Exodus 15:11-13 "Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them. Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation."
We find the question above posed throughout the scriptures in various circumstances. It is one we do well to consider in our daily life. Who is like the LORD unto us. The obvious answer should be that there is no one and nothing that is like the LORD. Yet, we will eventually find the children of Israel making strange gods for themselves. This begs the question, have we made gods for ourselves?
God is glorious in His holiness (1 Samuel 2:2). There is no corruption found in Him, and His will is right. He is worthy of our reverential hymns. He deserves to have songs written about Him and sung to Him. Only God created the heavens and the earth and the fullness thereof. Only God can create in us a clean heart (Psalms 51:10).
The LORD has only to stretch forth His hand and our enemies are swallowed up. When we are alone and afraid, it only takes a whisper from the Holy Spirit to calm our fears. In great turmoil, it only takes a glimpse of His presence to bring us deep peace. In our heaviest sorrows, His love can lift us up in hope.
Dear ones, there is none like the LORD. He has redeemed us from bondage and delivered us from the law of sin and death. He has led us about by His unfailing mercy so that we might worship Him. It is by His strength alone that we can enter His holy habitation. Let us lift our voices in His praise!
