"To whom then will you
compare Me that I would be his equal?” says the Holy One. — Isaiah 40:25
We cannot compare God to
anyone or identify Him with anything. That is why He gave as the first
commandment:
"You shall have no
other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness
of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the
earth." — Exodus 20:3–4
Notice that today’s
meditation verse does not simply state "God says," but rather, "says
the Holy One." In other words, another name for our God is "The
Holy One." There may be various gods in this world, and they may be
called by many names, but our God alone is called the Holy One. This name fits
no other deity.
Indeed, there may be many
so-called gods and lords in the world. But for us, there is only one God, the
Holy One. He is the One who created us. Scripture tells us:
"For even if there are
so-called gods whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and
many lords, yet for us there is only one God, the Father, from whom are all
things, and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all
things, and we exist through Him." — 1 Corinthians 8:5–6
In some religions, deities
are categorized—one for knowledge, one for power, and another for bestowing
wealth. But our God is able to grant all things. Furthermore, He is the One who
sanctifies us. As it is written:
"For by Him all things
were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether
thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created
through Him and for Him." — Colossians 1:16
Moreover, our strength and
greatest privilege lie in the fact that this glorious God is always ready to
listen to our voice. This is why Moses asked:
"For what great nation
is there that has a god so near to it as is the LORD our God whenever we call
on Him?" — Deuteronomy 4:7
Yes, dear ones, the God who
is holy, almighty, and exalted above the heavens is our God.
"For it was fitting for
us to have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from
sinners and exalted above the heavens." — Hebrews 7:26
Since this is who He is, to
whom can we compare Him? Who can be made equal to Him? That is why Scripture
emphasizes that we should give no priority or worship to anyone or anything in
this world other than Him.
Let us listen to God’s voice
and live giving worship to Him alone. Only then can we live as His people and
rejoice in His true blessings.
