0:02 We wanna honor God because he sees everything.0:10 You were born with a plan and a purpose. He's the god of all things possible. He's the god of all0:22 miracles.0:52 Welcome to Grace Grace with Naina Michelle. I'm Michelle Humphreys.0:55 And I am Naina Keegan. Welcome to our broadcast today. Today we're gonna be talking about just being in awe, being in absolute awe of who our God is. You know,1:08 even just the definition of the word awe is the fearful respect and sense of wonder in the presence of a superior power.1:20 Isn't that awesome? Just to be just amazed and in awe of the superior power which is our omniscient, omnipresent, amazing creator1:32 who made the heavens and the earth and every single thing in it. Let's remember to just be in awe and remember who we're praying to. Remember who had the1:44 ability to save you, that Jesus is the way to heaven, that that alone in what he had done for us. He knew what he was going to suffer and he did it1:55 anyway. Should we just not even stop and be in awe of that alone? And the fact that because of that, we get to be saved and we get to spend eternity in2:07 heaven with our father. There's so many things that we need to be in awe of, and I think sometimes we need to go back to that and not just pray some random prayer, not2:17 just act like it's ho or it's just on your to do list to rattle off some words, but let's just be in awe of who God is when we're praying.2:28 Amen. I love the scripture in Exodus 15 11. It says, who is like you among the gods, oh Lord? Who is like you majestic in holiness, awesome in praises,2:40 working wonders? I remember when my mom just had gotten saved and I had been saved for a long time but I had just gotten into church2:52 as we were starting to go to church together. She got saved, my dad got saved and we became groupies. I'm serious. We were groupies of, I don't know if you3:04 guys know, Phil Driscoll. Do you know Phil Yeah. Yeah. The trumpet player and singer. Oh my goodness. Like if he was in concert, we would drive to wherever. I mean, have seen3:16 him all over the country.3:17 You can pull him up3:17 by you too. He has all these praise songs and and seriously, I would wear out the cassette and it really A lot of his songs are about being in awe of God like, oh magnify the3:29 Lord, I exalt thee, like he has all these like you know you're just lifting up the Lord in awe. Jesus what a wonder you are,3:41 You know and and and I mean I can just remember and it's so precious now because now my mom has been with the Lord for 2 years and I think about those times like when I hear those songs and the3:53 other day we were at a restaurant and my grandson David started just really dancing around and it was to trumpet music and I said, you have my DNA. And so I started playing some Phil4:04 Driscoll whenever we got back in the car and he loved it. And you know we just need to be in awe and I remember those times with my mom and we would he would sing Hallelujah which means4:16 1000 praises. Just being in awe of God and I I remember just grabbing her hand and we would be crying and just sitting in the presence in awe of God and it was4:28 so sweet and so precious to know he's so big. If we think about the the vastness of our God, we wouldn't4:40 worry about anything. We wouldn't. We can we we just have to remember to be in awe of him. Seriously. Yes. I know there's a scripture4:50 in Acts that I love. A deep sense of awe came over them all and the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders. You know, when you're in that awe, in that5:02 presence of the Lord, when you're just, you know, just just you can't, there's no words, and you just feel that presence all around you, That's the when the presence5:14 falls, that you're in a position for miracles. Like, that's where the miracles are manifest, in the manifest presence of God. When you are in a place of awe and and and it's like a reverence,5:26 like a place of humility, when you just cannot even fathom or imagine the the God of whom all things are possible, and just think of his names, you know,5:37 Emmanuel, Elohim. Just think about the names God Almighty, the God our healer, Jehovah Rapha, all the things, all the names of our Lord, and and and just that what each 1 of them signifies5:49 who he is. And, you know, if you ever just Googled, you know, just just just go and and just say the names of the Lord, the names of God. And here they are all behind us, many of them. And, you know, we we think6:01 about do we actually know what all that means? That he is absolutely everything. If we actually ever just sat and thought about anything you ever need, he's the God of that. He's the God of6:13 everything. He's the healer if you need healing. He's the God who provides. He will he will cause, you know, everything you touch to prosper and succeed. He's the God of restoration. What do you need6:25 restored in your life? You know, he's the God of the wayward and the prodigal. Every single thing we need, we could be in awe of the God who wants those things for us, who sent his son to die for those things6:37 for us. If we could just sit and be in awe of who God is and know that we know that we know that he is above it all. He's got it all. And if we can pray6:49 for him to restore us to the joy of our salvation. When you were first saved, if you've