Listen from:
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him. Psalm 91:1515He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him. (Psalm 91:15)
SA 91:15{JO 2:25{Prayer must be based upon promise, but, thank God, His promises are always broader than our prayers. No fear of building inverted pyramids here, for Jesus Christ is the foundation, and this and all the other "promises of God in Him are yea, and in Him amen, unto the glory of God by us." So it shall be unto His glory to fulfill each one to us, and to answer our prayer for a "kept" or "established" heart. And its fulfillment shall work out His glory, not in spite of us, but "by us.”
"Tempted and tried!”
There is One at thy side.
And never in vain shall His children confide!
He shall save and defend,
For He loves to the end.
Adorable Master and glorious Friend!
“Tempted and tried!”
The Savior who died
Hath called thee to suffer and reign by His side.
His cross thou shalt bear,
And His crown thou shalt wear,
And forever and ever His glory shalt share.
