Let's turn again to Psalm 24.
I titled the message this evening, The Only Savior, The Only People,
and The Only King. Psalm 24 seems to have three
clear divisions speaking of the only Savior, the only people,
and the only king. First, we see the only Savior,
verse 1. The earth is the Lord's. and
the fullness thereof in the world, and they that dwell therein.
For he hath founded it upon the seas and established it upon
the floods. Now the earth is the Lord's. It belongs to him. It belongs
to him because he spoke it into existence from nothing. In the
beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. Before God spoke,
space was just a vast emptiness. And when God spoke, all that
emptiness was suddenly filled with planets and stars and asteroids
and meteors and the sun, whatever else is up there suddenly was
all there because God spoke it into existence from nothing. All that came to be because God
created it. And it all belongs to him since
he created it. He owns it, doesn't he? David
says, the Lord is the one who founded the earth upon the seas.
At one time, darkness and water covered this globe. And God spoke
again. He said, let the dry land appear.
And it did. Well, then that dry land and
everything that's on that dry land all belongs to God. Because
He put it there. He created it. And whatever the
earth is full of, everything that it's full of, everything
that is in it, all belongs to God. Look over a few pages at
Psalm 50. The fullness of it all belongs
to the Lord. He owns it. It's His to do with
as He will. Psalm 50 verse 12. If I were hungry, I would not
tell thee, for the world is mine and the fullness thereof. Every
beast of the forest, every cattle upon a thousand hill, all the
fowls, all the wild beast, all of it Belongs to Him. This earth
is full of air, full of water and plants and animals and fish
and people. And they all belong to God. So
He can do with them as He will. They belong to Him. Everything
and everyone that lives on God's creation belongs to God. That means you and I belong to
God. We're just tenants living on
God's property. Actually, we're God's property,
living upon God's property. We don't own any of this land.
We got a deed to that little 40 feet somewhere, you know,
but we don't own that. The Lord owns it. He owns it
all. You and I are nothing more than
sharecroppers living on God's land, the land He allows us to
live upon. Every man, woman, and child,
every one of them, They're servants of God. Now you say, well, now
there's some servants of God. Some people know him and they're
servants. There's some sheep and there's some goats. That's
absolutely true. There are sheep and there are goats, but they're
God's sheep and they're God's goats. And God's going to use
them to accomplish his purpose. There are many vessels, but they
all belong to God. There's vessels of mercy. There's
vessels of wrath, but they're God's vessels that he uses to
accomplish his purpose. We'll look at this Sunday. Pharaoh
was a vessel of wrath, wasn't he? God used him to accomplish
his purpose. Moses was a vessel of mercy. God used him to accomplish his
purpose. And the Lord can do that because it all belongs to
him. The earth belongs to the Lord and he rules over it. That's why he could tell his
disciples, before he ascended back on high, he told his disciples,
go into all the world. all of it. There's not one speck
of dust on this planet. You can't go preach the gospel.
You go into all of it and preach the gospel to every creature.
He could tell him to do that because he owns it all and he's
got a people from all over it and he's going to have them.
He's going to bring them to Christ. Every last one of them. All the
fullness of this earth belongs to God and he uses it to accomplish
his purpose. And all the fullness of this
earth comes from the Lord, too. This earth is full. I mean, it's
just astounding to me. This earth stays full of air.
Even though millions of people and animals breathe constantly,
it still stays full of air, doesn't it? The earth stays full of water. I don't care how much of it we
drink, how much of it evaporates up into the heavens. The seas
stay full. You know, people worry about
running out of water, but at the same time they talk about the
seas rising. It stays full of water, doesn't
it? God sees to it. The dirt stays full. I mean, just dirt, just dirt. But in that dirt, there's nutrients
that causes plants to grow. Even though they've grown for
6,000 years, they keep growing, don't they? How can that happen? Because all the fullness of this
planet comes from God, from His goodness to His creation. But
there's a problem in this creation. You know, how many times we hear
Brother Henry say, there's nothing wrong with this creation, that
taking sin out of it wouldn't cure. I mean, what a beautiful
place. But I tell you what's marred,
the problem in God's creation, is sins come into it. And because
sins come into it, there's a need for a Savior. This earth is just
temporary. Don't get too attached to it.