had an experience where all of a sudden it was like for me, it was like things became in living7:00 color. Like, it's like the lights came on. It's like it's like hearts were gone, and and things just changed. I was a transformed human being, And when sometimes we7:12 just get so lost, you know, was so excited about reading my bible and so excited about God. And as time goes, it's like, are we still in that place? Do we go back and7:24 just ask for that restoration of that joy in that place where we were when we were first saved where we just marvel at his goodness and just be in awe of his presence and all7:36 that he has done for me and taken me through. And and I'm sure if you sat and recounted that, you would be in awe. And sometimes we just need to do that and remind7:47 ourselves who he is. Right.7:50 And and a lot of times like when like the Bible says, I will enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise. So there's a protocol sometimes like we're not feeling awe8:01 because we've been beat up by the cares of life. But if we will stop what we're doing and begin to thank him for what he's done8:13 and begin to praise him for all that he is, then before you know it, we have shifted into that holy awe. And that awe is when it's almost like8:25 you can't move. Yeah. And and or maybe you begin to get holy tears or Travail. You know, or or begin to travail. But that is such a special place and that's really where you can hear from8:37 God when you get that realization of the awe of God. And when we come back, we're gonna talk more about that.8:44 The world needs to be reached with the message of Jesus. And that is the mission of Grace Grace with Naina and Michelle. To see people's lives change with the saving power of Jesus Christ.8:56 When you donate to Grace Grace Ministries, you're also reaching orphans and the underprivileged throughout the world, as well as the United States.

And today, we're discussing the awe, the awe of God and just who he is. And, you know, the Bible says, oh, the depth of the riches and9:58 the wisdom and knowledge of God. How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable are his ways. Like, we can't even possibly describe, because there's no words for10:10 it, how magnificent he is. And like you're saying, when you get into a place of praise, sometimes like I'll just be I'll have my bible, and then I just realize I can't even sit here. I gotta get on the floor. I've10:22 just gotta put my face down. I've just gotta be crying out to him because I just, you know, I when I look at all he's done in my life, no matter what you're going through, like, it doesn't mean it's always easy, but I10:34 have seen him do such miraculous, amazing things in my life that that if we sometimes when you're tempted to complain about the cares that are you're going through right10:46 now, if I can stop, if we can just bring ourselves back to that place and go, this is who you are, this is what you did before, And it doesn't matter if you don't do 1 more thing for me. The fact that I10:58 have salvation because you died, you paid a debt you didn't owe for for me. You didn't owe that and yet you took it all. When we just stop11:10 and realize that, you know, that my I I there wasn't enough of anything for me to ever pay back the the debt I owe for my sins, all of us as11:22 sinners, there's nothing we could ever do that God had to send his son who paid a debt for all of that. He didn't do 1 thing wrong, and yet he knew. And if you were the only 1,11:34 the only 1, he would have gone through every single thing he went through, the most unbelievable, horrific, horrendous death on a cross if you were the only 1 he would have done that just for you. And11:46 just the awe of knowing that, that we have eternity, that we have we have a bridge now. We get to go and be with Jesus in heaven, with Jesus in heaven11:58 at the right hand of his father because of what Jesus did for us. And that is just awe. Awesome, and we should be in awe just for that alone, and12:09 remind ourselves of that all the time.12:11 Amen. And talking about the cross, you know, if we ever get a glimpse of the power of the blood that was shed on that cross by Jesus Christ,12:24 we won't be12:25 we will be undone. 1 drop, 1 drop is more than you could ever imagine. 1 drop of that blood of Jesus has the power to overcome, to heal, to cure, to12:36 deliver, to sanctify, vindicate, redeem, and justify. It's everything. What do you need today? What do you need? Oh my gosh.12:47 Amen. The power the power12:49 your You feel it here today. The awe12:50 of God, the beginning of wisdom is the reverential fear and awe of God. Let's be restored to that awe of God today. If you have gotten so13:02 familiar with God that you're like, I got this. I don't I don't need to go to church because I've got it. Then you have lost your reverential fear and awe of13:14 God. And let me just say, we all do that sometimes. But God, we're not living in a time when we can just, you know, we're never living in a time where we can go without that reverential fear of God. But let13:26 me just say, that is so important in our lives. If if we can be restored to the reverential fear and awe of God and and get before the Lord and13:37 remember who he is and remember that it was a it was a high price he paid. He stepped out of