The World’s Wilderness ~

The world is a wilderness,
with strange and eerie places
and I could not travel in it . . .
without Jesus and His graces.

I know I would get lost,
in the darkness in front of me
for, without His saving light
the wickedness I’d not see.

The world is a wilderness,
with dark and scary pathways
and I would stumble on them
if Jesus wasn’t with me always.

For, I would not be able to see,
the clear and present danger
of following after those . . .
who were to Him a stranger.

The world is a wilderness,
I need to navigate through
tis why I keep my Shepherd
and His flock in my view!

~~~~~~~~~~

Psalm 78:52

“But made his own people
to go forth like sheep,
and guided them in the
wilderness like a flock.”

Sin is Still Sin ~

Oh, my worldly friends,
don’t you be deceived
the meaning of sin
is often misconceived.

Sin is still sin,
no matter what some may say
changes to the Word of God
won’t stand up on judgment day.

Sin is still dark and evil,
it’s full of greed and pride
don’t you believe for a minute
sin from God you can hide.

Sin is still vile and wicked,
it’s coveting and lusting
and in the eyes of God  . . .
all of it to Him is disgusting.

Repentance is,
what you need to do
so Jesus from your sin
can forgive and free you.

So, my worldly friends,
repent and sin no more
lest with satan your soul . . .
will till the end, be at war!

~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 4:17

“From that time
Jesus began to preach,
and to say,
Repent:
for the kingdom
of heaven is at hand.”

I Trust Thee Lord ~

Forever Lord,
I will trust Thee
no matter what
happens to me.

I will trust Thee,
when its stormy
I will trust Thee
when its balmy.

I will trust Thee,
when its serene
I will trust Thee
for the unseen.

I will trust Thee,
when its peaceful
I will trust Thee
when facing evil.

I will trust Thee,
when I’m weak
I will trust Thee
when all is bleak.

I will trust Thee,
with my life
I will trust Thee
through the strife

I will trust Thee,
like no other
I will trust Thee
more than my brother.

I will trust Thee,
when under attack
I will trust Thee
for all I lack.

I will Trust Thee,
when I’m ill
I will trust Thee
to be still.

Forever Lord,
I will trust Thee
for Your strength
lives in me!

God Sees All ~

God sees everything,
there’s nothing hidden
He sees every person
who is sin driven.

He sees the wicked,
the trouble they cause
He sees from boasting
they never take a pause.

He sees the ungodly,
set up their snare
He sees their hatred
erupt and flare.

He sees the sinful,
devise evil demands
He sees they follow
satan’s commands.

God sees the unrighteous,
their evil, dark ways
He sees their future . . .
come judgment day!

~~~~~~~

Psalm 10:11-14

” He hath said in his heart,
God hath forgotten:
he hideth his face;
he will never see it.

Arise, O Lord; O God,
lift up thine hand:
forget not the humble.

Wherefore doth the wicked
contemn God? he hath said
in his heart, Thou wilt
not require it.

Thou hast seen it; for thou
beholdest mischief and spite,
to requite it with thy hand:
the poor committeth himself
unto thee; thou art the
helper of the fatherless.”

Prayer for the Persecuted ~

Lord today I pray,
for Your healing hand
to reach across each sea
to stretch over every land.

I pray for each person,
who knows and loves Thee
for Your strength and courage
as their homelands they flee.

I pray for the persecuted,
for those dying each day
just because they believe
in the Life, Truth and Way.

I pray for the oppressed.
for the ones being abused
for those who are tormented
those being falsely accused.

I pray for all who suffer,
in the enemy’s evil hand
I pray for Your healing touch
over each downtrodden land.

Lord today I pray,
for mankind every where
for You to give them peace
in the midst of their despair!

“Remember them that are in bonds,
as bound with them; and them which
suffer adversity, as being yourselves

Perfect Instructions ~

God’s Word teaches me,
with perfect instructions
it leads me away . . .
from evil destructions.

His Word is my light,
so in the darkness I can see
the sinfulness and wickedness
everyday surrounding me.

God’s Word is the truth,
there are no if’s or but’s
I know to follow it . . .
there can be no short cuts.

His Word is His promise,
of things yet to be
it shows me how faith
is more than what I see.

God’s Word teaches me,
the right way to go
it holds everything . . .
I’ll ever need to know.

I know I need to hear,
His Word everyday
but unless I am a doer
I’m bound to go astray!

~~~~~~~~~

James 1:22

“But be ye doers of the word,
and not hearers only,
deceiving your own selves.”

I Don’t Want to See ~

Lord, though my eyes can see,
at times I wish I were blind
so I didn’t have to watch . . .
the destruction of mankind.

I don’t want to be an observer,
to the cruel and evil things
happening everyday in the world
nor the destruction it brings.

I don’t want to be an onlooker,
to those who are oppressed
nor be a bystander while others
freedoms are being suppressed.

I don’t want to be a viewer,
to the gory executions
nor be an armchair eye-witness
to the hateful persecutions.

Lord, I thank you for my sight,
but, all I really want to  see . . .
is the Truth, Life and Way
to come and set the world free!

~~~~~~~~~~

John 14:6

“Jesus saith unto him,
I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

Unborn Sacrifices ~

On the altar of lust,
built upon immorality
sacrificing unborn babies
has become our new reality.

To the world, they’re just tissue,
to God, His very own creation
yet, we terminate their lives . . .
in the name of legalized abortion.

One by one we disregard,
their tiny body parts . . .
sell them to those interested
in livers, kidneys and hearts.

Whatever the cost or profit,
these tiny body parts bring in
it will not be worth the price . . .
when God judges this murderous sin.

If Planned Parenthood could sell a soul,
I believe they would really try to
but, God they can’t barter with . . .
what from the start belonged to You.

Oh, Father please forgive them,
for they do know ~ what they do . . .
while over red wine and a salad
on their evil plans, they sip and chew!

~~~~~~~~~~~

Psalm 106:35-38

” But were mingled among the heathen,
and learned their works.

And they served their idols:
which were a snare unto them.

Yea, they sacrificed their
sons and their daughters unto devils,

And shed innocent blood,
even the blood of their sons
and of their daughters,
whom they sacrificed unto
the idols of Canaan: and the
land was polluted with blood.”

These Evil Days ~

In this world today,
evilness is all around . . .
and we must be sure
in the Gospel we’re sound.

We must use the time,
to find what is God’s will
we need to learn to wait
to trust and be still.

We need to understand,
God’s purposes and plans
we must choose to leave
everything, in His hands.

We need to ask God,
for His help in all things
we must let the Spirit lead
no matter, what life brings.

In this world today,
evilness surrounds us
we must redeem the time
with Godly wisdom and trust!

~~~~~~~~~

Ephesians 5:16-17

” Redeeming the time,
because the days are evil.
  Wherefore be ye not unwise,
  but understanding
what the will of the Lord is.”
