CGMI Above Only 3 December 2017, Devotional by Rev. M.E. Benson-Idahosa - Celebrate God’s Greatness

Topic: Celebrate God’s Greatness — Sunday December 3, 2017.

Text:  Psa. 104:1 (NIV), Psa.126:3 (NIV), Psa. 147:5 (NIV), Psa.145:3 (NIV)

Praise the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, you are very great; you are clothed with splendor and majesty. The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy. Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit. Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom.

Our God is great and He deserves to be praised and celebrated greatly. In the King James Version, our last text above says, “great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.” His greatness extends beyond what our minds can ever reason or imagine. Nothing and no one can measure up to His unimaginable greatness. As such, He deserves our unparallelled worship, adoration and gratitude.

Psalm 92:5 (NLT) says, “O Lord, what great works you do! And how deep are your thoughts.” By His great works and His deep thoughts, God has severally done marvelous things in your life and so He deserves your unreserved praise, worship and adoration.

God wants us to declare His greatness and He wants us to praise and celebrate Him for how great He is and for how He has manifested His greatness in various ways in our lives this year and even in the past. After Jesus cleansed a man who had been possessed with demons, He said to him: “Go home to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He has had compassion on you,” Mark 5:19 (NKJV). Rejoice, sing, dance, thank Him and bless His name like never before. Let there be great joy in your heart. Testify of His greatness. We can never celebrate our God’s greatness enough, for He is greater than we can even praise Him for. As you praise and celebrate God for His greatness, He will show you even more of that greatness. You will continue to have bountiful testimonies of God’s greatness.

Prayer Focus: You are great, O God, and my life is filled with testimonies of Your greatness! I celebrate Your greatness.
