Daily Bible Verse

1 Peter 1:8-9

HYMNAL: The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power

Author: Civilla D. Martin

Listen:

1. The blood that Jesus once shed for me,
As my Redeemer, upon the tree;
The blood that setteth the prisoner free,
Will never lose its power.

---

Refrain
It will never lose its pow’r,
It will never lose its pow’r;
The blood that cleanses from all sin
Will never lose its power.

---

2. It gives us access to God on high,
From far off places it brings us nigh;
To precious blessings that never die,
It will never lose its power. [Refrain]

---

3. It is a shelter for rich and poor,
It is to Heaven the open door;
The sinner’s merit forevermore,
It will never lose its power. [Refrain]

---

4. And when with all the blood washed throng
We sing in glory redemption’s song;
We’ll pass the glorious truth along,
It has never lost its power. [Refrain]

"Please pray for my daughter Maggie who has a number of medical issues and no doctor seems to have an answer for the root cause. She tried to get into the Mayo Clinic and was recently denied. She is a string believer, but these past three months have really impacted her body and soul. Thank you. God bless you."

"Eric and Teresa: Eric’s hip, PTSD and his VA disability claim. Teresa’s neck, spine and right shoulder/arm, undiagnosed mouth/esophagus issues as well as our overall health and finances. Thank you so much! GOD Bless all who are praying for us!"

Please cover our son Glen B. in prayer who is suffering from severe depression and needs help with anger. He was divorced in the Fall of 2021 after 20-years. Glen has a 25-yr old stepson he raised and a 13-yr old daughter, but due to distance and her teenage schedule, he rarely sees them. Glen keeps busy with work and cycling; however, when he is alone the depression sets in. If things don't go "as planned", he gets angry, so he ends relationships before he gets too close to avoid the hurt. Not sure why, but when I told Glen that HE needs to pray and not depend on just me, he said that "God had let him down". Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I pray God continue to give us His mercy, His grace and His blessings.

"Prayers for my brother, Vernon Chandler in Germany. He will be 72 years old next month. He has been experiencing paralysis to his upper extremities that has gotten worse this past year to now he has no movement to his left hand and only slight movement to part of his right hand. He can only type with one finger now. It is getting worse each week. He is still hoping and praying to get seen in an Army Hospital and hoping that a neurologist can determine the cause and possible treatment. He is feeling down with his poor health and has been making arrangements for his funeral including to have me do his graveside service here in South Carolina after he passes. Please lift up my brother and his family. Thank you for your prayers. Shalom Shalom. Dr. Joseph A. Chandler"
