Beauty in the Shadows

 

          Sometime last year in the late summer or early fall, we had a burst of major storms. There's so much beauty, yet so much fear when it comes to adverse weather. Today, I am sharing some Bible verses with you that demonstrate how mighty God is by the description of His voice and how thunder may be an example of His anger with the people that do not believe in Him and the people who keep sinning even after they have received His grace and mercy.

 

 

"The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them:..."

I. Samuel 2:10

 

"And Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and the LORD sent thunder and hail,..."

Exodus 9:23

 

"...The LORD shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth."

Jeremiah 25:30

 

"The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the LORD will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel."

Joel 3:16

 

"And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder:"

Mark 3:17

 

 

          This final verse makes reference, not to God, but to the powerful speaking voices of the disciples, James and John - the sons of Zebedee.
