Psalm 96

1 Chapter: Psalm 96

1 Verse:
Verse 10. Say among the nations, "The LORD reigns; indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved; He will judge the peoples with equity."

1 Prayer: Father, the rulers of nations are nothing compared to You. You are the One and Only King. You reign over nations and peoples -- and over the whole of all the world that You have made. Nothing is going to shake up Your kingdom -- no preemptive strike, no war of choice, no insurgency, no occupation, no mid-term election, no bombshell revelation, no cover-up, no scandal, no secret emails, no attack ads, no smear campaign, no media bias, no spin. You judge rightly. You judge everyone from the least to the greatest with the same balance scales. There is no favoritism of wealth or insider influence or popular vote or political power. I ca't wait, Lord, for Your judgment to come down, but I know it is not yet. As hard as it is to wait, I'm glad You are patient. Nothing is going to rush Your sovereign grace. Still, help me to "say among the nations" that You reign, and that Your perfect hope of salvation is on its way and here right now, once and future, already and not yet, present and still to come.
