They that know thy name

Daily Light Devotions - April 6 - Evening

They that know thy name ...

And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you. 1

In his days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell securely. And this is the name by which he will be called: 'The LORD is our righteousness.' 2

With the mighty deeds of the Lord GOD I will come; I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone. 3

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 4

I know, O LORD, that the way of man is not in himself, that it is not in man who walks to direct his steps. 5

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 6

which is why I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that he is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me. 7

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 8

For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility 9

Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 10

The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe. 11

Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help and rely on horses, who trust in chariots because they are many and in horsemen because they are very strong, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel or consult the LORD! Like birds hovering, so the LORD of hosts will protect Jerusalem; he will protect and deliver it; he will spare and rescue it." 12
