And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. I Kings 19:11-12
I've also always liked the many analogies of the Trinity with "Earth", "Wind", and "Fire", (no, not the rock group, but the Rock of Ages - couldn't help myself), which was the ancients fundamental elements from which all things were created, (some truth there, don't you think?)

Thanks, Ted. The Lord showed me this Scripture last week.Wind, earthquake, fire correspond to omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience respectively. These three atttributes are powerful and awesome. Yet God came in a still small voice. Don't you see? He is LOVE, sweet and gentle in a whisper,
"therefore do the virgins love thee." (Song 1:3)Wind points to God's omnipotence because it was a "great and strong wind" and it "rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks".
Fire is light and it points to omniscience.
Earthquake points to omnipresence because whenever it occurs its shockwaves ripple out from the epicenter to the ends of the Earth. This association may seem contrived at first, however, there are numerous examples I have found prove the connection beyond doubt. For example, the omnipresence of the Holy Spirit is often associated with all the earth -- "the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth." (Rev 5:6) More examples can be found in the Creation account.
The Trinity Code that is concealed in the first chapter of Genesis took my breadth away!
Glory to God!