heaven. He died for your sins. He already knew what they were gonna be13:49 and he and he is it it he's not shocked. He's not surprised. You haven't gone too far. You can go to the king of kings, the lord of lords,14:01 the 1 who stepped out of heaven and died for your sins. And that blood, that precious blood is now your inheritance that you can grab it and you14:13 can today have your name written in the lamb's book of life. Yeah. And you can today be set free. I don't care what it's from, name it. Mhmm. There's nothing.14:25 If you truly believe that God is who he says he is, there is nothing that he cannot do. Nothing is impossible with God. And so14:37 remember who he is. Be restored to who he is. Go back to the things that you did when you were first saved. And if that means that you ran all around with14:48 some you know praise group or whatever, go back to that. Go back to what you did at first to that original reverential fear of15:00 the most high God. Bow before the Lord. Kneel before the Lord your maker for he is15:07 God. Mhmm.15:08 Praise God. Right? Nothing15:10 nothing nothing can ever separate you. And just knowing that from him, nothing nothing can separate you from the love of God, the call of God, the miracles that God has in15:22 store for you, nothing. Think about that. Nothing. What can separate you from his love? There there's nothing you can do. You don't have to earn it. You don't have to be good enough. There is nothing you can do that can15:34 earn that love, but no matter what, nothing can separate you from that. Isn't that amazing? Just think about that. And think about the last time you were actually in awe of anything. Like, to me, I will15:45 just marvel at a sunset, at at just the the the how God how just even we're we're here in the United States. I know we're broadcast all over the world. But even in this15:57 United States, how different the terrain is from 1 state to another. We have mountains and oceans and deserts and every kind of beautiful landscape and and and16:09 everything God made, and every animal, every single thing that is created, and how every 1 of us have this amazing brain and DNA, and how everything works. Think about your16:21 eye, and how that that brings everything you see into your brain and and and all those intricacies. And how can anyone ever just think that was a big bang or some some theory or16:33 some, you know, it's some some Darwin theory. It's it's We have to understand that that could only take the most brilliant of creators Amen.16:44 To to to create everything. He knew where the oceans needed to stop and how much sun we needed that we wouldn't burn and how much gravity and all the things that are just so unbelievably16:56 perfect that that that we should be in awe of all of these things all of the time. And just take a look and don't miss it. Don't be so busy and don't be so hurried in your17:08 life that you miss out on the beauty of God's creation and the beauty in your own life and and just enjoying things in life no matter what you're dealing with. Find some time to just sit with him and enjoy the things17:20 that he's made and put in your life. And and for me, having this new little grandbaby in my life has just I'm seeing things in the way he marvels and the awe that he has,17:31 and that's what God wants us to do. And we're gonna talk more about that when we come right back. Stay right there.17:37 The world needs to be reached with the message of Jesus. And that is the mission of Grace Grace with Naina and Michelle. To see people's lives change with the saving power of Jesus17:48 Christ.

So join us in the great commission18:35 today. Give now.18:38 Welcome back to Grace Grace with Naina Michelle. We are talking about the reverential awe of God. Just being in awe of what he does. And you know, if we're in awe18:50 of God, then we're probably not walking in sin in any way because if you truly put the Lord in his rightful place, you're not gossiping, you're not19:02 wanting to go out and do whatever, you're not wanting to you know cheat on your spouse, you're not wanting to you know get drunk, you're not wanting to do all these19:14 other things you know. Remember who Jesus is and and I think that sets your life on a course that like the Bible says like19:25 even like if we're remembering who God is, the Bible says go about everything without arguing or complaining. We set it all aside. It's like God's got this. He'll tell19:37 them. You know what I mean? It's like you're you you want peace. You know people talk about being zen. Being in awe of God. That's what peace is is when19:49 you get in the presence and let me just say the Bible promises you that if you will praise the Lord, the Lord will come down and20:00 inhabit those praises. That means he will live in those praises. So if you feel like I don't feel God, I don't think you know, that doesn't happen to me, you sit down, you get by yourself, you put on20:12 some praise music and you start thinking about what God is and who he is and get in that presence of the Lord and sing to him by faith. I promise you at first20:24 you won't feel a thing But after a while, the bible promises and I'm counting on the Lord to make this true to you that when you start praising the Lord,20:36 the Holy Spirit is gonna come down wherever you are. Trust me. Try20:40 it. It's