Allahu Akbar means that God is the Greatest, but what does that really mean? We have a concept of who God is, but until you know Him that is all it is: words, names, concepts. How do you get to know Allahu Akbar? It takes faith, time, and breaking down all your unknown barrier walls. Sometimes it takes a soldier mentality: fight for His cause, strength, and endurance.
To know how great God is requires a servant mentality: duty, loyalty, and submission. You search for His desire, wishes, and commands for your life instead of your own path. It is not easy, but you find yourself praising Him while in the journey because you discover your truest self. You find yourself doing whatever it takes to please God by worshipping, praying, and serving Him.
God is great and His Character endures. He provides pleasantness in your life. He shows you signs and wonders in life. He has the power to kill off nations and at the same time display compassion. His very name will endure eternity. Life is a journey full of ups and downs. It is better traveled with God than alone.
Psalm 135
