AWESOME GOD!

ARE YOU…
FILLED WITH AWE?
YOU ARE NOT LIVING IN
AWE IF…
You are bored easily
You tend to be unimpressed or ungrateful
You don’t enjoy seeing beautiful sunsets
You don’t remember the last time you looked up at the
stars
You aren’t excited to hear God speak or to speak to God
You spend a lot of time worrying or complaining
DEUTERONOMY 10:17, 20
“The LORD your God is…Lord of
lords, the great God, mighty and
awesome…Hold fast to Him.”
PSALM 47 & 48
“The Lord Most High is
AWESOME. He is the Great
King of all the earth…God
reigns above the nations…He
is the Great Lord.”
PSALM 113 & 114
“The Lord is high above the
nations; His glory is higher
than the heavens…Tremble, O
earth, at the presence of the
Lord…Praise the LORD!”
THE HEAVENS
ABOVE THE CLOUDS
AWESOME DESIGN
DID YOU KNOW?
There are between 100 and 170
billion galaxies in the observable
universe.
There are between 100 trillion and
a septillion stars (maybe more).
HUBBLE VIEW
STARS FROM ICELAND
ROMANS 1:20
“Ever since the creation of the world
God’s invisible qualities—His eternal
power and divine nature—have been
clearly seen, being understood from
what has been made, so that men are
without excuse.”
DID YOU KNOW?
Every hormone circulating in the
bloodstream will fit snugly inside the
appropriate receptacle. Imagine a wind
storm blowing all the mail for Chicago
down a five mile stretch of the Outer
Drive in that city, yet every letter and
package is able to sort itself out and
end up in the correct mailbox.
DID YOU KNOW?
Merely turning to speak to a passenger while
driving a car takes billions of neurons.
Every human body contains between 10 and 75
trillion cells. Every cell contains one billion
compounds. That’s 75 sextillion
(75,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) compounds per
person—among these are 5 million proteins. Each
cell has an assigned location, a lifetime role,
hundreds of complex tasks to accomplish, and each
cell is programmed to take care of its own needs
and coordinate activities with billions of other cells
in throughout the body every second.
DNA STRANDS
DID YOU KNOW?
Everything that transpires in the human body is
controlled by the 3 billion base pairs that make
up the 100,000 genes that form the 23 paired
chromosomes within the nucleus of nearly every
cell. The amount of information stored within a
single nucleus is equal to 1000 encyclopedias,
each with 1000 pages. Multiply that times 35
billion cells in the brain, not to mention the 10 or
more trillion cells in a single body, and the
amount of information moving about the body
each second becomes astronomical.
DID YOU KNOW?
It takes several million cells just to move a
finger.
Pound for pound, bones are stronger than
steel, yet they are much lighter for
mobility purposes.
It takes more than 50 muscles to make
facial expressions; 32 to smile; 12 to move
our eyes.
WHAT COMES WITH
AWE?
THANKFULNESS!
“Give thanks and proclaim
His greatness. Let the whole
world know what He has
done!”
-Psalm 105:1
Galatians 4:4
“When the time was right,
God sent His Son…”
LUKE 9:29-36
“As He was praying, the appearance of His face
changed, and His clothes became as bright as a
flash of lightening. Two men, Moses and Elijah,
appeared in glorious splendor, talking with
Jesus…A cloud appeared and enveloped them,
and they were afraid…a voice came from the
cloud, saying, “This is My Son, whom I have
chosen; listen to Him.”
GLORY & AWE
“When they saw Him,
they worshipped
Him…”-Matthew 28:17
HOW WILL YOU RESPOND?
1 JOHN 3:23
“We must believe in the name of
His Son, Jesus Christ, and love
one another, just as He
commanded.”
JESUS’ FINAL
COMMAND
“Go and make disciples of
all nations, baptizing them
in the name of the Father
and the Son and the Holy
Spirit”-Matthew 28:19
