WAITING FOR THE REDEMPTION OF THE LORD.
(Psalm130)
1) “Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord.”
As God’s children and as His servants our dependence is on our Triune God.
Father God is our Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior and the Blessed Holy Spirit is our Indwelling Spirit.
In whatever state we are in, we cry to our ALMIGHTY GOD.
2) “Lord, hear my voice!
Let Your ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.”
O Lord, hear my voice.
Let Your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3) “If You, Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?”
Our Triune God is a Loving and Merciful God.
In Christ, He has forgiven our sins.
Jesus Christ died for our sins on the Cross of Calvary.
If we refuse to repent and accept the forgiveness of sins from Jesus Christ, there is no other way.
Forgiveness of sins is only in Jesus Christ.
4) “But there is forgiveness with You,
That You may be feared.”
On the Cross of Calvary Jesus Christ took all our sins away.
We are holy, righteous and blameless in Christ.
Now the Holy Spirit can dwell within us.
Glory to God.
5) “I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
And in His word I do hope.”
Our hope is in the Word of God.
We always wait for the Lord.
Our soul waits for His Word.
6) “My soul waits for the Lord
More than those who watch for the morning—
Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.”
Our souls waits for the Lord.
Our salvation comes from the Lord.
Our salvation is from the penalty of sin, from the power of sin and from the presence of sin.
All these are available to us in Christ.
7) “O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is mercy,
And with Him is abundant redemption.”
Israel are the chosen people of God.
But in Christ all of us are also His chosen people.
Our hope is in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
The love and mercy of God are revealed to us in Jesus Christ.
And in and with CHRIST, we have abundant Redemption.
8) “And He shall redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.”
Jesus Christ will redeem His people from all their sins.
IN JESUS CHRIST NAME…FROM THE OFFICE OF THE CHIEF SERVANT. FROM THE MOUTH OF THE HOLY SPIRIT..
