August 12, 2009 God Is Great!
Today’s Bible Reading: Jeremiah 10, 11, 12; John 14
Scripture Focus:
Jeremiah 10: 6–7 Inasmuch as there is none like You, O LORD
(You are great, and Your name is great in might),
Who would not fear You, O King of the nations?
For this is Your rightful due.
For among all the wise men of the nations,
And in all their kingdoms,
There is none like You.
Observation:
Jeremiah just got through talking about the idols of the nations, how they were worthless to do either good or bad, since they were carved from trees and made with metal, but Jehovah, on the other hand, is living and powerful and able to act on behalf of his people.
Application:
I just had a huge answer to prayer today—one that I thought would truly take a miracle to accomplish. All I can say is, “My God, you are very great! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
Prayer:
Father God, you are so awesome. Remind me of this answer to prayer the next time I doubt your ability to work on my behalf! Help me to trust you in other areas, such as to further your kingdom.
