Hereafter shall the Son of Man sit on the right hand of the power of God. (Luke 22:69)

What is the exceeding greatness of His power to us-ward who believe … which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places. (Eph. 1:19‑20)

We have such a high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens. (Heb. 8:1)

Behold the Lamb with glory crowned!
To Him all power be given;
No place too high for Him is found,
No place too high in heaven.

He fills the throne — the throne above,
He fills it without wrong;
The object of His Father’s love,
Theme of the ransomed’s song.

When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the Lord will hear them, I … will not forsake them. I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. (Isa. 41:17‑18)

They took … wells digged, vineyards, and oliveyards, and fruit trees in abundance: so they did eat, and were filled, and became fat, and delighted themselves in Thy great goodness. (Neh. 9:25)

Is the wilderness before you,
Desert land where drought abides?
Heavenly springs shall there restore you,
Fresh from God’s exhaustless tides.

In the desert God will teach thee
What the God that you have found,
Patient, gracious, powerful, holy;
All His grace shall there abound.

That the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children: that they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments. (Psa. 78:6‑7)

As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. (Josh. 24:15)

Oh happy house! whose little ones are
given
Early to Thee, in faith and prayer —
To Thee, their friend, who from the heights
of heaven
Guards them with more than mother’s care.

Oh happy house! where little voices
Their glad hosannas love to raise,
And childhood’s lisping tongue rejoices
To bring new songs of love and praise.

The whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw Him, they besought Him that He would depart out of their coasts. (Matt. 8:34)

Then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity. (Matt. 7:23)

If the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live. (Ezek. 33:19)

He is waiting for acceptance;
   Lost one, will you pass Him by?
Will you rush along unheeding,
   While your ears ring with His cry?
Don’t delay another moment,
   Till a more convenient day;
God with open arms will meet you;
   Loved one, come while yet you may.

The appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: which in His times He shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen. (1 Tim. 6:14‑16)

See the Savior, long expected,
Now in solemn pomp appear!
And His saints, by man rejected,
All His heavenly glory share.

Yea, Amen, let all adore Thee,
High on Thine exalted throne:
Savior, take the power and glory;
Claim the kingdoms for Thine own.

Be strong and of a good courage: for thou must go with this people unto the land which the Lord hath sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt cause them to inherit it. (Deut. 31:7)

The Lord our God be with us, as He was with our fathers: let Him not leave us, nor forsake us. (1 Kings 8:57)

Though dark be our way, since God is our
guide,
’Tis ours to obey; ’tis His to provide:
Though cisterns be broken, and creatures all
fail,
The word He has spoken shall surely prevail.

His love in times past forbids us to think
He’ll leave us at last in trouble to sink:
The Lamb in His glory is ever in view,
The pledge and the proof He will help us quite
through.

Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; that the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. (Philem. 3‑6)

We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers. (1 Thess. 1:2)

We look to meet our brethren
From every distant shore;
Not one will seem a stranger,
Though never seen before.

Our hearts with rapture burning,
The path we shall retrace,
Where now our souls are learning
The riches of Thy grace.

With Him they crucify two thieves; the one on His right hand, and the other on His left. (Mark 15:27)

One of the malefactors which were hanged railed on Him, saying, If Thou be Christ, save Thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when Thou comest into Thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with Me in paradise. (Luke 23:39‑40,42‑43)

The dying thief beheld that Lamb
Expiring by His side,
And proved the value of the name
Of Jesus crucified.

His soul, by virtue of the blood,
To paradise received;
Redemption’s earliest trophy stood,
From sin and death retrieved.

He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and He shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. (Mal. 3:3)

Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction. For Mine own sake, even for Mine own sake, will I do it. (Isa. 48:10‑11)

God maketh my heart soft. (Job 23:16)

Can we think that it pleases His loving heart
To cause us a moment’s pain?
Ah! no, but He saw through the present loss
The bliss of eternal gain.

So He waited there with a watchful eye,
With a love that is strong and sure;
And His gold did not suffer a whit more heat
Than was needed to make it pure.

I am a companion of all them that fear Thee, and of them that keep Thy precepts. (Psa. 119:63)

A man of understanding holdeth his peace. (Prov. 11:12)

Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. (1 Peter 3:11)

Shun evil companions;
   Bad language disdain;
God’s name hold in reverence —
   Don’t take it in vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest,
   Kindhearted and true;
Look ever to Jesus;
   He will carry you through.

