Hear the Sweet Voices of Our Children at JCH

 

We invite you watch this brief video clip. You’ll hear the sweet voices of our five smallest children at Jireh Children’s Home and meet their wonderful “mama” (Betty). They are joyfully reciting scripture, something we give great emphasis to, as we believe that God’s Word can truly transform lives.

“God’s Word is quick and powerful, sharper than a two-edged sword.” 

Hebrews 4:12

We’d love to offer these five verses to encourage your heart during this global pandemic. You might even memorize them as joyfully as these little ones at the Jireh Children’s Home! It is our sincere prayer that these verses will give you peace during this time of uncertainty, for indeed, God is our peace and our safety.

  1. “Have I not commanded you?  Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

  2. “When I am afraid, I will trust in you.  In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid.  What can mortal man do to me?”  Psalm 56:3-4

  3. “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.  I do not give to you as the world gives.  Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”  John 14:27

  4. “Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”  Philippians 3:13b-14

  5. “Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him . . .” Deuteronomy 30:19b
