1 Cor.11:26; 1 Kings 22:17,18,26-35; Ecc.9:11; Pr 19:21
King Ahab said, ‘Until
I come, in prison you stay
on bread and water. – In disguise,
I will succeed today.
He did not like God’s Word.
He thought he could prevent
the certain word Micaiah spoke:
at random, death was sent.
Our sacrament reminds
us of the death of Christ,
and what was done: until that Day
he comes to take the blest.
And he will come again,
for certain in his Word,
and time and chance are ruled by One
who is the Sovereign Lord.
