The God we serve is so much bigger and better than our minds can conceive. If you try and comprehend how immense God must be in order to have spoken the worlds as we know them into existence, your mind will quickly short circuit, with smoke billowing out of your ears. His power and might are incomprehensible.

There are stars in the universe so massive, they dwarf our sun in comparison. And to think that the Creation account mentions their formation only as an afterthought; ‘He made the stars also,’ Genesis 1:16. There has never been nor will there ever be a problem too big for God to solve. God is all powerful.

God’s power was on full display when after three days and three nights, as Jesus lay lifeless in a tomb, He was resurrected, death to life, now to live forever. God is all powerful in the physical realm and in the spiritual.

He is not only all powerful; God is better than anything we can imagine. If we were to try and remember some of the greatest enjoyments over our lifetimes, we would undoubtedly recall some wonderful experiences. Perhaps your mind took you to a trip in which you saw some spectacular scenery; or a social event where you connected with some old friends. Each of us has enjoyed some wonderful experiences in our lives.

However, the very best of those enjoyments, even all of them put together, will pale in comparison to the incredible experience of God’s presence. Why? Because God is so much better than anything our minds can comprehend.

Paul referred to a passage in Isaiah that looked to the joy of the coming Messiah when he wrote in…

1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

For the Old Testament Jew, there could be no greater experience than being part of the appearance of the Messiah. Throughout the years, Jews longed for the coming of the Promised One, and even wrote songs expressing their passionate expectation.

The all-powerful God whose might is indescribable, is also the God who delights in pleasing His children. When the Lord Jesus went to Heaven to be with His Father, He went to prepare a place for us. With limitless power and might, and a burning desire to bless us, He has been preparing an eternity the likes of which words or even dreams could not do justice.

We have a God who loves us in a way that is far beyond anything we can begin to imagine. Praise His name!
