THERE IS NO ONE LIKE YOU, LORD
Keywords 17:23b-24aDo as you promised, 24 so that it will be established and that your name will be great forever.
1. Who am I, LORD God? (16-22)
King David was awestruck by God’s promises to him. He prayed with gratitude and humility. David deeply understood both the depth of his unworthiness and the amazing grace and promises God had made. In a world full of false gods, David saw that there is no one like the LORD God of Israel. God had miraculously redeemed Israel. God performed great wonders to drive out the nations. God made Israel his own people forever. Let’s also remember God’s amazing promises for us.
2. May God’s name be great forever (23-27)
David knew well the broader purpose of God’s personal promises to him. God would establish David’s kingdom and a dynasty. Through this God would make his name great forever. He prayed that people would know the LORD Almighty. He prayed his house would continue forever so that people down through the generations would know God. God accomplished this through Jesus Christ.
Prayer Lord God, who am I that you have
brought me this far? Thank you for saving your people and me through Jesus.
Help us exalt your name.
One Word Thank God for what he has done
