Christ's Commission

Read:  Psalm 52 / Proverbs 27 / Isaiah 62 /Romans 2

 

Psalm 52:1 Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually.

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

Isaiah 62:6 I have set watchmen… which… never hold their peace… ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence.

Romans 2:16 God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

 

Boast not yourself, O mighty man,

Against the truth that you malign. 

Our God, according to His plan,

Is magnifying His design. 

 

The watchmen God has set in place

Shall speak and never hold their peace.

They preach the Gospel of His grace,

For Christ’s commission shall not cease. 

Proclaim it to the Prison

Read:  Psalm 51 / Proverbs 26 / Isaiah 61 /Romans 1

 

Psalm 51:2 Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

Proverbs 26:2 So the curse causeless shall not come.

Isaiah 61:1 The LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek… to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound.

Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

 

Let Gospel tidings be proclaimed

To those in prison who are bound. 

Be ready and be unashamed

To preach our Gospel’s joyful sound! 

 

Salvation washes thoroughly

The sinners who had once been cursed. 

Our Savior sets the captives free

And satisfies their longing thirst!  

Global Gospel

Read:  Psalm 50 / Proverbs 25 / Isaiah 60 /Acts 28

 

Psalm 50:1 The mighty God… hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.

Proverbs 25:25 As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.

Isaiah 60:1,3 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee… and the Gentiles shall come to thy light.  

Acts 28:28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.

 

 

The mighty God has surely spoken

And called the nations to repent. 

The Scripture never shall be broken

By which His Gospel has been sent.

 

Let God’s ambassadors arise

And shine the light of His salvation! 

Though some may choose to close their eyes, 

God sends His Word to every nation.
