πŸ’₯ Podcast: Part 5: Psalms of David (Prayers of David)

 


(This podcast was previously published on, December 4, 2021) 
 
This Podcast contains Psalm 61 through Psalm 108.

Examples:

Psalm 61

1 Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto THEE, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 For THOU hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

4 I will abide in THY tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of THY wings.

Psalm 62

1 Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from HIM cometh my salvation.

2 HE only is my rock and my salvation; HE is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.

Psalm 63

(A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.) 

1 O God, THOU art my God; early will I seek THEE: my soul thirsteth for THEE, my flesh longeth for THEE in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

2 To see THY power and THY glory, so as I have seen THEE in the sanctuary.

3 Because THY lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise THEE.

4 Thus will I bless THEE while I live: I will lift up my hands in THY name.

5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise THEE with joyful lips:

6 When I remember THEE upon my bed, and meditate on THEE in the night watches.

7 Because THOU hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of THY wings will I rejoice.

Psalm 64

1 Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:

3 Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:

4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?

6 They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.

7 But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.

9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of HIS doing.

10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in HIM; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

Psalm 65

4 Blessed is the man whom THOU choosest, and causest to approach unto THEE, that he may dwell in THY courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of THY house, even of THY holy temple.

Psalm 66

16 Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what HE hath done for my soul.

17 I cried unto HIM with my mouth, and HE was extolled with my tongue.

18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:

19 But verily God hath heard me; HE hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

20 Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor HIS mercy from me.

Psalm 68

32 Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; 

33 To HIM that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, HE doth send out HIS voice, and that a mighty voice.

34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: HIS excellency is over Israel, and HIS strength is in the clouds.

35 O God, THOU art terrible out of THY holy places: the God of Israel is HE that giveth strength and power unto HIS people. Blessed be God.

Psalm 69

14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.

15 Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.

16 Hear me, O LORD; for THY lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of THY tender mercies.

17 And hide not THY face from THY servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.

Psalm 70

4 Let all those that seek THEE rejoice and be glad in THEE: and let such as love THY salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.

5 But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: THOU art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.

Psalm 72

18 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.

19 And blessed be HIS glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with HIS glory; Amen, and Amen.

20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.

Psalm 86

(A Prayer of David.) 

1 Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

2 Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O THOU my God, save THY servant that trusteth in THEE.

3 Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto THEE daily.

4 Rejoice the soul of THY servant: for unto THEE, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

5 For THOU, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon THEE.

6 Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon THEE: for THOU wilt answer me.

πŸ’₯ John 16 (Reading through the Bible)

 
 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.

2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor Me (The Word).

4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.

5 But now I go my way to Him that sent Me; and none of you asketh Me, Whither goest thou?

6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.

8 And when He is come, He will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

9 Of sin, because they believe not on Me (The Word);

10 Of righteousness, because I go to My Father, and ye see Me no more;  (after Jesus went to the Father HE would speak by the Holy Spirit to the believer, thus "righteousness" would come to us by The Word carried by the Holy Spirit)

11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

12 I (The Word) have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

13 Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify Me (The Word): for He shall receive of Mine, and shall shew it unto you.

15 All things that the Father hath are Mine: therefore said I, that He shall take of Mine, and shall shew it unto you.

16 A little while, and ye shall not see Me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see Me, because I go to the Father.

17 Then said some of His disciples among themselves, What is this that He saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see Me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see Me: and, Because I go to the Father?

18 They said therefore, What is this that He saith, A little while? we cannot tell what He saith.

19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask Him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see Me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see Me?

20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.

22 And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.

(They would have sorrow when Jesus was taken to be crucified.  But after Jesus died and was resurrected and appeared to them before being taken into heaven, they knew no man could ever remove Jesus again from them for by HIS Spirit Jesus lived in them.)


***

23 And in that day ye shall ask Me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in My name (by the Word by the will of God), He will give it you.

(I John 5:14-15   And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask any thing according to His will, HE heareth us:  And if we know that HE hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him.)


24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in My name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.


***

25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.

26 At that day ye shall ask in My name (according to The Word): and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:  27 For the Father Himself loveth you, because ye have loved Me (The Word), and have believed that I came out from God.

28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

29 His disciples said unto Him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb. 30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.

31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?


***

32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave Me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me (The Word) ye might have peace. 

In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I (The Word) have overcome the world.

(Through HIM, The Word, we also overcome the world when we hear that Word from the Spirit of God and do it.)

πŸ’₯ Podcast: Part 4: Psalms of David. (Prayers of David)

 


(This podcast was previously published on, December 3, 2021) 
 
This Podcast contains Psalm 39 through Psalm 60.

