Encouraged in Christ
Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
1 Thessalonians 5:11
🎶SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER 🎶
Sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of prayer
That calls me from a world of care
And bids me at my Father’s throne
Make all my wants and wishes known
In seasons of distress and grief
My soul has often found relief
And oft escaped the tempter’s snare
By Thy return, sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of prayer
The joys I feel, the bliss I share
Of those whose anxious spirits burn
With strong desires for Thy return
With such I hasten to the place
Where God my Savior shows His face
And gladly take my station there
And wait for Thee,
sweet hour of prayer
Oh, I am so glad that my God abides faithful. He is true to Himself, He won’t lie. He is true to the Word, He will back it up. He is true to us, He will lose none of us, but raise us up in the last day. I am glad that I am resting in His faithfulness. Philippians 1:6, “Being confident of this very thing, that He Which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the Day of Jesus Christ.” WMB

• HEAVEN’S SOUNDING SWEETER ALL THE TIME•
Life has been so good I can’t complain
When I’m down God gives me strength to rise again
But I’m weary from the struggle of it all
I just listen, how I listen to His call
Heaven’s sounding sweeter all the time
Seems like lately it’s always on my mind
Someday I’m gonna leave this world behind
Heaven’s sounding sweeter all the time
It’s hard to lose a loved one to the grave
But we have the blessed hope that Jesus gave
God’s gonna wipe the tears from our eyes
When we meet in that land beyond the skies

“Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime,
And in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.”
â€â€Psalm‬ â€42‬:â€8‬ â€
There’s a land that is fairer than day,
And by faith we can see it afar;
For the Father waits over the way
To prepare us a dwelling place there.
In the sweet by and by,
We shall meet on that beautiful shore;
In the sweet by and by,
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.
We shall sing on that beautiful shore
The melodious songs of the blessed;
And our spirits shall sorrow no more,
Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
To our bountiful Father above,
We will offer our tribute of praise
For the glorious gift of His love
And the blessings that hallow our days.

“I thought, “O God, one of these hours there’s coming a scream from heaven; the trumpet of God shall sound, and every Christian shall fly on to the wings of the old rugged cross, piercing the storms of life out into the cleft in the Rock, Christ Jesus.” Oh, my. God in His nature, watch Him in His universe. Just in a moment, how He can take us, no matter how hard the trial is, just hold on to His wings, and He’ll bear you away.” WMB
Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
Lamentations 3:19-25
