As I watched this clip, I had to think about Psalm 103:11, "For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him." Truly we serve a great and awesome God whose majesty and wonder are beyond comprehension! O dear soul, glorify this God for He alone is worthy of our worship! Psalm 97:9, "For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods."
"But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation. Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens. He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion. When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures. Every man is brutish in his knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them. They are vanity, and the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish." Jeremiah 10:10-15. Fall down and worship, O vain man! Will you stand against this God? Will you only give Him lip service while your heart is far from Him? Or do you not know that the forbearance and goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? but thou, after the impenitence of thy heart storest up for thyself wrath against the day of wrath. Today, if you will hear His voice, harden not your hearts! While there is yet time, turn yourself to this God of wonder and Father of Light! Surrender yourself to Him now, while His mercy still stands! There is coming a day when there will be no more grace. In that day, many will come and stand before this thrice holy, almighty God who is worthy of all power, worship, majesty, and honor and will say, Lord, Lord, have we not done many wonderful works in thy name, and cast out demons in thy name? And the Lord, the Christ, the Savior will say, Depart from me ye workers of iniquity, for I never knew you! Oh, dear soul! Will this be the statement that is made to you? If your heart is hard before the Lord, fall on your face now and cry unto the Lord for mercy, and that He would give you a new heart! For today is the day of salvation. Tomorrow, you may be called to stand before Him. And what will you do then if you have not made peace with God before in Christ? It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God. Knowing therefore the terror of God, we persuade men.
