GOD'S CERTAIN VICTORY

Isaiah iii

AWAKE, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city:
For henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.
Shake thyself from the dust; arise, sit on thy throne, Jerusalem:
Loose thyself from the bonds of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace,
That bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation, that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
The voice of thy watchmen! they lift up the voice, together do they sing;
For they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord returneth to Zion.
Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem;
For the Lord hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem.
The Lord hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations;
And all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

Psalm xxiv

LIFT up your heads, ye gates;
And be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors:
And the King of glory will come in.
Who is the King of glory?
The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O ye gates;
Yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors:
And the King of glory will come in.
Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory.