When he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! (Luke 15:17)

Let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. (Isa. 55:7)

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9)

Some have chosen dust and ashes,
Fruit of poison trees;
Let them have nor peace nor pleasure,
Needing Thee.

Let Thy faithfulness arrest them;
Let Thy love constrain,
Till they humbly turn, repentant,
Peace obtain.

Behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet. (Rev. 4:1)

The Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. (1 Thess. 4:16‑17)

What cheering words are these!
Their sweetness who can tell?
In time and to eternal days —
’Tis with believers well!

But above all, how well
When Jesus speaks the word,
And, at the trumpet’s sounding swell,
They rise to meet their Lord!

Again he sent forth the dove out of the ark. And the dove came in to him in the evening, and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off. (Gen. 8:10‑11)

Made His own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock. And He led them on safely, so that they feared not. (Psa. 78:52‑53)

So He fed them according to the integrity of His heart; and guided them by the skillfulness of His hands. (Psa. 78:72)

I am trusting Thee to guide me;
Thou alone shalt lead;
Every day and hour supplying
All my need.

I am trusting Thee, Lord Jesus;
Never let me fall!
I am trusting Thee forever,
And for all.

When He [Jesus] had sent the multitudes away, He went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, He was there alone. (Matt. 14:23)

Holy Father, keep through Thine own name those whom Thou hast given Me, that they may be one, as We are. (John 17:11)

Of them which Thou gavest Me have I lost none. (John 18:9)

“It is I, it is I, the eternal,
   Who chose you Mine own to be —
Who chose you before the ages —
   Who chose you eternally;
I stood in the way before you,
   In the ways you would have gone;
For this is the mark of My chosen,
   That they shall be Mine alone.”

When Thou shalt make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand. (Isa. 53:10)

The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. (Gal. 3:8)

Behold I and the children which God hath given Me. (Heb. 2:13)

Yes! blessed is our portion! blessed He,
Who, in His grace before the world began,
Did set on us His love, sovereign and free,
On us the sinful heirs of dying man:
And blest us with all blessings in His Son
Whose priceless love our hearts from sin
and folly won.

Every branch that beareth fruit, He purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. (John 15:2)

God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction. (Gen. 41:52)

I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it. He hath made everything beautiful in His time. (Eccl. 3:10‑11)

Oft we shrink from the purging and
      pruning,
   Forgetting the Husbandman knows
That the deeper the cutting and paring,
   The richer the cluster that grows.

Well He knows that affliction is needed;
He has a wise purpose in view,
And in the dark valley He whispers,
“Hereafter you will know what I do.”

A time to keep silence. (Eccl. 3:7)

The prudent shall keep silence. (Amos 5:13)

The Lord is in His holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before Him. (Hab. 2:20)

The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. (Ex. 14:14)

Be silent unto God, my soul,
If this the score He writes for thee,
And “hold the rest”; play no false note
To mar His perfect harmony.

Yet be you watchful for your turn;
Strike on the instant, true and clear,
Lest from the grand, melodious whole
Your note be missing to His ear.

The light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. (John 1:5)

The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined. (Isa. 9:2)

God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. (1 John 1:5)

O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus;
   Look full in His wonderful face;
And the things of earth will grow
      strangely dim
   In the light of His glory and grace.

When ye go, ye shall come unto a people secure, and to a large land: for God hath given it into your hands; a place where there is no want of anything. (Judg. 18:10)

They shall see His face. And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign forever and ever. (Rev. 22:4‑5)

Now know we in Emmanuel’s land
   Immeasurable grace;
No longer looking to His hand,
   But gazing on His face;
Our need, ourselves, forgotten there,
   Himself our hearts adore;
The fullness of His joy we share,
   His pleasures evermore.

The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. The parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water. (Isa. 35:1,7)

I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to My people, My chosen. (Isa. 43:20)

Waters of eternal gladness
Won for us at countless price;
Lo! the desert is God’s garden,
And the wastes are Paradise.

From that cross and glory turning,
Can our eyes see aught beside?
Strangers here — the desert round us;
There, forever satisfied.

