Key Verse: Psalm 144:3 

“Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and His greatness is unsearchable.”

Oftentimes, we talk about the greatness of God, we talk about how we see his greatness in the majesty of the mountains, in the mystery of the deepest oceans, and even by looking at the creation of man. However, how often do we allow God’s greatness to lead us to worship. That is what the psalmist encourages us to do here. He encourages us to worship God because of how great He is. Other than God’s creative power, how else do we see His greatness? 

We also see God’s greatness through His character. He is perfectly just, merciful, wrathful, loving, and graceful all at the same time. His character is perfect. Perhaps the most obvious way that God shows us His greatness is that He came to earth in the form of a man and died for us. He is great because He did not leave us in our sin, but came down here and laid down His life to rescue us from it. That great act alone should motivate us to worship Him every day! He is greatly to be praised! However, the author also says that his greatness is unsearchable! What does this mean? This means that God’s greatness is something we can never fully comprehend. He is great in ways that go beyond our ability to understand. This in fact is just another reason to worship Him! He’s so great, we cannot even find out all the things that make Him great! As a result of all of this, take a few minutes today and send a prayer of thanksgiving up to God, because He truly is great!
