7: Jesus, The Anchor of The Soul – Singing With Inspiration
The titles of the thirteen Sabbaths of study this quarter give us two hymns to use as the themes:
Hymn 593 – In Times Like These and
Hymn 177 – Jesus, Your Blood and Righteousness.
Hymn 534 – Will Your Anchor Hold? is answered clearly in our lesson study title this week, as does the memory text.
Hymn 499 – What a Friend We Have in Jesus (verse 2) answered the Sabbath afternoon question about getting discouraged.
The Word we are blessed with we can say
Lord, I Have Made Thy Word My Choice – Hymn 273¸ as they are
Wonderful Words of Life – Hymn 286. We can then pray
Lord, Bless Thy Word to Every Heart – Hymn 667.
We do not wish to crucify our Lord again, says Monday, as does verse 3 of
Hymn 588 – Lord of All Nations.
Tuesday reminds us that “there is no other means for that forgiveness besides Jesus (Hebrews 10:1-14)”:
Hymn 299 – Forgive Our Sins As We Forgive and in
Hymn 480 – Dear Lord and Father.
Salvation and Faith are the two key words on Wednesday:
Hymn 339 – God Is My Strong Salvation, and
Hymn 646 – To the Name That Brings Salvation, then
Hymn 608 – Faith Is the Victory,
Hymn 523 – My Faith Has Found a Resting Place,
Hymn 517 – My Faith Looks Up to Thee, and
Hymn 602 – O Brother, Be Faithful.
Hebrews 6:19 returns to us on Thursday as does
Hymn 534 – Will Your Anchor Hold?
We are bound for The Promised Land! Hallelujah!! –
Hymn 620 – On Jordan’s Stormy Banks. Come, Lord Jesus, come – very soon.
