For the LORD has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his dwelling place: "This is my resting place forever; here I will dwell, for I have desired it. I will abundantly bless her provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread. Her priests I will clothe with salvation, and her saints will shout for joy. There I will make a horn to sprout for David; I have prepared a lamp for my anointed. His enemies I will clothe with shame, but on him his crown will shine."
You have chosen Your Church, the Body of Christ, Your Bride to be Your dwelling place. You have appointed us a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for Your own possession. What a wonderful now. What a glorious yet to come.
