Praise to our Lord! Reading scripture Psalm 24: 1,7-10 AMP
“The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness of it, the world, and those who dwell in it.”
“Lift up your heads, O gates, and be lifted up, ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
Who is the King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O gates, and lift them up, ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts, He is the King of glory [who rules over all creation with His heavenly armies].”
