Psalm 113
Day 113: Be blessed!
There are days like today when I need to declare some faith statement, like this one:
Who is like the Lord our God …?
Maybe you need to join with me…
Feeling weakened ….who is like the Lord our God?
Jehovak-m’kaddesh (Lev 20:8 The Lord who sanctifies) = He lives within us to empower us to live holy lives.
Feeling away from God …who is like the Lord our God?
Jehovah-Shalom (judges 6:24 God is Peace) = God has brought peace and contentment and satisfaction between Himself and us.
In sickness …who is like the Lord our God?
Jehovah-Rophe (Isaiah 53 God heals) = He cures or heals not only in physical terms but spiritual and moral)
Needing provision …who is like the Lord our God?
Jehovah-Jireh (Genesis 22:14 The Lord who sees) = He knows our needs and makes provision.
Weary from battling …who is like the Lord our God?
Jehovak-nissi (Exodus 17:18 God my banner) = God is our battle deliverer.
Not knowing what to do …who is like the Lord our God?
Jehovah-rohi (Psalm 23 God my Shepherd) = He feeds, leads, protects and cares for us.
Who is like Him and where is He? 1 John 4:4 He that is in you is greater than He that is in the world!!
Sometimes we live our lives like He just has the edge over the devil. He’s just a little greater.
But God in you is much more significant, far superior, cannot be compared to the god of this world.
All that thrills my soul is Jesus;
He is more than life to me;
And the fairest of ten thousand,
In my blessed Lord I see.

Who is like the Lord our God? The answer is no one!
This is our faith statement today and that is why we are blessed!
Missions Paul 
This is one of those ‘Count your blessings’ Psalms isn’t it?
Praise the Lord from the moment you wake up until you lay down? Don’t really feel like it!
The LORD is exalted over all. Yes, I know, but I don’t particularly feel it just now.
Who is like the LORD our God? You’re right, no one.
Hang on, look what He has done, in the lives of His people over the centuries. In my life, in the lives of my friends, my family. The poor raised up, the needy provided for, the barren given children.
Yes, He doesn’t just stoop and look down, He meets His people at the point of their need.
PRAISE THE LORD.
