Gipsy Smith Quote

There’s no sight like seeing the light from Calvary kiss a human face as it fills the heart with the assurance of Divine forgiveness.

From Hebrews 6:10-12:  “For God is not unjust; He will not overlook your work and the love that you showed for His sake in serving the saints, as you still do.  And we want each one of you to show the same diligence so as to realize the full assurance of hope to the very end, so that you may not become sluggish but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.”

Rodney “Gipsy” Smith (1860-1947) was a British evangelist who conducted campaigns in both his native land and the United States for over 70 years.

Each Faithful Step

From Isaiah 43:2:  “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.”

Road ahead narrows

Stumbling with each step

Burdened with mistrust

Lack of faith, leads to missteps

 

Spirit joins each step

Uplifting at dawn

Life’s route flattens out

Mercy calling out, hang on

 

Tomorrow arrives

Trusting in God’s grace

River passing through

Each faithful step, keeping pace

 

Wilderness watered

Blossoming new leaves

Harvest steps forward

Deliverance, wrapped in sheaves

 

Eyes focused on Christ

Leading steps with love

Journey energized

Guided, by Spirit above

From Romans 8:27:  “And God, who searches hearts, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.”

David Jeremiah Quote

Refresh your commitment today to test everything by the Word of God.  The surest defense against spiritual deception is knowledge of spiritual truth.

From 1 Peter 5:8-9:  “Discipline yourselves; keep alert.  Like a roaring lion your adversary the devil prowls around, looking for someone to devour.  Resist him, steadfast in your faith, for you know that your brothers and sisters in all the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering.”

Trusting Always

From Psalm 37:5-6:  “Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him, and He will act.  He will make your vindication shine like the light and the justice of your cause like the noonday.”

Trusting always, Lord’s righteousness

Living under His cherished love

Filling each heart with His desires

Praises reign from heaven above

 

Trusting always, Lord’s promised light

Committing to His divine way

Shining upon mercy’s justice

Darkness vanquished, fading away

 

Trusting always, Lord’s faithful path

Sending love with His timely grace

Accepting redemption’s blessing

Peace extended, let all embrace

 

Trusting always, Lord’s hallowed Word

Reading as His blueprint unfolds

Gathering spirit leads us forth

Faith growing from Gospel’s foothold

From Psalm 37:39-40:  “The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; He is their refuge in the time of trouble.  The Lord helps them and rescues them; He rescues them from the wicked and saves them because they take refuge in Him.”
