The Time is Brief ~
Now more than ever,
we need to be watchful
we need to stick to . . .
the truths in the Gospel.
For the time is nearing,
when all we will hear
are satan and his lies
shouted in our ears.
Now more than ever,
we need to be strong
we need to discern
right from wrong.
For now is the time,
for us to make a choice
to listen to the world’s
or the Holy Spirit’s voice.
Now more than ever,
the time is brief . . .
for Jesus is coming
just like a thief!
~~~~~~~
“For yourselves know
perfectly that the day
of the Lord so cometh
as a thief in the night.”

The Perfect Time Zone ~
God’s timing,
is always the best
on this fact
we can safely rest.
For His timing,
is not like our own
for His is in . . .
the perfect time zone.
God’s timing,
is never too early
His timetable
never gets murky.
For His timing,
is right up to the hour
there isn’t anything
not under His power.
God’s timing,
is perfectly set
on His time-frame
we can safely bet!
~~~~~~~~
“As for God, his way is perfect:
the word of the Lord is tried:
he is a buckler to all those
that trust in him.”
“But, beloved, be not ignorant
of this one thing,
that one day is with the Lord
as a thousand years,
and a thousand years
as one day.”

Guilty Sinners ~
Guilty sinners,
deserving disgrace
instead are saved
by Jesus’ grace.
Worthy of hell,
its perishing heat
instead their Savior
in heaven will meet.
Guilty sinners,
not meriting favor
instead eternity
they will savor.
Worthy of humiliation,
for their sin
instead the crown of life
they will win.
Guilty sinners,
saved by Jesus’ grace
for He was cursed
in their place!
~~~~~~
“For all have sinned,
and come short of
the glory of God;”
“Christ hath redeemed us from
the curse of the law, being
made a curse for us: for it
is written,
Cursed is every one
that hangeth on a tree:”

Drawn ~
Drawn by God’s power,
into the Light
drawn to Jesus
by His holy might.
Drawn to the cross,
to the Life and Way
drawn by the mercy
He showed that day.
Drawn by faith,
to be forgiven
drawn by grace
to a Savior risen.
Drawn to Christ,
to be forever joyful
drawn by God’s favor
to be always hopeful.
Drawn by my Father,
to His Son . . .
drawn to become
with Him one!
~~~~~
“No man can come to me,
except the Father which
hath sent me draw him:
and I will raise him

Sheep Needing Feeding ~
The harvest is getting closer,
so many sheep need feeding
it’s time to go into the field
for so many are needing.
Needing to know God,
His mercy and favor
needing to find hope
the grace of a Savior.
Needing to be set free,
from satan’s deceit
needing the Gospel truth
about the judgment seat.
Needing the blood of Christ,
the Truth, Way and Life
needing to find freedom
from their sinful strife.
Harvest time is coming,
the sheep still need feeding
and it’s up to you and I . . .
to fulfill Jesus’ heeding!
~~~~~~~~
“He saith unto him the third time,
Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me?
Peter was grieved because he said
unto him the third time,
Lovest thou me?
And he said unto him, Lord,
thou knowest all things;
thou knowest that I love thee.
Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.”

Eternally Secured ~
You may try,
but, I can’t be moved
for my soul to Jesus
is irreversibly glued.
You may attempt,
but, I can’t be pried
for my heart to Jesus
is indefinitely tied.
You may endeavor,
but, I won’t be persuaded
for my life to Jesus
is securely barricaded.
You may aspire,
but, I cannot be lured
for my mind to Jesus
is eternally secured.
You may try,
every trick in the book
but my soul to Jesus . . .
is permanently hooked!
~~~~~~~
“Truly my soul waiteth upon God:
from him cometh my salvation.
“He only is my rock and my salvation;
he is my defence;
I shall not be greatly moved.”

Don’t Be Shy ~
Don’t be shy,
don’t hesitate
your prayers to God
do resonate.
For whatever we ask,
God promises to hear
so get rid of your doubt
and over your fear.
Don’t be bashful,
don’t vacillate
your prayers to God
do captivate.
For whatever we need,
God promises to supply
so stop questioning Him
with if, but and why.
Don’t be shy,
don’t be timid
let your prayers
to God be lifted!

“And if we know that he hear us,
whatsoever we ask, we know that
we have the petitions that we
desired of him.”

God’s Comfort ~
Thank you God,
for comforting me
when my cares
are all I see.
Thank you Father,
for Your Son
who my burdens
takes each one.
Thank you God,
for comforting me
when riding out
the storms at sea.
Thank you Father,
for Your Spirit
who gives to me
the grace and grit.
Thank you God,
for comforting me
when troubles come
with trust in Thee!
~~~~~~
“Blessed be God, even the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of mercies,
and the God of all comfort;
Who comforteth us in all
our tribulation, that we
may be able to comfort them
which are in any trouble,
by the comfort wherewith
we ourselves are comforted of God.

Before God ~
One day before God,
you will give an account
as to why you shunned Him
and shut His Son out.
One day you will be,
to God accountable
and for your rebellion
be held responsible.
One day judgement’s seat,
you will have to face
and tell God why you rejected
His gift of love and grace.
One day Jesus.
will determine your fate
and open up to you the pit
and not the narrow gate.
One day before God,
you will bow . . .
one day Jesus’ name
you will avow!
~~~~~~~