true. And you know, again, said that's his address. Praise if he inhabits the praises of people, I like to say that is his address, is praise. And sometimes when you don't even know what to pray20:52 or how to praise, I have started I just started this simple thing with with the alphabet, like start with a and think of all the words that you can describe God with. You're awesome. You're amazing. And I just I'll go21:03 through. And it's amazing how many words you can come up with to describe the awesomeness of our God. And so just to you know, when you when when you're frustrated and you don't even21:15 know how to pray, and that might seem like a mechanical type method, but before long, your spirit just catches, and you're just praising him, worshiping him. And it's a sacrifice. It says bring a sacrifice of21:27 praise, because sometimes that's when you're doing it, when you don't feel like it, you don't feel you feel like everything's wrong, and you did everything wrong, and God's not there, and21:34 And you don't even feel like he's listening.21:36 He's disappeared from your life. He's been so quiet, but honestly, that's when he's doing his best work, because he's just sitting there waiting on you. He knows he's got it, And when we know he's got it, when you get to21:46 that place where I'm just gonna choose to trust you anyway, I'm gonna trust you anyway, just like the Israelites had to trust him when they were standing in front of a wall of water and and knowing that21:58 the the enemy was right there chasing them down. You know, God has got the plan. He knows everything you need. And when you trust him like a child and are just in awe of who he is22:09 and the miraculous things that he can and will do. And you can go back time and time again in your life and recount those things. And I remember 1 time, we you you knew a22:21 you had a friend, and I I only knew of her. I did not really know her at all. And she had gone through a horrific divorce, and then she was about to marry some guy. And22:34 again, I really didn't know her. I know I knew her to see her, but her not you know, we weren't it's not like I was friends with her or anything. I I barely, you know, even could spot her. But we were talking 122:46 time, and we were at this event, and she showed up with the new guy, and I did not even talk him. I didn't go by him. I didn't see him, and the Lord just gave me this word, like, and and she's so precious. She's such a22:58 precious woman of God. But anyway, he gave me this word about this man, and and that, you know, I started sharing it with Michelle. Go, she cannot marry him. This is like he's this, he's this, he's this. And I I did not23:09 know him at all. And so so she said, you sure? I said, how would I know? You know, she's like, well, I'm gonna share this with her. And so she did, and then she said she wants to call you about23:20 it. So when she called me, and again, we don't know each other, and I started saying he's this, he's this, he's this, he's this, and then I stopped, because in my spirit, I felt the Lord say, you already know23:32 this. She already knew these things. She was marrying him in 3 weeks. The wedding was all planned. Everything was ready, and then she just started to cry, and she said, you're right. This is all and it wasn't me. I did23:43 not know her. But you know what? When you think about how awesome God is that he she did not marry him. She did not go through at the wedding. And then fast forward, a year later, I happened to23:54 be on a trip to Israel, and she was on the same trip. And she came up to me and she said, everything you said happened. Everything that you said would happen happened. And24:06 when she broke it off, everything that he he had planned was coming forward and all the things that he really was was happening. And so that's the awesomeness of God who can just24:18 show up in your life and send somebody or use you to just go and and and just just he loves those people so much. He loved her so much that he did not want her going down24:30 that path. He didn't want her to marry this guy. He knew everything this guy was planning and how destructive it was. And so when we just sit and think about how awesome he is and when every day when we can say, use me24:42 God, use me, you know. And again, when it when you know that she knew I didn't know her, she knew I couldn't have possibly known any of these things, when God sends someone to talk to you or has a word for you, it can24:53 change everything. Amen. So we just need to remember and be in awe and pray. And pray. God, time and pray.25:02 Amen. Well, let's just pray. Lord, we thank you that all over your presence is showing up because the holy awesome25:14 awe of God is is falling. The glory of the Lord is falling just like in Solomon's temple. The glory of the Lord will fill the place Lord Shekinah glory.25:25 The awe of God on everyone who's praying now crying out to you Lord. Believing that you are and that you are a rewarder of them that diligently seek you. Now25:37 God, we ask you that you would flood their homes, their their whereabouts, Lord, wherever they are with the presence and holy awe of God. In the mighty name of Jesus,25:49 we pray.25:50 Amen. Powerful. We are so grateful that you are watching this broadcast. Share it with your friends. We are all over YouTube.
