Praise:
Do we know that God chose us for the same two reasons why He chose Israel? As we read in Deuteronomy 7:7-8, He chose Israel and us because of His love (John 3:16; 1 John 4:9; plus others) and to keep the oath He had sworn unto Israel's fathers, that in their Seed the families of the world would be blessed (Gen. 12:3b; 22:18 [Abraham]; 26:4 [Isaac]; 28:14 [Jacob]; cp. Gal. 3:8).
-
King Yeshua, we rejoice at how the root of Israel's olive tree, Your promises to Israel's forefathers, is the theological foundation for the Body of Messiah, both Jew and gentile (Rom. 11:17-18; 15:8-12).
-
Abba Father, Your love and Your faithfulness to Your promises are so encouraging to us, and we bless and praise You being our God (Psa. 36:5; 119:75; Lam. 3:23; 1 Cor. 10:13; 2 Thess. 3:3).
-
Thank You Messiah, that You are our merciful and faithful High Priest (Heb. 2:17; Rev. 1:5).
-
King of kings, Messiah Yeshua, we rejoice that as Your essential nature is to be both faithful and True, You are thus able to judge and make war in holy righteousness (Rev. 19:11).
-
Lord God, thank You that we can love You – yet only because You first loved us (1 John 4:19).
