The Majesty of God



Psalm 96:3 “Declare His glory among the nations, His wonders among all peoples.”

Have you ever weighed in the mind and considered the majesty and awesomeness of Almighty God? Think about this list of God’s attributes:

(1)   God is Spirit. While He is personal Spirit who touches each individual life, He is also an infinite Spirit, inhabiting every place, filling heaven and earth and reaching beyond the farthest star. Psalm 139:7-8 says, “Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.”
(2)   God is eternal. He has existed forever. Psalm 90:2 says, “Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever You had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.” God was before time began and shall remain after time ends.
(3)   God never changes. Malachi 3:6 says, “For I am the Lord, I do not change.” God doesn’t evolve or learn; He is complete and perfect and His counsels never change. Psalm 33:11 says, “The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart to all generations.”
(4)   God is infinite, eternal, and unchangeable in His being and in His power. Jeremiah 32:17 says, “Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You.” To grasp even the smallest inkling of God’s immenseness, think of our entire universe as a tiny grain of sugar on God’s finger. While this still doesn’t accurately depict God because it implies that He is finite, it does give us an idea of His magnitude.


When we catch just a glimpse of God’s Majesty, we can so nothing but respond in continual praise! Today, take time to dwell on the awesomeness of our God, and praise Him for His majesty. Glory be to God!