Just don't get too attached. Did you notice, David, I've never
seen this before. David says the earth is founded
where? Upon the seas. It's established
upon the floods. Now, I'm no engineer. I'm no builder. But I believe
I know this. Water does not make a very good
foundation. It just doesn't do it. You know
why there's all these sinkholes in Florida? I watched one this
week. I just watched the time-lapse video of this thing open up,
swallowing up two or three houses. You know why that sinkhole's
there? Florida's founded upon the waters.
There's some sand. And there's just a little bit
of limestone. There's a whole bunch of water. And water's powerful. The pressure of water is powerful.
It's coming up. And that's why that sinkhole's
open. It's founded upon the water. Well, the only reason this whole
planet is not one giant sinkhole, that the planet has just not
swollen everything up, is Christ holds it all together. He's founded
it upon the waters. All things were created by Him
and for Him, and by Him all things consist. Everything is held together
by His power, even if it's founded upon the waters. But now, The
Lord founded it upon the water to show us this. This world is
just temporary. Anything founded upon water is
not going to last. This creation is only temporary
because of sin that's in it. One day God's going to destroy
it. He's going to create new heavens and a new earth wherein
dwells righteousness. And we're the ones that brought
sin into this world. We're the sinners. So we need
a savior. We need a refuge. But we can't
build one ourselves. You know, God spoke everything
into existence from nothing. If you and I are going to build
something, we're going to have to take things that exist and put
them together to build something, right? But we can't build anything
lasting from this creation that's founded upon the water. You can't
build anything permanent from something that's temporary. We
can't build anything spiritual from just this temporary earth.
Think about it. If a foolish man builds his house
upon a sand, that's what a foolish man does. He builds his house
upon a sand. How much more foolish are we to try to build something
spiritual on something as unstable as water? That's an utter fool. We can't give ourselves a solid
foundation. We can't build ourselves a refuge.
You and I are just dust. We're made from dust. And if
you don't believe me, wait till we die. That's what we'll turn
back into, dust. We're just made of dust. We're
dust. Stacked up on top of water. That's
not going to last very long. It's very, very temporary. So
we can't do anything for ourselves. Well, here's the question David
asked. Is there a savior then? Is there a solid rock to build
upon? That's what he asked in verse three. Who shall ascend
into the hill of the Lord? Or who shall stand in his holy
place? Now, is there one who can satisfy God? Is there one
who can go up to God? And that's hard enough to go
up to God. But is there one that can go
up to God and be accepted when he gets there? Is there one who
can stand in God's presence? Is there one who can stand there
and not be destroyed by the light of God's holy presence? Well,
I can't. You can't. This is what David's
asking. That's just a given to David.
I can't. You can't. But is there one who
can? Well, there is. And David describes
him here in verse 4. This is the one Savior. He that
hath clean hands and a pure heart, who hath not lifted up his soul
unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. Now there is one. There's one
that God will accept. Eric, you just preached a message
on it. It's not too long. It's got to be perfect. There's
one that's perfect. There is one. The one that God's
going to accept has got to be perfect. He must have clean hands. He never lifted up his hands
to sin. He never lifted his hands in
anger to shed innocent blood. He never lifted his hands to
idols. They've always only been lifted up to God. He's got to
have clean hands. He's got to be clean on the outside.
But brother, he's got to be clean on the inside. He's got to have
a pure heart. Holiness is not just outward. You know, somehow we tend to
think we're more holy if we can stop acting upon our sinful desires. We think we're more holy, don't
we? That's what we think. That's not holiness. Holiness
is not having the sinful desire in the first place. We can't
stop those sinful desires from coming into our head. So if God's
going to accept him, he's got to have a pure heart. The one
that God is going to accept could never lift his soul to vanity. That word vanity has to do with
the uselessness of idolatry. Idolatry is empty. It's empty of salvation. It's
empty of righteousness. It's empty of forgiveness. Any
object of worship other than the Lord Jesus Christ is vanity.
