The Quiet Heart ~
The quiet heart,
doesn’t fret
over its worries
it dosen’t sweat.
It knows to be,
composed and collected
it knows its strength
to God is connected.
The quiet heart,
doesn’t stew
over its cares
it doesn’t spew.
It knows to trust,
to be clam and still
it knows its life
is in God’s will.
The quiet heart,
doesn’t panic
over life’s woes
it’s not frantic!
~~~~~~~~
For thus saith the Lord God,
the Holy One of Israel;
In returning and rest shall
ye be saved; in quietness and
in confidence shall be your
strength:

Oh, To Know The Power ~
Oh, to know the power,
that Jesus’ death brings
is to have the saving faith
to trust Him for all things.
For in His resurrection,
we’re eternally transformed
and by the power of His Spirit
we are forever conformed.
Oh, to know the power,
that Jesus’ life brought
is to know your sins
on the cross He bought.
For in His death springs,
new birth, new purpose
for your very soul
He endured to purchase.
Oh, to know the power,
Jesus brings to everyone
is to know being saved . . .
a new life has just begun!
~~~~~~
That I may know him,
and the power of his
resurrection, and the
fellowship of his sufferings,
being made conformable
unto his death.

I Can Do Zip ~
I can do nothing,
zip, nada, nil . . .
for I alone don’t have
the will or skill.
But, with God,
I know I can do
what’s impossible
when His strength I pursue.
I can do nothing,
zero, zilch, naught . . .
for I alone don’t have
the heart or thought.
But, with God,
what is unthinkable
with His mighty power
is accomplishable.
I can do nothing,
but, God can do it all . . .
for He has the power
on which for me to call!
~~~~~~
I can do all things through
Christ which strengtheneth me.

God Does the Unfeasible ~
God does the impossible,
when He desires, when He wants to
He can do the unfeasible
in the lives of me and you.
He can change the stoniest heart,
turn it into one of flesh
reshape it until with His own
the two of them begin to mesh.
God does the unthinkable,
when He needs, when He deems
He can do the improbable
with His mercy that redeems.
He can take the most blinded,
and give them eyes to believe
the love and grace of His Son
so salvation they’ll receive.
God does the impossible,
when He opts, when He decides
He can do the unachievable
in those who in Him abide!
~~~~~~~
For with God
nothing shall be
impossible.
Ah Lord God! behold,
thou hast made the heaven
and the earth by thy great
power and stretched out arm,
and there is nothing too
hard for thee:

Strength In Weakness ~
Weakness allows in us,
Jesus’ strength to flow
it makes us meek
so His power we’ll know.
It makes us proclaim,
when I’m weak I’m strong
it makes our faith firm
when trials come along.
Weakness allows in us,
Jesus’ grace to be
sufficient each day
for everything we need.
It helps us to endure,
the tests and the trials
for His grace is the key
to our spiritual vitals.
Our weakness keeps,
Jesus’ grace moving . . .
so His strength in us
can continue improving!
~~~~~~~
And he said unto me,
My grace is sufficient for thee:
for my strength is made perfect
in weakness. Most gladly therefore
will I rather glory in my infirmities,
that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Feeling Sluggish~
Feeling sluggish,
in a slump . . .
can’t seem to get
over that hump?
Then turn to Jesus,
so He can restore
your joy and strength
just as before.
Feeling blah,
a little lackluster
daily fortitude
you can’t muster?
Then take a hold,
of God’s mighty hand
so He can help you
rise up and stand.
Feeling dull,
lost your sharpness
then God’s power . . .
you’ll need to harness!
~~~~~~
Finally, my brethren,
be strong in the Lord,
and in the power of his might.
Humble yourselves therefore
under the mighty hand of God,
that he may exalt you in due time:

