52
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the
trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and
we shall be changed.
53
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must
put on immortality.
54
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this
mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass
the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O
death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
56
The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord
Jesus Christ.
58
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmoveable, always
abounding in the work of The Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your
labor is not in vain in The Lord.
II
Corinthians 1:3,4 KJV

Blessed be God, even The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father
Of Mercies, and The God Of All comfort;

Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to
comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we
ourselves are comforted of God.
I
Thessalonians 4:13-18 NLT
13
And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will
happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like
people who have no hope.
14
For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to Life again, we
also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with Him
the believers who have died.
15
We tell you this directly from The Lord: We who are still living when
The Lord returns will not meet Him ahead of those who have died.
16
For The Lord Himself will come down from heaven with a commanding
shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of
God. First, the believers who have died will rise from their graves.
17
Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the
earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet The Lord in the air.
Then we will be with The Lord forever.
18
So encourage each other with these words.
II
Thessalonians 2:16,17 KJV
16
Now our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and God, even our Father, which
hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good
hope through grace,
17
Comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good word and work.
I
Peter 5:6,7 KJV
6
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may
exalt you in due time:
7
Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you.
Revelation
14:13 KJV
And
I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the
dead which die in The Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith The Spirit,
that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them.
Revelation
21:4 KJV
And
God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no
more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any
more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Nearer,
My God, To Thee
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.
Refrain:
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone;
Yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God, to Thee.
There let the way appear, steps unto Heav’n;
All that Thou sendest me, in mercy giv’n;
Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee.
Then, with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise;
So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee.
Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.
There in my Father’s home, safe and at rest,
There in my Savior’s love, perfectly blest;
Age after age to be nearer, my God, to Thee.
Author: Sarah F. Adams, v. 6 by Edward H. Bickersteth, Jr.

Prayer:
Psalm
46:1-11 KJV
1
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2
Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though
the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3
Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains
shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
4
There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of
God, the holy place of the tabernacles of The Most High.
5
God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help
her, and that right early.
6
The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: He uttered His voice, the
earth melted.
7
The Lord Of Hosts is with us; The God Of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
8
Come, behold the works of The Lord, what desolations He hath made in
the earth.
9 He
maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; He breaketh the bow,
and cutteth the spear in sunder; He burneth the chariot in the fire.
10
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the
heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
11
The Lord Of Hosts is with us; The God Of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
