God is Higher and Stronger Than Anything I Face

God is higher and stronger than anything I face.

Yet, I still struggle with this truth—and it is the truth.

Because when facing huge obstacles, hard circumstances, great loss, and even spiritual warfare, I sometimes falter.

I remember when my kids were young, now my young grandchildren, and how they rely on their parents and adults to help them face anything. Perhaps moving and going to a new school, making friends, or a medical trauma.

Likewise, I need reminding how my heavenly Father is higher and stronger in the difficult things I face.

God is Higher: Than Anything I Face

God is higher than people, things, other gods, the enemy, circumstances, and me. Why? Because He is holy. He’s the one true God. The Almighty. God is the only one who saves us.

He is high and lifted up. And the train of His robe fills the temple (Isaiah 6:1).

“God is holy means there is no trace of evil in his character. Only God is holy.” (The Blue Letter Bible)

Exodus 15:11 reiterates it, “Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?” (ESV)

No created being or false god can take on God’s identity. The Great One. The Most High. The Lord remains unequaled in name and in who He is. God Almighty is matchless!

So, look up!
