"The happiness of Christ’s exalted state consists, in a great degree, in the pleasure of seeing...?" How might you complete this sentence? Read how one preacher/teacher from the 1700's did finish this sentence in Randy Alcorn's post entitled "Christ's Greatest Joy".

Psalm 114
1 When Israel went out from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3 The sea looked and fled; Jordan turned back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
5 What ails you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back?
6 O mountains, that you skip like rams? O hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 who turns the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of water.
"Saving Father, we are thankful for Your rescue work on behalf of a people whom You called and loved for Yourself and Your great purposes. We see in Your salvation that nothing can hinder You from accomplishing Your redemptive work - nothing on heaven or on the earth. You will forever be the God of Israel's Exodus and mine. Amen."
