2 Kings 2:1-25; Jeremiah 35:1-19; Hebrews 7:1-28
Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all. 1 Chronicles 29:12
In this psalm, David acknowledges God’s majesty, omnipotence, and generosity. He affirms that no earthly position or possession should distract from honouring the Lord, for everything comes from Him. Without Christ, the believer is nothing, has nothing, and can do nothing for God (John 15:5). In Christ, we inherit all
things (Rom. 8:17), rule over all things (2 Tim. 2:12), and can do all things that God endorses (Phil. 4:13). Believers have no boast but in the Lord! —W. A. H.
Thy reign everlasting, Thy kingdom divine,
Henceforth and forever all glory be Thine. —Fanny J. Crosby
