How do you view God?

  Before this post begins, let's take a moment to list 5 things that we are thankful for.
I mean, think deep. Do not say the obvious things, like 'family,' or 'friends.' What do you ABSOLUTELY adore, that God has blessed you with? Or things that you just appreciate?
   For instance, here are my 5 things.
      1) The way the leaves crunch under my feet as I walk
      2) The sound of a new Christian saying the name of Jesus.
      3) The peace that passes all understanding.
      4) Every line in my knuckles.
      5) A clear night sky.  Have you made your list yet?
    No?
  ....
    Okay, I can wait.
  .........
  .....
I hope you aren't continuing reading without making your list. It's important, in order to continue. You're done with the list? Awesome!
  Verbally, thank God for everything on your list. Express your thankfulness for these things out loud! Explain to our Creator WHY you are appreciative for these things.
     ( Yes, He already knows why. But that does NOT mean you can't tell Him. You may find out 
          a few things about yourself that you didn't already know. ;) ) When you're finished praying, continue reading.

How did you thank God?
-Did you say "Dear heavenly Father, I sit in your presence in utmost awe and adoration of The Most High, whom shall reign etc."  ..?
-Did you say "Dear God, Thank you SO much for blessing me. You're one awesome Creator! I wanna thank you for etc." ..?Neither way is bad! After all, we ARE praying.
Alright, look guys. I'm going to be blunt. Is that okay? Alright, cool.

 You pray to God how you view God.

Let's reflect.

  If you picture God as being the Creator of the Universe, -  the one who crafted every star, molded every mountain - If you view God as the Beginning and the End, If you are humbled by the presence of God ; You probably prayed something along the lines of the 1st prayer.
  If you view God as a loving and caring Father, the One you can run into the arms of, the One who wipes your tears and holds your face in His hands, who created every hair and wrinkle in your skin ; You probably prayed something like the 2nd prayer.
( I am not an expert, I am not a guru. I am not saying this is how it always is. )

  Different people have different personalities. Those personalities include our thoughts of God.
Some people view God as a 'human being', meaning He can laugh and understand situations.
Some people view God as a god, meaning He rules and judges.

  But what if we were to be both?
What if we didn't sound like a southern Baptist preacher using words no man knows when we pray? What if we didn't say "yo, whuttup, Jesus?"
What if we had humbleness and respect, but not to an extreme? What if we could laugh with God, and learn to see God as our Papa?

"Yo, whuttup, my man, Jesus?"
Have respect for your Saviour! You're talking to the VERY One who crafted and hand carved the lines and holes in every tree, painted each leaf with precision and perfection ; You're talking to the One who made your hair and eye color to perfection, who makes sure you make it from school/work to home safely, who knows the thought of EVERY person and thing at once, who cares for the birds in the air, and the mice in the fields.
 Yes, He is your friend. But He is NOT to be ran over. He may just flip over your tables.

"Dear precious Heavenly Father, I praise thee with thy mouth.."
'Heavenly Father'? Do you talk to your earthly father like that? So why do you talk to your Heavenly one with words you do not understand?
Stop putting up a front. Your Creator knows exactly how you are ; He MADE you to be yourself. So why do you put up a 'holy frontation' when it comes to prayer, and the ways of God?
I honor your respect for God. I appreciate the fact that you humble yourself before Him, but dude, you're over doing it. That very God you're praying to loves to hear your thoughts. He loves for you to scream, cry, laugh, smile, while praying to Him. Your emotion is what He adores, because it means you are REAL while praying.
Humble yourself before God, but treat Him like your Papa. Laugh with Him. He has shown me COUNTLESS times how humorous He really is. Believe it or not, but He actually tells me funny things, and tells me jokes... He is as real with us as we are to Him.


God treats US like WE treat God.

