WHO HAS A MIGHTY HAND LIKE OUR GOD? Click and read.

O Lord God of Hosts, who is a strong Lord like unto thee? Or to thy faithfulness round about thee? Thou rulest the raging sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them. Thou has a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand. (Psalm 89:8-9, 13)

Boasting is really not one of my strong points but on this occasion I recommend we take a jolly boasting ride. The verses we will be looking at today are nothing short of amazing. It starts with a declaration and an affirmation of who is being praised. “O Lord God of Hosts! Wow that is what He is. He is Lord. He is God of any being you can think of. He made all things and controls all things. I join in asking the question. 

“Who is a strong Lord like our Almighty? Who can you seemingly compare our Lord to? I know the answer is an emphatic nobody. Hallelujah to that! Let me ask you, who can create a life like our Lord? Who is he that sits enthroned above the circle of the earth? Who can say like our God that heaven is His throne and the earth is His footstool? Who is He that can match His majesty? Can you manage to create a little finger talk more of creating a full human being? Who can boast of having a pinch of His strength? Hmm! No one can.

“Or to thy faithfulness round about thee?” God is the embodiment of faithfulness. Faithfulness is an attribute that many struggle to claim that they possess. People can disappoint at any time whether they planned it or not. For instance, appointments can be cancelled! Promises are sometimes broken and many other scenarios but nobody can beat our God on the subject of faithfulness. His faithfulness is evident from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same. He put the sun in the sky and also the moon that regulates the tides. I don’t know about you but I’m already dancing around because I know who I believe in and I am more than persuaded.

“Thou rulest the raging sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them”. The Lord rules the raging sea. Who has better rule over the sea than the One who made the seas and the oceans? He is the same Lord that spoke to the tempest when the disciples found themselves in the boat. He is the One that can say “Peace be still” and it will stand. Today we can access victory continually when we use His beautiful name. At the mention of the name of Jesus situations turn around in our favour.  I am excited that I have access to that name. There are times in our lives that there are representative raging seas. I want to assure you today that you can call on the Lord and He will indeed calm every raging sea in your life and He will be glorified.

“Thou has a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.” I think you need to take out time to say it out loud and let it sink in. Our God has a mighty arm. He has a strong hand. His right hand is above. That means the position of His hand superceeds all others. Please walk around with this confidence in Jesus name. It is well with you. Let no challenge intimidate you again because you know who is with you.
