Exalt His Name Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

The Role of a Pastor

His primary goal, our salvation
Our atonement, kept His Word
Yet first trained, His disciples
To spread His Gospel, to the world.

Know God’s Word, teaches both
God’s sovereignty, His will
But also, our heart’s free choice
To stay hardened, or Spirit filled.

Rest in Him, and wait patiently
Fret not o’er those who prosper
Those working wicked ways
Whose works are improper.

Blessed is the man
Who does not walk
In ungodly counsel
But ignores, such talk.

But then sadly, he succumbed
Asked for earrings, from his plunder
Israel gave him much gold
He made an ephod, an evil blunder.

So reach out, in His love
Be a blessing, start caring
Ask God, be His light
Be shining, and sharing.

Grip my heart, with Your Truth
I am loved, beyond measure
Despite all my failures
In Christ, I’m You’re treasure.

But washed clean, before we offer
As in the Tabernacle, with laver
Now Jesus’ blood, still sanctifies
So, our heart and offerings, find favor.

As God’s precious own
We always, are blessed
We are never alone
Amidst trials, that test.

Not to us, O Lord
But all the glory, Thine
Unto Thy Name, praise and thanks
For every gift, divine.
