He is preeminent above
all things
Our Father God has ownership over us, the world and all
things outside our world. The apostle Paul declared He is; “One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in
you all” (Ephesians 4:6).
Considering God is all powerful we may tend to fear Him like
a child would fear a powerful father. However, God is not fallible as an
earthly father. He is a loving God, a good God, and He is just. In every way He
is perfect! “His love for us endures forever” as the words to a contemporary
praise song says.
“But God , who is rich
in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were
dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been
saved)” (Ephesians 2:4, 5). Ho! Even though we aren’t worthy because He is
we must give Him all our praise and worship!
