Your name, Lord, endures forever,

your renown, Lord, through all generations.

Psalm 135:13

God has no equal. No rivals. No shortages. No needs. He is before all things, and at the end of the day, He will be the last one standing. The world is filled with “little g” gods, but our God made the heavens and the earth. No one compares to Him. No one even comes close.

So, as you wait on Him today, give Him praise. Maybe your circumstances appear to be upside down, but His throne is decidedly right-side up! Praise Him in the waiting. Exalt Him in the wondering. So don’t ask for much today. Just keep lifting up the Name above every name. Let that Name ground your heart and still your soul. Let your praise drown out all others who contend for your allegiance and affection. When you do, your very song will lift your thoughts to the very highest place.

MEDITATION

Glory in the Highest

You are the first

You go before

You are the last

Lord, You’re the encore

Your name’s in lights for all to see

The starry host declare Your glory

Glory in the highest

Apart from You there is no god

Light of the world

The Bright and Morning Star

Your name will shine for all to see

You are the One

You are my glory

And no one else could ever compare

To You, Lord

All the earth together declares . . .

Glory in the highest . . . to You, Lord

All the earth will sing Your praise

The moon and stars, the sun and rain

Every nation will proclaim

That You are God and You will reign

Glory, glory hallelujah

Glory, glory to You, Lord

Glory, glory hallelujah

Hallelujah

Prayer

Father, what shall I say to You? You have no equal or rival. My words and my thoughts are so small when compared to You. I have seen the starry night and it cannot hold a candle to Your glory. Expand my faith and give me words as I seek to join the anthem of Your praise.

All praise is Yours, now and forever. I will walk in that truth today. I will believe it. And act like it. And pray like it. And give like it. And praise like there is none like You. Amen!

Scripture References

4But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

5to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.

26it is good to wait quietly

for the salvation of the

Lord

1The

Lord

is my light and my salvation—

whom shall I fear?

The

Lord

is the stronghold of my life—

of whom shall I be afraid?

2When the wicked advance against me

to devour me,

it is my enemies and my foes

who will stumble and fall.

3Though an army besiege me,

my heart will not fear;

though war break out against me,

even then I will be confident.

4One thing I ask from the

Lord

this only do I seek:

that I may dwell in the house of the

Lord

all the days of my life,

to gaze on the beauty of the

Lord

and to seek him in his temple.

5For in the day of trouble

he will keep me safe in his dwelling;

he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent

and set me high upon a rock.

6Then my head will be exalted

above the enemies who surround me;

at his sacred tent I will sacrifice with shouts of joy;

I will sing and make music to the

Lord

13Your name,

Lord

, endures forever,

your renown,

Lord

, through all generations.

10He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;

I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth.”

11The

Lord

Almighty is with us;

the God of Jacob is our fortress.

35Then Jesus declared,

“I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe.

All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away.

For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me.

And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise them up at the last day.

For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”

6But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:

“God opposes the proud

but shows favor to the humble.”

5In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because,

“God opposes the proud

but shows favor to the humble.”

6Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.

7Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
