I was in my daily time of praise and trying for a fresh approach. I was praising Him for His healing and such when it occurred to me that all I needed to do was change the article. God is not “a” healer, but “the” Healer. Get it more down to earth for the masses, He is “The” Doctor.
And as they say, the list goes on:
The Engineer
The Mathematician
The Artist
The Weatherman
All you need to do is look back over the things you prayer about and for. God is the ultimate. That makes Him The Answer.
There is a danger here of viewing these attributes as isolated. These are not moods. They are not demigods. They are not part of a pantheon of gods. They are not godlets assigned a specific task. They are attributes that only have meaning as a part of the entire personhood of God. It is similar in understanding to the trinity. God never turns any of them off.
