If someone asked you to describe Who God is, what would you say? The best way to describe Him is to say what God says about Himself. Let’s take a look at the Bible and see what the Truth says about God.
A few years ago, I invested several weeks researching the Bible to find out how God describes Himself. I looked through the Strongs Concordance and looked for every verse that had a description of God. When you see this list you are going to be amazed.
God is…
Abba, able, above, acceptable, admired, always, am, ancient of days, anointed, attentive, bearing, beloved, blessed, chief, clean, confirming, creator, defence, delighted, desired, determined, devoted, deliverer, direct, doubtless, established, eternal, everlasting, exalted, excellent, faithful, famous, father, favourable, feared, first, forgiving, fortress, friend, full, giving, glorified, glorious, God, good, gracious, great, guide, hallowed, help, helper, helping, high, holy, honorable, honored, hope, innocent, invisible, Jehovah, joy, judge, just, kind, king, known, lawgiver, light, lifter, light, living, lofty, lord, love, magnified, majesty, maker, merciful, mighty, mindful, nourisher, omnipotent, one, perfect, possessor, potter, power, pure, quiet, redeemer, refuge, repairer, restorer, revealer, rewarder, rich, righteous, rock, salvation, same, saviour, shepherd, shield, spirit, stedfast, strength, strong, tried, true, upright, victory, witness, wonderful and worthy.
Wow! What a description. God is so awesome, isn’t He? Since He cannot lie, everything on that list is true.
If you truly want to KNOW God, then I recommend reviewing this list each day and meditate on one of His descriptions. Allow God to reveal Himself to you through His Word. Look up scripture verses for each and repeat them over and over again throughout the day.
When you meditate on His Truth about Himself, a clearer image of Who He is will begin to develop in your mind. You can actually be able to SEE God for Who He is and have a relationship with Him He has always wanted with you.
In your own words, how would you describe God? Please share your comments below.
