My God (Part 2)

Updated: Sep 24, 2020


Be Still and Know That I am God Psalm 46:10


My Relationship with my God


The other day when I was praying and meditating in God’s presence, the Lord asked me this question “What do you think about me? Who am I to you?”


Once, Jesus asked his disciples the same question.


Matthew 16:13-16 - When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”


But today, Jesus asks the same question to this congregation, “Who do you say I am?

However, God told me that in order to maintain a close relationship with Him, His people must know the following truths.


Faith means believing in and obeying God.


Ultimately, the way we see God, will determine the shape of our faith.


If we see a big, faithful, all-powerful God, then our faith will rise to those levels. If, on the other hand, we see a smaller God, a distant or less active God, then faith will mound at those levels.


1. I Know God as My Creator

i. Psalm 139:13-16 –“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.14 I praise you because I am (BEAUTIFULLY)fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. 15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. 16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”

I see my creator through His beautiful creations - can you see the beauty of His creation in you and in others?

The Human body - God’s masterpiece

The Human Body Reveals The Glory of God, Our Creator

We live in an amazing world. The greatest of all creations is man himself, the marvellous machine—precise and efficient.

Without a doubt, the most complex information-processing system in existence is the human body.

The human body has a dynamic framework of bone and cartilage called the skeleton. The human skeleton is flexible, with hinges and joints that were made to move.


Man-made machines are lubricated only by outside sources. But the body lubricates itself by manufacturing a jelly-like substance in the right amount at every place it is needed. Yes, the body is a wonder machine,


The body has a chemical plant far more intricate than any plant that man has ever built. This plant changes the food we eat into living tissue. It causes the growth of flesh, blood, bones and teeth. It even repairs the body when parts are damaged by accident or disease. Power, for work and play, comes from the food we eat.

Our Skin

Your skin is the ultimate touch screen:

Each square inch of your skin includes four yards of nerve fibers

600 pain sensors, 1300 nerve cells, 9000 nerve endings, 36 heat sensors, 75 pressure sensors, 100 sweat glands, 3 million cells and 3 yards of blood vessels.

Our Fingerprint

Just three months into the pregnancy, an unborn child already has fingerprints.

At just 6-13 weeks of development, the distinctive whorls have already developed.

Interestingly, those fingerprints will never change throughout a person’s life.

And your fingerprints are your own unique bar code indicating the true miracle you are!

Our Cooling & Heating System

Even in freezing weather our bodies will sometimes overheat. The body’s own cooling system then takes over.

The human body has an automatic thermostat that takes care of both our heating and cooling systems, keeping body temperature at about 37°C (98.6°F).

Our Brain

The control center of the human body is the human brain. It is by far the most complex information-management system in the universe.

The brain is the center of a complex computer system more wonderful than the greatest one ever built by man.

In the body, nerves are the wires that carry the information back and forth from the central nervous system.

And in just one human brain there is probably more wiring, more electrical circuitry, than in all the computer systems of the world put together.1 Yes, it is a wonderful thing—this brain of ours.

Our Ears

The sound we hear is being played on a perfect little musical instrument inside our ear. The sound waves go down the auditory canal and are carried by the bones of the middle ear to the cochlea, which is rolled up like a tiny sea shell.

The outer ear operates in air. But the cochlea is filled with liquid, and transferring sound waves from air to liquid like the waves on the surface of water. Our ear picks up the waves, and a sequence of event take place to be interpreted by the brain as what sound and who’s sound is one of the most difficult problems known to science


I am beautifully, fearfully and wonderfully created

Yes, the human body is a wonderful machine.

The raw material, the basic chemicals in our body, can be found in the ‘dust of the ground’. However, these chemicals cannot arrange themselves into cell tissues, organs and systems. This can only happen with an input of intelligence.


I am beautifully, fearfully and wonderfully created


The book of Genesis (1:27) teaches that God took ‘the dust of the ground’, a heap of chemicals, shaped a man and then blew into his nostrils the breath of life. Then man became a living soul.

What is more, every human being, unlike the animals that some believe gave rise to human beings, is remarkably unique, which again shows the hand of God.

The fact is we are precious to God, who continues to love us even when we pay him no mind, even when we deny his existence.

Our Heart

The Human Heart…A Thing of Wonder

The human heart is one of the most complex organs of the body. The heart is the central component of the circulatory system whose purpose is to provide oxygen, glucose, protein, carbohydrates to the various organs of the body while simultaneously removing cellular waste.

