Isaiah 40:12-31
Who has measured the oceans by using the palm of his hand? Who has used the width of his hand to mark off the sky? Who has measured out the dust of the earth in a basket? Who has weighed the mountains on scales? Who has weighed the hills in a balance?Who can ever understand the Spirit of the Lord? Who can ever give him advice?Did the Lord have to ask anyone to help him understand? Did he have to ask someone to teach him the right way? Who taught him what he knows? Who showed him how to understand?The nations are only a drop in a bucket to him. He considers them as nothing but dust on the scales. He weighs the islands as if they were only fine dust.Lebanon doesn’t have enough trees to keep his altar fires burning. It doesn’t have enough animals to sacrifice as burnt offerings to him.To him, all the nations don’t amount to anything. He considers them to be worthless. In fact, they are less than nothing in his sight.So who will you compare God with? Is there any other god like him?Will you compare him with a statue of a god? Anyone who works with metal can make a statue. Then another worker covers it with gold and makes silver chains for it.But someone who is too poor to bring that kind of offering will choose some wood that won’t rot. Then they look for a skilled worker. They pay the worker to make a statue of a god that won’t fall over.Don’t you know who made everything? Haven’t you heard about him? Hasn’t it been told to you from the beginning? Haven’t you understood it ever since the earth was made?God sits on his throne high above the earth. Its people look like grasshoppers to him. He spreads out the heavens like a cover. He sets it up like a tent to live in.He takes the power of princes away from them. He reduces the rulers of this world to nothing.They are planted. They are scattered like seeds. They put down roots in the ground. But as soon as that happens, God blows on them and they dry up. Then a windstorm sweeps them away like straw.“ So who will you compare me with? Who is equal to me?” says the Holy One.Look up toward the sky. Who created everything you see? The Lord causes the stars to come out at night one by one. He calls out each one of them by name. His power and strength are great. So none of the stars is missing.Family of Jacob, why do you complain,“ The Lord doesn’t notice our condition”? People of Israel, why do you say,“ Our God doesn’t pay any attention to our rightful claims”?Don’t you know who made everything? Haven’t you heard about him? The Lord is the God who lives forever. He created everything on earth. He won’t become worn out or get tired. No one will ever know how great his understanding is.He gives strength to those who are tired. He gives power to those who are weak.Even young people become worn out and get tired. Even the best of them trip and fall.But those who trust in the Lord will receive new strength. They will fly as high as eagles. They will run and not get tired. They will walk and not grow weak.

Romans 10:6

-
Ephesians 4:8-10
That is why Scripture says,“ When he went up to his place on high, he took many prisoners. He gave gifts to his people.”( Psalm 68:18)What does“ he went up” mean? It can only mean that he also came down to the lower, earthly places.The one who came down is the same one who went up. He went up higher than all the heavens. He did it in order to fill all creation.

Exodus 3:13-15
Moses said to God,“ Suppose I go to the people of Israel. Suppose I say to them,‘ The God of your fathers has sent me to you.’ And suppose they ask me,‘ What is his name?’ Then what should I tell them?”God said to Moses,“ I am who I am. Here is what you must say to the Israelites. Tell them,‘ I am has sent me to you.’ ”God also said to Moses,“ Say to the Israelites,‘ The Lord is the God of your fathers. He has sent me to you. He is the God of Abraham. He is the God of Isaac. And he is the God of Jacob.’ My name will always be The Lord. Call me this name for all time to come.
-
Exodus 34:5-7
Then the Lord came down in the cloud. He stood there with Moses and announced his name, the Lord.As he passed in front of Moses, he called out. He said,“ I am the Lord, the Lord. I am the God who is tender and kind. I am gracious. I am slow to get angry. I am faithful and full of love.I continue to show my love to thousands of people. I forgive those who do evil. I forgive those who refuse to obey me. And I forgive those who sin. But I do not let guilty people go without punishing them. I cause the sins of the parents to affect their children, grandchildren and great- grandchildren.”

