Advent Reading - December 5

(Note:  Several prophecies from Psalms.)

I anoint My king upon Zion.
I will proclaim concerning the statute,
Jehovah said to Me,
You are My Son, this day have I begotten Thee;
ask of Me, and I will give the nations
for Your inheritance,
and the ends of the earth for Your possession.
Kiss the Son, lest He be angry,
and you perish in the way;
Blessed are all they that put their trust in Him.
(Psalms 2:6-12)

Jehovah our Lord,
how magnificent is Your Name in all the earth,
giving to it honor above the heavens.
You hast caused Him to be a little less than the angels,
but You hast crowned Him with glory and honor;
You have made Him
to have dominion over the works of Your hands,
You have put all things under His feet.
(Psalms 8:1, 5, 6, 9)

Jehovah God said, Lo, I come;
in the roll of the Book it is written of Me.
(Psalms 40:7)

Out of Zion God shall shine forth;
our God shall come,
and shall not keep silence.
(Psalms 50:2, 3)

God shall come down like rain upon the herb.
He shall have dominion also from sea even to sea,
and from the river even to the ends of the earth.
The barbarians shall bow themselves down before Him,
and His enemies shall lick the dust;
the kings of Tarshish and of the isles
shall bring their present;
the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer their gift.
All kings shall bow themselves down to Him,
all nations shall serve Him;
for He shall deliver the miserable,
who has no helper.
He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence.
His Name shall be to eternity
He shall have the name of a Son before the sun,
and they shall be blessed in Him.
Blessed be God, the God of Israel;
blessed be the Name of His glory;
the whole earth shall be filled with His glory.
Amen and Amen.
(Psalms 72:1-19)

I have made a covenant with My Chosen.
Your seed will I establish even to eternity,
and I will build up Your throne
to generation and generation;
and the heavens shall confess Thy wonders.
(Psalms 89:3-5)
