Read
the words - ‘His Name’ shall ‘endure for ever’(Psalm 72:17) - and think
of Christ. His Name is ‘the Name above all other names’. He is ‘the
King of kings and Lord of lords’(Philippians 2:9-11; Revelation 19:16).
Read the words - ‘all nations call Him blessed’(Psalm 72:17) - , and
think of Christ. ‘From every tribe and language and people and nation’,
God’s people have been redeemed by the precious blood of Christ
(Revelation 5:9). Read the words -‘May His glory fill the whole
earth!’(Psalm 72:19) - and think of Christ. In the ‘new heaven and new
earth’, ‘the holy city’ will shine with ‘the glory of God’. ‘Its
radiance’, ‘like a very precious jewel’, will be shining from this
‘lamp’: Jesus Christ, ‘the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the
world’(Revelation 21:1-2,10-11,23; John 1:29).
