Often, we mention the name God in our conversations and in prayer: but have we ever thought of that name: God?(Job 33:4)
With every due respect, I can say:
- God is who is indefinable, limitless, without age,beginning or end. Revelation 1:8
- He his all powerful,loving and plenteous in mercy. Psalm 103:8
- He executes perfect judgement and justice with no respect to persons,race nor creed. Job 37:23; Psalms 89:14; Isaiah 9:7
- He his the ever-living creator and there is no other God besides Him. Deuteronomy 4: 35&39
- God is more than human understanding and expression.Isaiah 55:8-9
- Above all, God dwells with the lowly and humble in heart; never with the proud and arrogant. Isaiah 57:15
- God the awesome one does great and unsearchable things and He his far above all His works we call awesome.Job 5:9; Job 36:26
At this time, I would love to correct an error; many have discussed about God in wrong ways. One of them is to say that His ways are mysterious and cannot be known.This is not true. (Job 32:8)
A mystery can be said to exist over a situation, circumstance or person that cannot be understood and may never be understood in any way. But God can, that was why He gave us the Bible and all that we see around us, but we simply ignore this because we just don't want to look.
If we say God is a mystery, we are deeply wrong as He has consistently expressed His person in creation. He has shown His manifold wisdom and power in what we see. What we see is an expression of the nature of God even evident in our very own selves.(Psalms 19:1-2)
To say that because we do not understand how God make or creates does not confer the title of mysterious on Him. Why? He said my ways are not your ways and as the heavens are higher than the earth so are my ways. He has shown us why we cannot understand some things because If He did try to explain to us; our frames and minds cannot and would not comprehend how and that is no longer a mystery ( Isaiah 55:8-9)
So, God isn't a mysterious being who has laid standards and requirements that cannot be met. They cannot be met if He were mysterious; but He isn't.
As we search the scriptures, I pray our God of light and awesome wonder reveal Himself more to you and me in ways words can never express.
God bless you.