It's empty of worship. And lifting up the soul has to
do with enjoying So the one that God will accept has never enjoyed
idolatry. He's never trusted in idolatry,
but he's always trusted in the Lord. He's always found his joy
and he's found his satisfaction in God. Then the one that God
will accept must have never sworn deceitfully. The one that God
will accept never made a promise he didn't keep. God's gonna accept
him. He kept every promise he's ever
made. He was never a fraud. He never
pretended to have a righteousness he didn't have. He never pretended
to be what he was not. Now remember I said, who is this
that can ascend into the hill of the Lord? It's not me. It's
not you. I tell you, we have a corner
on this. We're frauds. Human beings are
born frauds. And what we don't have in us
by nature when we're born, we learn quickly to be a fraud. Can you deny that's true? You
put on a public face, don't you? I do. I know you do too. Some of that ugliness, just like
a cork that pops, it's got to come out. I'm sorry, honey, but
Janet sees this. I mean, sometimes some of it
comes out and she sees it. But there's some of that hiding
from her. I'm a fraud. All of us are. And when it comes
to trying to stand before God, we get religious. I mean, we're
frauds. Oh, we're frauds. So who is this
described? Who is David describing here?
Only one. There's just one Savior. This
can only describe our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the perfect man. Oh, He's perfect. He never knew
sin. He wasn't even acquainted with
it. He never thought it. He never
wanted it. He's perfect. He never coveted something that
didn't belong to Him. He never coveted glory that wasn't
His. How could he? How could the Lord
Jesus covet anything? He owns it all. All glory belongs
to him. All righteousness belongs to
him. Everything made that was made, he made it. It all belongs
to him. He can't covet anything. He never coveted anything. Christ
is the only one who always kept his promise. He's the only one. He made a vow to his father and
he kept it. He paid it. The son swore to
the father, he'll redeem his people from their sin. Before
God spoke all this into existence, God knew what he would do. He
knew what his purpose was. He knew he'd create this world,
put man on. He knew Adam would sin. He knew his people would
fall into sin. And he did it anyway. He allowed
all that to happen anyway for the glory of his son. His son
said, father, I promise in this covenant of grace, I bow to you.
I'll do everything it takes. To save these people you've given
me, I'll do everything it takes to make them perfect. I'll be
perfect. I'll obey the law for them, and
I'll give them my righteousness. And I'll take their sin, and
I'll go to Calvary and pay that horrible sin debt. I'll pay it
in full so their sin's blotted out. That's the vow he made to
his father in the covenant of grace. And we looked at this
a couple weeks ago. At Calvary, he paid the vow. Look back here, Psalm 22, verse
25. My praise should be of thee and
the great congregation. I will pay my vows before them
that fear him. That's our Lord Jesus Christ
speaking. He paid his vow. He paid the vow to his father.
See, Christ is the only one ever born, born of a woman who is
not a fraud. He's the only one who did no
sin, neither was any guile found in his mouth." He never was a
fraud. He's the perfect man. The Lord
Jesus only desired, thought, and did that which is holy. Even when he was made sin, he
never sinned. He was holy. And because he is,
all the sin of his people is gone under his blood because
he paid his vow to his father Verse five is true. He shall
receive the blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the
God of his salvation. Now, I told you how the son kept
his vow to the father in the covenant of grace. Well, you
know, the father kept his vow, too. He kept his vow to his son. And the father gave the son everything
he promised. He said, I promise you, I'm going
to give you the heathen for your inheritance. He's going to give
them all to him. After Christ suffered, died,
was buried, and rose again, He ascended back to the Father.
And oh, when He got there, what a glorious, glorious homecoming. The Father gave the Lord Jesus
Christ all glory. He gave all to Him. He gave Him
all honor. He gave Him a name better than
any name, a name which is above every name. He gave it all to
Him. Christ is the one that ascended
to the Father. Christ is the one who can stand
in the presence of the Father, because He's the perfect man.
He's the perfect Savior. And not only can He do that,
not only has He already done that, He has always done that. Always. Look at John chapter
3. Christ, our Savior, has always
stood in the presence of the Father. He's never not been accepted. John chapter 3. If Nicodemus had been paying
any attention whatsoever, if he had thought about Psalm 24
at all, he'd have known the Lord's answer in David's question here.
This man that Nicodemus was talking to is answering David's question
from Psalm 24. He says, and no man hath ascended
up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven Even the Son
of Man, which will be in heaven. No. Which is in heaven. Our Lord is telling Nicodemus.
