Take time to behold Him

NT643
1
Take time to behold Him,
  Speak oft with Thy Lord,
Abide in Him always,
  And feed on His Word.
Wait thou in His presence,
  Submissive and meek,
Forgetting in nothing
  His blessing to seek.
2
Take time to behold Him,
  The world rushes on;
Spend much time in secret
  With Jesus alone.
By looking to Jesus
  Like Him thou shalt be;
Thy friends, in thy conduct,
  His likeness shall see.
3
Take time to behold Him,
  Let Him be thy guide;
And run not before Him
  Whatever betide;
In joy or in sorrow
  Still follow thy Lord,
And, looking to Jesus,
  Still trust in His Word.
4
Take time to behold Him,
  Be calm in thy soul,
Each thought and each temper
  Beneath His control.
Thus led by His Spirit
  To fountains of love,
Thou then shalt be fitted
  His mercy to prove.

Amen! Let’s take time to behold His presence, His shining face today, every moment of today!

Everyday! Let’s fight for this! Fight for His transmission by beholding Him! Let’s fight off the enemy who clouds our mind with other things preventing us to reach our goal!

Let’s fight with Him in our spirit! Keep the good fight! Amen!

Take time to behold Him,

Speak oft with Thy Lord,

Abide in Him always,

And feed on His Word.

Wait thou in His presence,

Submissive and meek,

Forgetting in nothing

His blessing to seek.

…we need to take time to absorb Him... As we daily take time to eat food, we should daily take time to absorb the Lord, take time to assimilate the riches of Christ. Our contact with the Lord should not be rushed. If we are in a hurry, we will not be able to absorb much of His riches. We need to allow adequate time for prayer. This will enable us to absorb more of the riches of our God. -HWMR The Enjoyment of Christ and our Growth in Life Unto Maturity W4D6

Take time to behold Him,

Let Him be thy guide;

And run not before Him

Whatever betide;

In joy or in sorrow

Still follow thy Lord,

And, looking to Jesus,

Still trust in His Word.

Let's spend time with the Lord today by looking to Him, speaking with Him and following Him.

It is so important for every Christian to realize this…spending time alone with our dear Lord Jesus is how He empties us of all other things, fills us with Himself, and we become an expression of God towards others. Lord, my prayer is that You would remind me to take time out of my busy days to behold You, absorbing all that You are, so You can fill me with Yourself.

Take time to behold Him,

Be calm in thy soul,

Each thought and each temper

Beneath His control.

Thus led by His Spirit

To fountains of love,

Thou then shalt be fitted

His mercy to prove.

To absorb God takes time. May we not be rushed in our time with Him!

Lord, no matter what, we would just follow You and trust in Your Word. Everyday, all we would do is give Your our time to experience and enjoy all that You are. Amen<3

In joy or in sorrow

Still follow thy Lord,

And, looking to Jesus,

Still trust in His Word.
