Jesus said, “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” –Matthew 4:17
Praise For God’s Goodness To Israel
The Lord takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the humble with victory. (Psalm 149:4)
Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, His praise in the assembly of the faithful.
Let Israel be glad in its Maker; Let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.
The Lord takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the humble with victory. (Psalm 149:4)
Let them praise His name with dancing, making melody to Him with tambourine and lyre.
For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the humble with victory.
The Lord takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the humble with victory. (Psalm 149:4)
Let the faithful exult in glory; Let them sing for joy on their couches. Let the high praises of God
be in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands, to execute vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples, to bind their kings with fetters (shackles) and their nobles
with chains of iron, to execute on them the judgment decreed. This is glory for all His faithful
ones. Praise the Lord! –Psalm 149:1-9
The Lord takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the humble with victory. (Psalm 149:4)
Jesus Begins His Ministry in Galilee
Jesus left Nazareth and made his home in Capernaum by the sea, in the territory of Zebulun
and Naphtli, so that what had been spoken through the Prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled:
“Land of Zebulun, land of Naphtali, on the road by the sea, across the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles — the peoples who sat in darkness have seen a great light and for those who sat in the region and shadow of death light has dawned.” (Isaiah 9:1-2)
From that time Jesus began to proclaim, “Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven has come near.” –Matthew 4:13-17
