Worship Preparation | Hebrews 1:7-9 - "Jesus: God" by Jordan

As you ready your soul to join God's people in worship, I encourage you to marinate in our sermon text, Hebrews 1:7-9. As you're in those verses, ask the Holy Spirit to work powerfully among us for true conversions and Christian growth.

Reckon with four things God said about Jesus in these verses:

1. Christ's Person -- v. 8, "...O GOD..."
2. Christ's Position -- v. 8, "...Your throne..."
3. Christ's Passion -- v. 9, "...love righteousness, hate lawlessness..."
4. Christ's Pleasure -- v. 9, "...GOD, YOUR GOD, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above Your companions."

HEBREWS 1:7-9 NASB

And of the angels He says,
"WHO MAKES HIS ANGELS WINDS,
AND HIS MINISTERS A FLAME OF FIRE."

But of the Son He says,
"YOUR THRONE, O GOD, IS FOREVER AND EVER,
AND THE RIGHTEOUS SCEPTER IS THE SCEPTER OF HIS KINGDOM.
"YOU HAVE LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HATED LAWLESSNESS;
THEREFORE GOD, YOUR GOD, HAS ANOINTED YOU
WITH THE OIL OF GLADNESS ABOVE YOUR COMPANIONS."

Lord willing, I'll see you at 9:00 for prayer, and 10:00 for praise.

Jordan
