Psalm 99
99:1 The LORD is king; let the peoples tremble! He sits enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake!
99:2 The LORD is great in Zion; he is exalted over all the peoples.
99:3 Let them praise your great and awesome name. Holy is he!
99:4 Mighty King, lover of justice, you have established equity; you have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.
99:5 Extol the LORD our God; worship at his footstool. Holy is he!
99:6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel also was among those who called on his name. They cried to the LORD, and he answered them.
99:7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud; they kept his decrees, and the statutes that he gave them.
99:8 O LORD our God, you answered them; you were a forgiving God to them, but an avenger of their wrongdoings.
99:9 Extol the LORD our God, and worship at his holy mountain; for the LORD our God is holy.
ABUNDANT HEALTH
Crunchy Cancer Fighters
He makes grass grow for the cattle, and plants for people to cultivate—bringing forth food from the earth. Psalm 104:14 (NIV)
When Mom said, “Eat your broccoli,” she was on to something. Broccoli is part of the one vegetable family you can never get enough of—cruciferous vegetables. They contain powerful detoxifying chemicals. Kale, collards, broccolini, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and bok choy contain glucosinolates that prevent cancer and support your health. So just like your mom, we recommend filling up!

PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING
God of our salvation, through Jesus Christ’s self-offering on the cross, you granted eternal life. We who were far off have become members of your household. We belong to you, yet we get caught up in the world that judges others by what they own. Enable us to love you with our whole heart. Free us from clinging to our money and possessions. Use our gifts and offerings to bring relief to people in need of physical and spiritual healing. We ask this for the sake of Christ, our risen Lord. Amen
