Praise :
Isaiah 54:5 in Shabbat's prophetic portion applies to both Israel and to those who are grafted into Israel's olive tree in Messiah:
For your Creator is your Husband, YHWH of hosts is His name; and your Redeemer the Holy of Israel; He shall be called the God of the whole earth.
We praise You God the Son for becoming the Son of Man so that You could become our Kinsman-Redeemer (Isa. 44:6, 22; Luke 1:68; Heb. 2:14-18; Rev. 5:9).
Thank You Abba, for knowing us even before You created us in our mother's womb (Jer. 1:5).
In these very dangerous days for Your nation Israel, we rejoice that You constantly present Yourself as the Lord [YHWH] of hosts – that is, the Lord of heaven's armies (Isa. 47:4; 48:2; Rev. 19:11-16).
We rejoice that You, Lord Yeshua, are God of the whole earth today (Matt. 28:18; 1 Pet. 3:21-22).
Good Shepherd, thank You for opening our ears so that we can hear and follow You (John 10:27).
