BLESSED ASSURANCE JESUS IS MINE.

As  we are going into the new year I have  wonderful testimonies i wanted to share but i am going to put it down in form of song,already titled above.Jesus is my peculiar right,in him i have the light;His word and the Lamp as a guide.

I  walked in his footsteps and surely will keep my walk, following his footsteps daily.Therefore i shall be sharing my testimonies with you here of God goodness,mercies, love, compassion and grace through Christ Jesus by singing one of Fanny J. Crosby :

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine


1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long.

2. Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight,
Angels descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long.

3. Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Saviour am happy and blest,
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.
.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour all the day long.

I want to thank God for his love and his salvation plans .Glory to God in the highest.Hallelujah.

LET US WITH A GLADSOME MIND

LET us with a gladsome mind,
Praise the Lord for he is kind;

For his mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

Let us sound his name abroad,
For of gods he is the God;

He, with all-commanding might,
Filled the new-made world with light;

All things living he doth feed,
His full hand supplies their need;

He His chosen race did bless,
In the wasteful wilderness;

He hath with a piteous eye,
Looked upon our misery;

Let us then with gladsome mind,
Praise the Lord, for he is kind.
                                                   John Milton


I have loved this song from childhood, and has been one of my  favourite song  because  while on school assembly ground we do sing it ,singing from our SOP (songs of praise).Psalm 103:17 says "The mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting."In his mercy has he kept us till this day for he is our God.The psalmist also said in another song Psalm 92:1 "It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord , and to sing praises unto thy name,O most high."

That's the difference between my God and any other gods on the earth , always ready to be my close  confidant.He is God and him alone is worthy, his name alone is worthy, his acts alone is worthy, his faithfulness alone is worthy, of being sound abroad.Among gods our God is the God.He should be praised for making us his chosen race, a blessed generation.

John Milton appreciate his goodness and mercy by singing this song, let's join in singing this song  again and again.You are welcome.

WONDERFUL STORY OF lOVE

     WONDERFUL Story of love;tell
      it to me again;
Wonderful story of love;wake the
      immortal strain!
Angels with rapture announce it,
      shepherds with wonder receive it;
Sinner, O won't you believe it?
      wonderful story of love.
Won...der...full! Won...der...full!
      Won...der...full!
Wonderful story of love.

Wonderful story of love;tho'
      you are far away;
Wonderful story of love; still He
      doth call to-day;
Calling from Calvary's  mountain,
      down from the crystal bright
      fountain,
E'en from the dawn of creation,
      wonderful story of love.

Wonderful story of love
      Jesus provides a rest;
Wonderful story of love;for all the
      pure and blest,
Rest in those mansions above us,
      with those who've gone on before
 us,
Singing the rapturous chorus, won-
      derful story of love.
                                                                                 J. M. Driver.

 For God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.This is the wonderful love that God has for the generation of mankind by giving us his only begotten Son.That's the pain of the devil and his fallen angels.

The Angel of God announced this wonderful story of love unto the shepherds ,that reminded me what some teachings called Silent Night,Holy Night .That's not the issue on ground, i am focusing on what happened  that very night. The shpherds saw an Angel of God with  the multitude of host of heaven praising God.

Let me take you to the Scripture in Luke 2 : 1-20 (NASB)

1Now in those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, that a census be taken of all the inhabited earth.2This was the first census taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria.3And everyone was on his way to register for the census, each to his own city.4Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,5 in order to register along with Mary, who was engaged to him, and was with child.6While they were there, the days were completed for her to give birth.7And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.8In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night.9And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.10But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people;11for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12"This will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." 13And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, 14"Glory to God in the highest,And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased." 15When the angels had gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds began saying to one another, "Let us go straight to Bethlehem then, and see this thing that has happened which the Lord has made known to us." 16So they came in a hurry and found their way to Mary and Joseph, and the baby as He lay in the manger.17When they had seen this, they made known the statement which had been told them about this Child.18And all who heard it wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds.19But Mary treasured all these things, pondering them in her heart. 20The shepherds went back, glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard and seen, just as had been told them.
The angel rejoice of a long thirst for Saviour  by humans have finally arrived and they rejoice  by giving God the glory.The Lord want it to happen and he protected the Child Jesus and today he is our Saviour who has liberated  those who believed him, he still does that, even now.

O sinners will you believe this wonderful story of love, the bible declared that "  Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us,that we should be called the sons of God..." 1 John 3:1 That's the wonderful story of love.The Lord has the precious stories for every sinner, his hand of Love still strech out still willing to save who ever comes to him, he once said  whoever comes to him he will in no wise cast away. To escape the  fiery Judgement of God i implore you to believe now.

Christ when he was telling his disciples that he goes to prepare a place for them, so  that wherever he is they might be there too, said in his father's house there are many mansions.That's the wonderful story of love.Christ  does  not want anyone to go Hell.He want us to live with him and be with him , to dwell in a place of Joy, Happiness, place of rest!

With the Lord shall we all be and there shall we sing  and praise the saints that have gone. There is no story as the wonderful story of God's LOVE.He has made us his own son and through that we knew that we shall reign as Sons of God.

Praise the Lord.

How Firm a Foundation....

How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,

is laid for your faith in his excellent word!

What more can he say than to you he hath said,

You who unto Jesus for refuge have fled.


"Fear not, I am with thee; O be not dismayed!

 For  I  am thy God, and will still give thee aid;

I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,

upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.



"When through the deep waters I call thee to go,

the rivers of grief shall not thee overflow;

for I will be with thee, in troubles to bless,

and sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.





"The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose,

I will not, I will not desert to its foes;

that soul, though all hell shall endeavour to shake,

I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake."
                                                                                     John Rippon
 
 
Here lies great faith and great  composed song.In the midst of trials i will go out for the Lord. In the midst of oppositions i will do the works of the Lord gladly.I will neither panic nor fear for Jehovah Jireh is with me.That made me remember the word of the Lord " Who ever come unto me i will in no wise cast away. The Lord shall not forsake, friends may forsake, families may neglect but the Lord shall be with me.
 
 
His omnipotent hands shall cause me to be bold, they hold me  through all his works.I shall not fear and i will not be dismayed. Though many have lost their faith , mine shall not be lost. My saviour is my strength.The Lord is my power!The rivers of grief shall not overflow me.I remain on top in the name of Jesus.He shall not desist from helping me and i will never stop  leaning on him for repose.
