Destiny

Bible, Christian Faith, Home, Inspirational, Poems, Scripture
Destiny

As I race towards destiny

I know that

The best achievement

Of man

Is the fulfillment of his destiny

 

As I race towards destiny

I am aware that so many

Did not finish their race

And some giants of face finished

 

Paul finished

And Jesus finished

Living in God’s plan

And walking in it

Is all that matters

 

No matter how successful we are

If we derail from our own calling

And our own race

And pursue our dreams, desires and worldliness

We have indeed failed the assignment

 

Our ultimate goal in life

Should be to please God

And walk in His plan

For our lives

If I Still Pleased Men

Bible, Christian Faith, Home, Inspirational, Purity, Righteousness, Scripture, The Word
If I Still Pleased Men

If I Still Pleased Men

For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ (Galatians 1:10 NKJV)

What a wonder it is

To rise above

The approval of men

To rest in

And to desire

The approval of God

The true mark of deadness

To the flesh

Is when we

Stop being men pleasers

And become God pleasers

Those who strive to please men

Are not pleasing God

They are pleasing themselves

And their ego

With the comfort

And satisfaction

That comes from the

Admiration and approval of men

We must search within us

To constantly evaluate

Whom we are pleading

Men or God

May we reject the pleasures

And ways of the world

In order to rest

In the arms

Of God’s love

Amen

His Reward

Bible, Christian Faith, Holiness, Home, Inspirational, Scripture
His Reward

“He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still.” (Revelation 22:11 NKJV)

And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work (Revelation 22:12 NKJV)

All you weary

And discouraged

Groaning and laboring

In the fields of love

The Lord says

‘Put off the filthy garments

Of weariness and discouragement

Keep on doing good

Because

At the fullness of time

There is a great reward

For the righteous.’

Children of light

Keep marching and never give up

There is great peace

In showing love

It might be painful

It might be hard

Never give up

Because love is the only way

And it is a very narrow

Road

Filled with thorns and thistles

With golden pathways

Stretching up into heaven

May we never give up

And firmly cling to Christ

And His love

Just One Lie

Art, Bible, Christian Faith, Home, Inspirational, Scripture
Just One Lie

 

Sitting on my rocking chair

Lost in deep thoughts

Regretting my past

Discouraged about my future

I remembered Daniel

My childhood best friend

Whom I had hurt badly

Because

I had always assumed

He was mine

Even though we were never

A couple

He married the

Best lady of all

Almost perfect in all things

And I was just

Simply me

The envy

And jealousy

That possessed me

Was beyond reason

And I lied

And broke them apart

Now that I am old

Almost blind

And tired

I reflect on my

Past

And I live in

Complete remorse

And regret

I must call Daniel and apologize

For this regret

Is like a raving fire

Threatening to engulf me

Yes,

I must call Daniel

And I pray

He forgives me

Just one lie

And a terrible consequence

Today

I dedicate my lips to God

And commit my mouth

To truth

As I pray

Daniel forgives me.

It Is Finished

Art, Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Home, Inspirational, Poems, Scripture, The Word
It Is Finished

img_4326

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. (Ephesians 5:11 NKJV)

No more addition

To the gospel

We must believe

That he set us free

Forgave us

And cancelled our sins

He also said to me

The word of God

Will judge those

Who refuse the gospel

On the judgement day.

It is finished!

 

Nothing else can

Redeem us or save us

Except the precious blood

Of Christ

That was shed on Calvary

It is finished!

Everyday I See You

Art, Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Home, Inspirational, Scripture
Everyday I See You

Apostle of Christ

Evangelist of love

Laboring in His vineyard

You are indeed blessed

Everyday I see you

Striving to please Him

You wake up

At odd hours to pray

You travel around the world

In bitter cold

And terrifying heat

Some have thrown stones at you

Some have spat in your face

Despising you

The way they despise Christ

God haters cannot stand you

But the Lord says

Continue my Child

For you were born to preach

And tell people

About my love, grace and mercy

May all who thirst

For salvation run

Fast into the blood of Jesus

For deliverance

And cleaning

Because Jehovahs heart

Is wide open

To those who are weary and thirsty

Come, come He beckons

Come to me

Stewards Of Grace

Art, Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Home, Inspirational, light, Poems, Scripture
Stewards Of Grace

As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: (1 Peter 4:10 ESV)

Stewards of grace

Custodians of His light

Ransomed to be

The light of the world

May we never

Disgrace the grace

Of God

Or drive people away from

The light

Because of our actions

May the bride of Christ

Not hurt

Those they should protect

Because of error

God of all grace

Crown us

With the fullness

Of your grace

Handsome Cloak

Art, Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Home, Inspirational, Poems, Scripture
Handsome Cloak

Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. ” (1 Peter 5:5 ESV)

Humility

Our beautiful and handsome clock

Despised by men

But highly loved by God

In humility Jesus won

In humility Moses was victorious

In humility Paul was

In complete submission

Words cannot tell

Enough about the

Benefits of humility

Who can look down

On you precious virtue

O pretty one

Only the sons of darkness

And the unwise

We will embrace

You humility

Fruit of light

And the foundation

Of Obedience

We will cherish you

The way Jesus did

Because God opposes the proud

But gives grace to

The humble

It Was Worth It

Art, Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Home, Inspirational, Jesus, Scripture, The Word
It Was Worth It

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. (1 Peter 2:24 ESV)

Bearing the unjust

Weight of sin

Terrible and horrible

He suffered alone

With the whole punishment

Of the world upon

Upon His shoulders

He groaned

He moaned

Endured

Persisted

And persisted

It was worth it

Because

By His stripes

And punishment

We are healed

More Precious Than Gold

Art, Bible, Christian Faith, Home, Inspirational, light, Scripture, The Word
More Precious Than Gold

Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. (1 Peter 4:12 ESV)

so that the tested genuineness of your faith – more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire – may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. (1 Peter 1:7 ESV)

Fiery trials

Can be so unexpected

And intimidating

Choking and threatening

Our peace

Fiery trials

Are unpleasant

And unwanted

Because man has

Been programmed

To abhor pain

And difficulties

However

Our faith must be tested

By fire

Because it is

Precious to God

May we always

Persevere and persist

And never give

Up our faith
