[Music] who is God to you how do you see the Lord what's his role in your life or rather where have you placed him in your heart does he occupy your whole heart or does he have a fraction of your heart I wonder in your mind does the Lord occupy a significant amount of time in your thoughts or does he struggle just to get you to think about him for more than 5 minutes in the day who is God to you I encourage you to see the Lord for who he truly is God is nothing
to play with he is all powerful and omnipotent meaning that he is Unlimited in his power and in his authority God is omnipresent and that means that he's in all places at all times he's a sovereign God the great I am so whatever we desire God is the I am of that if it's protection God says I am your protection should you need to be rescued God says I am your rescue you see God is the owner of cattle on a thousand hills Heaven and Earth are his Matthew 1:23 says behold the Virgin shall conceive
and bear a son and they shall call his name Emmanuel he is Emmanuel meaning that God is with us he is the father to the fatherless and he's a husband to the Widow he is Jehovah El Shai our Bountiful supplier Jehovah Rafa is his name he is our peace and our righteousness so I'll ask you again who is God to you I encourage you to let God's power power and his presence let it permeate every cell of your body from the crown of your head to the souls of your feet when you accept the Lord
Jesus Christ into your heart you're never alone he's with you every step of the way you're never powerless with God on your side scripture says in 2 Corinthians 12:9 but he said to me my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses so that the power of Christ May rest upon me the Lord is the architect of our lives and the Chief Cornerstone therefore he is the answer that we are looking for and the hope that you and I are
seeking who is God what a question right well to answer this question we need to start by looking in the word of God what does the word of God say about who God is 1 John 4 verse 8 says he who does not love does not know God for God is love 1 Corinthians 10:13 says no tempt ation has overtaken you except such as is common to man but God is faithful and then 1 John 1:5 says this is the message which we have heard from him and declare to you that God is light and
in him is no Darkness at all numbers 23: 19 says God is not a man that he should lie nor a son of man that he should repent has he said and will he not do or has he spoken and will he not make it good Psalms chapter 116 verse 5 says gracious is the Lord and righteous yes our God is merciful and finally Psalms 84:1 for the Lord God is a son and shield the Lord will give Grace and Glory so from these few passages of scripture we can learn the following God is love
God is faithful God is light and in him there is no Darkness at all God is not a man that he should lie God is a son and shield and God is merciful Saints we serve a living God an awesome and all powerful God and I believe that God reveals himself in his word he is revealed in scripture so for anyone who can't answer the question who is God the first thing I would tell you is to receive Jesus Christ as your lord and savior because Jesus Christ is the way and the truth and the
life and no one comes to the father except through him the second thing that I would tell you to do is to open your Bible because inside the pages of the Bible you will find out who God is and one thing I love about the Bible is that it speaks about God in the present tense God is God is full of compassion God is light God is love because he gave his only begotten son Jesus Christ so that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life over and over again the Bible says
God is and we should be strengthened by this strengthened by the fact that our God is living Saints we need to praise and acknowledge God for who he truly is God is is he is love God is merciful god is The Great I Am God is Almighty we must respect his word and we must reverence him for his glorious work we must adore him for being so powerful but yet so tender and caring to us now let us pray my heavenly father the one who holds all of Creation in his hands I thank you for
your goodness I thank you for loving me sustaining me giving me life and above all God I thank you for caring so much that you gave your only begotten son Jesus Christ so that I may believe and not perish so that I may not be destroyed but rather so that I may be saved thank you almighty God for your precious son the precious lamb of God Jesus Christ who died on a cross for me so that today I can say that I am redeemed I am loved and I am set free by the blood of
Jesus Christ Lord you deserve all glory all the glory for your awesome power so great are your abilities that you measure Ed the waters in each and every ocean in every river and in all of the Seas I praise you because there is no limit to your abilities God there is nothing that you cannot do just as the book of Isaiah says whom did the Lord consult to Enlighten him who was it that taught him knowledge there is no one who can Enlighten you because you are the God of Light there is nothing that anyone
can teach you because you are filled with Infinite Wisdom your ways are higher than ours your thoughts are higher than ours you are a god of great power might and strength father I thank you for being faithful because if you turned your back on me where would I be without your love and mercy God where would I be without the precious sacrifice of your son Jesus Christ God where would I be I am here because of you and I praise you and worship you your word says that you are enthroned above the circle of the
earth and people are as powerless as grasshoppers before you angels surround your glorious throne and sing Holy Holy Holy to the Lord God Almighty there are no words to properly describe describe your awesome nature your infinite wisdom and your Supernatural power so today I offer up my praises to you there is nothing else that I can give you but my heart my praise and my adoration you are my unfailing protector who gives me an eternal home you are a God who watches over me and my family and I praise you for you have never let
