Bible Verse Open Heavens Daily Devotional October 13, 2024
1 For as touching the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you:
2 For I know the forwardness of your mind, for which I boast of you to them of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath provoked very many.
3 Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready:
4 Lest haply if they of Macedonia come with me, and find you unprepared, we (that we say not, ye) should be ashamed in this same confident boasting.
5 Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your bounty, whereof ye had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not as of covetousness.
6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
2 Corinthians 9:1-7

Hymn Open Heavens Daily Devotional October 13, 2024
1. I have found a friend in Jesus, He’s everything to me
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul
The lily of the valley and in Him alone I see
All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole
In sorrow He’s my comfort, in trouble He’s my stay
He tells me every care on Him to roll
He’s the lily of the valley, He’s the bright and morning star
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul
2. He all my grief has taken and all my sorrows borne
In temptation, He’s my strong and mighty tower
I have all for Him forsaken and all my idols torn
From my heart and now I know He’ll keep me by His power
Though all the world forsake me and old Satan he tempts me sore
Through Jesus I shall safely reach that goal
He’s the lily of the valley, He’s the bright and morning star
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul
3. He will never never leave me nor yet forsake me here
While I live by faith and do His blessed will
It’s a wall of fire about me, but I’ve nothing now to fear
With His manna He my hungry soul is gonna fill
Then I’ll go sweeping up to Glory to see His blessed face
Where rivers of delight shall ever roll
He’s the lily of the valley, He’s the bright and morning star
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul
Bible In One Year: Mark 4-5