The Lord maketh poor, and maketh rich: He bringeth low, and lifteth up. He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, and He hath set the world upon them. (1 Sam. 2:7‑8)

When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise. (Psa. 42:4)

God now brings thee to His dwelling,
Spreads for thee His feast divine,
Bids thee welcome, ever telling,
What a portion there is thine.

Now we have a life in union
With the risen life above;
Now we drink in sweet communion
Some rich foretaste of His love.

The Son of Man shall be betrayed into the hands of men: and they shall kill Him, and the third day He shall be raised again. And they were exceeding sorry. (Matt. 17:22‑23)

What things? And they said unto Him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people: and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to be condemned to death, and have crucified Him. But we trusted that it had been He which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, today is the third day since these things were done. (Luke 24:19‑21)

We see Thee as the victim,
Our sins and sorrows bearing;
The Lamb once slain,
Alive again,
The crown of glory wearing.

Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? (Song of Sol. 8:5)

There was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved. (John 13:23)

I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee. (Isa. 41:13)

My Savior-God! Who gave Thy life for me,
Let nothing come between my heart and
Thee!
From Thee no thought, no secret, would I
keep,
But on Thy breast my tears of anguish weep.

My every comfort at Thy hand receive;
My every talent to Thy glory give;
Thy counsel seek in every trying hour;
In all my weakness trust Thy mighty power.

Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. (Mark 16:15)

Many that believed came, and confessed, and showed their deeds. Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed. (Acts 19:18‑20)

Oh for a passionate passion for souls!
   Oh for a pity that yearns!
Oh for the love that loves unto death!
   Oh for the fire that burns!
Oh for the fervent prayer that prevails,
   That pours itself out for the lost;
Oh for a love like unto Christ’s,
   That giveth, no matter the cost.

God, who created all things by Jesus Christ. (Eph. 3:9)

All things were made by Him and without Him was not anything made that was made. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. (John 1:3,10)

That the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me. (John 17:23)

No room for Thee! Thy love did seek
To win Thine own in vain;
For they were proud and Thou wast meek—
They would not let Thee reign.

No room for Him whose sacrifice
Can put thy guilt away?
O doubting soul, arise, arise,
Receive the Christ today!

These are the WORDS which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning Me. (Luke 24:44)

Caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable WORDS, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. (2 Cor. 12:4)

Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My WORDS shall not pass away. (Matt. 24:35)

With joy our wondering hearts retrace
Thy ways on earth, of power and grace;
We sit as learners at Thy feet,
Thy words than honey far more sweet.

Lord, now we wait for Thee to come,
And take us to Thy Father’s home;
Oh what ecstatic joy ’twill be
To spend eternity with Thee!

There is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. (Prov. 18:24)

A friend loveth at all times. (Prov. 17:17)

He was called the Friend of God. (James 2:23)

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!

Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy, for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now. (Phil. 1:3‑5)

Ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only. (Phil. 4:15)

Not all can go, nor all can give
To arm the other for the fray;
But young or old or rich or poor,
Or strong or weak — we all can pray.

Ask that the full hands open wide
To speed the message on its way,
That those who hear the call may go
And trust — that other hearts may pray.

Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a burnt offering wholly unto the Lord: and Samuel cried unto the Lord for Israel; and the Lord heard him. (1 Sam. 7:9)

Now once in the end of the world hath He appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. (Heb. 9:26)

Where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin. (Heb. 10:18)

Himself He could not save,
For He the surety stood
For all who now rely
Upon His precious blood;
He bore the penalty of guilt
When on the cross His blood was spilt.

Thou shalt hide them in the secret of Thy presence. … Thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion. (Psa. 31:20)

Thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower. (Psa. 61:3)

In this world of sin and evil,
   How we need a mighty tower,
Where for help and for deliverance
   We may flee in danger’s hour!
How we need the strength and power
   He is waiting to bestow!
How we need His glorious presence —
   His protection fully know.

A gracious woman retaineth honor. (Prov. 11:16)

A virtuous woman is a crown. (Prov. 12:4)

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. (Prov. 31:10)

Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. (Prov. 31:30)

A Christian woman’s love contains
   Such priceless, added grace —
Her healing touch that verifies
   God’s presence in her face;
The firm yet quiet loveliness
   She always undergirds,
With constant prayer that we may know
   The love that forms her words.
