Describe God!

[MeCajunboy]

Let's assume you saw God today. Describe HIM to the best of your ability to include appearance, both personal and inner appearance.....If this makes any sense to you.

[ayin jade]

I cant.

I know He is so much more than I can imagine. He is light, shining glory, someone who will fill my senses with unimaginable things when I see Him. including a love and peace that will overwhelm me. I cant imagine seeing Him and not falling on the ground before Him, humbled, awed, tearful, speechless.

I fear for those who are not saved.

His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;

And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.

And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

Revelation 1:14-18

Isn't He Wonderful!

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6

Isn't He!

Fresno Joe - your posts are always a delight - a beautiful, spirit-filled experience to read - thank you

When I imagine God, i just see light. Beautiful light. For me, it's all my human mind can comprehend.

Cajunboy:::I fear for those who are not saved.) I fear even more for those who "think" they are saved.......and are not!

I agree...Ican't describe Him...He is so much more than I can imagine

Cajunboy::::I was hoping that you might give your "vision" of HIM Joe? Have you ever "envisioned" HIM in your mind and heart?

I would like to hear in your own mind/words that describe your walk/ideas of HIM! please?

Revelation had a nice image of what Jesus looks like, from John's perspective. When I've tried to imagine what He looks like I used that image, but without the sword-tongue and I don't try adding a face, I leave it blank, out of respect. I don't presume to imagine how beautiful He is until I see Him one day. When I pray, I'm not thinking of an image, though, or when I speak to Him. I believe there's a reason people fall on their face before Him when they meet Him face to face. How can our words or even minds begin to describe His glory?

[DarkNebulaWelder]

As I'm reading your question, I am reminded of the account in Exodus 33:12-23., and especially verse 20, where God says:

"You cannot see my face, for no man shall see Me, and live."

The only way I can describe Him is pure glory in it's most intense form, with an enormous presence of indescribable love, and immense power.

I would be hard-pressed to describe Him physically, as the Scriptures state that "no man shall see Him and live," so I couldn't even imagine what He would look like.
