NO ONE LIKE GOD
AN INCALCULABLE WEALTH

Paul has spoken in Romans of the riches of God’s goodness—even to sinners, “Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?” (2:4, emphasis added). The Apostle has written about the riches of God’s glory—to the saved, “and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory” (9:23, emphasis added). He has told of the riches of God’s grace—to all who believe, “For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.” (10:12, emphasis added). Further, Paul underscored the riches of God’s government—His plan for Jews and Gentiles, “Now if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness!” (11:12, emphasis added). These are the incalculable riches of redemption that Paul would have us gaze upon as he opens the treasure chest of truth in Romans 11:33, and breathtakingly comments, “Oh, the depth of the riches…!” (emphasis added)

How can you place a dollar value on that? It is ours through Christ! The Apostle’s extensive vocabulary failed in its ability to calculate its worth and said this,

8 To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
9 and to make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ;
10 to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places,
11 according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord (Eph.3:8-11, emphasis added)

Worship is my response to the worth of God. It is a worth so incalculable that it will require all eternity to declare it. Why don’t we get started today?