The one standing here talking to you, the one standing here
on earth talking to you. Is in heaven. The new birth wasn't the only
mystery Nicodemus didn't understand. This is so far beyond Nicodemus's
power to comprehend. He didn't even ask about this.
How can you be standing here talking to me and be in heaven
at the same time? Because this is Christ the Savior. He's omnipresent. He's everywhere
at the same time. He's the only Savior. And He's
the only one the Father will accept. Alright, back in our
text, Psalm 24, here's the second point. The only people that God
will accept. Verse six, this is the generation
of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O God of Jacob. Now we just saw this description
of Christ. He's holy. He's sinless. He's
pure. He's righteous. And the father
accepts him. The father gives him every blessing. Everything God has, he's given
to his son. His son earned it, didn't he?
perfect life, his perfect obedience, his substitutionary death. He
earned it. He deserves to have it all. But
now when you describe the Lord Jesus Christ, the savior of his
people, you have to describe his people the exact same way
because they're one with Christ. The father accepts Christ and
he also accepts everyone in Christ. He accepts the federal head and
he accepts us in our federal head. The Father will accept
everyone who's in Christ because they've been made just like Christ. When God's elect are born, when
they're born again, they're born from holy seed and they're born
with a nature that's just like the Lord Jesus Christ. God accepts
them as holy and perfect and righteous because God made them
that way in their new birth. He'd given them a nature that's
just like the nature of our Savior. Look at Ephesians chapter four,
I'll show you that. Ephesians chapter four, verse 24. and that you put on the new man,
which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Now this new man that's born
of God is created in righteousness and true holiness. There's no
hypocrisy in this. There's no guile in this. This
is not pretend. It's real. It's real. There's
no vanity there. He's created in true holiness,
created with the nature of Christ, been made partaker of the divine
nature. So whatever Christ is, his people
are. Is Christ holy? Of course he
is. Of course. Then so is his people. Is Christ righteous? Absolutely
he is. Then his people are righteous
too. Even though I can't see it in myself, if I'm in Christ,
I'm righteous because I've been made what he is. And is Christ
accepted of the Father? Is Christ loved of the Father?
and His people are too. The people are accepted and loved
of the Father because we're in His Son. See, the redeemed don't
ascend up into the hill of the Lord and stand in His holy place
on the footing of our obedience to the law, do we? No, we come
to God. We send up to Him and we stand
in His holy place upon the footing of grace. Grace in Christ Jesus. See, it has to be by grace. It
has to be by Christ's work for them and in them because these
people are just like Jacob. I mean, we're going to look at
Jacob some Sunday morning. It ain't a pretty picture. But
that's you and me. We're just like Jacob. We're
born cheats, too. We're born supplanters. We all
got an angle. Now, we all got an angle, just
like Jacob did, trying to get something for nothing, you know.
We're full of guile and full of hypocrisy and full of sin.
Jacob's got nothing on you and me. Well, then, if God's going
to accept these people, if He's going to accept somebody like
Jacob, it can't be by works, can it? It's got to be by grace. It can't be by self. It's got
to be in Christ. And bless your heart, He does. He accepts His people in Christ
so that they stand in His presence. All right, here's another description
of the people that God accepts. You know, I'd like to be one
of those people, wouldn't you? Oh, I want that more than anything. I want to be found in Christ. Well, how can I tell if I'm one
of them? Well, David says, this is the generation of those, this
is the people, the description of those who are in Christ. They
seek Him. Those who are in Christ seek
Christ. God's elect, saved people are
seekers. Now, why do you seek for something? It's pretty simple, but that's
the only way I can understand things. Why do you ever seek for something? I'm not seeking a fat glass of
water. I got it. I know where it is. I've got
it. I won't need a drink again for a little bit because I'd
be seeking water. I just took a drink. I've got
some in me. Why do you seek for something if you don't have it
and you don't know where it is and you need it? You need it.
Sometimes I might not know where my car keys are. But, you know,
if I'm going to spend the next couple of hours in my study,
I really don't care. But if I need to go somewhere, I need to go
out, maybe Janet calls me and says, I've got a flat tire, you've
got to come get me. Well, now I need to go. Now seeking for those
car keys becomes awful important because I've got to go get her,
I've got to go help her. God's people are seekers. They seek
after righteousness because they don't have any. They can't produce
any. They seek after forgiveness of
sins because they can't find a way to make up for their sin.
