His Name

The Psalmist uses numerous descriptive terms in the course of his writings to depict the glory of God. In Psalm 8:1, Scripture declares: "O Lord, our Lord, How Excellent is Your Name in all the earth; You who set Your Glory Above the Heavens!"

When you realize in your life Who God is, then you will understand His Excellence. No one can explain His Glory to you. The explanation is impossible, but you must experience His Glory and His Excellence for yourself. Once you see His splendor, then you are able to comprehend how incredible and excellent God truly is. 

If you pray and ask God to place you in a right relationship with Him, then you can ask God about things that trouble you and situations you would like to see change. Once you walk in that covenant relationship with Him, you can see His Excellence at work in your personal life because no problem is too large for Him to solve. 

When your heart is surrendered to the Name above all names, you will desire His will to be accomplished in your life. It will no longer be all about you, but will become "How do I live a life pleasing to God, Name above all names?"

His Glory is Far Above the Heavens and is so vast, no one can grasp its depth, its height, its length and its width. But to know the love of God personally is to experience the excellence of God.
