How Great Is Our God! - All Our Daily Bread Daily Devotionals for 2026

Bible in a Year: 2 Kings 4-6, Luke 24:36-53

Great are the works of the Lord; they are pondered by all who delight in them.
Psalm 111:2

Today's Scripture & Insight: Psalm 111:1-10

Fingerprints have long been used to identify people, but they can be faked by creating copies. Similarly, the pattern of the iris in the human eye is a reliable source for ID—until someone alters the pattern with a contact lens to skew the results. The use of biometrics to identify individuals can be defeated. So, what qualifies as a unique identifying characteristic? It turns out that everyone's blood-vessel patterns are unique and virtually impossible to counterfeit. Your own personal "vein map" is a one-of-a-kind identifier, setting you apart from everyone else on the planet.

Pondering such complexities of human beings should prompt a sense of worship and wonder for the Creator who made us. David reminded us that we are "fearfully and wonderfully made" (Psalm 139:14), and that is certainly worth celebrating. In fact, Psalm 111:2 reminds us, "Great are the works of the Lord; they are pondered by all who delight in them."

Even more worthy of our attention is the divine Maker Himself. While celebrating God's great deeds, we also must celebrate Him! His deeds are great, but He's even greater, prompting the psalmist to pray, "For you are great and do marvelous deeds; you alone are God" (86:10).

Today, as we consider the greatness of what God does, may we also marvel at the greatness of who He is.

Father, I can easily be sidetracked into thinking too much about creation without truly considering You—the One who made all of creation. Help me to marvel at You.