Examples:

Psalm 39

1 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

2 I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.

3 My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,

4 LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am.

5 Behold, THOU hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before THEE: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. 

6 Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.

7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in THEE.

Psalm 40

1 I waited patiently for the LORD; and HE inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

2 HE brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

3 And HE hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

4 Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

5 Many, O LORD my God, are THY wonderful works which THOU hast done, and THY thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto THEE: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.


Psalm 41

9 Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.

10 But THOU, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.

11 By this I know that THOU favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

12 And as for me, THOU upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before THY face for ever.

13 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.

Psalm 52

(A Psalm of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Ahimelech. I Samuel 22)

1 Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually.

2 Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

3 Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. 

4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.

5 God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, HE shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. 

6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:

7 Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.

8 But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.

9 I will praise THEE for ever, because THOU hast done it: and I will wait on THY name; for it is good before THY saints.

Psalm 54

(A Psalm of David, when the Ziphims came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?) 

1 Save me, O God, by THY name, and judge me by THY strength.

2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. 

4 Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.

5 HE shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in THY truth.

6 I will freely sacrifice unto THEE: I will praise THY name, O LORD; for it is good.

7 For HE hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen HIS desire upon mine enemies.

Psalm 55

1 Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not THYSELF from my supplication.

2 Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;

3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.

4 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.

5 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.

6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.

7 Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. 

8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.

9 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.

10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow are in the midst of it.

11 Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.

12 For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hid myself from him:

13 But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.

14 We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company.

15 Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.

16 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.

Psalm 56

(A psalm of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath.) 

1 Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

2 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O THOU most High.

3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in THEE.

Psalm 57

(A Psalm of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave.) 

1 Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in THEE: yea, in the shadow of THY wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.

2 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.

3 He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up.  God shall send forth HIS mercy and HIS truth.

4 My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.

5 Be THOU exalted, O God, above the heavens; let THY glory be above all the earth.

Psalm 59

(Psalm of David; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him.)

1 Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.

2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.

3 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.

4 They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.

5 THOU therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit (judge)  all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. 

6 They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?

8 But THOU, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; THOU shalt have all the heathen in derision.

9 Because of his strength will I wait upon THEE: for God is my defence.

10 The God of my mercy shall prevent (go before) me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.

11 Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by THY power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.

12 For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.

13 Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth.

14 And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

15 Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.

16 But I will sing of THY power; yea, I will sing aloud of THY mercy in the morning: for THOU hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.

Psalm 60

(Psalm of David, to teach; when he strove with Aramnaharaim and with Aramzobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand.)

1 O God, THOU hast cast us off, THOU hast scattered us, THOU hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.

2 THOU hast made the earth to tremble; THOU hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

3 THOU hast shewed THY people hard things: THOU hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.

4 THOU hast given a banner to them that fear THEE, that it may be displayed because of the truth. 

5 That THY beloved may be delivered; save with THY right hand, and hear me.


11 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

12 Through God we shall do valiantly: for HE it is that shall tread down our enemies.

2 Thessalonians 2:16-17  Now our Lord Jesus Christ HIMSELF, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,
 
17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.

πŸ’₯ John 15 (Reading through the Bible)

 
I (The Word) am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

2 Every branch in Me that beareth not fruit He taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, He purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

4 Abide in Me (The Word), and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in Me (in The Word).

5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in Me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without Me (The Word) ye can do nothing.

6 If a man abide not in Me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

7 If ye abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

8 Herein is My Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be My disciples.

9 As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you: continue ye in My love.

10 If ye keep My commandments, ye shall abide in My love; even as I have kept My Father's commandments, and abide in His love.

11 These things have I spoken unto you, that My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

12 This is My commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

14 Ye are My friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of (from) My Father I have made known unto you.

16 Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in My name, He may give it you.

17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.

18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated you.

19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord.

If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept My saying, they will keep yours also.

21 But all these things will they do unto you for My name's sake, because they know not Him that sent Me.

22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.

23 He that hateth Me hateth My Father also.

24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both Me and My Father.

25 But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated Me without a cause.

26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, He shall testify of Me:

27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with Me from the beginning.

9 Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

10 In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

Psalm 27

1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and HE shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

Psalm 28

7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in HIM, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise HIM.

9 Save THY people, and bless THINE inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.

Psalm 29

11 The LORD will give strength unto HIS people; the LORD will bless HIS people with peace.

Psalm 30

1 I will extol THEE, O LORD; for THOU hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

2 O LORD my God, I cried unto THEE, and THOU hast healed me.

3 O LORD, THOU hast brought up my soul from the grave: THOU hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

Psalm 31

3 For THOU art my rock and my fortress; therefore for THY name's sake lead me, and guide me.

4 Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for THOU art my strength.

