Our God Is Able To Deliver Thee ~ hymn

Something we all need to hear and remember – “Our God is able to deliver thee.” It doesn’t matter where or what you are deep in with, God is able. Focus on Him and the fact that He is by your side. And sing away this great reminder that God is able.

1. ’Tis the grandest theme through the ages rung;
   ’Tis the grandest theme for a mortal tongue;
   ’Tis the grandest theme that the world e’er sung,
   “Our God is able to deliver thee.”
   • Refrain:
     He is able to deliver thee,
     He is able to deliver thee;
     Though by sin oppressed, go to Him for rest;
     “Our God is able to deliver thee.”
2. ’Tis the grandest theme in the earth or main;
   ’Tis the grandest theme for a mortal strain;
   ’Tis the grandest theme, tell the world again,
   “Our God is able to deliver thee.”
3. ’Tis the grandest theme, let the tidings roll,
   To the guilty heart, to the sinful soul;
   Look to God in faith, He will make thee whole,
   “Our God is able to deliver thee.”
   (music and lyrics: William A Ogden 1841-1897)

Need another reminder that God will take you through whatever is going on in your life? Take a look at what Paul wrote in II Corinthians 1:3-11.

[2Co 1:3-11 NKJV] 3 Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ. 6 Now if we are afflicted, [it is] for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, [it is] for your consolation and salvation. 7 And our hope for you [is] steadfast, because we know that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also [you will partake] of the consolation. 8 For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of our trouble which came to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life. 9 Yes, we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves but in God who raises the dead, 10 who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver us; in whom we trust that He will still deliver [us], 11 you also helping together in prayer for us, that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the gift [granted] to us through many.

Bobby Wheat preached on these scriptures this morning and I found it greatly encouraging. You can find that sermon on our church’s Facebook page to listen to or on our website, along with others.

As you face each day, remember, our God is able to deliver.
