Pondering the Poverty

Read:  Psalm 49 / Proverbs 24 / Isaiah 59 /Acts 27

 

Psalm 49:8,15 The redemption of their soul is precious... But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.

Proverbs 24:11-12 If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death… doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it?

Isaiah 59:16 He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.

Acts 27:25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.

 

When pondering the poverty

Of precious souls who yet are lost,

We ought to seek more earnestly

To show to them redemption’s cost. 

 

We ought to speak with strong persuasion

With evidence they may perceive,

And we should pray on each occasion

That they will know why we believe.
