33,351,130615 response reading 33. psalms 72 Endow the king with your justice, O God, the royal son with your righteousness. He will judge your people in righteousness, your afflicted ones with justice. The mountains will bring prosperity to the people, the hills the fruit of righteousness. He will defend the afflicted among the people and save the children of the needy; he will crush the oppressor. He will endure as long as the sun, as long as the moon, through all generations. He will be like rain falling on a mown field, like showers watering the earth. In his days the righteous will flourish; prosperity will abound till the moon is no more. He will rule from sea to sea and from the River to the ends of the earth. All kings will bow down to him and all nations will serve him. hymnal 351 1 Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus Going on before; Christ the royal Master leads against the foe; Forward into battle, See His banners go. Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before. 2 At the sound of triumph Satan's host doth flee; on then, Christian soldiers, Onto victory; hell's foundations quiver at the shout of praise; Brothers, lift your voices, Loud your anthems raise. Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before. 3 Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms wax and wane, but the Church of Jesus Constant will remain; gates of hell can never against that church prevail we have Christ's own promise, and that cannot fail. Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before. 4 Onward, then, ye people, Join our happy throng, blend with ours your voices in the triumph song; glory, laud, and honor unto Christ our King This thro countless ages men adn angels sing. Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before. 1 Samuel 14:6-15 6 Jonathan said to his young armor-bearer, "Come, let's go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised fellows. Perhaps the LORD will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few." 7 "Do all that you have in mind," his armor-bearer said. "Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul." 8 Jonathan said, "Come, then; we will cross over toward the men and let them see us. 9 If they say to us, 'Wait there until we come to you,' we will stay where we are and not go up to them. 10 But if they say, 'Come up to us,' we will climb up, because that will be our sign that the LORD has given them into our hands." 11 So both of them showed themselves to the Philistine outpost. "Look!" said the Philistines. "The Hebrews are crawling out of the holes they were hiding in." 12 The men of the outpost shouted to Jonathan and his armor-bearer, "Come up to us and we'll teach you a lesson." So Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, "Climb up after me; the LORD has given them into the hand of Israel." 13 Jonathan climbed up, using his hands and feet, with his armor-bearer right behind him. The Philistines fell before Jonathan, and his armor-bearer followed and killed behind him. 14 In that first attack Jonathan and his armor-bearer killed some twenty men in an area of about half an acre. 15 Then panic struck the whole army--those in the camp and field, and those in the outposts and raiding parties--and the ground shook. It was a panic sent by God. Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors, And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. amen.
