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.

Yes, keep praying and asking
For God’s kingdom to come
Despite men’s hardened hearts
Know His will, shall be done!

So daily put on, the new man
In God’s likeness, created
In true righteousness, holiness
Daily victorious, and elated.

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.

Be ever ready for His coming
Though we know not the hour
But be His faithful, wise steward
Await His blessings, to shower.

Once we’re strong in the Lord
And the power of His might
In the armor of God
Each temptation takes flight.

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.

We’re all called, to the unreached
Ask God, direct each day
Through praying, sharing, giving
See more disciples, that obey.
