This verse takes me back to Elijah. When he and the prophets of Baal had a demonstration of whose god was the true and living. Baal had 450 prophets. That is an enormous amount. They danced, shouted and cut themselves and there was no response from Baal. But when Elijah called on the true God, the sacrifice was destroyed by fire. God demonstrated to those heathens that is the all-consuming fire.
God is so awesome. He is living. He is not dead. He is to be elevated and honored. We have to quiet ourselves and recognize who God is. He said to Moses I am that I am. Many people mock God and say He is fairytale but everyone will know that God is real. He is not a figment of anyone’s imagination. He is all powerful, all knowing and all presence. We bow in humility. All will lower themselves in reverence. Being in God’s presence at times even causes you to drop to your knees because of the awe that you feel. No one can stand. We are never greater than our Creator. He is above all and is to worshipped.
We lift our hands in adoration
To you O’ God of the heavens
You alone are God
The idolaters and pagans
Will go down to the ground
Can anyone stand in your presence?
Absolutely not!
You are the only true God
I silence myself
As I ponder your greatness
Mighty is your power
Over all creation
You caused the sea to dry
The axe to rise
The bush to burn
The donkey to turn
As the angel of the Lord
Blocked the way
When you speak
We all shutter
For your voice is like a volcano
And also, a breeze
You are known
On the hearts of man
The spiritually dead
The blasphemer
Cannot deny your being
