9: Heirs or Promises: Prisoners of Hope — Singing with Inspiration
As we work our way through the book of Joshua this quarter, we will see that he is ready to
Fight The Good Fight – Hymn 613 and to move forward into the Promised Land. We may still use last quarter’s theme hymn as this will pop up throughout this quarter as well:
Hymn 620 – On Jordan’s Stormy Banks I Stand. These two hymns will resound throughout the quarter.
Israel often slumbered and slept in all their travels to the Promised Land, which is what we find in the beginning of
Hymn 594 – Heirs Of The Kingdom. May we all be awake to go to the New Earth when Jesus comes to take us to the Promised Land.
The land that the people travelled through “reminded the people of their constant dependence on God”, which reminds us that
I Need Thee Every Hour – Hymn 483. Monday continues saying that “all humans are strangers and sojourners” as we find in
Hymn 444 – I’m A Pilgrim and
Hymn 445 – I’m But A Stranger Here.
As discussed on Tuesday and Wednesday, with all the un-Godly choices made by the travelers, we find
Marvelous Grace – Hymn 109 is given to them, just as we are able to receive today.
Thursday gives us the great reminder that
Jesus Is Coming Again – Hymn 213, which is “the ultimate fulfillment of all the promises”.
It is with great joy we find our Sister White encourages us that “the heavenly Shepherd leads His flock to fountains of living waters”:
Hymn 545 – Saviour, Like A Shepherd, so that we can go to
Jerusalem, My Happy Home – Hymn 420.
Please continue to search the scriptures this week to be blessed, and to bless others.
