Speak To Me Lord Jesus ~
Speak to me Lord Jesus,
make Yourself known
so that Your plans
can to me be shown.
Tell me what to do,
prepare for me the way
I promise I will listen
to what You have to say.
Speak to me Lord Jesus,
while I am staying still
let me know what is
for me Your perfect will.
Show me the road,
You’d have me to take
I promise I’ll follow it
for Your name’s sake.
Speak to me Lord Jesus,
I am ready to hear . . .
Your Word’s of hope
for me loud and clear!
~~~~~~~~
I wait for the Lord,
my soul doth wait,
and in his word
do I hope.

God Equips Us ~
God equips His vessels,
according to His will
all He wants them to do
is to wait and be still.
He has a purpose,
for each vessels use
and until He is done
He’ll not set them loose.
God shapes His vessels,
as He sees fit
He molds each one
of them bit by bit.
He has a plan,
for forming each one
as He works into them
the image of His Son.
God equips His vessels,
with all things pleasing
as the power of Jesus
He begins releasing!
~~~~~~
Make you perfect in every
good work to do his will,
working in you that which is
well pleasing in his sight,
through Jesus Christ; to whom
be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

God’s Timing Not Mine ~
I have found,
God’s timing’s the best
on this fact
I have come to rest.
For His plan is always,
the only perfect one
so I’ve learned to wait
until He is done.
I have found,
God not to ever push
so I know not to be
in a hurry or a rush.
For He has a hand,
on all He does
so I stay still . . .
simply because.
I have found,
God’s timing to be
perfectly fitting
and suitable just for me!

Wait-Training ~
Wait-training,
we all need to go through
it’s something . . .
we must to learn to do.
For, God wants to teach us,
how on Him to rely
and to trust Him when
He’s got us on standby.
It will take patience,
and a lot of practice
for wait-training requires
us to be proactive.
For, God wants to show us,
His timing is the best
through He’s got us waiting
we can still be at rest.
Wait-training,
takes a lot of fortitude
for it takes strength to have
a surrendered attitude!

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.”

Be Patient With God ~
Be patient with God,
He knows what He’s doing
sometimes to our prayers
He takes His time moving.
Be patient with God,
enjoy the time waiting
for the answers to our prayers
He’s carefully delegating.
Be patient with God,
He is working out His plan
you will need a lot of faith
to fill in the time span.
Be patient with God,
give Him the time He needs
not all of His answers
come at rapid speeds.
Be patient with God,
trust Him and be still
He’s working out for you
what is His perfect will.
Be patient with God,
your times are in His hands
and for you He is working on
His awesome, amazing plans!

God Has A Purpose ~
God has a purpose,
He had a plan
before our lives
even began.
He knows all things,
for our own good
will work out
as He said they would.
But, we must love,
God and His ways
we must have a heart
that yields and obeys.
We need to know,
what is God’s will
we need to wait
and to be still.
God has a purpose,
but, it’s up to us
to heed the calling
of faith and trust!

“For I know the thoughts
that I think toward you,
saith the Lord,
thoughts of peace,
and not of evil,
to give you an expected end.”

Stillness In The Storms ~
The Lord wants us,
in the storm to be still
He wants us to know
for us, this is His will.
He wants us to remain,
quiet on the inside
when every thing else
is troubled on the outside.
He wants us to know,
the battle is His to fight
He wants us to seek
the refuge of His might.
He wants us to have,
peace and tranquility
when all else around us
is full of anxiety.
The Lord wants us,
to have a calm soul
He wants us to know
He’s the One in control!

Waiting On God ~
Waiting on God,

and belief stimulating.
It is relieving,
this God waiting
it is anxiety
and fear sparing.
Waiting on God,
is time well spent
for His answers are . . .
always heaven-sent!

A Spiritual Journey ~
We’re all on a journey,
to spiritual maturity
we’re all looking for . . .
eternal security.
We’re all on the road,
to peace everlasting
we’re all looking for . . .
Godly understanding.
We’re all on the course,
to hope and perfection
we’re all looking for . . .
God’s divine direction.
We’re all on the path,
to knowing God’s will
we’re all looking for . . .
wisdom to be still.
We all carry baggage,
as we make our trip
we’re all looking for . . .
God’s truths to grip!

O Lord; teach me thy paths.
Lead me in thy truth, and teach me:

This Battle is God’s ~
I’m claiming victory,
I know just who is in charge
and I believe God’s methods
are the best ones to discharge.
For this battle is not mine,
it belongs to God alone
and I truly get that . . .
His ways are not my own.
I have learned to be still,
to wait and to be quiet
and most importantly
I have learned not to quit.
For I am God’s soldier,
He’s enlisted me to fight
and in His strength I’ll win
by the power of His might.
I’m claiming my victory,
way ahead of time . . .
for I know this mountain
God will help me to climb!
~~~~~~~~~~
“And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah,
and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem,
and thou king Jehoshaphat,
Thus saith the Lord unto you,
Be not afraid nor dismayed by
reason of this great multitude;
for the battle is not yours,
but God’s.”

When I am Strong ~
Lord, when I’m strong,
my faith is weak
and Your will
I do not seek.
For, on my own,
I think I can do it
and I make no time
to wait and sit.
I believe I know,
what I’m to do
so I rush off Lord
without You.
But, when I am weak,
my faith is strong
and I seek Your face
all day long.
For, when I admit,
alone, I can’t do it
it’s when I’m lead
by Your Spirit!
~~~~~

then am I strong.”

I Know God Will ~
I know God can,
I believe He will
so I will wait . . .
and I’ll be still.
I know He’s able,
so I will trust
for Him to do
what He must.
It won’t do me,
one bit of good
to fear or doubt
as I once would.
For I have learned,
to sit and wait . . .
is better than taking
Satan’s worry bait.
I know God will,
I believe He can
so I’ll just leave . . .
this too, in His hand.

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!~~~~~~~