They need forgiveness, so they seek it. God's people seek Christ. Because they need him, they need
him. See, these seekers, religious
people all over the world, they're seekers of something, aren't
they? And it's sad, but they're seekers
of something. They're seekers for blessings. They're seekers for honors or
for riches or for connections or seeking to somebody make me
feel better about my life, you know, whatever. They're seeking
for something. My life is pitiful and I don't know how to do anything. Somebody make me feel better.
That's what they're seeking for. That's not what these seekers
that David is describing are seeking. No, they seek Christ. If I could impress anything upon
our hearts, I would impress this. Seek Christ. Seeking. Seeking with all of your heart. Seeking. The answer to David's
question in verse 3, who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord?
Or who shall stand in His holy place? The answer to that question
is not a way. It's not a path. It's not a set
of doctrines. David knows exactly what he's
asking because he says who? Who? And the answer is he. The answer is a person. The answer is the Lord Jesus
Christ. It's all in him. All of it. It's in Christ. Then seek him. Whatever it is you need, you
seek Christ. If you find him, you'll have
it. Do you need righteousness? Seek Christ. He is the righteousness
of His people. He is Jehovah's Savior. Do you
need forgiveness? Do you need forgiveness of your
sin because you can't make it up to God? Then seek Christ. All forgiveness is in Him. Do
you need peace with God so you can be accepted and stand in
His holy place? Then seek Christ. If you find
Christ, you'll have peace. He's made peace for us by the
blood of His cross. Every spiritual blessing, mercy,
grace, life, it's all in Christ. Seek Christ. If you find Him,
you've got every treasure your heart could ever desire. I can
tell you who is going to fill heaven. Heaven is going to be
filled with seekers and finders. If you seek Christ with all of
your heart, you'll find Him. He said that. This One who always
keeps His promise said, seek Me with all your heart. In that
very day you'll find Me. Don't quit then. If you've sought Him and you
can't find Him, you can't believe, keep seeking. Seek Him with all
your heart, you'll find Him. Seek Christ because you need
Him. Because you can't live without
Him. Because He is what you need more than anything else. And
that day that you seek Him like that, with that need, you'll
find Him. There's just one Savior. And
there's one people. All those people, they seek this
one Savior. And they worship Him. And they
trust Him. And this one people, they all
bow. They all bow to the same King.
Here's our third point. The only King. Verse seven. Lift up your heads, O ye gates,
and be lift up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory
shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The
Lord, strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up
your heads, O ye gates, even lift them up, ye everlasting
doors, and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King
of glory? The Lord of hosts. He is the
King of glory. Now the door to God has been
closed. Ever since Adam sinned, that
door to God has been closed. The door to God, the gates that
opened the way to God were closed by Adam's disobedience. But that
door is opened wide by the obedience of Christ our Savior and Christ
our King. When Christ ascended back to
the Father, the door was opened wide for Him, wasn't it? Why
wouldn't it be? There's no reason to keep Him
out. He pleased his father. He had clean hands and a pure
heart. He never lifted up his soul into vanity. He never sworn
deceitfully. There's no reason to keep him
out. The door to heaven was wide open. The door into the presence
of his father was wide open to him. But now listen, he didn't
go there just for himself. Our king, this is the king mediator. He went there opening the way
for a people. He's the forerunner of his people.
The door to heaven was open to him. But when he went, he opened
the door to heaven for all of his people. He removed every
reason the father would have had to keep him out. He made
his people so that they had clean hands and a pure heart, so that
they never lifted up their soul to vanity, so they had never
sworn deceitfully. And the door to heaven is wide
open because the King of Glories opened it. Now, who is this King
of Glories? Well, you know it's the Lord
Jesus Christ. David could only be describing the Savior here.
