O my soul, tune thy guitar to a glad song of thanksgiving! Go to thy rest rejoicing, for thou art no desolate wanderer, but a beloved child, divinely peaceful
You will never find Jesus so precious as when the world is one vast howling wilderness. Then he is like a rose blooming in the midst of the desolation, a rock rising above the storm.
~Robert Murray M’Cheyne~
...The Word of God is greater than heaven and earth, yea, greater than death and hell, for it forms part of the power of God, and endures everlastingly. ~Martin Luther~
In comparison to man’s earthly frailty, what is revealed as lasting? It is the Word of God that is lasting; it has endured over the centuries. How long does God’s Word endure? The Word of God endures forever.
“Whose blood do you need?” It is Jesus’ blood––the blood of the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world!
The individual who desires to get power over sin must likewise seek it through the blood of Jesus. ~George Muller~
it is important that we live our lives with fearin the presence of God––in reverence for His holiness––because one day, we will stand before God in the righteousness of Christ, to be judged.
When we Christians behave badly ... we are making Christianity unbelievable to the outside world.... Our careless lives ... give grounds for talking in a way that throws doubt on the truth of Christianity itself. ~C.S. Lewis~
‘Tis mystery all! Th’ Immortal dies! Who can explore His strange design?
In vain the firstborn seraph tries to sound the depths of love divine!
‘Tis mercy all! Let earth adore! Let angel minds inquire no more.
~Charles Wesley~
To some the Bible is uninteresting and unprofitable, because they read too fast. Do you search the Scriptures or do you only skim them?
~C.H. Spurgeon~
No matter how foreboding the future, the Christian knows the end of the story––and it is glorious! Don’t lose heart. The best is yet to be! ~Billy Graham~
Christians rejoice, knowing the end from the beginning of our faith––the salvation of our souls. Do you know your life’s end? If you are in Christ, your end will be glorious!
When Jesus looked out into the suffering multitudes, His heart was moved with compassion: But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd (Matthew 9:36).
Always remember your trials are temporal; they are not forever––When your life comes to an end, you will be taken to heaven where there are no more tears, pain, sickness or death. No more trials!
In heaven we shall see that we had not one trial too many. ~C. H. Spurgeon~
I want to know one thing, the way to heaven; how to land safe on that happy shore. God Himself has condescended to teach the way; for this end He came from heaven. He hath written it down in a book. Give me that book! At any price give me the Book of God!” ~John Wesley~
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.... 1 Peter 1:3
