Hymn
69 – The Great Redeemer
·
God
reigns as the Creator of all things; He reigns as Controller of this World, and
He seeks to reign in the life of each believer
·
Jesus
fulfilled the expectations of Old Testament scholars that - an authoritative Prophet would arise -
Elijah (the Power of God as was manifest in Elijah) would return - The Christ
(Messiah) would come
·
At
Christmas we think of Jesus Christ in all these roles – born in humility,
crucified in humanity, and to appear in glory – He will Reign as King of Kings
and Lord of Lords
·
If
we present a sacrifice (gift) of righteousness to God, He has promised to reign
in our lives, and we hold the hope to be preserved wholly - in spirit and soul
and body – until His return.
Hymn
94 – God Reigns Over
All
The LORD bless thee, and keep
thee: The LORD make his face shine upon
thee, and be gracious unto thee: The
LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. Numbers 6:24-26