Job 38:4-41
“ Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you know.Who measured it? I am sure you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it?What was it built on? Who laid its most important stone?When it happened, the morning stars sang together. All the angels shouted with joy.“ Who created the ocean? Who caused it to be born?I put clouds over it as if they were its clothes. I wrapped it in thick darkness.I set limits for it. I put its doors and metal bars in place.I said,‘ You can come this far. But you can’t come any farther. Here is where your proud waves have to stop.’“ Job, have you ever commanded the morning to come? Have you ever shown the sun where to rise?The daylight takes the earth by its edges as if it were a blanket. Then it shakes sinful people out of it.The earth takes shape like clay stamped with an official’s mark. Its features stand out like the different parts of your clothes.Sinners would rather have darkness than light. When the light comes, their power is broken.“ Have you traveled to the springs at the bottom of the ocean? Have you walked in its deepest parts?Have the gates of death been shown to you? Have you seen the gates of the deepest darkness?Do you understand how big the earth is? Tell me, if you know all these things.“ Where does light come from? And where does darkness live?Can you take them to their places? Do you know the paths to their houses?I am sure you know! After all, you were already born! You have lived so many years!“ Have you entered the places where the snow is kept? Have you seen the storerooms for the hail?I store up snow and hail for times of trouble. I keep them for days of war and battle.Where does lightning come from? Where do the east winds live that blow across the earth?Who tells the rain where it should fall? Who makes paths for the thunderstorms?They bring water to places where no one lives. They water deserts that do not have anyone in them.They satisfy the needs of dry and empty lands. They make grass start growing there.Does the rain have a father? Who is the father of the drops of dew?Does the ice have a mother? Who is the mother of the frost from the heavens?The waters become as hard as stone. The surface of the ocean freezes over.“ Can you tie up the cords of the Pleiades? Can you untie the belt that Orion wears?Can you bring out all the stars in their seasons? Can you lead out the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper?Do you know the laws that govern the heavens? Can you rule over the earth the way I do?“ Can you give orders to the clouds? Can you make them pour rain down on you?Do you send the lightning bolts on their way? Do they report to you,‘ Here we are’?Who gives the ibis wisdom? Who gives the rooster understanding?Who is wise enough to count the clouds? Who can tip over the water jars of the heavens?I tip them over when the ground becomes hard. I do it when the dirt sticks together.“ Do you hunt for food for mother lions? Do you satisfy the hunger of their cubs?Some of them lie low in their dens. Others lie waiting in the bushes.Who provides food for ravens when their babies cry out to me? They wander around because they do not have anything to eat.

Psalms 104:2-35
The Lord wraps himself in light as if it were a robe. He spreads out the heavens like a tent.He builds his palace high in the heavens. He makes the clouds serve as his chariot. He rides on the wings of the wind.He makes the winds serve as his messengers. He makes flashes of lightning serve him.He placed the earth on its foundations. It can never be moved.You, Lord, covered it with the oceans like a blanket. The waters covered the mountains.But you commanded the waters, and they ran away. At the sound of your thunder they rushed off.They flowed down the mountains. They went into the valleys. They went to the place you appointed for them.You drew a line they can’t cross. They will never cover the earth again.The Lord makes springs pour water into the valleys. It flows between the mountains.The springs give water to all the wild animals. The wild donkeys satisfy their thirst.The birds in the sky build nests by the waters. They sing among the branches.The Lord waters the mountains from his palace high in the clouds. The earth is filled with the things he has made.He makes grass grow for the cattle and plants for people to take care of. That’s how they get food from the earth.There is wine to make people glad. There is olive oil to make their skin glow. And there is bread to make them strong.The cedar trees of Lebanon belong to the Lord. He planted them and gave them plenty of water.There the birds make their nests. The stork has its home in the juniper trees.The high mountains belong to the wild goats. The cliffs are a safe place for the rock badgers.The Lord made the moon to mark off the seasons. The sun knows when to go down.You, Lord, bring darkness, and it becomes night. Then all the animals of the forest prowl around.The lions roar while they hunt. All their food comes from God.The sun rises, and they slip away. They return to their dens and lie down.Then people get up and go to work. They keep working until evening.Lord, you have made so many things! How wise you were when you made all of them! The earth is full of your creatures.Look at the ocean, so big and wide! It is filled with more creatures than people can count. It is filled with living things, from the largest to the smallest.Ships sail back and forth on it. Leviathan, the sea monster you made, plays in it.All creatures depend on you to give them their food when they need it.When you give it to them, they eat it. When you open your hand, they are satisfied with good things.When you turn your face away from them, they are terrified. When you take away their breath, they die and turn back into dust.When you send your Spirit, you create them. You give new life to the ground.May the glory of the Lord continue forever. May the Lord be happy with what he has made.When he looks at the earth, it trembles. When he touches the mountains, they pour out smoke.I will sing to the Lord all my life. I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.May these thoughts of mine please him. I find my joy in the Lord.But may sinners be gone from the earth. May evil people disappear. I will praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.
