Apostol § 282
Great is our Lord and abundant in power; His understanding is beyond measure!
Verse: Praise the Lord, for it is good to sing praises to our God!
My son Timothy, I exhort first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time, for which I was appointed a preacher and an Apostle (I am speaking the truth in Christ, and do not lie) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth…
To Thee, O God, is due a song in Zion; and prayers shall be lifted up to Thee in Jerusalem.
Verse: Thou shalt bless the crown of the year with Thy bounty!
