“There is none like You, O Lord; You are great, and great is Your name in might.” (Jer. 10:6)

The everlasting Creator 

“Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable.” (Isa. 40:28 ESV)

Greatness, power, glory, victory and majesty

“Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything that is in the heavens and the earth; Yours is the dominion, O Lord, and You exalt Yourself as head over all.” (1 Cor. 29:11)

The God of gods and Lord of lords

“For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome God, who is not partial and takes no bribe.” (Deut. 10:17 ESV)

Greatly to be praised 

“For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; He also is to be feared above all gods.” (1 Cor. 16:25)

“For God is the King of all the earth;

Sing praises with a skillful psalm.” (Psalm 47:7) 

“Cry aloud and shout for joy, O inhabitant of Zion, For great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel.” (Isa. 12:6) 

Therefore

“I said, “I beseech You, O Lord God of heaven, the great and awesome God, who preserves the covenant and lovingkindness for those who love Him and keep His commandments,” (Neh. 1:5)

Quote:

“If God is the Creator of the entire universe, then it must follow that He is the Lord of the whole universe. No part of the world is outside of His lordship. That means that no part of my life must be outside of His lordship.” - R. C. Sproul
