Heavenly Father, as I read through Your Word and see the wonderful plan of salvation which You purposed to carry out through Your chosen people Israel, I thank You that despite disobeying the conditions of Your covenant, You never gave up on Your people and used them to be Your witnesses - through whom was born the Messiah Who became the sin-offering for the world. Thank You that today You are carrying out Your plans and purposes through the Body of Christ, which is the Church, and thank You that by faith in Him I am also Your precious possession - through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank You that the day is coming when You will ratify Your New Covenant with the house of Judah and the house of Israel, and that Christ will return to set up His kingdom on earth as King of kings and Lord of lords. I praise Your holy name, AMEN.
