I'm pressing on the upward way

All thanks to God almighty. We just finished a preparation meeting for Sunday service on a Saturday evening and I got to lie down on the bed, then the holy Spirit brought the hymn into my spirit, can't even remember the last time I sang the hymn, but I thank the holy Spirit for the inspiration and by the time I goggle it and I sang it with joy in my heart and laughter in my mouth, it was a confirmation to what holy Spirit has been sharing with for some few days ago. All thanks to God almighty.

And a great thanks to the initiator of this platform. More grace and God bless you in Jesus name. Amen.

Glory to Jesus... I was just so weak to pray, crying like a baby and asking the Lord to help me, immediately this song came to my spirit I grabbed my phone googled it and I landed here... the stanza 3 is a light bulb moment for me cos devil has been throwing the darts of prayerlessness at me but today my faith has caught a joyful sound... I will keep pressing on the upward call still I lay hold of something... It's too late to give up.

Also, stanza 2 stood out for me, the song quickly took out doubts and fears from me currently am trusting God for success in my Nclex exam and the enemy has been bringing fear and doubts to me and I refuse to doubt what God has told me and fear... I press upward to the success God has for me!! I have victory in Christ Jesus!! 😄

God bless you for putting this together. Heaven reward you!

Awakened early this morning at 4:45 while it was still dark outside, the Holy Spirit brought this hymn to mind that I have not sung in 50 years. Post-covid prices are SO much higher for everything: gasoline, food, housing - it is insane. So many tornados, floods in some areas, while fought & wildfires in others. I have pondered, Lord where is all this leading. I Googled it and found this website, so I could sing it. ❤️ blessings from Greeley Colorado & Texas USA.

Keep doing what is best unto the Lord Jesus Christ. Surely no one serve the Lord & be empty.

It's a great hymn. I sang it with endless joy ; the joy of the Lord. During my secondary school days, it was one of the hymns we used to sing during our scriptural Union meeting. I loved to sing it especially when I am in the Spirit. I feel rejuvenated at hearing the lyrics

I was singing in the Spirit this morning and I was receiving a chorus from the Lord. I have loved this old hymn for 50 years since I first heard it. Then today I began to sing the lyrics to the new tune that the Holy Spirit Was giving me. God is a Good Good God Absolutely all the time.

The Lord gave me an instruction very profound in 2021, Last night I was just asking the Lord why things seems to go a different direction from my/our expectation, I was worried with too many questions in my Spirit; then I slept off, woke up this morning with this song in my Spirit, that I've not sang in ages, search for the lyrics and I could tell the answer I seek is in stanza 1 and very much in stanza 2 "My heart has no desire to stay

Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground."

Because at this point it was looking like doubt arise but my heart has never desired to stay.... But to press onward and forward. Thank you Jesus, your love for me is overwhelming, always leading, guiding and laying my concerns to rest. I love you Lord.

This is an inspirational and encouraging hymn. Thank you for the piano background

After our morning prayer with my family, this inspiring hymn came to my spirit man. I went on to google it and found this your master piece with the piano backing the lyrics.

Thanks so much and may God abundantly bless you.

Thank you. Was feeling the need to sing this old song I remembered from my childhood. I searched for the words and was led here and was able to sing it with the piano. Thank you.
