CLAIM THE PROMISES
We sang this wonderful hymn at our Family Devotions this morning. What great words which are all taken from Scripture. Take a moment to look them up. You will be blessed and encouraged:
Isaiah 41:10 (which has seven promises, one for each day of the week).
Isaiah 43:1, 2
2 Corinthians 12:9
Hebrews 13:5, 6
1 Peter 1:6, 7
How firm a foundation you saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith in his excellent Word!
What more can he say than to you he has said,
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
"Fear not, I am with you, O be not dismayed,
For I am your God, and will still give you aid;
I'll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand,
Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
"When through the deep waters I call you to go,
The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow,
For I will be with you in trouble to bless,
And sanctify to you your deepest distress.
"When through fiery trials your pathway shall lie,
My grace all-sufficient shall be your supply;
The flame shall not hurt you; I only design
Your dross to consume and your gold to refine.
"The soul that on Jesus has leaned for repose
I will not, I will not desert to its foes;
That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no never forsake!"
Be encouraged today,
Nancy
