| How GREAT Thou Art Every now and then we need to be reminded HOW GREAT GOD IS! The word “GREAT” can be defined as considerably above average. It really conveys preeminence. It conveys being the best. We now use the term GOAT to say one is the GREATEST OF ALL TIME. I find as I write that for me to use GOAT to describe God seems weird but using today’s word – GOD IS THE GREATEST OF THE “GOATS.” He has been and always will be the GREATEST OF ALL TIME!! There is none like Him – no one and none even close to being like Him. As you consider Jeremiah 10:6 know that the greatness of God is seen throughout the Bible. Here are just a few verses. Deuteronomy 10:17 “For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, 2 Samuel 7:22 “Therefore You are great, O LORD GOD. For [there is] none like You, nor is there any God besides You,” Psalm 95:3 For the LORD [is] the great God, And the great King above all gods. Psalm 145:3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable. Psalm 147:5 Great is our Lord, and of great power: His understanding is infinite. Psalm 35:10 All my bones shall say, “LORD, who is like You, Deliveringthe poor from him who is too strong for him, Yes, the poor and the needy from him who plunders him?” By the way, what are your BONES saying today as you consider God? Not only with your bones but with your whole being I cry out HOW GREAT THOU ART!! There is no one like our GREAT GOD Recognizing God’s greatness should impact our praise as 1 Chronicles 16:25 says, “For the LORD is great and greatly to be praised. It should also impact our prayers. When Nehemiah began to pray He acknowledged that he was praying to his GREAT and awesome God. Nehemiah 1:5 And I said: “I pray, LORD God of heaven, O great and awesome God. It should also impact us as we face struggles. As Nehemiah and the people rebuilding the wall faced enormous challenges Nehemiah told them to REMEMBER THE LORD – who is GREAT and awesome. Our verse to DATE the Word on October 6 (10/6) is Jeremiah 10:6. It says, “In as much as there is none like You, O LORD (You are great, and Your name is great in might).” How does the fact that God is GREAT impact your life?