Who is the King of Glory? He's the Lord, mighty in battle. He went to battle and he defeated
every enemy. Not one enemy can keep any of
God's elect out of heaven. There's no enemy that can keep
any of God's elect away from Christ because they're defeated. So there's no need for us to
fear a defeated enemy. They've lost the ability to win
the war. Christ has defeated our enemy
death. He conquered death by dying for
his people. So there's no reason for the
believer to fear death. We have nothing to fear. Christ
has defeated the world. Be of good cheer. I've overcome
the world. He owns it. Of course he overcame
it. Then we don't have to fear what man's going to do to us
in it, do we? We don't have to fear the goings on of it. Our
Lord has defeated the world. King rules this world. Christ
has defeated Satan. He's our enemy. He's the accuser
of the brethren. But Christ crushed his head,
put him out of business, eliminated his power. Now I wouldn't go
looking for him. We couldn't stand up to him any
better than Peter did. Don't go looking for him, but don't
fear him either. The only way he could ever touch
your body is if the King lets him. And he'll never touch your
soul. Never. The King, who's strong
and mighty in battle, will never allow it. So live fearing the
King. Live honoring and worshiping
and respecting the Lord the King. Our Savior is mighty to save. Mighty to save. Everyone for
whom He died shall be saved. He's mighty to save. Now just
rest in Him. Rest in the King. By His might,
the power of His blood, He's cleansed His people from their
sin. So don't live in fear of it. Don't live in fear of your
sin. Hate it. Hate your sin. Make it your aim to never sin
and hate it when you do. But don't fear the damning power
of it, because Christ took the sin of His people away. He suffered
the condemnation for it. And He separated the sin of His
people as far from us as the East is from the West. I told
you this before, let me tell you again. North and South touch,
don't they? Two spots, North and South. You
go North long enough, you're going to eventually start going
South. They touch. But if you go east and keep going
east, you'll never be going west. They don't touch. Sin of God's elect will never
touch them. It's impossible. Christ took
it away, made it to not exist. So don't fear your sin. Don't
fear the damning power of your sin. Hate it, but don't fear
it. Christ, our King, our mighty Savior, already bore it away.
Our King is mighty. You know, one of the functions
of a king is to protect his people, to give his people life and prosperity
and health and all these things. That's the job of the king. Our
king is mighty. He gives life to his people,
abundant life, eternal life. They're born dead, but he's so
mighty, he gives life to his people and they can never die. Now you mark this down and you
live your life this way. No one can ever take away what
the mighty one is giving you. They can't take it away from
you. One more scripture, Hebrews chapter seven. Look over here
in Hebrews chapter seven. It's by Christ's obedience. He's
the only one mighty enough, holy enough with the nature to be
obedient to God's law and keep it. And by his obedience and
by his sacrifice, the door of heaven is wide open. everyone who comes to God in
him. Hebrews 7 verse 25. Wherefore, he is able also to
save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing
he ever liveth to make intercession for them. Who is this king of
glory? He's the Lord mighty to save. He's the king mediator who lives
forever to make intercession for his people. And listen, he's
not there alone. He's the Lord of hosts. The Lord
of hosts. He didn't go to heaven to be
there alone. No, the king has a kingdom and our king has a
vast kingdom. He is the Lord of hosts. He has saved a number that no
man can number. And all of them will come to
the father by Christ and they're going to stand. I reckon they'll
stand accepted. We'll be accepted. We're not
going to stand, are we? We're going to bow. But we'll
stand accepted before the Father in Christ, the only Savior and
the only King. Now, the only people that will
be accepted are those who come in Christ. But it's a host, isn't
it? Oh, it's a host. He is the Lord
of hosts. What a King. What a Savior. I hope the Lord will bless that
too. Our God, how we thank you. How
we thank you for a Savior, the only Savior, the only one who
could save sinful wretches such as we are. Father, how we thank
you for the only King, the King whom we serve, the King we bow
at his feet, the King whose name we proclaim, whose fame we publish
abroad. Father, how we thank you. And
how we thank you, this great and glorious Savior, this King,
the Lord of hosts, has a people. Father, how we thank you for
your electing, calling, saving, regenerating, sanctifying, keeping
grace. How we thank you, Father, you
have a people. And they shall stand. They shall
come into your presence, not by their might or their goodness,
but by the might and goodness of our Lord and King. Father,
it's in His precious name, His glorious name, that we pray you'd
bless this message to the hearts of your people, to comfort us
and encourage us and strengthen us in Christ our Savior. Father, use this message to call
your people to come bow at the feet of King Jesus and cause
it to bring much glory to His name. It's in that name which
is above every name, the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, We
ask these blessings and give them.
