Bible Passage Open Heavens Devotional April 25, 2025

 But Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.

³¹ And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.

³² And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.

³³ And all the city was gathered together at the door.

³⁴ And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.

³⁵ And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.

³⁶ And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

Hymn Open Heavens Devotional April 25, 2025

1. Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
   that calls me from a world of care,
   and bids me at my Father’s throne
   make all my wants and wishes known.
   In seasons of distress and grief,
   my soul has often found relief,
   and oft escaped the tempter’s snare
   by thy return, sweet hour of prayer!

2. Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
   the joys I feel, the bliss I share
   of those whose anxious spirits burn
   with strong desires for thy return!
   With such I hasten to the place
   where God my Savior shows his face,
   and gladly take my station there,
   and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
3. Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
   thy wings shall my petition bear
   to him whose truth and faithfulness
   engage the waiting soul to bless.
   And since he bids me seek his face,
   believe his word, and trust his grace,
   I’ll cast on him my every care,
   and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
