Thunder—An Echo of the Creator’s Voice - Psalm 29:3-4: “The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders… The voice of the LORD is powerful.” - Jeremiah 10:12-13: When He thunders, the waters in the heavens roar—vivid confirmation that the God who formed earth still governs its rhythms. - Exodus 19:16: Israel trembled at Sinai as thunder signaled God’s presence, just as Job trembles before the storm. Storms Display His Sovereignty - Nahum 1:3: “His path is in the whirlwind and storm, and clouds are the dust beneath His feet.” - Job 38:1: “Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind.” The storm that frightens Job becomes God’s pulpit. - Mark 4:39-41: Jesus calms wind and waves with a word, proving the Creator’s authority in flesh.
