Daily Bible Verse - 8/5/2007 - Exodus 15:11

Who among the gods is like you, O LORD ? Who is like you- majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?

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

Who is like You among the gods, O LORD? Who is like You, majestic in holiness, Awesome in praises, working wonders?

Exodus 15:11

Commentary
"Who is like You" - Many times, the Bible uses this language of incomparability to describe the true God. In a world in which there were many supposed gods, the Lord was unique. He alone is God. He is not just better than other gods; there are no other gods. No person, god, or thing can be compared to the one true God (Ps. 96:4, 5; Is. 40:25, 26; Mic. 7:18). Fearful means that God inspired wonder, worship, and obedience from the Israelites.

Daily Bible Verse - 8/4/2007 - Psalm 37:4

Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart.

Psalm 37:4

Commentary
Find all your joy and pleasure in His will. Make Him your delight, and your desires will be in His will. Living to please the Lord sets you free from fretting about what men are doing.

Did you know?
Psalm 37 is one of several alphabetical psalms (Ps. 9 and 10 together; 25; 34; 37; 111; 112; 119; 145). In Hebrew each succeeding verse begins with the next letter of the alphabet. The Hebrew alphabet has 22 letters, so these psalms should have 22 verses. In Psalm 37 every other He brew line begins alphabetically, but there aren't 44 verses because some of the English verses are so long they break the pattern.
