Let the Lord be praised . Drop those wonderful scriptures .

 

[Psalm51]

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence.

For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.

(Colossians 1:15-20) NKJV

[Psalm51]

The LORD has made bare His holy arm
In the eyes of all the nations;
And all the ends of the earth shall see
The salvation of our God.

[Psalm51]

"On that day I will raise up
The tabernacle of David, which
has fallen down,
And repair its damages;
I will raise up its ruins,
And rebuild it as in the days of old;
That they may possess the remnant of Edom,
And all the Gentiles who are
called by My name,"
Says the LORD who does this thing.

@runningwings There's so much in Isaiah; from another time and in another place; but there is so much that is Messianic; and so much applies.

@runningwings Another good one.

Also, I like Amos 3.3: "Can two walk together, except they be agreed?"
