What are you doing?

Job 26: 5 “The dead tremble—those who live beneath the waters. 6 The underworld is naked in God’s presence. The place of destruction is uncovered. 7 God stretches the northern sky over empty space and hangs the earth on nothing. 8 He wraps the rain in his thick clouds, and the clouds don’t burst with the weight. 9 He covers the face of the moon shrouding it with his clouds. 10 He created the horizon when he separated the waters; he set the boundary between day and night. 11 The foundations of heaven tremble; they shudder at his rebuke. 12 By his power the sea grew calm. By his skill he crushed the great sea monster. 13 His Spirit made the heavens beautiful, and his power pierced the gliding serpent. 14 These are just the beginning of all that he does, merely a whisper of his power. Who, then, can comprehend the thunder of his power?”

God is beyond words. "These are just the beginning of all that he does, merely a whisper of His power." Just what can God do?! No words except that all things are possible for God.

Just who am I dealing with when I worship? Do I really know God? Why am I not afraid of what He can do? How can I be so blinded by the world? God, I need to see beyond, all of the incredible things you are doing! How can I continue my life without knowing what you are doing everyday? I need to be like a little chick, following close to the mother...

Dear God,
WOW. Everything is revealed before you, everything is practically dust in your sight. Nothing can step up against you. But Lord, actions are useless if I cannot see what you are doing! Your words are all that I have left! Also memories of what you have done for me! GOD, let me see. Just like Elijah's prayers for the other fellow to see beyond the army that surrounded the two of them. God, why not let me see? Why do I have to be born of physical eyes. Lord it is better to have spiritual eyes that can see you instead! God I am praying that you will let me see what you really are doing and let me be in AWE. Don't let words come out of my mouth that can describe what you are doing! I just pray that you will let me see what you are doing so that I can be filled with faith, and wisdom of the God whom I serve.
In Jesus Name Amen.
