Luke 9:43 |
"And they were all amazed at the majesty of God..."
Luke 9:43a NKJV
The
above photograph I took a couple years ago at Sea World in San Diego,
California. I am just amazed just how an animal such as a whale could jump this high out of the water. Here, not only one, but three at the same
time in the same way. I am sure some scientist could give a scientific
explanation as to how a whale can make such a jump as this. But the thing is, it is by
God’s creative design which enables a whale to perform such a stunt. He gave
them the ability to swim with such power and speed in order to leap like that. The
way I see it is that this is just one of the many testimonies to the majesty of
God in nature. Take a look at a giant Sequoia Tree in the photo below.
These trees, not only are the massive in size, but live over 2,000 years. This
is another testimony to the majesty of God in nature, and the list goes on
and on in things such as a delicate flower or the vastness of outer space.
Another
testimony to the majesty of God is in how can He redeem and change such a wretched
sinner such as myself? Not only me, but everyday He is saving souls and
changing people’s lives. While it is true that there are a lot of hypocrites in the church, people who appear Godly on Sunday and the rest of the week dance with the devil. Never the less, there are many people who were once drunkards, now sober.
People, who were once full of hate, now love. Others were gay, now happily
married to someone of the opposite sex and not looking back. Today I would just
like for you to take a moment and reflect on the majesty of God.
Your beautiful photos, and your wise words have led me to ponder the majesty of God. And yes, indeed, Ken, He is really something to behold!!

DeleteThis is a great post. We had such a spew of bad news this week. I just felt like where do I start? I was reading in Ephesians and Paul wrote how God is able to do abundantly exceeding above what we ask. Now you mention His majesty. I'm so outta the dumps now! He is amazing and He is so capable to handle anything that life throws at us. Just gotta stop trying to fix His world : )
ReplyDeleteHi Karen. I am so glad you are out of the dumps now. His word sure does have a way of picking us up when we are down. Thank you for your comment and God bless
DeleteHi Ken,
ReplyDeleteWonderful pics!
Last night I watched the movie The Cross and The Switchblade. The testimony of Nicky Cruse by the preaching of David Wilkerson. I have read the book when I was a kid but watching the movie, even though it is an old one, was an eye opener to just how majestic our God is. The conversion of Nicky was nothing more than a miracle. Our God is awesome and He is mighty and all powerful. I am always amazed at the power He has, the power that He is!
Blessings brother,

Thank you child of God. I saw that movie a few years back and thought it was awesome. I love to hear peoples testimonies on how Christ changed their lives. They are a testimony to how great our God is. The wonderful thing is, Nicky Cruise is not the exception, but there are countless more.
DeleteBlessings,
Ken
