Sun.’s Devo - The Magesty of God

Read: Job 37:1-39:30; 2 Co. 4:13-5:10; Ps. 44:9-26; Pr. 22;13 After days of five men giving their wisdom on God, God speaks. He puts their speeches in the dust as he explains His majesty and the glory of His creation and how it works. Every drop of water, every animal, every storm, everything is carefully and explicitly planned by the great creator, God and everything has a purpose. Like an orchestra, God tunes, directs and plays the music of the universe in perfect harmony. Truly what is seen is temporal and what is unseen is eternal. This great powerful God who made all the earth and raised up Jesus from death, will also raise us up. Paul describes the trials of life as “light and momentary troubles”. This is the same person that was beaten numerous times, thrown out of towns, etc. These trials, he said, are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs any trial we could meet. We learn in our Psalms that God knows the secrets of our heart. Lord, thank you that You so intimately know us and all our fears and shortcomings yet You have mercy and grace on us minute by minute.
