How Great Is Our God?….



I don’t think i can ever find an answer to this question, because every time i find an answer, he surprises me with another act that leaves me speechless and in awe.
Just as king David sang in Psalms ” Lord there is no good thing apart from you”, that’s how we can not boast in our lives because we have no life of our own and all we have belongs to God. If we know God is everything then we need to give him the glory he deserves. We need to realize he is the captain if our ships and we can be sure of safety, with no fear of storm not ship wreck.
Our God is great, he is the one who created the whole universe and is never limited by his creation. The only awesome God. Upon creation God gave us the gift of freewill and an option. We are entitled to our own decisions and must also face the consequences of our decisions. God is compassionate, merciful, gracious and abounding in mercy. He is always faithful even in our unfaithfulness.  
In our society today, we are always preoccupied with life and it’s challenges and we forget to think about God and his wonders. Even when we remember, it does not last for long. I think it’s time for us to acknowledge he’s God and he is a good God. It’s time we started thanking him for what he has done, what he’s doing and what he will be doing.
Do you know that the  galaxy…contains over 300 billion stars, and it is one of hundreds of billions of othergalaxies in the known universe that God has made?. Isn’t that awesome? The sun on the other hand is a million times the size of the earth. Incase you haven’t noticed, we are worshiping an unrivaled, uncontested God of all kind of might and power and glory and awe! There is none like Him, anywhere in all of creation!” since I was born and now that am getting old i have never seen the righteous forsaken nor their seed begging for bread. I have never seen anywhere in the scriptures where he is said to be weak or perhaps joked about his words. Whatsoever he says he will do, he does so much more. There’s just no failure with him.  Sometimes, trusting isn’t just enough, it’s abiding and believing in him that shows how great he is. 
“As great as he is in power and holiness, it is the greatness of God’s mercy that truly leaves us in awe.”
I love the song “How great is our God by Chris Tomlin.” There are many reasons why i love the song but the most important one is that he laid emphasis on the word “Great” in a simple way but with profound meaning. “How Great Is Our God” turns our attention to the greatness of God. It depicts the greatness, wonders, awesomeness​ of God.  Wondering how great our God is? Well, Our God is great in holiness, he is great in majesty, great in royalty, great in mercies, great in eternity, great in faithfulness, not only is he before and after time, he is in control of everything both great and small. There’s no one like our God, even the psalmist reaffirms this in Exodus 15:11 (KJV)  Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

How Justified Are You.... .

We are saved not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit"</strong></em> Total Justification by faith was Martin Luther's great spiritual and theological breakthrough. It did not come easily. He had tried everything from sleeping on hard floors and fasting to climbing a staircase in Rome while kneeling in prayer. Monasteries, disciplines, confessions, masses, absolutions, good works-all proved fruitless. Peace with God eluded him. The thought of the righteousness of God pursued him. He hated the very word "righteousness," which he believed provided a divine mandate to condemn him. Light finally dawned for Luther as he meditated on Romans 1:17, "<em>For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith</em>." He saw for the first time that the righteousness Paul ha...

No Place Like Home…

Home is anywhere you find peace and fulfillment, anywhere you are free to be yourself, express yourself and still be accepted. It could also be within the confines of a building, although not all the time. Growing up, i was a bit hyperactive and troublesome. I would go outside and look for trouble and when a fight starts, i would run back home where i know i will be safe and my brother’s​ would fight for me. To me, my home was my safe haven, my dad my hero, my mom my mentor and my siblings my best support system. It didn’t matter where i was, i would always want to run back home.  Over the years i have discovered that a lot of people do not feel at home in their homes, nor use their voices in their ​own homes. We must have all heard of the saying “Home is where the heart is.”right? For me, my home isn’t just a place where i eat and sleep, it’s also a place where i find peace, a place where i don’t have to hide what I feel and how i feel. It serves a greater purpose than simpl...

Greener Grass....(The Secret To Happiness)

<a href="http://whitneyibeblog.files.wordpress.com/2016/12/wp-1482219406291.jpeg"><img title="wp-1482219406291" class="alignnone size-full" alt="image" src="http://whitneyibeblog.files.wordpress.com/2016/12/wp-1482219406291.jpeg" /></a> We need to search our lives for any areas where we've subscribed to the "Greener Grass" mentality and renounce these in the name of Jesus. We need to  spend time looking for the many blessings God has put in our lives. We <strong><em>will </em></strong>find them, and the day we do will mark the first day in our lives that we are truly happy.  This however, does lead to an interesting question: If the "greener grass" mentality only leads us to discontentment and sin, and if this spirit of covetousness is at the root of all ev il, then why do we always seek the "greener grass" that we don't have? The answer is simple: It is...
