Who is like You?

Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? – Exodus 15.11

Indeed, who is like the Lord? Who is like Him in character and in action? Who is like Him in holiness and fearful in praised and who is like Him in doing great wonders?

And h the question is still here for us thousands of years later. Is there anyone like our God?

Of course this is mostly a rhetorical question. Everyone who knows God knows that there is no one like Him. No one can claim to be glorious in holiness. We are called to be holy, but our holiness will never be compared to His.

No one else inspires awe in our praises. With anyone but our God there is no one who does not deserve some criticism.

Of course no one compares to the wonders that He has already done, that He does today, and that He will do for all eternity. Man doesn’t even come close. The longer we go the more man accomplishes and man is doing some wonderful things in his technology. Who would have thought even a few years ago that we would make the advancements we have made?

There is none like God. There is none like Him in His holiness and His glory and His marvellous works. And there is none like Him in His love and mercy. Michael Smith words it well in his simple little chorus.

There is none like You.
No one else can touch my heart like You do,
I can search for all eternity Lord
And find, there is none like You.

Your mercy flows like a river so wide,
And healing comes from Your hand.
Suffering children are safe in Your arms,

There is none like You.
