S) "5 Who is like the Lord our God,
Who is enthroned on high,
6 Who humbles Himself to behold
The things that are in heaven and in the earth?"
Psalm 113:5-6 (NASB)
O) The LORD is wonderfully unique. During this period, atheism was not a thing, really. Everyone understood and accepted, that the supernatural was normal and real, albeit mysterious. Everyone believed that the gods they worshiped were real - every bit as real as the LORD. But, one thing that made the LORD unique, was that He actually brought Himself low, to hear His people, to see their lives. This is evidence of something greater, though. This is evidence that the LORD lives! He is the only true, living God.
A) What a humbling reminder of the love that our Father God holds for His creation! In the few verses prior to this passage, we're reminded that the glory of the LORD our God is beyond the heavens - it's past outer space! Even in His vast and infinite existence, He is intimately aware of the minute details of our finite struggles. I am humbled and full of praise and thanksgiving.
P) Father, there is no one like You. I am humbled by Your presence in my life. You distinguished Yourself as the only True God, long ago, because no other god would respond to its worshipers. You see me, Lord. You hear me when I call upon You. When I seek You, I find You - but You find me also. I was never hidden from Your sight, and Your grace upon me was from the beginning of my very life. Hear my worship of You, LORD, and let the earth hear my praise of You. In Jesus's name I pray. Amen.
