2 Samuel 2:1-32; Micah 4:9-5:15; Romans 11:1-12
Thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins. Matthew 1:21
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow. Philippians 2:10
We come together today to behold the One whose “name…is above every name” (Phil. 2:9). Just to hear that name should prompt us to bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. He was in the beginning with God and all things were made by Him (John 1:1-3) but our central passion for that name rests on the immutable truth that He has saved us from our sins. —Ken Gross
O Lord, how much Thy name unfolds to every opened ear!
The pardoned sinner’s memory holds none other half so dear. —Mary Bowley Peters
