How can I describe God?

One day I was listening through my YouTube playlist and William McDowell started to sing this song that took me into a worship space for like the whole day. The song reads like this "How can I describe a God that's indescribable? How can I explain a God that's unexplainable? I'm at a loss for words...." But I wanted to answer the question, even though there are so many ways to describe God, the words are not even enough. Though there are so many ways to describe God, they don't amount to the way God really is. That is just the amazingness of God (yes, I realize that's not a word, but we'll manage it for the purpose of this write up!!).

I always love to praise God and call Him by all the things He is to me. I feel that is the best way to really worship Him. The Awesome God, Mighty God, Amazing, Loving, Faithful, Merciful, Compassionate God. Some have experienced Him as a Healer, Savior, Deliverer, Restorer, Redeemer. I know Him as El-Olam (Everlasting Father), Jehovah Tsidkenu (God my Righteousness), My Banner, Jehovah Jireh (God the Provider). He is known to be Bigger than the biggest, Greater than the greatest, Deeper than the deepest, Wider than the widest. He is All powerful, All knowing, I Am that I Am, I Am that Is! He's described as the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The God of Elijah, the God that answers by fire, the God of Daniel, the Covenant keeping God. A Strong Tower, The Mighty Man in battle, He can do all things, Be all things. He's undefeated, incomparable, unstoppable. The God that creates but was never created. He's not a man but created man even in His own image and His own likeness. He doesn't need my money to be activated or motivated to be who He is or what I need Him to be. He is, and He is God all by Himself.  The same, yesterday, today and even forever more.

Glory be to God!!

The Secret Place

Image
Believe it or not, children actually enjoy having time alone.  In so doing, they create secret hiding places to seclude themselves. For them, it's a time of forming mental images, where they can really see in their mind's eye. Most of all it is a place of safety and peace like the mother’s womb. Psalm 91:1 mentions the Secret Place. It reads like this in the KJV; " He who dwells in the Secret Place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." This Secret Place is not any ordinary Secret Place, it is the Secret Place of the Most High. In this Secret Place you are able to connect with God on a deeper than deep level. It is to be an intimate and private place with just you and God; no one else is invited! In the Secret Place you can hear God and experience His glory. In the Secret Place God can speak to you and show you clearly that which He desires you to see. A closer look into The Secret Place reveals that it is: 1. A place of molding- P

Heavy Metal

Heavy Metal The airport is not my most favorite place to visit, but it is necessary to be able board my flight to my next destination. At least for now until I get my private jet! I love the idea of traveling, but I dislike having to go through TSA check point. "Shoes off, remove your belt, put all phones and laptops on the conveyor belt!! Go through the detector and spread 'em!!" But the detector keeps going off. "What else do you want me to do TSA officer, strip down? God forbid!- Let me just tell you, it's going to keep going off because I'm wearing heavy metal.Yes, heavy metal. The belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, shoes of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit. You see, TSA officer, these I cannot remove. They are part of my spiritual apparel. I need these for the constant battle against evil. When Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins, He was buried and rose on the third day to ascend in
