For the month of May 2022, we will examine descriptions of God from the Bible that are not often emphasized in worship. Our goal is that by examining these traits of God we will increase our understanding of Him and thereby enhance our worship. The five descriptions we will look at are God as Worker, God as Mother, God as Husband, God as Gardener, and God as Watchman.
Today is celebrated worldwide as Mayday or International Workers’ Day. It is fitting that we look at God as The Worker because He is the first Worker, and indeed, the Ultimate Worker. In John 5:17 Jesus said of God “My Father is always at work, to this very day, and I too am working“. What, then, is the work of God? As we anticipate that glorious day, let us worship God as The Ultimate Worker.