I Have God’s Power ~
I have God’s power,
it’s right inside of me
it blesses me with faith
for things I can’t see.
It dissipates the doubt,
evaporates the fear
it allows me to believe
my God is always near.
I have God’s power,
He gave it to me the day
when to His Son . . .
I gave my heart away.
It lifted the darkness,
revealing His True Light
giving me the ability
to trust in His holy might.
I have God’s power,
to believe without seeing
it fills me with such hope
tis why it’s so freeing!
~~~~~~
And what is the exceeding
greatness of his power to
us-ward who believe,
according to the working
of his mighty power

Soar~
Eagles wings,
oh, how they soar
above the world’s
menacing roar.
Glide in faith,
on the air of trust
grows not weary
against the thrust.
Eagles wings,
strong and sure
torrid weather
they do endure.
Fainting not,
upon resistance
fly on hope
to go the distance.
Eagles wings,
mount and rise
above the fear . . .
before their eyes!
~~~~~~
But they that wait
upon the Lord shall
renew their strength;
they shall mount up
with wings as eagles;
they shall run,
and not be weary;
and they shall walk,
and not faint.

God Is Mightier ~
God is mightier than the battle,
you are facing right now . . .
He’s greater than your struggle
your defeat He won’t allow.
For His peace will overrule,
all your inner conflict
and His mercy will surpass
the hurt life can inflict.
God is stronger than the burden,
that is weighing you down
He’s more powerful than the storm
that’s swirling all around.
His balm is ever soothing,
it will heal all of your pain
His touch is life transforming
when in His hands you remain.
God is mightier than the battle,
that today you have to face
His sufficiency is copious
for abundant is His grace!

“The Lord on high is mightier
than the noise of many waters,
yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.”

God’s Power Generator ~
I’ve got God’s power,
it makes me resilient
it’s energizing the faith
I need to be persistent.
It’s galvanizing,
supplying inside of me
the fuel to believe
in what I can’t see.
I’ve got God’s strength,
it’s alive and well
in my heart it grows
in my soul it swells.
It’s electrifying,
it’s mighty and strong
it sparks me to hope
in God all my life long.
I’ve got God’s power,
in me it generates
my faith and trust
it daily regulates!
~~~~~~~
Finally, my brethren,
be strong in the Lord,
and in the power of his might.

God, My Refuge ~
God is my refuge,
a retreat for my soul
where life’s pressures
cannot take their toll.
His wings protect me,
a shelter they provide
whenever I am weary
a perfect place to hide.
God is my refuge,
a harbor to where I flee
whenever I’m tossed
upon life’s stormy sea.
When I need strength,
for the troubles I get in
I just turn to the Lord
my refuge from within.
God is my refuge,
a stronghold He is to me
an always present help . . .
I’ve found Him to be!
~~~~~~~~~~
“God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.”
“Whoever dwells in the shelter
of the Most High will rest in
the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD,
‘He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.’”

Mountain Moving ~
God gave me this mountain,
and told me to believe . . .
His strength and might
from Him I would receive.
So, I gathered up my faith,
though I admit it was small
compared to this mountain
that seemed seven-miles tall.
I looked at the obstacles,
I knew were in my way
and then I paraphrased
what Jesus had to say . . .
If you do not doubt,
you can save a lot of time
and pick that mountain up
instead of making the climb.
So, I mustered up the power,
that Jesus left for me . . .
picked that mountain up
and now I’m burden free!
~~~~~
“And Jesus said unto them,
Because of your unbelief:
for verily I say unto you,
If ye have faith as a
grain of mustard seed,
ye shall say unto this mountain,
Remove hence to yonder place;
and it shall remove;
and nothing shall be
impossible unto you.”

Tender-Loving Care ~
When your pain,
is too much to bear
and you need some
tender-loving care.
Know that God,
is there for you
and will your pain
ease and soothe.
When you’re beat,
and broken down
and it’s too hard
to move around.
Know that God,
will strengthen you
and your weariness
He will lessen too.
When you can’t speak,
or open up your eyes
know that God still can . . .
hear and see your cries!

“Thou holdest mine eyes waking:
I am so troubled that I cannot speak.”

The Power Of God ~
The power of God,
is inside of you
there isn’t anything
that you cannot do.
But, you must believe,
He will give the might
for every battle
that you have to fight.
The power of God,
is in His Son
there is enough
for everyone.
But, you must have faith,
His Spirit is in you
if the impossible
you really want to do.
The power of God,
is available to all
if on His strength
we remember to call!
~~~~~~
“Finally, my brethren,
be strong in the Lord,
and in the power of his might.”

