The Everlasting Arms

 

Deuteronomy 33:24 And of Asher he said,
“Most blessed of sons be Asher;
    let him be the favorite of his brothers,
    and let him dip his foot in oil.
25 Your bars shall be iron and bronze,
    and as your days, so shall your strength be.
26 “There is none like God, O Jeshurun,
    who rides through the heavens to your help,
    through the skies in his majesty.
27 The eternal God is your dwelling place,
    and underneath are the everlasting arms
.
After giving them some harsh warnings, Moses gave the tribes of Israel blessings, tribe by tribe, then summarizing at the end.  There is no other like God. He is not limited by time, land, or space. He rules from heaven, yet He holds his people in his powerful but compassionate arms.  It's quite a picture. Moses goes on to say that the Lord would be the one to give them success in battle and keep them in safety and peace in the promised land. There is no other like our God.