“For it is written,
As I live, saith the Lord,
every knee shall bow to me,
and every tongue shall

Get God Involved ~
So often we have problems,
we try to fix alone . . .
when what we should do
is take them to the throne.
We know that in God,
we need to place our trust
but when troubles come
this doesn’t resonate in us.
So we think we’ve the power,
our worries we can overcome
and doing things ourselves
becomes the rule of thumb.
We know Jesus said,
our burden’s He would bear
and instead of letting go
we hold on to our care.
We set out our anchor,
in the sea of faithlessness
making for ourselves
an even bigger mess.
So often we have problems,
alone we try to resolve . . .
when we should be asking
for God to get involved!

and he shall sustain thee:

righteous to be moved.”

Night Sky ~
When I look out,
on the sky at night
I stand gaping . . .
at the starry sight.
I recall the days,
when I was young
and the many wishes
on them I made upon.
But, now when I see,
their starry twinkling
they have me on . . .
eternal life thinking.
Instead of wishing,
for things worldly
now my prayer is to see
gates white and pearly.
When I look out,
on the starry night
now I see my name
twinkling in their light!

he calleth them all by their names.”

Fake Good News ~
There’s a lot of fake news,
going around today . . .
there’s also a fake Good News
leading many astray.
It’s a gospel that tells you,
with material wealth you’ll be blessed
it’s about living well here and now
and not about eternal rest.
It’s a gospel of tolerance,
with plenty of leeway
to do what you want
not what the Scriptures say.
It’s a gospel that preaches,
if it feel good just do it
don’t worry about being
convicted by the Holy Spirit.
There’s a fake Good News,
from the pulpits being spewed
for the real Gospel of Jesus
by man has been skewed!
~~~~~~
“But there were false prophets
also among the people, even
as there shall be false teachers
among you, who privily shall
bring in damnable heresies,
even denying the Lord that
bought them, and bring upon
themselves swift destruction.”

Blessed Are Those Who Trust ~
Blessed are those,
whose trust is sure
who in the Lord
their faith’s secure.
They wait on the Lord,
they do not faint
they run the race
without complaint.
Blessed are those,
who are pure and meek
they know it’s God
they must first seek.
They are strong,
they are brave
they are known
by the way they behave.
Blessed are those,
whose hope is based
on their faith in Jesus
and His saving grace!
~~~~~~~~~
“Blessed is the man
who trusts in the Lord,
whose trust is the Lord.
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.”

For Those Who Love God ~
For those who love God,
we know He is working
His purpose in our lives
for the good He’s preparing.
He uses our weary moans,
and our thankful sighs
He uses our lowest lows
and our highest highs.
For those who love God,
we know there’s a reason
we know He is working
in us in every season.
He uses the sunny days,
and long stormy nights
He uses the dark times
and the one shining bright.
For those who love God,
we know He has a purpose
for with a great price . . .
our lives He has purchased!
~~~~~~
“And we know that all things
work together for good
to them that love God,
to them who are the called
according to his purpose.”

This Is My Hope ~
This is my hope,
this is it for me
this is my eyes set
on what I can’t see.
This is my desire,
this is all I need
that’s why to Jesus
my life I now heed.
This is my faith,
this is all I got
this is my belief
Jesus my sins bought.
This is my trust,
this is my take
Jesus died and rose
for my soul’s sake.
This is my hope,
it can be yours too
when you ask Jesus . . .
to dwell inside of you!
~~~~~
“Now faith is the substance
of things hoped for,
the evidence of things

Jesus Prays For Us ~
When my words,
I cannot form
and to God my pleas
I cannot inform.
That’s when Jesus,
steps right in
with moans coming
from deep within.
When I can’t even,
begin to pray
all though I have
a lot to say.
That’s when Jesus,
for me advocates
and my prayers to God
He formulates.
When my words,
can’t form my needs
that’s when Jesus . . .
for me intercedes!

Crowd Pleasers ~
Crowd pleasers,
filling up the pews
adapting God’s Word
with worldly views.
Changing the truth,
to delight men
not caring if God
they should offend.
Crowd pleasers,
seeking man’s approval
altering scriptures
seeing to their removal.
Seeking and wanting,
needing man’s favor
more than that of
their Lord and Savior.
Crowd pleasers,
filling up Sunday seats
and sadly God’s sheep . . .
are now being fleeced!
~~~~~~
“What thing soever I command you,
observe to do it: thou shalt not
add thereto, nor diminish from it.”
“But as we were allowed of God
to be put in trust with the gospel,
even so we speak; not as pleasing men,
but God, which trieth our hearts.”

Crumbs ~
Crumbs,
morsels of hope
for us to spread
all over the globe.
Crumbs,
little bits of peace
for us to scatter
and daily release.
Crumbs,
scrapes of light
for us to sow
to give new sight.
Crumbs,
shreds of what we believe
so the Good News
others can receive.
Crumbs,
put them all together
oh what a great harvest
we could truly gather!

He puts into all of us.I believe that Satan,

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 . . .

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!~~~~~~~~~~~~
