(Passages that we will refer to in next Sunday's worship)
__ Ezekiel 46
God of Grace, we long for the fullness of Sabbath rest that has been won for us through the work of Jesus Christ. His offering of Himself for us will be a testimony in Your Kingdom forever. We thank You for this great Prince, the Captain of our salvation. Will we actually be able to see Him in the temple above? We know that we will, for You have assured us that we will see Him as He is. We will fall before Him with the great joy of heavenly worship. O Father, we do not understand the things of heaven as we ought to. We do know that we are the property of Your Son. We are a part of Your glorious inheritance in the saints. We strain to understand the pictures of heaven presented to us in Your Scriptures. We so easily misinterpret Your Word. We humbly beseech You, take us, one day, to be with You, so that we can see You.
__ Psalm 43
Almighty King, You are not intimidated by strong men with evil intentions. Well-armed nations with thousands of soldiers do not impress You, no matter how powerful and wicked they may be. You are above them all. We will praise You forever. Our hope is in You alone.
__ Psalm 2
Glorious Creator, this world is full of powerful enemies who oppress Your people and reject the Messiah. Your power is far above all that You have created. You have secured the position of Your Son as King of kings. All the world should kiss Your Son, lest they perish.
