I’d like to share a few verses with you about God.
They share a common theme: what God is like.
To love and worship God properly, we need to know what He is like.
Let’s start with Psalm 113:4-6. Here are three verses about our incredible God:
4 The LORD is high above all nations,
and his glory above the heavens!
5 Who is like the LORD our God,
who is seated on high,
6 who looks far down
on the heavens and the earth?
Psalm 113:4-6
What is God like? This passage teaches us the breathtaking truth that God is incomparable. He is in a league of his own. No one else and nothing else even comes close. The psalmist presents this truth in the form of a question: “Who is like the LORD our God?” (v. 5a).
This question is not original with the author of Psalm 113. It appears repeatedly in Scripture. We don’t know the name of this psalmist, but we do know the names of other Old Testament believers who asked this question.
Exodus 15:11 – MOSES asked this question.
Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods?
Who is like you, majestic in holiness,
awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?
Psalm 35:10 – DAVID asked this question.
All my bones shall say,
“O Lord, who is like you,
delivering the poor
from him who is too strong for him,
the poor and needy from him who robs him?”
Psalm 89:6-7 – ETHAN asked this question.
6 For who in the skies can be compared to the Lord?
Who among the heavenly beings is like the Lord,
7 a God greatly to be feared in the council of the holy ones,
and awesome above all who are around him?
Isaiah 40:18 – ISAIAH asked this question.
To whom then will you liken God,
or what likeness compare with him?
There is one more Person who asks this question.
Jeremiah 50:44 – GOD HIMSELF asked this question.
For who is like me? Who will summon me? What shepherd can stand before me?
This is a rhetorical question – the answer is so obvious, the speakers don’t even give the answer.
There are other verses that do answer this question, presenting the truth of God’s incomparability as a statement rather than a question.
Exodus 8:10 — MOSES
Moses said, “Be it as you say, so that you may know that there is no one like the Lord our God.
2 Samuel 7:22 — DAVID
Therefore you are great, O Lord God. For there is none like you, and there is no God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
2 Chronicles 6:14 — SOLOMON
O Lord, God of Israel, there is no God like you, in heaven or on earth, keeping covenant and showing steadfast love to your servants who walk before you with all their heart.
What is God like? He is incomparable. He’s in a class by Himself.
This is reason to worship Him and only Him . . . forever!
Or right now.
Before you do anything else, why not take a few moments to express your praise and adoration to the One who is unlike anyone? There is no better way to spend your time. Amen?
