153. WITH SIGNS FOLLOWING

1. When first the risen Lord of pow’r

His chosen ones sent forth,

A charge he gave, that solemn hour;

To preach his saving worth.

“Go ye,” said He, “to all mankind;

Declare My Word, and ye shall find:

These signs shall surely follow them

Who on My Name believe.”

2. “No demons shall before them stand,

No poison do them harm;

Nor subtle serpent in their hand

Cause pain or dread alarm.”

For Satan’s kingdom He o’ercame,

To give His people right to claim:

“These signs shall surely follow them

Who on My Name believe.”

3. “They shall with other tongues declare

The wonders of their God:

The sick beneath their hands, by prayer,

Shall rise, to prove My Word,”

So let it be! Firm as His Throne

Stands this clear promise to His own:

“These signs shall surely follow them

Who on My Name believe.”

4. Crowned with the flame of Pentecost,

A faithful, fearless band

Proclaimed his Name: a ransomed host

Arose from every land.

The Lord worked with them from on High,

His proven Word could none deny:

“These signs shall surely follow them

Who on My Name believe.”

5. No word of Thine is void of power;

No promise, Lord, is vain.

Be this a Pentecostal hour –

Confirm Thy Word again!

Nor can’st Thou fail! Thou art the same

As when of old Thou did’st proclaim:

“These signs shall surely follow them

Who on My Name believe.”

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
