Hanging On By A Thread ~
Is your faith hanging,
on by a thin thread . . .
are your thoughts filled
with fear and dread?
Then you need to take,
a hold of your hope
and let the Word of God
give you the skills to cope.
Is your trust dangling,
right in front of you
are you warn out and down
by all that you do?
Then you need to take,
a hold of the slack
and let the Word of God
give your strength back.
Is your faith slacking,
is you trust aground
well turn to God’s Word
and your hope will rebound!
~~~~~~~~
My soul cleaveth
unto the dust:
quicken thou me
according to thy word.

Life On The Battlefield ~
Life on the battlefield,
is no easy task . . .
for our daily strength
God we need to ask.
His Word will equip us,
so we can have victory
otherwise our lives
will be full of misery.
For our enemy is evil,
his tactics even worse
they are diabolical
corrupt and perverse.
We’ll need to be ready,
to fight the wickedness
as our enemy is known
for his ruthlessness.
Life in the faithful fight,
is no easy one . . .
but with the power of God
it’s one that will be won!
~~~~~~~~
For thou hast girded me
with strength unto the battle:
thou hast subdued under me
those that rose up against me.
For we wrestle not against
flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness
of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places.

What A Wonderful God ~
I see God in the sky,
in the light of the moon
I see Him in the stars
through the universe strewn
and I think to my self . . .
what a wonderful God!
I see God in the hills,
in the valley below
I see Him in the streams
throughout the earth flow
and I think to my self. . . .
what a skillful God!
I see God in the ocean,
in the waves on the shore
I see Him as they crash
with a thunderous roar .
and I think to my self . . .
what a powerful God!
I see God in the trees,
the flowers that bloom
I see Him as the robin
its nestling’s groom
and I think to my self . . .
what a beautiful God!
I see God in the clouds,
in the storms rolling by
I see Him in the lighting
as it brightens up the sky
and I think to my self . . .
what a masterful God!
I see God’s handiwork,
it is all around me . . .
oh, how I can hardly wait
to see what I cannot see
and I think to my self . . .
what a wonderful God!
~~~~~~~~
When I consider thy heavens,
the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which thou hast ordained;
The heavens declare
the glory of God;
and the firmament
sheweth his handywork.

When God Sends Trials ~
When God sends us,
trials along our way
on our knees we need
to get down and pray.
For we will need,
a lot of His strength
so to keep our fear
at arm’s length.
When God delivers,
what to us is a blow
to the throne of grace
we need to at once go.
For we need not panic,
or think that it’s odd
for these flaming testings
to come from God.
When God sends us,
trials fiery and blazing
just think about the joy
for you that is awaiting!
~~~~~~~~~~
Beloved, think it not strange
concerning the fiery trial
which is to try you, as though
some strange thing happened
unto you:
But rejoice, inasmuch
as ye are partakers of
Christ’s sufferings;
that, when his glory
shall be revealed,
ye may be glad also
with exceeding joy.

God, My Strength ~
God, my Strength,
my Power, my Might
You make me fit . . .
for the battles I fight.
Through all the storms,
that have come my way
You give me the courage
to face them each day.
God, my Muscle,
my Vitality, my Vigor
You inspire me to be
for You a crown winner.
When spiritual battles,
I have to daily face
You give me resilience
to run the faithful race.
God, my Strength,
my Rock, my Song
thought I am weak . . .
You make me strong!
~~~~~~~~~~
Have not I commanded thee?
Be strong and of a good courage;
be not afraid, neither be thou
dismayed: for the Lord thy God
is with thee whithersoever
thou goest.
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.

The Crack of Dawn ~
I wake up at dawn,
along with the dew
and rise up my Lord
to get close to You.
My morning I start,
with You in prayer
so to be ready
to give You my care.
Just like a bird early,
who gets the worm
I study Your Word
to keep my faith firm.
I dress in my armor,
make sure it’s on tight
I pray each verse I read
fills me Your might.
Each morning I awake,
with the crack of dawn
so my soul to You Lord
daily may be drawn!
~~~~~~~~~
“My voice shalt thou hear
in the morning, O Lord;
in the morning will I
direct my prayer unto thee,
and will look up.”

Written On My Heart ~
Oh Lord, may Your Word,
be written on my heart
so that from Your ways
I will not ever depart.
Oh Lord, may Your Word,
in my soul be embedded
so to the narrow gate
I’ll always be headed.
Oh, Lord may Your Word,
be my constant guide
so that with You in heaven
one day I will abide.
Oh Lord, may Your Word,
be my only light source
so I may be filled . . .
with Your mighty force.
Oh Lord, may Your Word,
be imprinted on my mind
so if I should ever stray
the way back to You I’ll find!

Faith Fortified ~
Lord, let me obtain,
faith that is greater
give to me the kind
not able to waiver.
Let it be strong,
mighty and firm
so when it’s tested
I will not squirm.
Lord, let me acquire,
faith, mountain moving
take this mustard seed
and keep it growing.
Let it take root,
deep in my soul
so when it’s tried
I will not fold.
Lord, may my faith,
be in You fortified
so when tested or tried
I’ll not be horrified!

unto the Lord,
Increase our faith.”

God of All Grace ~
God of all grace,
mercy and favor
Father of Jesus
my Lord, my Savior.
Strengthen me,
with Your power
perfect my faith
in this dark hour.
God of all grace,
peace and calm
slather on me
Your healing balm.
Comfort me,
in this storm
a miracle I need
for You to perform.
God of all grace,
mercy and favor
let not my trust
in You ever waiver!

“But the God of all grace,
who hath called us unto his
eternal glory by Christ Jesus,
after that ye have suffered
a while, make you perfect,
stablish, strengthen,
settle you.”

A Sound Defeat ~
The battle with the enemy
will be easy to beat . . .
if you put your trust in God
He will deliver a sound defeat.
But, first you must go to Him,
and give Him your fight
then He will lead you onward
in His power, with His might.
As your battle continues on,
He’ll be your strength and Rock
protecting your front and back
until the enemy starts to balk.
He will provide for you a refuge,
a fortress and a safe place
He will defend and deliver you
put a hedge around your base.
The battle with the enemy,
will be easier to beat . . .
if you let your Lord and Savior
lead you to a sound defeat!
~~~~~~~~
2 Samuel 22:2-3
King James Version
“And he said, The Lord is my rock,
and my fortress, and my deliverer;
The God of my rock; in him will I trust:
he is my shield, the horn
of my salvation, my high tower,
and my refuge, my saviour;
thou savest me from violence.”

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!~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peter 3:15

I will not be shaken,
nothing can rattle me
not even my own death
will take me, Lord from Thee.I will not tremble,
I have nothing to fear
even if I'm all alone
God is always near.I will not waiver,
on my Rock, I will stand
if I was to stumble
in His grace I will land.I will not be moved,
nothing can take away
the love I have for Jesus
from His ways I'll not stray.I will not be shaken,
nothing will take from me
the peace, faith and hope
I have dear Lord, in Thee!~~~~~~~
