Job chapter 26, verse 14.

Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways.

And how small a whisper do we hear of him,

but the thunder of his power, who can understand?

What a great verse. And one of the many pictures we see in Job,

and we'll see this in every verse and the last chapters of Job. But one of the pictures in this book

of the greatness of God, of the unsearchable

majesty and mystery of God. Job describes all these different ways that God shows his power

in creation in the world by his power. he's still the sea. By his wind, the heavens

were made fair. That's Job 26, 12, and 13. And then you get to verse 14 and Joe says,

Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways. Like his glory in creation, we're just like touching the surface of the greatness and the glory of God.

How small a whisper do we hear of him?

We know, even in a revelation, that we know about God about who he is, we know so little because his power

is so great. He's infinite in all of his attributes. Like we in our finite minds have such a small

grasp on the greatness of God. He says, the thunder of his power.

Who can understand?

And this is a good reminder for all of us today in a way that leads us into worship.

And I want us to pray accordingly.

God, we bow before you today in prayer, in awe. And we confess and amidst all we know about you,

and we praise you for all your revelation of yourself to us. In creation, the way creation shouts your glory, your invisible power,

and eternal attributes are clearly seen being understood from what has been made around us.
