Of course, the answer is simple…
Who Is Like You, O Lord?
===
“Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?
Exodus 15:11 (ESV)
===
For context:
This is a song of celebration, after the Israelites escape the enslavement from the Egyptians.
The ten plagues God caused were a devastating display of His power above all the gods of the Egyptians.
The most powerful nation on earth was humbled by the Lord.
Recently, I’ve started a lot of my prayers with the Lord’s Prayer as a model.
You know, “Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name…”
I’m not reciting the prayer, it’s not a rote thing, I’m using the categories Jesus gave to refocus me in my morning prayer time.
This first line reminds me to honor, praise, & glorify God the Father because He is worthy.
The cares of this world -- and I do have plenty of cares to keep my mind occupied -- tend to melt away when I refocus on Him.
After all, who is like God?
That’s the main question in the book of Micah (by the way, Micah’s name literally means “who is like God?”) It’s the main question at the center of this praise song in Exodus too.
It’s a great question for us to ponder as we begin our days.
Who is like God? Who deserves the praise of the universe? Who delivers sinners into eternal life? Who gave His life so we can be restored?
Of course, the answer is simple:
There is no one like our God.
