He Is Awesome!

28Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, 29for our "God is a consuming fire" Hebrews 12:28-29 (NIV)

  • As a Christian I must not forget just how awesome God is, and have a continuous sense of awe for the work that He does.
  • Referring to someone or something as awesome, and also referring to God as awesome, puts God alongside the things of this world. Actually, for me, I need to reserve the word 'awesome' for God alone.
  • Because of  a human, worldly nature, I'm quite vulnerable to many things. To humble myself is to realize that on a regular basis and to come before our Mighty God and accept Him with reverence and awe. Accepting the fact that with God anything is possible, but without God nothing is possible.
  • I am completely an empty vessel without the LORD, and can only be filled by Him. 
  • All powerful God, is the only One who can shake the heavens and the earth.
  • This scripture is a reminder to me that my faith in God, and my lessons from life and from the word, are not things to be taken lightly, but instead are things to take very seriously and have a great respect for.
Dear LORD, thank you for my life, a gift that could only have come from You! May I have a greater sense of awe and profound reverence for You, and may I exemplify that in serving You. I wish to have a true and heartfelt fear and deep respect for You LORD, all of my days. ~Amen
