Monday Reflection | Psalm 2

Passage:
Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord and against his Anointed, saying,
3 “Let us burst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us.”
4 He who sits in the heavens laughs;
the Lord holds them in derision.
5 Then he will speak to them in his wrath,
and terrify them in his fury, saying,
6 “As for me, I have set my King
on Zion, my holy hill.”
7 I will tell of the decree:
The Lord said to me, “You are my Son;
today I have begotten you.
8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and the ends of the earth your possession.
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron
and dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.”
10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son,
lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
for his wrath is quickly kindled.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Lyrics:
Most worthy worthy of praise
Exalted above all things my God
You are my God

Your splendor and majesty
Your wonder fills everything my God
You are my God

Holy is the Lord
Holy is the Lord Almighty
Seated on the throne
Seated on the throne of Glory
High and lifted up
Your presence fills the temple when we worship You
Oh we worship You

Creation points to the King
The heavens can't help but sing to You
To You our God

Hallelujah to the one who came and made a way
Hallelujah to the one who died and rose again
Hallelujah to the only name above all names
Glory and honor and power forever

Prayer:
This is another day, O Lord. I know not what it will bring forth, but make me ready, Lord, for whatever it may be. If I am to stand up, help me to stand bravely. If I am to sit still, help me to sit quietly. If I am to lie low, help me to do it patiently. And if I am to do nothing, let me do it gallantly. Make these words more than words, and give me the Spirit of Jesus. Amen.
