What’s in a song:
Who is there Like You
When as a Child I was told this to help bolster up, and help with my self worth. By having Faith in the Lord will help your self worth, giving greater motivation to over come what ever life throws at you. This is all, but truthfully this question is answered only by one. Because we all look different from each other. You’ll be told at some point you look just like or sound like you Mum or dad, as was told many times. For this study I have decided to post each verse separately.
Only God truly owns the title ‘Who is there like you’, for example of the one true God who created the Heavens and the Earth, you should read 1 Kings 18. Today I want delve deeper into the song ‘Who is there like you’.
1) Who is there like you?
And who else would give their life for me,
Even suffering in my place?
And who could repay you?
All of creation looks to you,
and you provide for all you have made.
2) So I’m lifting up my hands,
Lifting up my voice, lifting up your name,
and in your grace I’m blessed,
For your love has to come to me and set me free
I’m trusting in your Word.
3) Trusting in your cross, trusting in your blood,
All your faithfulness,
For your power at work in me, is
changing me Changing me
Psalms 35:10 “All my bones shall say, Lord, who is like You”
Well there you have it, even the Psalmist proclaims ..“who is like You” .. There truly is NO one like Him. The records have said No one before or since. Without artificial insemination has there been a child conceived this way. So whilst singing ‘Who is there like you’, Lord we reverently mean these words .. ‘And who else would give their life for me, Even suffering in my place? .. is there someone that is a total stranger to you, who you would free;y give your life for, just so that would not suffer, at all? That is what our Lord Jesus did for us. . .
Galatians 2:20 “ I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me”
.. There is no room for dead works, or these either .. ‘good living for a living’ .. or .. ‘Glorified Sunday social club’..having Christ in our lives is because we were lost sheep, and you have helped us to have a more fulfilling life, with in it. NO one could have ever done for us as you have.
‘And who could repay you? All of creation looks to you’
Isaiah 65:17-18 “ behold, I create new heavens and a new earth;And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind. 18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create”
There Scientists that are breaking down the DNA sequence, be it from us to Animals to plants, to tells what and why we do things. Just so they can tell us who things [us] were created, using all manner of machines/scopes/spectrographs. Well, us Christians, don’t need all these fancy and very expensive machines. For I have a personal relationship with the ‘Original-Creater of everything’, His name is, well of cause it’s God.
‘And you provide for all you have made’
Without doubt God created the Heavens & the Earth. [Genesis 1]. He created all the fish in the sea’s, and all their food there of. Like wise all the birds of the air, as well as all the various animals of the land that walk hop scurry & slither. `such as the Rattle snake to Scorpion, and from the Lion to the Rhino. The us, what God did do is to give us dominion over ALL of them Sea ~ Air & Land. . .
Psalms 104:14-18 “He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, And vegetation for the service of man, That he may bring forth food from the earth, 15 And wine that makes glad the heart of man, Oil to make his face shine, And bread which strengthens man’s heart. 16 The trees of the Lord are full of sap, The cedars of Lebanon which He planted, 17 Where the birds make their nests; The stork has her home in the fir trees. 18 The high hills are for the wild goats; The cliffs are a refuge for the rock badgers”
… so you it’s God who’ll provide all our needs from food on our tables; to the materials needed to create or build our homes; God has a hand in it all, from Architects to clothing designers. These are just a couple of people whom God gave talents to create . . .
Genesis 22:14 “And Abraham called the name of the place, The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided”
… even Abraham recognised Gods help when it came to harvest time, in all he did.
