Breath From God Means Life

Gen. 2:7 "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being."
Job 12:7-10 "But now ask the beasts, and they will
   teach you;
And the birds of the air, and they will
   tell you;
Or speak to the earth, and it will teach
   you;
And the fish of the sea will explain to
   you.
Who among all these does not know
That the hand of the Lord has done
   this,
In whose hand is the *life (soul) of every
   living thing,
And the breath of all mankind?"
Job 32:8 "But there is a spirit in man,
And the breath of the Almighty gives
   him understanding."
Job 33:4 "The Spirit of God has made me,
And the breath of the Almighty gives
   me life."
Job 34:12-15 "Surely God will never do wickedly,
Nor will the Almighty pervert justice.
Who gave Him charge over the earth?
Or who appointed Him over the whole
   world?
If He should set His heart on it,
If He should gather to Himself His
   Spirit and His breath,
All flesh would perish together,
And man would return to dust."
Psa. 33:6 "By the word of the Lord the heavens
   were made,
And all the host of them by the
   breath of His mouth."
Psa. 104:29 "You hide Your face, they are troubled;
You take away their breath, they die
   and return to their dust."
Psa. 144:4 "Man is like a breath;
His days are like a passing shadow."
Psa. 150:6 "Let everything that has breath praise
   the Lord.
*Praise the Lord! (Heb. Hallelujah)"
See (All Creation Praises God)
Dan. 5:23 "...and the God who holds your breath in His hand and owns all your ways, you have not glorified."
Acts 17:25 "Nor is He worshiped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things."
BibleNote: God's breath gives us life and understanding. Taken away all would die. Thus we should praise Him for all things.
