You made the heavens and earth by Your strong hand and powerful arm. Nothing is too hard for You! How great You are,O Sovereign Lord! There is no one like You."
Jeremiah 32:17, 2 Samuel 7:22
"The Lord your God is among you, and He is a great and awesome God. How great is our Lord! His power is absolute! His understanding is beyond comprehension!"
Deuteronomy 7:21, 10:17
"For You, O Lord, are supreme over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods!"
Psalm 97:9 (NLT)
"Great is the LORD! He is most worthy of praise! He is to be feared above all gods!"
Psalm 96:4 (NLT)
The clear claim of Scripture is: the Most High God is both the Creator and Sustainer of all existence. From this we recognize God as the mighty Architect of the universe!
GOD IS GREAT
"For the house which I desire to build, is great: for our God is GREAT above all gods. Though no one can build a house for Him because He inhabits the heavens and beyond ..."
2 Chronicles 2:5-6
But one of the twenty-four elders said to me, “Stop weeping! Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the heir to David’s throne, has won the victory. He is worthy to open the scroll and its seven seals.” Revelation 5:5 (NLT)
John’s vision in chapters 4 and 5 is at the heart of Revelation. It is in essence a visualization of the Lord’s Prayer: “Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”
Through Jesus’ faithful witness and sacrificial death, God’s kingdom will be fully realized as the "King of Kings and Lord of Lords" wins complete and final victory over His enemies, establishes His authority, and takes up His visible, physical reign on this earth as He does now over the invisible realms of heaven.
