How Can We Praise Him If We Don't Know Who We Are Praising...

God calls us to worship Him, adore Him, and praise Him. How can we do this if we don't know who we are worshiping, adoring and praising? Do you know how many names our God has? The list is endless, right in scripture. I am struck with these today:

Our God is:

WOW!!!!!!

If you are battling with something today, if you are weak, if you are tired, if you are full of joy, if you are in sin, if you need refreshment, if you are discouraged, if you are weary, if you lack endurance, if you feel like you're losing the race... Call on these names of the Lord! He will lift you up, He will provide! How amazing, how awesome, how wide is our MOST HIGH GOD!!!! Have you seen Him today? Have you looked to the heavens, have you lifted your hands to the skies, have you seen Him in your homes, have you seen Him in creation, have you seen Him? It's hard for me to imagine that you haven't. If this is so, please stop, take a moment, breathe and thank our King for being sufficient, and for fulfilling all He's promised. He is EVERYTHING!!

IHS,
Cammie

How wonderful is that!! Yes, Gos is that and so much more. And the best part is that you can put "MY" in front of all these names for God. Amen!
"Indescribable, uncontainable, all-powerful, untamable, incomparable, unchangeable".
