How Big is Your God?

My soul will make its boast in the Lord; the humble will hear it and rejoice.
O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.
I sought the Lord, and He answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Psalm 34:2-4 NASV



Many of us really struggle in our concept of God. We all tend to have a mental image of who God is based a little on what we've read from the Bible and more on what we've experienced of Him in our life. The end result is that some of us have a perception of God that is much too small.

Our relationship with God and our worship of Him is primarily based on who we believe Him to be and the amount of confidence we have in Him.

Is your God too busy for your problems?

Does your God enjoy only one kind of worship style and music genre?

Is your God ready to do big things in your life only when you've been a "pretty good Christian" (whatever that means)?

Our God is so much bigger than we can possibly imagine! The Psalmist exhorts us all to magnify the Lord. He doesn't mean make God big (you can't make an infinite God big). But we can see God big!
