Our Fiery God

Our Fiery God

“The LORD [Yahweh] is robed in majesty… Mightier than the thunder of the great waters, mightier than the breakers of the sea—the LORD on high is mighty.’ Psalm 93:1,4,5

 

Glory and praise be to You, O Yahweh,

the Majestic One,

the Mighty One,

the Magnificent One.

Your power is beyond comprehension,

far greater than the might of a Tsunami rising out of the ocean,

sweeping inland for miles,

destroying all in its path.

Or the power of the great waves in a storm,

pounding at cliffs, wearing them away.

You simply spoke to create the sun:

huge,

hot,

high in the heavens,

spewing out tongues of flame

millions of miles into space,

burning at temperatures beyond our comprehension,

emitting heat and light year after year,

century after century,

millennium after millennium;

you control its heat, its light, its life.

And the sun is but one of billions of stars

in billions of galaxies

that you spoke into existence

and sustain by your mighty power.

“Lord, we lift your name on high,

we magnify you in your majesty,

we rejoice in your might,

we exult in your perfection,

we fall to our faces in awe.

Praise be to your name. Amen.
