Flesh or Spirit?

In Christ we are righteous
Through Him, overcome
By His Spirit, victorious
Our battles are won!

Our life’s full of troubles
Tribulations, each day
Yet instead of our resting
We keep struggling, our way.

So, life is not random ‘luck’
God knows our will and ways
Sees our heart’s intent
God decides our lot, always.

So like Israel, we too co-habit
Instead of purging, die to self
Compromising, we let our flesh
Pursue the carnal, and worldly wealth.

So, He trained and role-modeled
Not spectators, but partakers
As He discipled His followers
To be faithful, disciple-makers.

While many churches, think revival
Are not equipping and training
How to go, make new disciples
That go forth, disciple-making.

Not just missionaries, overseas
Nor pastors, evangelists
We’re each called, to reproduce
Be disciple-makers, be a catalyst.

So are our churches, today
Filled with saints, on fire?
Discipled, and out sharing
Making disciples, as required?

For His compassions, fail not
They are new each morning
Great is Your faithfulness
The LORD, is my portion.

Cry out for forgiveness
Accept Jesus’ gift
Exchange our rebellion
His death, bridged the rift.
