Isaiah 40:15-18

“Behold, the nations are like a drop from a bucket, and are accounted as the dust on the scales; behold, he takes up the coastlands like fine dust. Lebanon would not suffice for fuel, nor are its beasts enough for a burnt offering. All the nations are as nothing before him, they are accounted by him as less than nothing and emptiness. To whom then will you liken God, or what likeness compare with him?”

God is more significant than everything else that exists put together!

As Isaiah gropes for a way to compare all the nations of the earth to God, he keeps going to greater extremes to find a fitting comparison. Compared to God they are “like a drop from a bucket…the dust on the scales…fine dust…not enough for a burnt offering…as nothing before him…less than nothing…emptiness”.

Finally, when he cannot make the comparison any more extreme, he says, “To whom then will you liken God, or what likeness compare with him?”

How foolish we are to ever put God on the sideline in our lives!

Put God first, and your life will be as it should be: less stressed, more balanced, joyful and meaningful. When you obey his leading no matter what he is asking you to do, your joy of fulfilment will be completed in him.

MAKE IT PERSONAL

Where haven’t you put God first in your life? What could you do today to ensure that he takes his rightful place in that area?
