Who is Like the Lord?

Tonight the Lord kept me up and has me praying for Japan and the earthquakes. As I've been praying the words to Corey and Whitney Parnell's song keep running through my head:

Who is like the Lord?
What pen could tell His worth?
Eternally worthy, rock of salvation, holy and mighty to save
His faithfulness reaches the skies

We can't lift you high enough
And no song is good enough
Words fail to tell you the way that we love
Who is like the Lord our God
seated on the highest throne
Words fail to tell you the way that we love you

Who is like the Lord
What man could know his ways?
His goodness is endless
His mercy it saves us
His faithfulness reaches the skies

Lift up the name of Jesus higher
Lift up the name of the Lord

God is calling us to remember that He is God. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. HE IS STILL GOD.
As we remember who He is, then, yes, pray. Pray for His glory--that His glory would be displayed in the nation of Japan and the other places that have been and will be affected by this earthquake and tsunamis. Pray that His power and might would be displayed. Pray that He would do miracles. But mostly pray that people would come to know Him through this.
And in your prayers, don't pray lacking faith. NO! Remember who your God is! Remember, stand upon, and proclaim, "Who is like the Lord?" There is no one.
