(17) For You are the glory of their strength, And in Your favor our horn is exalted.
(18) For our shield belongs to the LORD, And our king to the Holy One of Israel.
GOD’s Righteous Servant
(19) Then You spoke in a vision to Your holy one, And said: “I have given help to one who is mighty; I have exalted one chosen from the people.
(20) I have found My servant David; With My holy oil I have anointed him,
(21) With whom My hand shall be established; Also My arm shall strengthen him.
THE ENEMY WILL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST US
(22) The enemy shall not outwit him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
(23) I will beat down his foes before his face, And plague those who hate him.
(24) “But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him, And in My name his horn shall be exalted.
HIs 1ST born set as highest of all kings of the earth
(25) Also I will set his hand over the sea, And his right hand over the rivers.
(26) He shall cry to Me, ‘You are my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.’
(27) Also I will make him My firstborn, The highest of the kings of the earth.
(28) My mercy I will keep for him forever, And My covenant shall stand firm with him.
(29) His seed also I will make to endure forever, And his throne as the days of heaven.
(30) “If his sons forsake My law And do not walk in My judgments,
(31) If they break My statutes And do not keep My commandments,
(32) Then I will punish their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with stripes.
(33) Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not utterly take from him, Nor allow My faithfulness to fail.
(34) My covenant I will not break, Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.
(35) Once I have sworn by My holiness; I will not lie to David:
(36) His seed shall endure forever, And his throne as the sun before Me;
(37) It shall be established forever like the moon, Even like the faithful witness in the sky.” Selah
Scripture [1] Act 17:22-32 – Introducing the Unknown GOD – REPENT
REPENT – The DAY of His Judgement is Coming
Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you…
(22) Then Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, “Men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are very religious;
(23) for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription:
TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you:
(24) God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands.
(25) Nor is He worshiped with men’s hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things.
(26) And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings,
(27) so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us;
(28) for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring.’
(29) Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, something shaped by art and man’s devising.
(30) Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,
(31) because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”
(32) And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked, while others said, “We will hear you again on this matter.”
