HOPE FOR LIFE



LIFE DOWN HERE



A meteor from Heaven
brought Living Hope to Earth
First found in a livery stable
After Mary’s virgin birth

She bore her first Son
Our Father’s very own
and before His Life was done
Jesus made His Father known

Light split the darkness
Bringing truth to broken hearts
and healed all who would believe
Believing in Him is our only vital part

A Living Rock from outer space
Crash-landed on this dying planet
And because of God’s great mercy and grace
Life down here has never been the same

Matthew 11:25-30 (NIV)
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will
give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for
I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."


LIGHT



Let there be light

When darkness invades

Let there be peace

In the presence light makes



Let there be hope

When fear rushes in

Let there be confidence

In God who hates sin



Let there be faith

When panic ensues

Let there be freedom

To believe Holy Truth



Let there be love

To lessen heavy weights

Let there be Jesus

In your heart just the same




Matthew 11:25-30 (NIV)
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will
give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for
I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

COME TO JESUS

Come to Jesus
Sent from above
Come to Jesus
Don't fear His love

Come to Jesus
Lay down your burdens
Come to Jesus
Before despair worsens

Come to Jesus
Trust Him today
Come to Jesus
Be healed by faith

Come to Jesus
Take up His yoke
Come to Jesus
Find peace and hope

"Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me.
Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how
to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how
I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything
heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn
to live freely and lightly." Matthew 11:28-30 (The Message)

FORWARD VISION

PSALM 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. ______________________________________

Ahead of me I see
The faith of God before me
Shining, shining full of hope
And comfort to my soul

Ahead of me I see
The Word of God before me
Shining, shining pure in truth
And counsel for my good

Ahead of me I see
A True Friend's face before me
Calling, calling out of the dark
Every hidden fear of my heart

Ahead of me my eyes now see
A vision of Father God before me
Shining, shining in the light
The freedom I'm seeking in Christ

The LORD will keep you from all harm -- he will
watch over your life; the LORD will watch over
your coming and going both now and forevermore.
PSALM 121:7-8

VISION

I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision.
Acts 26:19

If we lose the vision, we alone are responsible, and the
way we lose the vision is by spiritual leakage. If we do
not run our belief about God into practical issues, it is
all up with the vision God has given. The only way to
be obedient to the heavenly vision is to give our
utmost for God's highest, and this can only be done
by continually and resolutely recalling the vision.

The test is the sixty seconds of every minute, and the
sixty minutes of every hour, not our times of prayer
and devotional meetings. "Though it tarry, wait for it."
We cannot attain to a vision, we must live in the
inspiration of it until it accomplishes itself. We get
so practical that we forget the vision. At the beginning
we saw it but did not wait for it; we rushed off into
practical work, and when the vision was fulfilled, we
did not see it. Waiting for the vision that tarries is
the test of our loyalty to God. It is at the peril of our
soul's welfare that we get caught up in practical
work and miss the fulfilment of the vision.

Watch God's cyclones. The only way God sows His
saints is by His whirlwind. Are you going to prove
an empty pod? It will depend on whether or not
you are actually living in the light of what you have
seen. Let God fling you out, and do not go until He
does. If you select your own spot, you will prove an
empty pod. If God sows you, you will bring forth
fruit. It is essential to practice the walk of the feet
in the light of the vision.
