Encouraged in Christ

Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

1 Thessalonians 5:11

“Just come to Him and rest. If He’s Jehovah-jireh, rest on it. If He’s Jehovah-rapha, rest on it. If He’s the Lord that saves us by grace, rest on it. If He’s the Lord Who heals us by grace, rest on it. If He’s the God that’s coming from heaven with ten thousands of His saints, rest on it. If the dead in Christ shall rise first, rest on it. Everything, rest.” WMB

Why should I feel discouraged?Why should the shadows come?Why should my heart be lonelyAnd long for heav’n and home,When Jesus is my portion?My constant Friend is He:His eye is on the sparrow,And I know He watches me;His eye is on the sparrow,And I know He watches me. I sing because I’m happy—I sing because I’m free—His eye is on the sparrow,And I know He watches me. “Let not your heart be troubled.”His tender word I hear,And resting on His goodness,I lose my doubt and fear.Though by the path He leadeth,But one step I may see:His eye is on the sparrow,AndContinue Reading

“Every promise in the Book is yours. Every amen and yea is yours. What you got to be worried about? Even old age, it shouldn’t have a thing to do with it. Sickness has nothing to do with it. God promised, and God has to keep His promise.” WMB

“…God will not let us down if we’ll just keep believing. And let us take heart. Let’s be strong in faith. We must have these trials and testings and times to prove our faith. Every son that cometh to God must first be tried, chastened of God. So you come and pray.” WMB

“Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭14‬-‭16‬ ‭

“He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?”‭‭Micah‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬ ‭

You took the hand of Jesus,Stepped out upon His promise,Yet it seems that you have trusted in vain.The answer that you have prayed for,It’s on its way and paid for.Hold on a little longer, hold on. Hold on a little longer, hold on a little stronger,The testings of the Lord are pure gold.He’ll take you through the fire, He’ll burn off the dross and mire.Hold on a little longer, hold on. You’re watching for His coming,You’re wondering why He’s waiting,Hold on a little longer, hold on.Those clouds will soon be bursting,The Son of God descending.Hold on a little longer, holdContinue Reading

There’s No God Like Jehovah!

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 12:2

•PRAISE HIS NAME• When you’re up against a wall and your mountain seems so tallAnd you realize that life’s not always fairYou can run away and hide, let the old man decideOr you can change your circumstances with a prayer When everything falls apart, praise His nameWhen you have a broken heart, raise your hands and say:“Lord, You’re all I need, You’re everything to me”And He’ll take the pain awayWhen it seem you’re all alone, praise His nameWhen you feel you can’t go on, just raise your hands and say:“Greater is He that is within me”And you can praise theContinue Reading
