Awesome Majestic Splendor

Job 37:22 He comes from the north as golden splendor; With God is awesome majesty.

After meeting with God, Job had a greater understanding of the authority and righteousness of the Lord. No longer questioning the decision of God, look how Job acknowledges and praises the sovereignty of God in the above verse.

There is none other that even comes close to the greatness of our awesome God. Likewise Moses declares:

Exodus 15:11
Who among the gods is like you, O LORD ?
Who is like you—
majestic in holiness,
awesome in glory,
working wonders?



The greatness of God brings inward strength, confidence and peace in the midst of trials, testing and temptation. When we recognize the goodness and glory of God we too will praise Him. After we have been to the throne of God, seen His glory and declared Him truly awesome, we will naturally want to tell others also.

Psalm 145:3-7
Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom.
One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts. They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works. {on the words of Your wondrous works }. They will tell of the power of your awesome works, and I will proclaim your great deeds. They will celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully sing of your righteousness.


Telling others about the awesomeness of God isn't a command in this context, but it is a result of personally experiencing the awesome greatness, grace and glory of the Lord!
