O MAGNIFY THE LORD WITH ME

I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise \

[shall] continually [be] in my mouth.

My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: 

the humble shall hear [thereof], and be glad.

O magnify the LORD with me, 

and let us exalt his name together.

I sought the LORD, and he heard me, 

and delivered me from all my fears.

I HAVE BLOTTED OUT THY TRANSGRESSIONS

Photo provided by Sherry Lindsey Day

I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy 

transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: 

return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.

Sing, O ye heavens; for the LORD hath 

done [it]: shout, ye lower parts of the earth: 

break forth into singing, ye mountains, O 

forest, and every tree therein: for the 

LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and 

glorified himself in Israel. Thus saith the 

LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed 

thee from the womb, I [am] the LORD that 

maketh all [things]; that stretcheth forth t

he heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the 

earth by myself;

Isaiah 44: 22-24

FEAR NOT

But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, 

O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, 

Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I 

have called [thee] by thy name; thou [art] 

mine.  When thou passest through the waters, 

I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers, they 

shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through 

the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall 

the flame kindle upon thee.

Isaiah 43:1-2

GO YE THEREFORE NOT AFTER THEM

Photo provided by Janie Purser

Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many 

shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; 

and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore 

after them.  But when ye shall hear of wars 

and commotions, be not terrified: for these 

things must first come to pass; but the end 

[is] not by and by.

Luke 21:8-9

BEGOTTEN UNTO A LIVELY HOPE

Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus 

Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath 

begotten us again unto a lively hope by the 

resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

To an inheritance incorruptible, and 

undefiled, and that fadeth not away, 

reserved in heaven for you,

I Peter 1:3-4

AS MANY AS I LOVE...

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: 

be zealous therefore, and repent.

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: 

if any man hear my voice, and open the door, 

I will come in to him, and will sup with him, 

and he with me.

Revelation 3;19-20

WHAT SHALL I RENDER TO THE LORD

What shall I render unto the LORD [for] 

all his benefits toward me? I will take the 

cup of salvation, and call upon the 

name of the LORD.

HE MAKETH THE STORM CALM

He maketh the storm a calm, so that 

the waves thereof are still. Then are they 

glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth 

them unto their desired haven.

...that without ceasing I have remembrance 

of thee in my prayers night and day;

Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful 

of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;

When I call to remembrance the 

unfeigned faith that is in thee...

NOT BY WORKS

Not by works of righteousness which we have done, 

but according to his mercy he saved us, by the 

washing of regeneration, and renewing of the 

Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly 

through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

Titus 3:5-6

WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE

What shall we say then?  Shall we continue 

in sin that grace abound?  Certainly not!

How shall we who died to sin live any 

longer in it?

Or do you not know that as many 

of us were baptized into Christ Jesus 

were baptized into His death. 

Therefore we were buried with Him

through baptism into death, that just 

as Christ was raised from the dead by

the glory of the Father, even so we 

also should walk in newness of life

Romans 6:1-4

PERILOUS TIMES WILL COME

Photo provided by Allyson Jennings

Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, 

be sober, and hope to the end for the grace 

that is to be brought unto you at 

the revelation of Jesus Christ; As obedient 

children, not fashioning yourselves according 

to the former lusts in your ignorance:

But as he which hath called you is holy, 

so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;

Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

I Peter 1:13-16

SHUN PROFANE AND VAIN BABBLINGS

Photo provided by Leilani Lunceford Hankins

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, 

a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, 

rightly dividing the word of truth.

But shun profane [and] vain babblings: 

for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

II Timothy 2:15-16

MY WORD SHALL STAND

Photo provided by Jeannie Faverino

Heaven and earth shall pass away, but 

my words shall not pass away. But of 

that day and hour knoweth no [man], 

no, not the angels of heaven, but my 

Father only. But as the days of Noe 

[were], so shall also the coming of 

the Son of man be. For as in the 

days that were before the flood they 

were eating and drinking, marrying 

and giving in marriage, until the day 

that Noe entered into the ark,  And 

knew not until the flood came, and 

took them all away; so shall also the 

coming of the Son of man be. Then 

shall two be in the field; the one shall 

be taken, and the other left. Two 

[women shall be] grinding at the mill; 

the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Watch therefore: for ye know not what 

hour your Lord doth come. But know this, 

that if the goodman of the house had known 

in what watch the thief would come, he 

would have watched, and would not have 

suffered his house to be broken up.

Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an 

hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

Matthew 24:35-44

OH THAT MEN WOULD PRAISE THE LORD

Photo provided by Bonny Kobialko

Oh that [men] would praise the LORD [for] 

his goodness, and [for] his wonderful 

works to the children of men! For he satisfieth t

he longing soul, and filleth the hungry 

soul with goodness. Such as sit in darkness 

and in the shadow of death, [being] bound 

in affliction and iron; Because they 

rebelled against the words of God, and 

contemned the counsel of the most High:

Therefore he brought down their heart with 

labour; they fell down, and [there was] none 

to help. Then they cried unto the LORD in 

their trouble, [and] he saved them out of t

heir distresses. He brought them out of 

darkness and the shadow of death, and 

brake their bands in sunder.  Oh that [men] 

would praise the LORD [for] his goodness, 

and [for] his wonderful works to the 

children of men!

