  6. Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

  7. We live in a very noisy world!

  8. 1 John 5:19 . . . the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. John 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him.When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

  9. Dual Spiritual Disciplines of Praise and Thanksgiving Strong defines praise as “the acknowledging of His perfections, works, benefits, and excellences.” Strong defines thanksgiving as “being thankful at what God has done historically in your life.”

  10. Psalm 145A Song of Praise. Of David. English acrostic: A - Z (26 letters – 26 verses) Hebrew acrostic: aleph – tav (22 letters – 22 verses) (an acrostic)

  11. Psalm 145:1-2 I will extol you, my God and King,    and bless your nameforever and ever.2 Every day I will bless you    and praise your nameforever and ever. Psalm 145:3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable. Yahweh (Occurs 10 times in the Psalm)

  12. Two Grand Realities about God Two Far-Reaching Roles

  13. Two Grand Realities about God #1 – God is GREAT

  14. #1 – God is GREAT Psalm 145:3-6 Greatis the LORD, and greatly to be praised,    and his greatnessis unsearchable. 4 One generation shall commend your works to another,    and shall declare your mighty acts.5 On the glorious splendor of your majesty,    and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.6 They shall speak of the might of your awesome deeds, and I will declare your greatness.

  17. How deep is the ocean? 100 meters (328 feet) – diving can be fatal if not careful due to decompression sickness 332 meters(1,089 feet) – scuba diving world record

  18. 500 meters (1,640 feet) – deepest dive depth of Blue Whale and Sea Wolf class of nuclear submarines

  19. 850 meters(2,788 feet) – Ocean would cover the world’s tallest bldg: The Burg Khalifa in Dubai.

  20. 1,000 meters(3,280 feet) – enter The Scary Zone. Light from surface unable to penetrate beyond this depth, shrouding the depths below in perpetual darkness! The Giant Squid!

  21. 2,250 meters(7,282 feet) – maximum dive depth of Sperm whales and the Colossal Squid

  22. A Sperm Whale Over 50 feet long and 40 tons

  23. 2250 meters(7282 feet) – maximum dive depth of Sperm whales and the Colossal Squid

  24. 4000 meters(13,123 ft) – The Ocean’s Abyssal Zone ---- inhabited by alien-like creatures such as: Angler Fish and the Viper Fish

  25. 4267 meters(14,000 feet) – The bottom of ocean floor. But there are even deeper crevices and canyons which are massive in size – these are called “deeps”!

  26. 6000 meters(19,685 feet) Now closing in on 4 miles deep!). This is the beginning of the Hadal Zone (named for Hades). Life still exists! Ocean water pressure at this depth – 1100 times greater than the 14.70 psi of air pressure at sea level!

  27. 747 Jumbo Jet

  28. 10,916 meters(35813 feet) – The deepest point man has ever gone with an underwater unmanned submarine (staying at this depth a mere 20 minutes before being forced to return due to cracked window). This is the average altitude at which commercial airliners fly!

  29. 10,994 meters(36,069 feet – almost 7 miles) This is the deepest “known” part of the ocean (and since only somewhere between 5-10% of ocean floor mapped, it may very well NOT be the deepest part of the ocean!)

  30. Two Grand Realities about God #1 – God is GREAT #2 – God is GOOD

  31. #2 – God is GOOD Psalm 145:7-9 They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness and shall sing aloud of your righteousness. 8 The Lord is gracious and merciful,    slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.9 The Lord is goodto all,    and his mercy is over all that he has made.
