Blessings of Israel

Sing to the one who rides across the ancient heavens,

his mighty voice thundering from the sky.

Tell everyone about God’s power.

His majesty shines down on Israel;

his strength is mighty in the heavens.

God is awesome in his sanctuary.

The God of Israel gives power and strength to his people.

Psalm 68:33-35

Blessings of Promise

I praise God for what he has promised.

I trust in God, so why should I be afraid?

What can mere mortals do to me?

Psalm 56:4