Thing’s I Can’t Handle ~
I’ve heard people simply say,
God will not give me
anything I can’t handle . . .
but, with them I don’t agree.
For, I’ve looked in my Bible,
and saw how I’d be tested
once my life in Jesus . . .
became fully invested.
He said I’d face tribulation,
that I would be persecuted
and for my faith in Him
I could even be executed.
He said I’d have trials,
many worries and cares
that my very own cross
daily I’d have to bear.
So, when people tell me this,
I look right into their eyes . . .
and tell them I can’t handle things
unless His strength I excise!

through Christ
which strengtheneth me.”

I’ve Not The Power ~
In myself,
I haven’t the power
to outrun satan
when he’s out to devour.
So, my spiritual sneakers,
I am putting on . . .
to insure this race
can be victoriously won.
I’ll pull up my laces,
God’s Word will be the knot
so to satan’s snares
off guard, I’ll not be caught.
With my Bible verses,
I’ll plan each of my steps
so I can remain diligent
in following the concepts.
In myself,
I haven’t the power
but, with God’s strength
satan, I will overpower!
~~~~~~~
“Be sober, be vigilant;
because your adversary
the devil, as a roaring lion,
walketh about, seeking
whom he may devour:”
“I press toward the mark
for the prize of the high
calling of God in Christ Jesus.”
I will run the way
of thy commandments,
when thou shalt
enlarge my heart.”

In His Strength ~
When troubles waters,
start to churn and swirl
before my faith . . .
can begin to spiral.
To my Lord,
I take my distress
and with His strength
I am blessed.
When my worries,
start to push and pull
before my faith . . .
becomes void and null.
To my Lord,
I take my praise
and in His strength
I am not fazed.
When troubled waters,
are all I can see . . .
I pray to my Lord
to strengthen me!

“I can do all things
through Christ
which strengtheneth me.”

God Makes Things Happen ~
God makes things happen,
in His time, at His will
He can make the wind’s gust
or He can cause them to still.
He can alter the course,
of the season’s of the year
He can make them painless
or cause in them great fear.
God, makes things happen,
nothing is a coincidence
everything He does . . .
is of great significance.
He makes kingdoms rise,
He causes them to tumble
He can withdrawn His wisdom
or give it to the humble.
God, makes things happen,
in His time, at His will
there is no one else who has
His power, or His skill!
~~~~~
“Daniel answered and said,
Blessed be the name of God
for ever and ever:
for wisdom and might are his:
And he changeth the times
and the seasons: he removeth kings,
and setteth up kings: he giveth
wisdom unto the wise,
and knowledge to them
that know understanding:”

