That’s a good question! How would you answer it?
This morning as I sit here trying to formulate my answer, I am reminded of the many examples of God’s greatness in the Bible. Let me share a few:
- In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth
- He saved Noah during the flood
- Parted the Red Sea
- Had the sun stand still
- Delivered Daniel from the lions
- Helped David kill Goliath with a stone
- Blinded an entire army
- Raised Lazarus from the dead
- Stopped a storm at sea
- Orchestrated a jail break
- Opened blind eyes
- Healed a blood disease
- Turned water to wine
- Defeated death
“The Lord is your God. He is the God of gods and the Lord of lords. He is the great God. He is the amazing and powerful fighter. To him everyone is the same. He does not accept money to change his mind. 18 He defends widows and orphans. He loves even the strangers living among us. He gives them food and clothes. 19 So you must also love them, because you yourselves were strangers in the land of Egypt. 20 “You must respect the Lord your God and worship only him. Never leave him. When you make promises, you must use his name only. 21 He is the one you should praise. He is your God. He has done great and amazing things for you. You have seen them with your own eyes.” Deuteronomy 10:17-21 ERV
I guess the next question is this. How big do you need God to be?
“He made heaven and earth. He made the sea and everything in it. He can be trusted to do what he says. 7 He does what is right for those who have been hurt. He gives food to the hungry. The Lord frees people locked up in prison.8 The Lord makes the blind see again.
The Lord helps those who are in trouble. The Lord loves those who do right. 9 The Lord protects strangers in our country. He cares for widows and orphans, but he destroys the wicked. 10 The Lord will rule forever!” Psalm 146:6-10 ERV
What are you facing that is too big or too hard for God to handle?
There is a whole lot of craziness going on in our world but none of it is bigger than our God. All of it combined isn’t bigger than our God!
“God said to Moses: I am the eternal God. So tell them that the Lord, whose name is “I Am,” has sent you. This is my name forever, and it is the name that people must use from now on.” Exodus 3:14-15 CEV
As big and as great as God is He stills gives us an open invitation to come straight to His throne and find help in our time of need!
How big is God? He’s big enough to handle all my worries and concerns. My God, and my Father is big enough to handle it all!
