A guest minister delivered God's word at church today and the minister challenged the congregation:
When you are at the altar and praying to God, don't spend most of the time telling God your problems; tell God who He is!
He said that telling God who He is shifts the atmosphere, ushers in God's presence, and reminds you of His power.
While the unknown can make you feel unstable, focusing on what is known about God brings strength!
Jesus is the Rock on which we build our lives. He keeps us stable during times of shaking.
Below is a Bible word list that describes who God is. I wrote about each of these words in a 3-part devotional series called 'My God is Awesome.'
I hope these words will center your heart on who God is. I recommend reading them aloud and I believe they will increase your faith in prayer:
