2 Peter 3:9

God’s Promises Galore ~

Weaved throughout the whole Bible,
are God’s promises galore
assurances guaranteed . . .
for us to read and explore.

There are promises of hope,
for today and the future
each one an eternal pledge
to give our faith a booster.

There are promises of new life,
where not one should perish
for every soul to Him . . .
is one He’ll always cherish.

There is the promise of comfort,
the wiping away of our tears
the beginning of eternal peace
where we will have no more fears.

There are promises to supply us,
with our earthly wants and needs
to deliver us from the suffering
of our sinful acts and deeds.

Weaved throughout the Bible,
are promises to cling to . . .
for the good work God has started
He guarantees to see it through!

Romans 4:21

“And being fully persuaded that,
what he had promised,
he was able also to perform.”

2 Peter 3:9

“The Lord is not slack concerning
his promise, as some men count
slackness; but is longsuffering to
us-ward, not willing that any
should perish, but that all should
come to repentance.”

Philippians 1.6

Being confident of this very thing,
that he which hath begun a good
work in you will perform it until
the day of Jesus Christ

Hebrews 3:6

What Compels Me ~

I’m not going anywhere,
I can’t be plucked away
from what compels me
to follow the Gospel Way.

Nothing is going to cause me,
from the Truth to wander
my faith in my Savior . . .
away I’ll never squander.

I’m never going to give up,
nor will I ever give in
for I am determined
the crown of life I will win.

I will not ever budge,
not one inch will I concede
for my love for Jesus . . .
nothing ever could impede.

I cannot and will not be moved,
not even one single inch . . .
for to the righteous hand of God
my life is firmly clinched!

~~~~~~~~

Psalm 16:8

I have set the Lord always
before me: because he is
at my right hand,
I shall not be moved.

Luke 10:19

Flexing Your Faith Muscle ~

There is no temptation,
no trap, no snare, no lure
that satan won’t use on you
so your soul he can secure.

He will throw out anything,
that he thinks will entice you
and he knows before hand
just what He has to do.

But, God has promised us,
whenever we are tempted
our prayers for help . . .
will be by Him intercepted.

For there’s is no enticement,
that’s not common to all of man
God knows what we can bear
and He has for us an exit plan.

So, next time satan tempts you,
and he tries to confuse or perplex
just rely on the Lord’s strength
then let your faith muscle flex!

~~~~~~~~~~

1 Corinthians 10:13

“There hath no temptation taken you but
such as is common to man: but God is
faithful, who will not suffer you to be
tempted above that ye are able; but will
with the temptation also make a way
to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”

Philippians 4:13

I can do all things
through Christ which
strengtheneth me.

Psalm 119:105

A Place Called Unknown ~

I am in this place,
they call it the unknown
but, I am convinced . . .
I’m not in it all alone.

For, I know that Jesus,
is always close and near
and the way out of it
to me He will make clear.

It’s a place of uncertainty,
of what may lie ahead
a place where I’ll need to be
by the Holy Spirit lead.

For, my own understanding,
I can’t depend on or rely
if His inspired directions
I am going to apply.

I’m in this unknown place,
for how long I don’t know
but I trust the way out . . .
to me Jesus will show!

~~~~~~~~

Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord
with all thine heart;
and lean not unto
thine own understanding.

In all thy ways
acknowledge him,
and he shall direct thy paths.

John 7:37

Dry Seasons ~

Dry seasons . . .
times of spiritual drought
times of agonizing doubt

times to reflect from within
times to confess known sin

times God’s voice we can’t hear
times of significant fear

times where we learn and grow
times for God’s mercy to show

times of weakness not strength
times we keep God at arm’s length

times to meditate and pray
times to hear what He’s to say

times of desperation and lack
times to turn to God back

Dry seasons . . .
times of spiritual growing
times for more of God knowing!

Psalm 107:9

“For he satisfieth
the longing soul,
and filleth
the hungry soul
with goodness.”
