God keeps His promises, His word Archives - Page 22 of 25

Persecuted Christians

No! We pray and pursue
Before God and man
Send aid and finances
Petition God, for His plan.

On this ‘Feast of First Fruits’
A burnt and grain offering
Foreshadowing Messiah
And His people, following.

How God frees from bondage
All those, captive to sin
Jesus’ blood, our atonement
To cleanse of leaven, within.

And so, love not the world
Nor selfishness, greed
Seek God’s glory alone
Let His Spirit, always lead.

Have you learnt to give thanks
Though adversities grow
Can you trust, the Lord God
When no answers show?

Know, in saving our life
Jesus said, we shall lose it
But if losing for Christ
We gain, God’s Holy Spirit.

His strength, for your weakness
His glory, for your shame
His favor, for your fumbling
Praise His wonderful Name.

As our Father in heaven
Fully trust Him and rest
Wholly yield God, your dreams
Achieve, what He deems best.

For what are you grasping
And groping in life
Is it riches and comfort
Success, without strife?

So, by faith offering God
What is pleasing to Him
Believe that He is
Rewards those seeking Him.
