Purpose Planned

Read:  Psalm 4 / Proverbs 10 / Isaiah 14 /John 3

Psalm 4:6-8 Many… say, Who will show us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us. Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.
Proverbs 10:28 The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
Isaiah 14:24 The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand.
John 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease.

The wicked have not understood
That God alone gives satisfaction.
The Lord has shown us what is good
And turns our hearts from vain distraction. 

The counsel of the Lord shall stand,
And every lying tongue shall cease. 
Behold the purpose He has planned:   
Our Savior’s kingdom shall increase!
