No One Ever Cared For Me Like Jesus

Christ's followers have a good reason to endure tough times. The Lord has assured us in His Word that better times are ahead. 

1 Peter 5:6  Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: 

If we will humble (surrender} our will and our worries to the Lord; in His own will and time we will see Him answer. 

By strengthening our walk with God through Bible study and prayer, we will see the work of God.

1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

No one ever cared for me like Jesus.

“I would love to tell you what I think of Jesus,   —   Since I found in Him a friend so strong and true.   —   I would tell you how He changed my life completely;   —   He did something no other friend could do.

Chorus:

“No one ever cared for me like Jesus;   —  There's no other friend so kind as He.   —   No one else could take the sin And darkness from me;   —   O how much He cared for me.

“Ev'ry day He comes to me with new assurance;   —   More and more I understand His word of love.   —   But I'll never know just why He came to save me,   —   Till someday I see His blessed face above.”

Sweet By And By

When I think of Heaven, I like two verses best of all:

John 14:3  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people — born again people! 

Jesus wanted His people to know He meant this thing, so He restated His intentions in the last chapter of the last book of the Bible.

Revelation 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

In the sweet by and by.

“In the sweet by and by —  We shall meet on that beautiful shore.   —   In the sweet by and by   —   We shall meet on that beautiful shore.

“We shall sing on that beautiful shore,   —   The melodious songs of the blest.   —   And our spirits shall sorrow no more,   —   Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.

“To our bountiful Father above,   —   We will offer our tribute of praise   —   For the glorious gift of His love   —   

And the blessings that hallow our days.”

There Shall Be Showers Of Blessings

The Lord has given believers an incredible treasure of spiritual riches that are ours to draw from as we pass through this world.

Between the Corona Virus and thugs ravishing our country, we need showers of blessings.  

Ezekiel 34:26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing.

There shall be showers of blessings.

“There shall be showers of blessing:   —   This is the promise of love;   —   There shall be seasons refreshing,    —   Sent from the Savior above. 

Chorus:

“Showers of blessing,   —   Showers of blessing we need:

Mercy drops 'round us are falling,    —   But for the showers we plead. 

“There shall be showers of blessing,   —   Precious reviving again;    —   Over the hills and the valleys,    —   Sound of abundance of rain. 

“There shall be showers of blessing:    —   Send them upon us, O Lord;   —   Grant to us now a refreshing;    —   Come and now honor Thy Word.

“There shall be showers of blessing,   —   Oh that today they might fall.   —   Now as to God we're confessing,   —   Now as on Jesus we call.” `

His Name Is Wonderful

There is nothing common about Jesus, He is so far beyond our level of comprehension that we can never figure Him out, yet He can be known by a little child. 

Isaiah 9:6  . . . . . . and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

He Loves us - Jer. 31:3; Rom. 8:38-39.

He supports us - Psalm 18:35; Deut 33:27.

He sustains us - 2 Tim. 1:12.

                 

He comforts us - John 14:16-18.

 He provides for us - Luke 12:32; Matt. 6:25-33; Phil. 4:19.

He is the creator and provider of peace. And, those who know Him know all about peace, John 14:27; John 16:33a; Phil. 4:7. 

May we never forget Who Jesus is. He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.

Has He been enthroned as Lord and King in your life?

His Name is Wonderful.
