Morning:Psalm 89:19; Isaiah 9:6; Isaiah 43:11; Acts 4:12; Philippians 2:7–9; 1 Timothy 2:5; Hebrews 2:9; Hebrews 2:14
“I have granted help to one who is mighty; I have exalted one chosen from the people.”
“I, I am the Lord, and besides me there is no savior.”—There is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.—“There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
Mighty God.—[He] made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name.—We see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.—Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things.
Psalm 89:19(Listen)
19 Of old you spoke in a vision to your godly one,1and said:

Evening:Deuteronomy 30:4; Psalm 50:5; Mark 13:27; John 17:24; 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17; Hebrews 9:15; Hebrews 9:28
“Gather to me my faithful ones, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice!”
Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.—He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.
“Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am.”—“Then he will send out the angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.”—“If your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven, from there the Lord your God will gather you, and from there he will take you.”
The dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.
