We must reverently adore God, as a being transcendently bright and blessed, self-existent and self-sufficient, an infinite and eternal Spirit, who has all perfections in himself, and give him the glory of his titles and attributes.
And his perfections to be matchless, and without comparison.
Who is a God like unto thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? Exod 15:11.
Who in the heavens can be compared unto the Lord? Who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord ? O Lord God of hosts, who is a strong Lord like unto thee, or to thy faithfulness round about thee? Ps 89:6, 8.
Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord, neither are there any works like unto thy works; for thou art great, and doest wondrous things; thou art God alone. Ps 86:8, 10.
There is not any creature that has an arm like God, or can thunder with a voice like him. Job 40:9
‹ Yet we must own his nature to be incomprehensible. · And that he is infinitely above us and all other beings. ›
Pray now: a guided prayer in six parts, with the next heads each day.
