Let’s pray for the saints to bless the Lord with well-speaking concerning His person and work by addressing the Lord directly

Bless Jehovah, O my soul; / And all that is within me, bless His holy name. Psa. 103:1

Bless Jehovah, O my soul; / And all that is within me, bless His holy name. Psa. 103:1

Dear saints, let us pray that the saints would practice to bless the Lord with well-speaking concerning His person and work by addressing the Lord directly (Psa. 103:1; Rev. 5:12-13; Hymns, , ss. 1-3 and chorus).

Hymns, , ss. 1 and chorus:

O glorious Christ, Savior mine,
Thou art truly radiance divine;
God infinite, in eternity,
Yet man in time, finite to be.

Oh! Christ, expression of God, the Great,
Inexhaustible, rich, and sweet!
God mingled with humanity
Lives in me my all to be.

In the section of remembering the Lord, all our praises should be addressed directly to the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

To address our praises directly to the Lord Jesus, the Son of God, we need to realize the economy of the Divine Trinity. Matthew 28:19b says that we are baptized into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Second Corinthians 13:14 refers to the love of God, the grace of Christ, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. These verses reveal the economy of the Divine Trinity to dispense Himself into His chosen and redeemed people.

We need to learn to differentiate the Lord’s names from the Father’s names. In our personal time it would be good to read Hymns, #65 through #80, concerning the names of the Lord. In order to address or praise the Lord Himself directly, we need to know His names. (Collected Works of Witness Lee, 1979, vol. 2, “Basic Lessons on Service,” Lesson 4)
