Triumphant Titles

Read:  Psalm 112 / Proverbs 2 / Judges 3 / Matthew 1

Psalm 112:4 ~ Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious…  full of compassion, and righteous.

Proverbs 2:4,5 ~ If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.

Judges 3:28 ~ Follow after me: for the LORD hath delivered your enemies… into your hand.

Matthew 1:21,23 ~ She shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins… and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

 

The light of God’s compassion shined

When we were rescued by His favor.

How great the treasures are we find  

In Jesus our triumphant Savior!  

 

His titles are victorious,

In view of their interpretation:

Emmanuel is “God with Us”,

And Jesus is “The Lord’s Salvation.”

The Call To Come

Read:  Psalm 111 / Proverbs 1 / Judges 2 / Revelation 22

 

Psalm 111:10 ~ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth forever.

Proverbs 1:7 ~ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Judges 2:2 ~ Ye shall make no league with… this land… but ye have not obeyed my voice: why have ye done this?

Revelation 22:14,17 ~ Blessed are they that do his commandments… And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

 

The fear of God has its beginning

In those who hear Him and obey,

But those who choose to go on sinning

Are fools who cast His Word away. 

 

We’re pilgrims in a land that’s cursed;

By all means let us rescue some! 

We call to all who are athirst;

The Spirit and the bride say, Come!

Power to Proclaim

Read:  Psalm 110 / Proverbs 31 / Judges 1 / Revelation 21

 

Psalm 110:3 ~ Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.

Proverbs 31:8,9 ~ Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.  Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.

Judges 1:22 ~ The house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el: and the LORD was with them.

Revelation 21:3 ~ Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

 

There is a coming day of power

When Christ shall reign in all the earth.

Yet even in this present hour,

We are empowered by new birth. 

 

The Lord is with us in each place,

The east, the west, the north, and south,

With power to proclaim His grace

As we declare it with our mouth!

The Praise of the Poor

Read:  Psalm 109 / Proverbs 30 / Joshua 24 / Revelation 20

 

Psalm 109:30,31 ~ I will greatly praise the LORD… For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from those that condemn his soul.

Proverbs 30:5 ~ Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

Joshua 24:14,15 ~ Fear the LORD… serve him in sincerity and in truth… as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.  

Revelation 20:6 ~ Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

 

I see the place where Jesus stands:

He’s at the right hand of the poor.

In my defense, He shows His hands; 

He does not need to argue more. 

 

I am the poor man He defends! 

I’ll serve Him with sincerity.

I am the sinner He befriends! 

I’ll praise my Lord eternally.

The Choice To Cherish

Read:  Psalm 108 / Proverbs 29 / Joshua 23 / Revelation 19

 

Psalm 108:1 ~ O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

Proverbs 29:18 ~ Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

Joshua 23:11 ~ Take good heed therefore unto yourselves, that ye love the LORD your God.

Revelation 19:7,8 ~ Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready… arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

 

My heart is fixed, so I will cherish

The Lord who gave Himself for me. 

Without Him I would surely perish

In hopelessness eternally!

 

I’ve made my choice to love the Lord

Who clothed me in His righteousness. 

I’ve fixed my heart on the reward

Of His approval, nothing less!

Redeemed and Rescued

Read:  Psalm 107 / Proverbs 28 / Joshua 22 / Revelation 18

 

Psalm 107:2,43 ~ Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy… Whoso is wise… they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.

Proverbs 28:13 ~ He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.

Joshua 22:5 ~ Take diligent heed… to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart. 

Revelation 18:4 ~ Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. 

 

Let all who are redeemed now say

That Christ has been victorious!

All we like sheep had gone astray,

But Jesus died to rescue us!

 

Now since we know the awful price

That Jesus paid to cleanse our heart, 

Let us abandon every vice

From which He calls us to depart.

Faithful Facts

Read:  Psalm 106 / Proverbs 27 / Joshua 21 / Revelation 17

 

Psalm 106:2 ~ Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can shew forth all his praise?

Proverbs 27:1 ~ Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.

Joshua 21:45 ~ There failed not… any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.

Revelation 17:14 ~ The Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings.

 

We cannot utter all the praise

Describing all God’s mighty acts,

For we are weak and few of days,

Yet we declare the faithful facts. 

 

For every promise God has made

Was kept in time; not one has failed.

Prophetic future was displayed

Which came to pass when Christ prevailed.