Every day, your heart beats about 100,000 times, sending 2,000 gallons of blood surging through your body. Although it's no bigger than your fist, your heart has the mighty job of keeping blood flowing through the 60,000 miles of blood vessels that feed your organs and tissues.

Our Kidneys

The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs on either side of your spine, below your ribs and behind your belly. Each kidney is about 4 or 5 inches long, roughly the size of a large fist.

Although the heart is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body, the kidneys job is to filter your blood.

Each kidney has not just one big filtering sponge, rather a million tiny filters called nephrons.

They filter a half-cup of blood every minute, which works out to be 45 gallons of blood per day.

They remove wastes, extra water and toxins to control the body’s fluid balance and keep the right levels of electrolytes.

The body needs levels of sodium, potassium, and calcium too be balanced. Too little and the body can’t function properly. Too much and the body will get damaged. Filtering acids helps maintain the blood's pH balance.

Our Eyes


Our Amazing Eyes - Two Miracles from Our God

Known as the most complex organ after the brain,

Eyes play a major role in our intellectual foundation and growth. The eye is composed of over 2 million parts.


Each eye is composed of 130 million light-sensitive cells.


The muscle that moves the eye are the strongest and fast moving type of muscles fibers in the body.


Scientists estimate that human eye can distinguish up to 10 million colors

Our eye is the part of our brain


The signals travel at a rate of a billion per second to the brain from our eyes.


Our eyes are responsible for 90% of all the information we learn throughout our lives


One single square millimeter of the retina contains approximately 400,000 optical sensors

You blink 500 million times in a lifetime

That’s about 15 times per minute. Blinking serves to move tear fluid across the eye, keeping the eyeball moist, and free from dust and debris. In this way, your eyelids are rather like windscreen wipers.

Our Universe

Psalm 19:1 - "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands."

Isaiah 40:26 - "Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing."

We do not know how big our universe is,


We only know the “known Universe”


We do not have that much big telescope to know the entire universe


Each time we make bigger telescope, we find a bigger universe than before. Each time God laughs and says congratulations!


Go back and build bigger one than this, then I will show you some more things. Yes, I have more stuff up here!


The primary purpose of universe is not for inhabitance of human, but the primary purpose is to show off His splendor and the majesty and the greatness and for the glory of God who created all.


By the Words of God, He created everything.

When God open His mouth and said * “let there be light” – through His words light came out with 1,86,000-mile speed per second. (5.88 trillion miles is one light year distance)

We need a scale of 5.88 Trillion miles to measure the universe

There are around 250 to 400 billion stars in one Galaxy, and there are 100 billion Galaxies in the milky way

If we count the stars in one galaxy per second, it will take 2500 years to count.

You know how God created - just a word

Yes! The heavens declare the glory of my God; the skies proclaim the work of my God’s hands.

Ish: 40: 25. To whom will you compare me? Or who is my equal?” says the Holy One. 26 Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.

God is not our size – not like our brain, He don’t think like we think

He is huge! – and we are really, really small.

Imagine the size of Milky Way – If we go one side to another side – it will take 100,000 light years

And our solar system and the galaxy is just like a small coin size compare to North America.

Ps: 8: 3-4. When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?

How BIG our God is and how tiny, small we are – yet God loves us, know by our name and want to make a relationship with us and that relationship never end.

Sun is the small and close star to us, 39 million miles away from us.

The Sun is at an average distance of about 93,000,000 miles (150 million kilometers) away from Earth. It is so far away that light from the Sun, traveling at a speed of 186,000 miles (300,000 kilometers) per second, takes about 8 minutes to reach us.

The sun is like a giant nuclear engine, it converts 8 million tones of matter into energy single second, and has a interior temperature of mor than 20 million degrees Celsius

*The biggest Star called Canis Majoris


You can fit 9.3 billion of our suns into VY Canis Majoris. This star is about 4,900 light years from Earth.

Job 38: 4 -6. “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand. 5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? 6 On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone.


Yes! The heavens declare the glory of my God; the skies proclaim the work of my God’s hands.

What a mighty God we serve


My GOD is so BIG,

so STRONG and so MIGHTY

there is nothing MY GOD can do for you and me

if we know who is our God and surrender our lives to him
