Have our lives been so powerfully impacted by God that the world stands in awe, or do they mock our God because we portray a whimpy powerless God? When the spies went to Jericho (the city where the walls fell down), the people were in awe and feared God before the Israelites ever showed up in town. Does the reputation of your mighty, awesome God precede your arrival?
Joshua 2:9-11
And she said to the men, I know that the Lord has given you the land and that your terror is fallen upon us and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you. For we have heard how the Lord dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the [east] side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed. When we heard it, our hearts melted, neither did spirit or courage remain any more in any man because of you, for the Lord your God, He is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.
