The Lord Alone Is God



"Praise be to the Lord," Jethro said, "for he has saved you from the Egyptians and from Pharoah. He has rescued Israel from the power of Egypt! I know now that the Lord is greater than all other gods, because his people have escaped from the proud and cruel Egyptians." (Exodus 18:10-11)(NLT)


Today we live in an age of pluralism where loyalty to one creed is condemned as intolerant. But we know Jethro's confession to be true that "the Lord is greater than all other gods." If we are not worshiping the Lord alone, then we are serving idols, for there is only one true God. Turn away from the false gods in your life today and worship our great God and heavenly King. He alone is worthy.


O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth. You have set your glory above the heavens. No one is greater than You, O God. We praise you, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, for you are the Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer of your people. We worship you, for you alone are God, and there is no other.


(from the Praise and Worship Study Bible by Tyndale House)

Psalm 122:1

I rejoiced with those who said to me, "Let us go to the house of the Lord." (HCSB)
