Romans 11, part 2 - Oh the Depth!

Apparently, my good friend Jenilee and I wanted to keep the last part of Romans 11 for today. I have to say, I am not surprised...we are kindred spirits. hehehehe

Here is a beautiful piece of scripture that write the glory of a sovereign, holy, omniscient (all knowing) and omnipotent (all powerful) God!

Romans 11:33-36 (New Living Translation)

³³ Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways!

³⁴ For who can know the Lord’s thoughts?
Who knows enough to give him advice?
³⁵ And who has given him so much
that he needs to pay it back?

³⁶ For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen.

We serve a powerful, wonderful and loving God. Who are we to question Him when we know His word says he is working all things for our good. Remember

Romans 8:28 (New International Version, ©2011)

²⁸ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

When you understand that then we can know we worship a God who is not far away. He longs to be with us and to have a relationship with us. Everything good is to bring glory to Him!

I love this song, "Oh, the depth of the riches!"

Oh the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God
How unsearchable are His judgements and His ways past finding out.


For who has known the mind of the LORD?
Or who has been His counselor?”
who has first given to Him
that it should be repaid?”


For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things,
For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things,
to whom be glory forever
to whom be glory forever and ever
Amen


We worship you, All knowing sovereign Lord
to whom be glory forever
to whom be glory forever and ever
Amen

We worship you, All knowing sovereign Lord
All glory All praise belongs to our God!
Belongs to God!

I hope you paid close attention to some of the images shown in this video. They really reflect what we have been studying.

Let's meditate on the depth of His riches today and
GET JOY!
