DAILY?READINGS: 2 Samuel 15; Zephaniah 3; Galatians 3:1-14
Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth…Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit… Isaiah 42:10-11
If we were to bend our ear and listen to the sounds that emanate from this world, what would we hear? Probably one long groan. Sin has ruined this world and ruined lives. But as we look at today’s verse, we can rejoice. A new song is coming and at the centre of it is the Lord Jesus Christ. Where will this song be sung? Our verse tells us in the villages of Kedar. Where is Kedar today? It is a Muslim nation. One day this song of the Lord Jesus Christ will be sung everywhere, even in the villages of Kedar. —Paul Robertson
Sing to the Lord a joyful song, lift up your hearts, your voices raise;
To us His gracious gifts belong, to Him our songs of love and praise.
—John S. B. Monsell
