Grace to endure Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Downcast and Discouraged?

Know God, comforts the downcast,
And gives grace, for each need,
Our hope, ever in the LORD,
He never fails us, always succeeds!

”We wrestle not, flesh and blood;
But principalities and powers;
Against rulers of darkness”;
Bear all God’s armor, in this hour.

Cease spreading hatred, and division;
Supporting evil, instead of good;
Pray they turn, deeply convicted;
To follow Jesus, live as they should.

And so by faith, we firmly stand;
Even though, not understood;
Despite the darkness and distress;
God is working for our good.

So, give God thanks and praise;
Sin and death, are overcome;
In Christ, now as His child;
You’re so beloved, your war is won.

With unending persecution;
Nigerian leaders do not care;
May we commit, to ceaseless praying;
To see our God, deliver there.

So midst our own, deep dark valleys
We oft’ recall, our wrong behavior
Yet focus not, upon our failures
But trust in Christ, our risen Savior.

Facing fierce fires, to burn dross
Trusting Jesus, we lay hold
Be surrendered, and stay faithful
We shall come forth as gold.

Do you yearn to draw nearer
So filled, by God’s Spirit?
Take this vessel, so faulty
Come restore LORD, and fill it.

“To revive the spirit, of the humble
Revive the heart, of those contrite”
Our Master Potter, can reshape
We His clay, remold aright.
