Ah, what a wonderful reminder came my way a couple days ago. I opened one of my Bible Study apps and right there was the day’s reminder.
Psalm 90:2, 4: “Before the mountains were born, before You gave birth to the earth and the world, from eternity to eternity, You are God.” [HCSB]
As I read that verse, I thought about the greatness of our God. Have you ever stood on a mountain and looked out at God’s glory seen in creation? Perhaps you are like me and love to stand at an oceans shore and consider how vast the waters are? Maybe you see Him in the beauty of flowers or hear Him in the laughter of children. Maybe you even consider His greatness shown to us in the Scriptures.
Colossians 1:17: He is before all things and in Him all things hold together.
Psalm 147:5: Great is our LORD, and abundant in power, his understanding is beyond measure.
Malachi 3:6: I the LORD do not change.
Psalm 33:6: By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
Isaiah 46:9-10: Remember the former things, those of long ago, I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me. I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.
Deuteronomy 32:4: The Rock! His work is perfect, for all His ways are just; a God of faithfulness and without injustice, Righteous and upright is He.
Psalm 145:8: The LORD is gracious and merciful; Slow to anger and great in lovingkindness.
Revelation 4:8: Holy, Holy, Holy, is the LORD Almighty!
I guess we can understand why Paul included this doxology in his glorious letter to the Ephesians: Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work with us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. [3:20]
Yes, Forever and Ever. Amen