Trade your "thee"s and your "thou"s for "awesome" and laughter.
Trade your "yo"s and uncaringness for "Holy" and "Righteous"

Take a listen to this song, PLEASE.. It's called God by Eddie James.
 The first words are "A.W Tozer teaches us, in his book called 'The Knowledge of the Holy,' that the most important thing a Christian can do, is to think rightly about God." If those words do not give you chills, I don't know what will.
Take a listen. I will post the lyrics, as well.
You. Will. Not. Regret. It.


















God In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God
The same was in the beginning
With God all things were made by Him and without Him was not anything made
It is He who has made us and not we ourselves
For we have one God and Father of all
Who is above all, through all, and in you all
God, the Holy Ghost, spirit of truth, indwelling power
God, the Son, Jesus, the same
Yesterday, today, and forevermore

Jehovah, Yeshua, I AM, Elohim
Kadesh, He's Holy, None compares to Him
Glorious, All-Sufficient, Triumphant King
For Thy pleasure You created all things

(Rap)
Yeah, that's right we're talking about God the Creator
Talking about the Ruler of all
The I AM who created man
He's the Rock, He's the Lion and He's the Lamb
Almighty leaves Satan deceased
He's the Most High, Satan's the least
He defeated Him, He's victorious
Our God's too powerful, He's too glorious

God before the foundations of the world you were God
Before dominions, the heavens, the earth, and the angels
God before the galaxies, water, wind or the air we breathe
Nothing and no one can exist outside of Thee
For You are God
Who can counsel, advise, instruct, direct or give wisdom to God
Who has weapons or an army to wage war and defeat our God
Who has insight, who has revelation to describe the One whose ways are past finding out?

Jehovah, Yeshua, I AM, Elohim
Kadesh, He's Holy, None compares to Him
Glorious, All-Sufficient, Triumphant King
For Thy pleasure You created all things

(Rap)
Yeah, that's right He's kadesh
He's holy, He's different, yeah He's the best
Ain't no match for Him, He's on top
That's right yeah He's coming and He can't be stopped
He's unstoppable that's 'cause He's too strong and He's the boss
Overall He's over all and above everything else our God stands too tall

God The greatest insult is to take the work of one's hands and call it God
Even greater is to take the work of His hands and call it God
Provoke His jealousy, fire burning envy
Take anyone, take anything and put it in the place of the true and the living God
His glory shall not be shared with another
God, exclusive, you can have no other lovers
God wrapped in humanity, He gave His life for me
In Him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily

Jehovah, Yeshua, I AM, Elohim
Kadesh, He's Holy, None compares to Him
Glorious, All-Sufficient, Triumphant King
For Thy pleasure You created all things

(Round)
God, God, God, God, You alone are God
Eyes like fire, hair like wool, feet like brass, voice of many waters
Kadesh, Holy, Sovereign, Different, voice of many waters
Holy, worthy, holy, worthy, holy, worthy

Glorious in holiness, fearful in praises
You do wonders, who is like unto You?
For You are
Glorious in holiness, fearful in praises
You do wonders, who is like unto You?
For You are

(Round)
God, God, God, God, You alone are God
Eyes like fire, hair like wool, feet like brass, voice of many waters
Kadesh, Holy, Sovereign, Different, voice of many waters
Holy, worthy, holy, worthy, holy, worthy

Glorious in holiness, fearful in praises
You do wonders, who is like unto You?
For You are

Jehovah, Yeshua, I AM, Elohim
Kadesh, He's Holy, None compares to Him
Glorious, All-Sufficient, Triumphant King
For Thy pleasure You created all things


Oh praise Jehovah, Kadesh, Yeshua
Cuz there's no other, You're God and You're Holy
Oh praise Jehovah, Kadesh Yeshua
Cuz there's no other, You're God and You're Holy
Oh praise Jehovah, Kadesh, Yeshua
Cuz there's no other, You're God and You're Holy


You're God, You're Holy
You're God and You're Holy
You're God and You're Holy
You're God and You're Holy
