Psalm 2:9 “You will rule them [the nations] with an iron scepter; you will dash them to pieces like pottery.”

You, Lord Jesus, will deal with sin, punish evil and sweep away all who refuse to enter your shelter of protection and forgiveness.

I praise you that you are not soft on sin, that you are firm and faithful in your determination to keep wickedness and evil out of of the new Heaven and new Earth to come. I praise you for the prospect of living there with no sin nature within, with no evil enemy without, with no selfishness encouraging me to do my own thing.

Today I praise you, Lord Jesus, as my God and King, my Shepherd and Guide, my Protector and constant Companion.

I give you glory and honor for your great and deep work in my life. And I praise you for all that you will do today—

the surety of your protection,

the certainty that you will work powerfully and incisively,

the reliability that you will allow some difficulties to make me grow,

the challenges you will give me to trust you,

you leading me to pray and to further obey your Word.

Help me to join you in your great plans for today. Amen
