Song # 2099 from Our Gospel In Song Collection by Col Johnston. We read in Acts chapter 2 that Peter tells the crowd what David said about Jesus.
Peter stood up, raised his voice and addressed the crowd (Acts 2:14). “God raised Jesus from the dead, freeing Him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on Him” (Acts 2:24). “David said about Jesus: ‘I saw the Lord always before me. Because He was at my right hand, I will not be shaken’ (Acts 2:25). ‘Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will live in hope’ (Acts 2:26), ‘because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay’ (Acts 2:27). ‘You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence’” (Acts 2:28). Peter continues: “Brothers, I can tell you confidently that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is here to this day” (Acts 2:29). “But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him that He would place one of his descendants on his throne” (Acts 2:30).
Thought for today: trust in God today and prepare for your tomorrow.
Thought for the future: no-one is more secure than those in God’s hands. Where will you spend your eternity?
