“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
Isaiah 55:9 (NIV)Today I read something that grabbed my attention in a powerful way. The author Mark Batterson stated that "In the beginning, God created us in His image (Genesis 1:27). We’ve been creating God in our image ever since. That’s our ancient error. " Wow! Have I been trying to fit God into what I can understand? Have I been making Him like me when He is WAY Bigger?
I know without a doubt that I serve a good and mighty God. I serve a powerful God. I serve a God that intervened in human existence to make a way for my sins to be forgiven through the birth of Jesus through a virgin Mary(Luke 1:26-38). A God who would sacrifice His Son on the Cross (John 3:16) so that I might not experience condemnation. I serve the same God who rose Him on the third day giving us victory over death ( 1 Corinthians 15:55-57) .
My God and your God is bigger than any problem or circumstance. He is our Wonderful Counselor and Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6) He is the great I AM (Exodus 3:14). He is biggen than the darkness that shadows this earth because He is the light of the world( John 8:12).
Lord, I never want to box You in because You are too big for that. Thank You for being great Lord. Thank You for being might and strong to save. Thank You for being God. I love You. In Jesus name. Amen
