Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. He rides upon the heaven. There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky. Deuteronomy 33, 26. Chapter 33 of Deuteronomy contains the last recorded words of a truly great man, Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face.
Many times Moses had addressed the people of Israel with mixed blessing and warning, listing conditions for blessing and the inevitable results of rejecting God's plan. But here, as he prepared for his impending death, Moses spoke only of God's majestic character and the privileges of those who serve him. The God of Jesharon, literally upright, here a symbolic name for Israel, is an active God, for He rides in His Excellency across the heaven to help us, as we see in our text. He strongly acts on our behalf. The eternal God is our refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms.
He is not like the gods of the heathen who do nothing.
Next, he is the god of grandeur. Here he rides across the sky and the heavens. Elsewhere we are told that he rideth upon the heavens of heavens. He walks and flies upon the wings of the wind. The Lord hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
Finally, God is eternal. The eternal God with everlasting arms assures us of eternal victory. I am He that liveth and was dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore. Amen. And have the keys of hell and of death.
Such was Moses' God and the God whom we serve today, the one who showers us with incomparable blessings. Indeed, who is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord, to have such a one as our God? It couldn't stop. If you've enjoyed today's devotional, be sure to subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts. And please rate and review so more listeners can find us.
