Bible Scripture Reading for Sunday 9 July 2011

"Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on 9 July 2011"

Today's Blog Title: "A Psalm of Ultimate Victory"
Today's Scripture Reading: Psalm 87:1-7
Today's Key Verse: Psalm 87:7 "Both the singers and the players on instruments say, "all my springs are in you."

Psalm 87 is one of the collections from the sons of Korah.  It is a intensely evangelistic psalm that anticipates the New Testament mission to resent the gospel to the entire world.  This song of Zion speaks prophetically of the time when Zion really will be the center of the universal kingdom of the Messiah.

Zion is God's elect city, a place where even the Gentiles are gathered, and a source of new life in God's kingdom.  In closing this psalm affirms God's love for Jerusalem.  One day the nations will honor the Lord and Zion will be praised.

Today's Hymn: "Count Your Blessings"

Are you burdened with  a load of care? Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly, and you will keep singing as the days go by
Count your blessings name them one by one, count your blessing see what God Hath done
Count your blessings name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord hath done

Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, how thankful we are that we have someone who is there for us at all times.  How thankful we are of your promises to those that have believed in you as there Lord and Savior.  How we look forward to the day when we as Christians will be part of the new heaven and the new earth.  Help us Lord to daily count the many blessings that you bestow upon us and may we in return give you all the praise and glory.
                                                                                                                            Amen

Today's Biblical Truth: "Zion is holy because of God's declaration, His promise, the worship given Him there, the future work of the Savior there, and the future rule of the King there"
