We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Precisely because we are justified in Him – that is, in His justification – our justification is also final and irreversible. Indeed we can be so bold as to say that we are as fully justified before God as our Lord Jesus is. We are as finally justified as our Lord Jesus is. We are as irreversibly justified as our Lord Jesus is. The only justification we have – our only righteousness – is that of the Lord Jesus. We are justified with His justification.
Sinclair Ferguson

Most of us have never really understood that Christianity is not a self-help religion meant to enable moral people to become more moral. We don’t need a self-help book; we need a Savior. We don’t need to get our collective act together; we need death and resurrection and the life-transforming truths of the gospel. And we don’t need them just once, at the beginning of our Christian life; we need them every moment of every day.

47:1 (Ein Psalm der Kinder Korah, vorzusingen.) Frohlocket mit Händen, alle Völker, und jauchzet Gott mit fröhlichem Schall!

47:2 Denn der HERR, der Allerhöchste, ist erschrecklich, ein großer König auf dem ganzen Erdboden.

47:3 Er zwingt die Völker unter uns und die Leute unter unsre Füße.

47:4 Er erwählt uns unser Erbteil, die Herrlichkeit Jakobs, den er liebt. (Sela.)

47:5 Gott fährt auf mit Jauchzen und der HERR mit heller Posaune.

47:6 Lobsinget, lobsinget Gott; lobsinget, lobsinget unserm König!

47:7 Denn Gott ist König auf dem ganzen Erdboden; lobsinget ihm klüglich!

47:8 Gott ist König über die Heiden; Gott sitzt auf seinem heiligen Stuhl.

47:9 Die Fürsten unter den Völkern sind versammelt zu einem Volk des Gottes Abrahams; denn Gottes sind die Schilde auf Erden, er hat sie erhöht.
