Category: NASB First Person

I must acknowledge His Being to be unquestionable and past dispute.

The heavens are telling of Your glory, O God, and their expanse is declaring the work of Your hands; Psalm 19:1(NASB) and Your eternal power and divine nature are clearly seen and understood through what has been made. Romans 1:19-20(NASB) So that they are fools without excuse who say, “There is no God”; Psalm 14:1(NASB) for surely there is a reward for the righteous; surely there is a God who judges on earth, Psalm 58:11(NASB) and in heaven too!

I therefore come to You believing that You are and that You are the powerful and bountiful rewarder of those who seek You. Hebrews 11:6(NASB)

Yet I must own His nature to be incomprehensible.

I cannot discover the depths of God; I cannot discover the limits of the Almighty. Job 11:7(NASB)

Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, and His greatness is unsearchable. Psalm 145:3(NASB)

Who can speak of the mighty deeds of the LORD? Or can show forth all His praise? Psalm 106:2(NASB)

And His perfections to be matchless and without compare.

Who is like You, majestic in holiness, awesome in praises, working wonders? Exodus 15:11(NASB)

Who in the skies is comparable to the LORD? Who among the sons of the mighty is like the LORD? Psalm 89:6(NASB) O LORD God of hosts, who is like You, O mighty LORD? Your faithfulness also surrounds You. Psalm 89:8(NASB)

There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord, nor are there any works like Yours. Psalm 86:8(NASB) For You are great and do wondrous deeds; You alone are God. Psalm 86:10(NASB)

No creature has an arm like God, or can thunder with a voice like His. Job 40:9(NASB)

And that He is infinitely above us and all other beings.

You are God and not man; You do not have eyes of flesh, nor do You see as a man sees. Your days are not as the days of a mortal, nor your years as man’s years. Job 10:4-5(NASB)

As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are Your thoughts higher than my thoughts, and Your ways than my ways. Isaiah 55:9(NASB)

All the nations before You are like a drop from the bucket, or a speck of dust on the scales; and You lift up the islands like fine dust; Isaiah 40:15(NASB) they are as nothing, and are regarded by You as less than nothing and meaningless. Isaiah 40:17(NASB)

Having thus engaged my heart to approach God. Jeremiah 30:21(NASB)

I must solemnly address myself to that infinitely great and glorious Being with whom I have to do, as one who is possessed with a full belief of His presence and a holy awe and reverence of His Majesty, which I may do in such expressions as these:

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come! Revelation 4:8(NASB)

O You alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth. Psalm 83:18(NASB)

O God, You are my God; I will seek you earnestly; Psalm 63:1(NASB) my God, and I will praise You; my fathers’ God, and I will extol You. Exodus 15:2(NASB)

O You who are the true God, the living God, the one only living and true God, 1 Thessalonians 1:9(NASB) and the everlasting King! Jeremiah 10:10(NASB) With your redeemed people I confess your great name: “The LORD is my God, the LORD is one!” Deuteronomy 6:4(NASB)

And may I thus distinguish myself from the worshipers of false gods.

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, they are vanity and a lie, the work of man’s hands; Psalm 115:4(NASB) those who make them will become like them, everyone who trusts in them. Psalm 115:8(NASB) But the portion of Jacob is not like these, for the Maker of all is He, and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance; the LORD of hosts is His name; Jeremiah 10:16(NASB) God over all, blessed forevermore. Romans 9:5(NASB)

Their rock is not like my Rock, even the enemies themselves judge this; Deuteronomy 32:31(NASB) for he is the Rock of ages, GOD the LORD, who is an everlasting Rock, Isaiah 26:4(NASB) whose name is everlasting and whose remembrance is to all generations, Psalm 135:13(NASB) when the gods who did not make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under the heavens.
