NO HUMILITY

NO HUMILITY

 

With deceptive words

They call money a seed

If you send it to them

You’ll get what you need

 

As they grow wealthy

With their mansions and planes

They flaunt their wealth

From you they obtained

 

They only buy the best  

Having no humility

They live a life of luxury

Like some celebrity

 

Understand Jesus had nothing

Not a place to lay His head

He only came to serve

Then His blood He shed

 

Would they be willing

To be like Paul

To take up the cross

And sell it all

 

Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him,

“One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have

and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven;

and come, take up the cross, and follow Me.”

MARK 10:21     

 

“Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

LUKE 8:11

 

By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive

words; for a long time their judgment has not been

idle, and their destruction does not slumber.

2 PETER 2:3

DARE TO COMPLAIN

DARE TO COMPLAIN

 

People will complain

Church is to long

As soon as it’s over

In a flash they’re gone

 

Jesus suffered and died

He did it for you

You need to remember

What He went through

 

He was nailed to the cross

For hours He hung

There He was mocked

By the old and young

 

There’s 168 hours in a week

You give God one hour of one day

How would you like it if

For 167 hours He went away

 

You can sit there for hours

And watch some game

To sit for God and Jesus

You dare to complain

 

19 And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it,

and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which

is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”

LUKE 22:19  

 

25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together,

as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another,

and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

  HEBREWS 10:25  

 

Nevertheless I have this against you,

that you have left your first love.

REVELATION 2:4

YOU INSPIRE ME

YOU INSPIRE ME

 

I’m lost without him

God what can I do

Please give me something

I can do for You

 

Everyday is the same

From dawn to dawn

The dreams we once had

Now they’re all gone

 

Give me new dreams

Set my heart afire

To serve You Lord

Is my hearts desire

 

Now as I read Your word

You’ve inspired me

To reach out to others

Through poetry

 

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you

should go; I will guide you with My eye.

PSALM 32:8     

 

32 And they said to one another, “Did not our heart burn

within us while He talked with us on the road, and

while He opened the Scriptures to us?”

LUKE 24:32     

 

28 And we know that all things work together for good

to those who love God, to those who are the called

according to His purpose.

ROMANS 8:28

THE COUNTERFEIT

THE COUNTERFEIT

 

The written Word

Is for your benefit

Soon will he’ll coming

The counterfeit

 

It’s all in God’s word

But you refused to see

You created your own god

From some fantasy

 

You pick and choose

What you want to believe

You made it so easy

For Satan to deceive

 

He’s the father of lairs

You’ve chosen to follow

Your new age religion

Is empty and hollow

 

Jesus is the Word

He can set you free

If you study the bible

The truth you will see

 

The Eternal Word

1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word

was with God, and the Word was God.

He was in the beginning with God.

JOHN 1:1-2

    

13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming

themselves into apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder! For Satan

himself transforms himself into an angel of light.

2 CORINTHIANS 11:13-14  

  

that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and

carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of

men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, For the

time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine,

EPHESIANS 4:14

 

but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears,

they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their

ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.

2 TIMOTHY 4:3-4

THEY CAN’T SEE

THEY CAN’T SEE

 

From my lonely sad life

I need some relief

So when I’m with others

I hide my grief

 

I take in their joy

It up lifts me 

For this moment time

My grief they can’t see

 

But times it feel

Like nobody cares

I know it’s my fault

Because they’re not aware

 

My heart is so broken

I struggle to go on

Then Jesus said come

On Me lean upon

 

Only He can see me through

The minutes hours and days

The grief that I carry

His love outweighs

 

22 Cast your burden on the Lord,
And He shall sustain you; He shall never

permit the righteous to be moved.

PSALM 55:22     

 

Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed,

for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help

you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

ISAIAH 41:10

HERE TO STAY

HERE TO STAY

 

Jesus my Savior

What You went through

You did it for me

With a love so true

 

As I read Your word

You feel so near

Your words come alive

Like You’re right here

 

I couldn’t imagine

A day without You

To deal with this life

I wouldn’t have a clue

 

Some days may be hard

But then I pray

It’s then You remind me

You’re here to stay

 

The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears,

And delivers them out of all their troubles.

PSALM 34:17

 

And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled

Himself and became obedient to the point of

death, even the death of the cross.

PHILIPPIANS 2:8

 

Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content

with such things as you have. For He Himself has said,

“I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

HEBREWS 13:5

THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS

THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS

 

For the sins of the people

Judgment will come

It will fall on all

Not just some

 

Parts will get floods

Others no rain

And there’ll be droughts

And hurricanes

 

For the Day of the Lord

The earth groans and shakes

These are the beginning of sorrows

Bringing great earthquakes

 

Know God’s children

This they’ll not face

For when this happens

They’ll be safe in His place

 

Then come God’s wrath

After these sorrows

If you don’t know Jesus

There’ll be no tomorrows

 

For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom

against kingdom. And there will be famines,

pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.

All these are the beginning of sorrows.

MATTHEW 24:7-8    

 

and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He

raised from the dead,  even Jesus who

delivers us from the wrath to come.

1 THESSALONIANS 1:10      

 

And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be

saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

MATTHEW 24:22
