Most High (LORD)

the prophecy of one who hears the words of God, who has knowledge from the Most High, who sees a vision from the Almighty, who bows down with eyes wide open:

When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, when He divided the sons of man, He set the boundaries of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.

The LORD thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded.

When my enemies retreat, they stumble and perish before You.

He shot His arrows and scattered the foes; He hurled lightning and routed them.

Your hand will apprehend all Your enemies; Your right hand will seize those who hate You.

God is within her; she will not be moved. God will help her when morning dawns.

He subdues nations beneath us, and peoples under our feet.

Sacrifice a thank offering to God, and fulfill your vows to the Most High.

He reaches down from heaven and saves me; He rebukes those who trample me. Selah God sends forth His loving devotion and His truth.

The wicked say, “How can God know? Does the Most High have knowledge?”

I will remember the works of the LORD; yes, I will remember Your wonders of old.

But they continued to sin against Him, rebelling in the desert against the Most High.

But they tested and disobeyed God Most High, for they did not keep His decrees.

I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’

And it will be said of Zion: “This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High Himself will establish her.”

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

Because you have made the LORD your dwelling—my refuge, the Most High—

to proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning and Your faithfulness at night

because they rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.

I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”

to deny a man justice before the Most High,

Do not both adversity and good come from the mouth of the Most High?

Then Nebuchadnezzar approached the door of the blazing fiery furnace and called out, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out!” So Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the fire,

He called out in a loud voice: ‘Cut down the tree and chop off its branches; strip off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the beasts flee from under it, and the birds from its branches.

whose foliage was beautiful and whose fruit was abundant, providing food for all, under which the beasts of the field lived, and in whose branches the birds of the air nested—

you, O king, are that tree! For you have become great and strong; your greatness has grown to reach the sky, and your dominion extends to the ends of the earth.

Twelve months later, as he was walking on the roof of the royal palace of Babylon,

While the words were still in the king’s mouth, a voice came from heaven: “It is decreed to you, King Nebuchadnezzar, that the kingdom has departed from you.

As for you, O king, the Most High God gave your father Nebuchadnezzar sovereignty and greatness, glory and honor.

He was driven away from mankind, and his mind was like that of a beast. He lived with the wild donkeys and ate grass like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven until he acknowledged that the Most High God rules over the kingdom of mankind, setting over it whom He wishes.

But the saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom and possess it forever—yes, forever and ever.’

until the Ancient of Days arrived and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for them to possess the kingdom.

He will speak out against the Most High and oppress the saints of the Most High, intending to change the appointed times and laws; and the saints will be given into his hand for a time, and times, and half a time.

Then the sovereignty, dominion, and greatness of the kingdoms under all of heaven will be given to the people, the saints of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will serve and obey Him.’

My people are bent on turning from Me. Though they call to the Most High, He will by no means exalt them.
