...While perusing through a Christian Hymnal, I
came
to a realization that there is a wealth of "Gospel" in the hymns that we
Christians sing. From The Old Rugged Cross to Power in the
Blood
... we sing about Jesus and His love for us.... what incredible LOVE!
...Most of the hymns we sing are truly "All About Jesus"... I don't know what YOUR favorite hymn is, but, as I went from hymn to hymn, it occurred to me that I have many favorites.
...Basically, I prefer hymns and songs that tell of the saving Grace of God and the POWER of the blood of Jesus to cleanse us of our sin. Hymns that tell of SALVATION by the shed blood of Jesus.... of LIFE after death ... eternal LIFE with Jesus!
...Hymns that LIFT UP the name of Jesus and Glorify our Lord and Savior. I feel led to begin a series about the time-honored hymns and spirituals, which I believe have been given to the various song writers by Almighty God Himself, to help us to WORSHIP God for WHO HE IS.
... God lives in our PRAYERS and WORSHIP ... HE demands that we sing PRAISES to Him! Scripture tells us that if we do not WORSHIP GOD, the hills and mountains will clap their hands in PRAISE to Almighty God!
... Truly, all creation is admonished to WORSHIP GOD in some form or fashion. One of the FIRST HYMNS that I learned to love after becoming a child of the Living God more than fifty years ago, was introduced to me by a dear Methodist friend. It tells of the wonderful cleansing power of the Blood Of Christ... YES, There is truly POWER IN THE BLOOD!
... "Would you be free from your burden of sin? There's POWER in the BLOOD, POWER in the Blood.
Would you over evil a victory to win? There's wonderful POWER in The BLOOD.
... There is POWER, POWER, wonder working POWER in the BLOOD of the LAMB, There is POWER, POWER wonder working POWER in the precious blood of the LAMB!
... Friend, if that don't light your fire, your wood is wet!
... Many songs have been given to us about the POWER of the BLOOD of Jesus to CLEANSE us from SIN. I am at a loss to name my FAVORITE... they are all so marvelous! Perhaps YOU will tell me what YOUR favorite hymn is... I would appreciate that very much.
... Scripture tells us that without the shedding of blood, there can be no cleansing from sin ... In the old testament, we had the shed blood of animals ... and burnt offerings. The NEW TESTAMENT brings salvation and cleansing from sin by the shed blood on that Old Rugged Cross by none other than the Son of God, Jesus, our Redeemer.
... Jesus shed His blood that you and I might LIVE! Jesus became sin in our place! Such incredible LOVE... AGAPE LOVE!
... Oh, what a Savior! Because Jesus shed His blood on that cross at Calvary, you and I can claim VICTORY over death! We call it SALVATION through the shed blood of Christ, plus NOTHING we can do to deserve or earn salvation!
... It is a free gift, bought and paid for by God... WHY? because God desires that NONE should perish, but that all might be SAVED! GOD IS LOVE!
"Thank you, Lord Jesus, for loving even me ... so much that you would have died on that cross if I was the only sinner in this world! Lord Jesus, I love you and want to serve you. I want to be in Your perfect will at all times. Help me, Jesus, to be your vessel here on earth, filled with Your Holy Spirit ... ready to say, Here am I, Oh Lord... send ME. May I ever proclaim to "whosoever" that JESUS SAVES."
... YES, there is POWER in the BLOOD OF CHRIST! Now, GO and TELL somebody where they, too, can find LIFE ... EVERLASTING LIFE IN JESUS!
... You may reply to this email with YOUR FAVORITE HYMN or SONG. I will share it with "whosoever"...
Grace to you and yours ABUNDANTLY!
