A God who commands the morning

These verses shocked me when I read them. God here is speaking to Job.


Job 38:12 Have you commanded the morning since your days began,

and caused the dawn to know its place


Job 38:35 Can you send forth lightnings, that they may go

and say to you, ‘Here we are’?


Wow....who are we in light of such a God? How can I fear man above a God who commands the morning and lightning? It just doesn't make sense, yet in my sinfulness I fear man so much. I pray that God would empower me to tear down the idol of human approval.
