Before you go out,
before you begin your day
to spread the Gospel
to the people along the way.
Make sure you’re equipped,
for the battle ahead
for satan will do anything
so the Word you can’t spread.
Before you go out,
before the day you greet
make sure your prepared
to stand firmly on your feet.
For satan will attack you,
any way that he can . . .
for to the Gospel of peace
he is not a huge fan.
Before you go out,
to spread the Good News
satan’s land mines . . .
you’ll need to first defuse!
~~~~~~~~
Ephesians 6:15
And your feet shod with
the preparation of the
gospel of peace;

The helmet of salvation,
we need to wear everyday
or else the way we think
satan will begin to sway.
For, we need our minds,
protected with God’s Word
so that satan doesn’t mess
with the truth we’ve heard.
The helmet of salvation,
will safeguard all of us
from satan destroying
in God our faith and trust.
For our hope in believing,
in the things not seen
from our thoughts
satan will start to glean.
The helmet of salvation,
is a daily must wear . . .
so that we will not fall
into one of satan’s snares!
~~~~~~~~
Ephesians 6:17
And take the
helmet of salvation,

If you want to have hope,
faith you will need . . .
to trust in the facts
when your Bible you read.
You’ll need to take the position,
and to have the conviction
that Jesus is the only way
to eternal salvation.
If your are to have faith,
hope you will require
for one without the other
will only expire.
For faith without hope,
has nowhere to go . . .
and the love of God
you will never know.
Hope that is unseen,
is hard to believe . . .
unless into your heart
~ Jesus ~
you openly receive!
~~~~~~~~
Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance
of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen.
1 Corinthians 13:13
And now abideth faith, hope, charity,
these three; but the greatest of these
is charity.

God’s plans for you,
are yours to discover . . .
they’re found in your Bible
from cover to cover.
A future of hope,
for you He has in store
once you open to Him
your seeking heart’s door.
Your life He will guide,
when you seek Him first
He’ll satisfy your needs
your hunger and thirst.
Once to Him you commit,
your steps He will guide
when directions you need
He’ll help you to decide.
God’s plans for you,
are easy to find . . .
but, first you must seek Him
with all your heart and mind!

For I know the thoughts

I live with fear,
out of respect
for the word of God
I do not reject.
I hold the truth,
close to my breast
so in righteousness
my soul can rest.
I live boldly,
wisdom I seek
for the more I know
the less I am weak.
I look to God,
in times trying
knowing my strength
He’ll be supplying.
I live with fear,
it makes me brave
for the word of God . . .
shows me how to behave!

You needn’t be a Magi,
to follow the CHRISTmas Star . . .
you don’t have to make a trip
or need to come from very far.
You don’t have to bring gifts,
of gold, myrrh or frankincense
it won’t cost you a thing . . .
other then your penitence.
You needn’t be a shepherd,
to follow the CHRISTmas Star . . .
you don’t have to go anywhere
it will come to where you are.
For, Jesus is the Light shinning,
for all of the world to see . . .
He brings hope to the darkness
with His grace He’ll set you free.
You don’t have to be a Magi,
or a shepherd coming from afar
you can accept the gift of Jesus . . .
today, right from where you are!

Matthew 2:9-11
When they had heard the king,
they departed; and, lo, the star,
which they saw in the east, went
before them, till it came and stood
over where the young child was.
When they saw the star,
they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
And when they were come into the house,
they saw the young child with Mary his mother,
and fell down, and worshipped him:
and when they had opened their treasures,
they presented unto him gifts; gold, and
frankincense and myrrh.
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.”

My faith and trust,
in Jesus I put
every day I look
for His wise input.
I know His advice,
is all that I need
and so His words
in my Bible I read.
It’s there He shows me,
where I should go
how much I need Him
for my faith to grow.
It’s there in His love,
He roots and grounds me
with the faith to believe
in what I can’t see.
My faith and trust,
is in Jesus only . . .
for I trust in Him
with my heart wholly!

May you feel the wonder,
of God’s gift of a Savior
may His love and grace

May you feel the thrill,
of the hope of His birth
may your heart overflow
with joy, cheer and mirth.
May you feel the wonder,
of the coming of a King
may you trust and believe
in the peace He’s soon to bring.
May you feel the excitement,
of Him who was and is to come
may you be eager and ready
for Him to set up His kingdom.
May you feel the wonder,

Each morning as the sun,
rises up to shine
I pick up this old Bible
I faithfully call mine.
It is marked and highlighted,
some pages are a little torn
the cover on the outside
appears too a little worn.
It’s been with me for years,
it has been like a friend
it’s helped through the curves
guided me around each bend.
I have learned a lot from it,
it’s given me needed direction
it had for me all the answers
as I followed it’s instruction.
Each night as the sun,
dips into the night . . .
I pick up this old Bible
to shine on me the Light!
~~~~~
Psalm 143:8
Let the morning bring me
word of your unfailing love,
for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way I should go,
for to you I entrust my life.

I love this time of year,
with Thanksgiving just ahead
it reminds me of some facts
in the Bible I have read . . .
In all things be thankful,
let joy and praise flow out of you
for everything be grateful
give God the glory He is due.
Make peacefulness your habitation,
let your gentleness be known
be kind, tender-hearted and forgiving
never be the first to cast a stone.
Extend a hand to the needy,
let charity be your perfect gift
help all those who have not
bring back to God those adrift.
Show others your appreciation,
let them see your gratitude
bless them for their helpfulness
be not selfish in your attitude.
Reach out to the sick and hurting,
let them see Jesus’ true compassion
show all acts of grace and mercy
let not the sun go down on your passion.
Be content with all that you have,
rejoice in whatever is your state
be satisfied with all of the goodness
God places each day on your plate.
In everything be thankful,
let your praise be heard by all
in everything be grateful
let your joy be seen by all!
~~~~~~~~
Ephesians 5:20
“Giving thanks always
for all things unto

Along the righteous path,
there are promise galore
for us to discover . . .
to search and explore.
For God promised to lead us,
on the road that is straight
and to show us the Way . . .
to get to the narrow gate.
He said we could ask Him,
for His guidance, divine
and to give us the endurance
to make it to the finish line.
God said it wouldn’t be easy,
there would be lots of stress
but He’d give us the grace
to continue to onward press.
He said we’d find His favor,
His mercy and goodness . . .
to reveal His purposes and plans
so to prove to us His kindness.
Along the righteous path,
God promised He’d lead
and we will find them all . . .
if our Bible’s we would read!

All the paths of the Lord
