Ancient of Days - Shane & Shane



Though the nations rage, kingdoms rise and fall
There is still one King reigning over all
So I will not fear for this truth remains
That my God is, the Ancient of Days

 

None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is, the Ancient of Days

 

Though the dread of night overwhelms my soul
He is here with me, I am not alone
O His love is sure, and He knows my name
For my God is, the Ancient of Days

 

None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is, the Ancient of Days

 

Though I may not see what the future brings
I will watch and wait for the Savior King
Then my joy complete, standing face to face
In the presence of the Ancient of Days

None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is, the Ancient of Days
For my God is, the Ancient of Days

Word for 2021 - Remain - Stay.

I ended 2020 by deciding to end the blog. 10 years felt like enough. But with God, one must expect that what is planned can be changed by a word from him.

On January 2nd I started watching a conference from a church in Texas and the first message was titled “Remain in a leaving culture.” Well … it got me thinking.

Was it an answer to the prayer about the blog? And that quickly?

The words “remain and stay” kept coming back so  finally I changed my mind and went back to the blog but with a different approach; There will be more teaching of the Word and maybe less music videos. It all depends on how the Holy Spirit leads.

 First music video 2021 was “Nearer my God to thee”.

When I think back on it now, the song agrees with the words that became the start of 2021 

“Remain –Stay”. 

You might be in a position where you have to decide about your life and your faith. You have many questions. You are tired of opposition. You are in a place where you had never ever thought you would be and you want to get away from it all. What to do?

Here is my word for you in 2021:

Remain in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

Stay closer to God. Cling to him even more.

Read the Word – the Bible!

Ask the Holy Spirit to open upp the Word to you and give you guidance.

 No matter what storms you will go through this year;

Get closer to God!

That is the only safe place to be.

 Here is the link to the message. It starts at 29:51

I wish you all the best for 2021.

And most off all a steadfast faith in God the Father; God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Sincerely yours 

Ida

The Paradigm - Michael Card

He is poor, he is blind
He will be a paradigm
One of Jesus' greatest finds
There beside the road

Calling out, he has the nerve
To want what he does not deserve
All the beggar's begging for
Is mercy from the Lord

 

So come all you beggars
Up on your feet, take courage
He's calling to you
Surrender your striving
And find the nerve
To boldly ask for
What you don't deserve

 

A timeless moment caught in time
The beggar leaves it all behind
Then the perfect paradigm
Calls Jesus by name

Falling down upon his knees
With one request, he wants to see
He could see immediately
When Jesus said "go"

 

So come all you beggars
Up on your feet, take courage
He's calling to you
Surrender your striving
And find the nerve
To boldly ask for
What you don't deserve

 

He is poor, he is blind
He will be a paradigm
One of Jesus' greatest finds
There beside the road

 

Come all you beggars
Up on your feet, take courage
He's calling to you
Surrender your striving
And find the nerve
To boldly ask for
What you don't deserve