24 Be of good courage, and HE shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.

5 I acknowledged my sin unto THEE, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and THOU forgavest the iniquity of my sin.

8 (God says) I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with MINE eye.

10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.

11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

(A Psalm of David, when he changed his behaviour before Achish; who drove him away, and he departed.  I Samuel 21)

1 I will bless the LORD at all times: HIS praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.

3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt HIS name together.

4 I sought the LORD, and HE heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

5 They looked unto HIM, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear HIM, and delivereth them.

8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in HIM.

9 O fear the LORD, ye HIS saints: for there is no want to them that fear HIM.

10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.

Psalm 36

9 For with THEE is the fountain of life: in THY light shall we see light.

10 O continue THY lovingkindness unto them that know THEE; and THY righteousness to the upright in heart.

11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.

Psalm 37

1 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and HE shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in HIM; and HE shall bring it to pass.

6 And HE shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.

7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for HIM: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

Psalm 38

21 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.

22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.

πŸ’₯ John 14 (Reading through the Bible)

 
 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in Me (The Word).

2 In My Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

5 Thomas saith unto Him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6 Jesus saith unto him, I (The Word) am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me (The Word).

(THE WORD is the way, the truth, the life.  Several months ago, I printed testimonies given by people in our church group.  The one thing in common is when they were truly born again, they had a great desire to read Bible and to learn of God ... going to God through The Word.")

7 If ye had known Me (The Word), ye should have known My Father also: and from henceforth ye know Him, and have seen Him.

8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9 Jesus saith unto Him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known Me, Philip? he that hath seen Me (The Word) hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of Myself: but the Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works.

(The Father said:  Let there be light.   THE WORD created light.  But it was God who said it.  God and the WORD are one.)

11 Believe Me that I (The Word) am in the Father, and the Father in Me: or else believe Me for the very works' sake.

12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father.

13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it.


***

15 If ye love Me (The Word), keep My commandments.

16 And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you for ever;

17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neither knoweth Him: but ye know Him; for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth Me no more; but ye see Me: because I live, ye shall live also.

20 At that day ye shall know that I (The Word) am in My Father, and ye in Me, and I in you.


***

21 He that hath My commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me: and He that loveth Me shall be loved of My Father, and I will love him, and will manifest Myself (The Word) to him.

22 Judas saith unto Him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that Thou wilt manifest Thyself unto us, and not unto the world?

23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love Me, he will keep My words: and My Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.  

24 He that loveth Me not keepeth not My sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent Me.

25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.


27 Peace I (The Word) leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.


***

28 If ye loved Me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for My Father is greater than I.

29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in Me.

31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave Me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

1.  I know that my Redeemer lives
And ever prays for me;
A token of His love He gives,

A pledge of liberty. 

2.  I know that my Redeemer lives,
A quick’ning Spirit He;
I know eternal life He gives—

Amazing grace—to me.

3.  I find Him lifting up my head;
He brings salvation near;
His presence makes me free indeed,

And He will soon appear.

4.   He wills that I should holy be:
What can withstand His will? 
The counsel of His grace in me
He surely shall fulfill.

5.  Jesus, I hang upon Thy word:
I steadfastly believe
Thou wilt return and claim me, Lord,

And to Thyself receive.

Scriptures pertaining to this hymn:

v. 1   I know that my Redeemer lives
And ever prays for me;

Hebrews 7:25   Wherefore HE is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by HIM, seeing HE ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Romans 8:24-34    For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?   But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 

And HE that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because HE maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

For whom HE did foreknow, HE also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of HIS Son, that HE might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Moreover whom HE did predestinate, them HE also called: and whom HE called, them HE also justified: and whom HE justified, them HE also glorified. 

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? 

He that spared not HIS own Son, but delivered HIM up for us all, how shall HE not with HIM also freely give us all things?
Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. 

Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, WHO is even at the right hand of God, WHO also maketh intercession for us.

***

v. 2  I know that my Redeemer lives,
A quick’ning Spirit He;


John 14:26  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

 John 16:13  Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of HIMSELF; but whatsoever HE shall hear, that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come.

***

v. 3  His presence makes me free indeed,
And He will soon appear.

Ephesians 1:12-14 ...  That we should be to the praise of HIS glory, who first trusted in Christ.  In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,  Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of HIS glory.

John 8:31-32   Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on HIM, If ye continue in MY word, then are ye MY disciples indeed;  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

I Thessalonians 4:13-18   But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep (dead), that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep (die) in Jesus will God bring with Him. 

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (precede)  them which are asleep (dead). 

For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

***

Job 19:25   For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that HE shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
