Encouragement: Spafford’s Hymn/It Is Well With My Soul

Posted on by JosephinesDesigns.com

Hey Sweet Friends,

Here is the history of the amazing hymn: It Is Well With My Soul.

In the darkest times…”we entrust our souls to a faithful Creator.”

Be encouraged Sweet Friends, our God is with us!!

The Lord also encouraged Spafford to write this hymn after losing all his children. And on that long journey to meet his wife while crossing over the place his children passed away…he wrote this incredibly hymn of truly tremendous faith.

Jesus loves you and He will NEVER leave you or forsake you!!

You only need to trust in Him as Lord, you are His child!!

May this hymn be yours and my anthems each day of our lives…in the good and the bad!!

Be safe, be kind and know you are not alone!!

Enjoy the testimony and may you be encouraged!! And then listen or sing along to the hymn.

Let our voices rise and to praise and glorify a truly all mighty God!! One who loves you so very very much!!

Keep serving Him well Dear Ones!!

Love, hugs and prayers….k

Know therefore that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God, who keeps His covenant and His lovingkindness to a thousandth generation with those who love Him and keep His commandments;

Deuteronomy 7:9 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.

Deuteronomy 6:5 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us.

1 John 4:10-12 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the lovingkindness of the Lord.

Psalm 33:5 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

 

For the Lord is righteous, He loves righteousness; The upright will behold His face.

Psalm 11:7 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

 

For the Lord loves justice And does not forsake His godly ones; They are preserved forever,

Psalm 37:28 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

 

For whom the Lord loves He reproves, Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.

Proverbs 3:12 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

 

The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, But He loves one who pursues righteousness.

Proverbs 15:9 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

 

A friend loves at all times,

Proverbs 17:17 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may [a]be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 If you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 Therefore [b]you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

 

Matthew 5:43-48 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

“In Your lovingkindness You have led the people whom You have redeemed; In Your strength You have guided them to Your holy habitation.

Exodus 15:13 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

[ Promises of God ] “Then it shall come about, because you listen to these judgments and keep and do them, that the Lord your God will keep with you His covenant and His lovingkindness which He swore to your forefathers.

Deuteronomy 7:12 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

by loving the Lord your God, by obeying His voice, and by holding fast to Him; for this is your life and the length of your days, that you may live in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.”

Deuteronomy 30:20 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

“He is a tower of deliverance to His king, And shows lovingkindness to His anointed, To David and his descendants forever.”

2 Samuel 22:51 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

[ Solomon’s Prayer ] Then Solomon said, “You have shown great lovingkindness to Your servant David my father, according as he walked before You in truth and righteousness and uprightness of heart toward You; and You have reserved for him this great lovingkindness, that You have given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.  

1 Kings 3:6 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.

1 Chronicles 16:34 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; He who keeps understanding will find good.

Proverbs 19:8 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Last Day of #SABJC2019

Hi Dearest Friends,

I will be filming on the day. I wanted our last day to be on the day together.

I will also spend some time the week after reaching out to each of you who sent beautiful pictures of your work. As I had mentioned before, I would love to create a posting of everyone’s beautiful work!!

I am so encouraged by each who attended and those who stopped by as well. And because of the beauty of YouTube, these camp days can be viewed at anytime. 🙂

The Lord has blessed my heart through this process of digging deeper in His Word. He has also encouraged fun projects and blessed us all by those who have kindly supported our camp!! Thank you…and you all know who you are to us. 🙂

I am humbled as we begin moving into Fall. And have been already working on our Grace and Gratitude Project. Be sure to be praying if you are to participate in this Fall project. I will have limited kits…so just let me know: JosephinesDesigns.com@gmail.com

See y’all tomorrow. Enjoy your last night as campers…you all have been such a blessing!!
Hugs and prayers….k 🙂

Jeremiah 29:11-13 NASB

11 For I know the plans that I [a]have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.13 You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.
