Messianic Mediator

Read:  Psalm 50 / Proverbs 27 / Ezekiel 44 / 1 Tim. 2

 

Psalm 50:5,14 ~ Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice… Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High.

Proverbs 27:11 ~ My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.

Ezekiel 44:27,28 ~ He… shall offer his sin offering, saith the Lord GOD. And it shall be unto them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance… I am their possession.

1 Timothy 2:5,6 ~ For there is one God, and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus; who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

 

We gather round our great Creator

To thank Him for His sacrifice.

Our Messianic Mediator

Has ransomed us at such a price!

 

As we consider this great treasure

That makes the Savior our Possession,

We ought to live to give Him pleasure

Since Jesus died for our transgression.

My Savior and My Story

Psalm 49:5,15 ~ Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil?... But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave.

Proverbs 26:2,10 ~ The curse causeless shall not come… The great God that formed all things… rewardeth transgressors.  

Ezekiel 43:2,3 ~ Behold, the glory of the God of Israel came… the earth shined with his glory… and I fell upon my face.

1 Timothy 1:14,15 ~ And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.

Hebrews 9:27 ~And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

 

It seems astonishing to say

That there’s no cause for me to fear

As I approach the judgment day

When I shall with the Lord appear.

 

The prophets fell upon their face,

Yet I shall stand before His glory,

For Christ redeemed me by His grace!

This is my Savior and my story.

Messengers who Measure

Read:  Psalm 48 / Proverbs 25 / Ezekiel 42 / 2 Thes. 3

 

Psalm 48:9-13 ~ We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple… Walk about Zion… Mark ye well her bulwarks… that ye may tell it to the generation following.

Proverbs 25:12,13 ~ As an earring of gold… so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear… so is a faithful messenger.

2 Thessalonians 3:3 ~ But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.

 

We search the depths of God’s great love

As we are guided by His Word

With God’s perspective, far above

What eyes have seen and ears have heard.

 

As messengers we hold the treasure

Of God’s prophetic truth unveiled

With faithfulness that we can measure:

His promises have never failed.

2 Thessalonians 2:14 ~ Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Let all creation be explored

With understanding as we sing: 

Behold the Man, our Kindred Lord!

Behold the Lion, Christ our King!

 

We see His glory on display

Engraved on walls which tell His story

As Man and Lion which portray

The Gospel of our Savior’s glory.

2 Thessalonians 1:10 ~ When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.

The Lord commands us to be still

And contemplate the end of things,

Since Christ is God and surely will

Be worshiped as the King of kings.

 

So let this be our declaration

That hearts may seek Him while they may

As we proclaim His great salvation

And warn as well of judgment day.

The scepter of the Lord is right;

He rules forever on His throne.

They shall discover they were wrong.

Our faithful God extends His warning,

And still His saving hand is strong.

The Rapture Then Return

Read:  Psalm 44 / Proverbs 21 / Ezekiel 38 / 1 Thes. 4 

 

Psalm 44:7,8 ~ But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us. In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.

Ezekiel 38:23 ~ Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.

1 Thessalonians 4:16 ~ For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first.

 

We boast in Jesus Christ alone

As we fulfill His great commission.

We make His great salvation known

By which we have escaped perdition.

 

We know that Jesus shall return

To reign, as Scripture prophesies, 

Yet for His rapture first we yearn

When those who sleep in Christ shall rise.
