So, remember how we talked about God's moral attributes a couple weeks ago, and we looked at the verses that we can claim to show us that God really is all of those things? Well, we're going to do the same thing today, but this time with His natural attributes. Let's give these things some thought and be reminded of how great and wonderful our God really is!

Transcendent

This means that God is higher than we are and superior to us.

"...the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity..."
             ~Isaiah 57:15

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."
              ~Isaiah 55:8-9

Eternal

God never began to exist, and He never will end to exist. He has always been.
​
"Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God."
          ~Psalm 90:2


Infinite

God is not limited.
​​
"Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD."
            ~Jeremiah 23:24

Omnipresent

God is everywhere at the same time, something that is hard for us to even imagine.
​
"Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?"
               ~Psalm 139:7
"The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good."
              ~Proverbs 15:3

Omniscient

God is all-knowing.
​
"Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do."
             ~Hebrews 4:10

"O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether."
             ~Psalm 139:1-4

Omnipotent

God's power is unlimited. 
​
"For with God nothing shall be impossible."
           ~Luke 1:37
​

...with God all things are possible."
            ~Matthew 19:26
​

"Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:"
             ~Jeremiah 32:17


Imminent

God is above us and higher than us, but He also operates within His creation.
​
"One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all."
             ~Ephesians 4:6

"... I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit..."
            ~Isaiah 57:15

Immutable

God never changes. 
​
"For I am the LORD, I change not..."
           ~Malachi 3:6

Which of these attributes stand out the most to you today?

Thank you for sharing, Sophia! An attribute that stands out to me is the next to last one you shared: imminent. God is above us, yet He is also here with us and even became man so that He could have a relationship with us!! He is so good!

Yes, that is a great one, and one I hadn't really thought about in that significance until I'd learned about it in a Bible class a few months ago! It's amazing that He would choose to be with us!
