“Behold the days are coming,” declares the LORD,
“When I shall raise up for David a righteous Branch;
And He will reign as king and act wisely
And do justice and righteousness in the land,
In His days Judah will be saved,
And Israel will dwell securely;
And this is His name by which He will be called,
The LORD our righteousness.”
Jeremiah 23:5-6

Jesus Vindicates the Humble
Who is among you that fears the LORD,
That obeys the voice of His Servant,
Let him who walks in darkness, who has no light,
Trust in the name of the LORD and rely on his God.
Isaiah 50:10

Jesus Shall Reign Over All the Earth
“Am I a God who is near,” declares the LORD,
“And not a God far off?
Can a man hide himself in hiding places,
So I do not see him?” declares the LORD.
“Do I not fill the heavens and the earth?” declares the LORD.
Jeremiah 23:23-24
Joy to the world!
The Lord is come.
Let earth receive her King.
Let every heart
prepare Him room,
And heav’n and nature sing,
And heav’n and nature sing,
And heav’n and heav’n and nature sing,
And a voice came from the throne, saying, “Give praise to our God, all you His bond-servants, you who fear Him, the small and the great.” And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude and as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty peals of thunder saying, “Hallelujah! For the LORD our God, the Almighty, reigns.”
Revelation 19:5-6

Jesus’ Reign Will Provide Justice and Prosperity
“Turn to Me and be saved, all you ends of the earth;
for I am God, and there is no other.
By Myself I have sworn,
My mouth has uttered in all integrity a word that will not be revoked;
Before Me every knee will bow; by Me every tongue will swear.
They will say of Me, ‘In the LORD alone are righteousness and strength.’
All who have raged against Him will come to Him and be put to shame.
But in the LORD all the descendants of Israel
will be found righteous and will glory.”
Isaiah 45:22-25
May His name endure forever;
May His name increase as long as the sun shines;
And let men bless themselves by Him;
Let all nations call Him blessed.
Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel,
Who alone works wonders.
And blessed be His glorious name forever;
And may the whole earth be filled with His glory.
Amen and Amen.
Psalm 72:17-19
