Theists: Why does your god have such a huge ego?

When reading the bible, particularly the Old Testament, it seems as though God loves to show everyone how awesome he thinks he is by performing random displays of power. He also gets really mad and jealous of other gods when people worship them instead, and, also, he is very proud of his jealousy. Also, let's take a look at this thing we call the universe that he created, presumably just by speaking with his invisible tongue and/or with a snap of his invisible fingers. This thing (the universe) is unbelievably HUUUUUUUUUGE, a size that is far, far, far, far beyond the comprehension of any human being. And why did he create a universe so large? Well, the most common answer from religious folks is that he did it to glorify himself. Basically, an incredibly large, ever-expanding, cosmic Trump Tower?
