This week Bro. Leo continues us on a study of how our perspective of God influences how we see the world around us by looking at what our perception of God should be.

In Isaiah 6:1 and Psalms 45:6, 3-7 we read three descriptions of God.
1) God is on the throne.  He is above all, always has been and always will be.  2) He is a warrior God.  He wars against and hates wickedness.  The battle is not ours, it is His. 3)  God loves righteousness and those who are on the side of righteousness.

With this perception of God in mind we will always remember who is and who should be in control of every aspect of our lives.  This perception of God also reminds us of whom we need to depend on and trust on.

Scriptures used in today’s study:
