These song came into my mind as I was worried, and I believed He has taken control for assuring me that He is the solid rock and every other situations are sinking sand.
Piggott, Arkansas, United States
Such a beautiful song! Always love signing this song in church!
Asaba, Nigeria
Praise God! I had challenges for some months now, and my wife and I kept holding on to God. He kept His sustenance over us and we kept wondering when all these troubles will be over. Sometimes, all we could do was just seat in His presence, not knowing what to pray any more. Then suddenly, when it seemed tightest, God showed up and this time again, this time, I was like as if was in a dream, and short of words. All that came to my spirit was this song.
Whatever you are going through, hold on and stay strong in Jesus, JESUS NEVER FAILS! HALLELUYAH!!!
Christ is all in all
Zaria, Kaduna, Nigeria
This song is just being ministered in my spirit because every other situations I am facing now are sinking sand.
Lekki, Lagos State, Nigeria
With this song in my spirit each day nothing else matters to me. I care about nothing else in this life except the love and peace of Christ in my life which surpasses all understanding. 😢😢
Thank You precious Jesus!
Hoima, Uganda
I was preparing to share in night prayer at church from Psalms 7 and this hymn came to my heart.
It is appropriate as parents are struggling to send children back to school.