Without The Lord’s Strength ~
Without the Lord’s strength,
like ice I would melt
from the frigid hand
in life, I’ve been dealt.
Without the Lord’s strength,
like the sand I would shift
if not for His grace
I’d be in a faithless drift.
Without the Lord’s strength,
like a towel I would fold
if not for His love
I’d be left out in the cold.
Without the Lord’s strength,
like a box I would cave
if not for His power
I’d still be to sin a slave.
Without the Lord’s strength,
like a flower I would fade
if not for His mercy
I’d be alone and afraid.
Without the Lord’s strength,
like a tree I would fall
if not for His forgiveness
I’d be nothing at all.
Without the Lord’s strength,
mercy, power, grace and love
I would be lost . . .
like a hand, missing a glove!
~~~~~~
“He giveth power to the faint;
and to them that have no might
he increaseth strength.”

Like An Eagle ~
Renewed like an eagle,
my strength restored
the closer I sweep in
to Jesus, my Lord.
He gives me courage,
to go the distance
gives me His strength
when I meet resistance.
Just like an eagle,
the clouds I climb above
rising over my troubles
on the strength of His love.
I have the fortitude,
to look into the eye
of each raging storm
that passes me by.
He renews my faith,
my trust He restores
until the day like an eagle
into heaven I soar!
~~~~~~~~~
“But they that wait
upon the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with
wings as eagles;
they shall run,
and not be weary;
and they shall walk,
and not faint.”

God Never Gets Weary ~
Are you feeling fatigued,
by your weariness
are you exhausted
and feeling listless?
Then wait on the Lord,
your energy He’ll renew
for He never gets tired
of strengthening you.
Do you need recharging,
a shot of endurance
do you need fortitude
some extra assurance?
Then wait on the Lord,
faint He does not
He never gets worn-out
when His power is sought
Are you growing weary,
is your faith getting slack?
Then wait on the Lord . . .
for the strength you lack!
~~~~~
“Even the youths shall faint
and be weary, and the young
men shall utterly fall:
But they that wait upon
the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with
wings as eagles;
they shall run,
and not be weary;
and they shall walk,
and not faint.”

God Can’t Be Contained ~
God cannot be boxed-in,
He can’t be contained
you cannot control Him
His power can’t be restrained.
God cannot be confined,
He can’t be enclosed
you cannot out-wit Him
His will can’t be opposed.
God cannot be hedged-in,
He can’t be obstructed
you cannot thwart Him
His Word can’t be corrupted.
God cannot be restricted,
He can’t be curtailed
you cannot halt Him
His plans can’t be derailed.
God cannot be confined,
His power can’t be blocked
His judgements cannot . . .
nor will they be stopped!

Omnipotent ~
God is omnipotent,
He is mightily skillful
He does what He wills
He is effectively powerful.
God is more than able,
to do what is impossible
whenever He speaks
He makes all things possible.
God with stretched out arm,
created all living-things
the heavens and the earth
their kingdoms and their kings.
There is not anything,
that God’s will cannot do
even satan and his army
His mightiness can subdue.
God is omnipotent,
He gave to us the power
to overcome the world . . .
right up to the final hour!

and said unto them,
With men this is impossible;

The Captain of Our Salvation ~

to be Spirit lead.
The Captain of our Salvation,

a refuge and a fortress
whenever we are shaken.
He is our stronghold,
defends on our behalf
guides and protects us
with His rod and staff.
The Captain of our Salvation,
knows the battle we’re in
and He promises to give us
the faith and trust to win!

for whom are all things,
and by whom are all things,
in bringing many sons
unto glory, to make the
captain of their salvation
perfect through sufferings.”

The Reason for My Hope
I believe in God,
in all of His glorious creation
I believe He made the heavens
and the earth's foundation.I believe that man,
came from but dust
I believe it's God's image
He puts into all of us.I believe that Satan,
is the cause for our fallen state
I believe it's still his lies
he uses on us to trap and bait.I believe that man's heart,
has always been cold and callous
I believe it's full of deceit
filled with ungodly malice.I believe in Jesus,
God's only begotten Son
I believe He died and rose again
for the sins of everyone.I believe in redemption,
from our wicked, evil ways
I believe it's the blood of the Lamb
that washes our sins away.I believe in God's love,
I believe in His grace
I believe one day
God's judgement all will face.I believe in Heaven,
I also believe in hell . . .
I believe for eternity it's where
the unsaved will dwell.I believe in the hope,
Jesus imparts in me
I believe all can be saved
if these truth they'd just see!~~~~~~~~~~~~
