September 8 Review: Who is the God we Worship?


God is Creator.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1

God is Unchanging.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17

God is Mighty.
But God made the earth by his power; he founded the world by his wisdom and stretched out the heavens by his understanding. Jeremiah 10:12

God is Patient.
 The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. Psalm 103:8

God is Forgiving.
As far as the east is from the west, so far he removes our sins from us. Psalms 103:12

God is Love.
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.1 John 4:16

God is our Savior.
For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior.He will take delight in you with gladness.With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs. 

Questions for Reflection:

  • How have you known God as Creator, Unchanging, Mighty, Patient, Forgiving, Love and as Savior?
  • What is another quality of God that you have discovered in life or in scripture? 
  • You are invited to leave your thoughts in a comment.




For those of you in class with us September 8, this is different than Bob Lindsey's lesson. I can't duplicate his awesome class here, but I want to point you towards God as He is revealed in scripture.
