‘God is…’

Day 1: Colossians 1:15-17 - INFINITE - Self-existing - “Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation, for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him. He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together.”

Day 2: Romans 11:33 - IMMUTABLE - He has no needs – “Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways!”

Day 3: Psalm 33:6 - OMNIPOTENT - All-powerful – “The Lord merely spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars were born.”

Day 4: Isaiah 46:9, 10 - OMNISCIENT - All-knowing – “Remember the things I have done in the past. For I alone am God! I am God, and there is none like me. Only I can tell you the future before it even happens. Everything I plan will come to pass, for I do whatever I wish.”

Day 5: Jeremiah 23:23, 24 - OMNIPRESENT - Everywhere – “‘Am I a God who is only close at hand?’ says the Lord. ‘No, I am far away at the same time. Can anyone hide from me in a secret place? Am I not everywhere in all the heavens and earth?’ says the Lord.”

Day 6: Deuteronomy 32:4 - GOD IS JUST - Unchangeable – “He is the Rock; his deeds are perfect. Everything he does is just and fair. He is a faithful God who does no wrong; how just and upright he is!”

Day 7: Psalm 145:8, 9 - GRACIOUS - Spares the guilty - “The Lord is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. The Lord is good to everyone. He showers compassion on all his creation.”
