“I sing because I’m happy
I sing because I am free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me”
Encouraged in Christ
Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
1 Thessalonians 5:11
“And He remains God, and His heart is just as anxious to give us what we ask for, as we are to ask, and more so: because “He so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son; whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have Eternal Life.” And if He loved us while we were sinners, alienated from Him, the commonwealth of God, how much more is He willing this morning to give us exceedingly abundantly above all that we could do or think.” WMB

“Y Él sigue siendo Dios, y Su corazón está tan ansioso por darnos lo que pedimos, como lo estamos por pedir, y más: porque “Tanto amó al mundo, que dio a su Hijo unigénito; todo aquel que en Él cree, no se pierda, mas tenga Vida Eterna.” Y si Él nos amó mientras éramos pecadores, alienados de Él, la comunidad de Dios, cuánto más está dispuesto esta mañana a darnos abundantemente por encima de todo lo que podríamos hacer o pensar”. WMB
“Oh, if Christians now who will fall away, and run back, and run out, and run in and out, and then you think, “Well, I—I can’t make it.” You couldn’t make it in the first place. It’s not your place to make it. God’s already made it for you in Christ. The price is fully paid. The only thing you have to do is to accept God’s provided way and stand in it, no matter what takes place. Don’t move; rest. The Shepherd’s watching over His sheep. He knows even a sparrow. How much more does He know about you?” WMB
“Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.”
Romans 8:37

Antes, en todas estas cosas somos más que vencedores por medio de aquel que nos amó.

“The Holy Spirit, when It moves in, It takes God’s big bulldozer, and comes down and digs that old alley up, throws the dirt out, buries it in the sea of forgetfulness, and terraces off a nice big place, and puts up a great big mansion; and He lives there. And the flowers of love, joy, peace, longsuffering, goodness, and mercies, and kindness, and faith is blooming around this house.Glory!” WMB

“El Espíritu Santo, cuando entra, toma la gran excavadora de Dios, y baja y excava ese viejo callejón, tira la tierra, la entierra en el mar del olvido, y construye terrazas en un lugar grande y bonito, y levanta una gran mansión; y Él vive allí. Y las flores del amor, el gozo, la paz, la paciencia, la bondad, la misericordia, la amabilidad y la fe están floreciendo alrededor de esta casa.Gloria!” WMB
Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
Psalm 55:1
~
Escucha, oh Dios, mi oración, y no te escondas de mi súplica.
Salmo 55:1
So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross
Until my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it some day for a crown
So I’ll cherish the old rugged crossUntil my trophies at last I lay downI will cling to the old rugged crossAnd exchange it some day for a crown
Then when we pray, we must have the Token to present with our prayers, as I said, and now believe for ourself and apply the Token to the whole family, like in Egypt, Jericho, or either in Acts 16:31. We find out that Paul told the Roman centurion, say, “Believe thou, and all thy house shall be saved.” Apply It to your family. If you got an unsaved child, lay the Token right on top of him, say, “Lord God, I claim him.” WMB

Entonces cuando oremos, debemos tener la Señal para presentarla con nuestras oraciones, como dije, y ahora creer por nosotros mismos y aplicar la Señal a toda la familia, como en Egipto, Jericó, o en Hechos 16:31. Descubrimos que Pablo le dijo al centurión romano: “Cree tú, y toda tu casa será salva”. Aplíquelo a su familia. Si tiene un hijo que no es salvo, coloque la Señal justo encima de él y diga: “Señor Dios, lo reclamo”. WMB
“And sometimes we have more troubles when we become a Christian than we did when we were sinners. Course, It is written, “Many is the afflictions of the righteous, but God delivereth him from them all.” God promised many afflictions, strange feelings, and strange things that would be beyond our understanding, but it’s always done for our good. We just can’t understand it, because, if we did, then it would not be a faith to us; we would go with an understanding. But we do it, and we have it, and we believe by faith, His Word, that it’s going to work some good thing for us.” WMB
