Isaiah 40:25
Why Bother Worshiping Our Heavenly Father?
Do you ever wonder, “Why bother praising God?” If so, Isaiah 40:21-22; 25 explain why.
“Do you not know? Have you not heard?
Has it not been declared to you from the beginning?
Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth?
It is He who sits above the circle of the earth,
And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers,
Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain
And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in”
“‘To whom then will you liken Me, that I would be his equal?’ says the Holy One.”
God makes it clear that no one is equal to Him. He calls us to lift up our eyes and see the heavens He created as evidence of His power and glory.
What does this mean for us?
It means the God we worship is unequalled. He is before all things and above all things. Nothing is too difficult for God. We can and should look to Him in holy reverence, bow before Him, and offer Him our lives to use in whatever way He chooses for His glory.
Lord, I worship and praise You who are UNEQUALED. There is no one like You. You are wise and powerful beyond my imagination. To think that You care for me is beyond comprehension. Thank You for loving me, saving me, and preparing a place for me to be with You for eternity. I love You!

God demonstrated His unequaled nature in several ways in the Book of Acts, including the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the performance of miracles, the fulfillment of prophecy, and the rapid expansion of the church.

UNEQUALED
“‘To whom then will you liken Me
That I would be his equal?’ says the Holy One.”
Isaiah 40:25
In this powerful chapter of the Bible, God proclaims His greatness. The fact that no one is equal to Him should be a point of great comfort to us. God calls us to lift up our eyes and see the heavens He created and holds in place. They didn’t “happen” to fall into place. And, the same One who holds them in place, will hold us together. God is unequaled and our response is to bow down and worship Him.
Lord, You are UNEQUALED. There is no one deserving of praise, honor, and worship like You.