Psalm 107:8-15

MY GLORY, THE LIFTER OF MY HEAD

But thou, O LORD, [art] a shield for me; 

my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

I cried unto the LORD with my voice, 

and he heard me out of his holy hill. 

Selah.

Psalm 3:3-4

AND HE SHALL BE LIKE A TREE PLANTED BY THE RIVERS OF WATER

Photo provided by Leilani Lunceford Hankins

Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the 

counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the 

way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the 

scornful. But his delight [is] in the law of 

the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate 

day and night. And he shall be like a tree 

planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth 

forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also 

shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth 

shall prosper.  The ungodly [are] not so: 

but [are] like the chaff which the wind 

driveth away. Therefore the ungodly 

shall not stand in the judgment, nor 

sinners in the congregation of the 

righteous.  For the LORD knoweth 

the way of the righteous: but the way 

of the ungodly shall perish.

Psalm 1

FRET NOT THYSELF IN ANY WISE

Cease from anger, and forsake wrath:

fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

For evildoers shall be cut off: but those 

that wait upon the LORD, they shall 

inherit the earth.

JESUS STOOD AND CRIED, SAYING

Photo provided by Heather Heathcoat

Yesterday driving home from work I was praying. It concerns me that many I am talking with seem confused about Christ, the great Shepherd.

I have been praying how to really hear that great shepherds voice, correctly.

When my children, two boys and three girls, were at home, they would go down the street to play.

They always knew how far to go by my whistle. If they were ever too far and I whestled (which I can whestle very loud) they knew they were in trouble, if they didnt come because they had gone beyond my call.

As I was driving home praying the instrumental song came on the radio, "I need thee every hour".

Instantly, my heart was taken back to some sweet sweet memories of this song. As it played, I walked through the pastures of life in my mind and knew the moments I had strayed. As I continued to walk, the pastures became rich in places and dry and barren in places and my heart was saddened.

Then my heart stopped in this one place inside the pasture and rested in the stillness and the great shepard said, "You were close enough to hear me when I called.

The great Shepherd says, "Now, be still and know that I am God, and can care for your deepest needs.

PLEASANT WORDS

Photo provided by Cynthia Lilley

How much better [is it] to get wisdom than gold! 

and to get understanding rather to be chosen 

than silver!  The highway of the upright [is] to 

depart from evil: he that keepeth his 

way preserveth his soul.  Pride [goeth] before 

destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

Better [it is to be] of an humble spirit with the 

lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.

He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: 

and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy [is] he.

The wise in heart shall be called prudent: 

and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.

Understanding [is] a wellspring of life unto him 

that hath it: but the instruction of fools [is] folly.

The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, 

and addeth learning to his lips.  Pleasant words 

[are as] an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and 

health to the bones. There is a way that seemeth 

right unto a man, but the end thereof [are] the 

ways of death.

Proverbs 24:16-24

How much better [is it] to get wisdom than gold! 

MY PRESENCE SHALL GO WITH THEE, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST

My presence shall go [with thee], and I 

will give thee rest. And he said unto him, 

If thy presence go not [with me], carry us 

not up hence.  For wherein shall it be known 

here that I and thy people have found grace 

in thy sight?

From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, 

when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to t

he rock [that] is higher than I. For thou hast been 

a shelter for me, [and] a strong tower from 

the enemy. I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: 

I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.

WHAT SHOULD WE BELIEVE IN?

Photo provided by Heidi Guffey

And this is his commandment, That we should 

believe on the name of his Son Jesus 

Christ, and love one another, as he gave us 

commandment. And he that keepeth his 

commandments dwelleth in him, and he 

in him. And hereby we know that he 

abideth in us, by the Spirit which he 

hath given us. Beloved, believe not 

every spirit, but try the spirits whether 

they are of God: because many 

false prophets are gone out into the 

world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of 

God: Every spirit that confesseth that 

Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is 

of God: And every spirit that confesseth 

not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh 

is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of 

antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it 

should come; and even now already is it 

in the world.

BEFORE THE GREAT AND TERRIBLE DAY OF THE LORD

And it shall come to pass afterward, [that] I will 

pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your 

sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old 

men shall dream dreams, your young men shall 

see visions:  And also upon the servants and 

upon the handmaids in those days will I pour 

out my spirit. And I will shew wonders in the 

heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, 

and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned 

into darkness, and the moon into blood, before 

the great and the terrible day of the LORD 

come.  And it shall come to pass, [that] 

whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD 

shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in 

Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD 

hath said, and in the remnant whom the 

LORD shall call.

Joel 2:28-32

Proverbs 21:1

THE LORD WILL COME AS A THIEF IN THE NIGHT

But the day of the Lord will come as a 

thief in the night; in the which the heavens 

shall pass away with a great noise, and the 

elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth 

also and the works that are therein shall be 

burned up.
