Sovereign- "The assertion of God's absolute sovereignty in creation, providence, and grace is basic to biblical belief and biblical praise." by J.I. Packer from his book, Concise Theology, (Tyndale Publishers)
"God's sovereignty is the attribute by which He rules His entire creation; and to be sovereign, God must be all-knowing, all-powerful, and absolutely free. . . Were there even one datum of knowledge, however small, unknown to God, His rule would break down at that point. To be Lord over all creation, He must possess all knowledge."

Omnipotent- He is all powerful, having power and dominion over everything seen and unseen. He is able to do all His holy will.
Gen. 17:1; Rev. 4:8; 19:6; Psalm 24:8; 61:3; Isa. 9:6; 10:21
******************
Omnipresent- He is everywhere at once in the same way, and at all times in all His fullness.
Psalm 139:7-10; Jer. 23:23,24; Acts 17:24-28; Matt. 8:20; 18:20
***************
Omniscient- He is all knowing. God knows all things perfectly, even the thought and intents of our hearts. He know all things past, present, and future perfectly. He is never surprised.
Daniel 2:20-22; Job 37:16; Psalm 147:4,5; Isa 44:6-8; 46:9,10
2 Chron. 16:9; Matt 6:7-8, 31,32; Prov. 5:21; Hebrews 4:13
"Our hearts cannot be inflamed about something we know not of. Unless we know God deeply, we cannot love Him deeply. A faint understanding of God is enough to begin the heart to stir. Emotions may be kindled by the slightest acquaintance with the majesty of Christ. But for that spark to rise into a consuming and lasting fire, our knowledge of Him must increase."

About Me
- Mrs.Judikay Abigail Humes
- Married Jul, 1966; Saved through the ministry of CEF Nov., 1967; I took ongoing teacher training while teaching children in Good News Clubs and Church, and raising children. I was called of God to become an Instructor of Teachers in August, 2004. I completed Children's Ministries Institute, in Warrenton MO, by Oct 2005, passed the Bible School Equivilency test, and earned the three CMI Instructor of Teachers Credentials by October, 2007. I have worked with experienced teachers,teaching courses; I also served as Ministry coordinator for five seasons at the Four States Fair during which an average of one hundred children and several adults prayed to receive the Lord each season. I had the privelege of serving with a team to the Commonwealth of Dominica, West Indies December of 2006 and again November 2008, where we trained teachers there to reach the children of Dominica, and taught many children there as well. Knowing that I am strongly called of God to reach children and train teachers to do so effectively, I pursue my vocation with zeal and joy. My husband of over 45 years, Ralph, supports me in every way a husband can so that I have been able to answer God's call.
