A Circumcised Heart
A new creature in Christ
The old, has passed away
A circumcision, without hands
Jesus opened, a new way.
Be Dead to Sin
Our repentance, often shallow
More remorse, and regret
Not turning and fleeing
From pet sins, that beset.
Are You Needing to Change?
Daily follow and abide
Lift to Him, every thought
As I feed on Your Word
Obey all I am taught.
Boldness and Courage
Recall, God has commanded
We be strong, of good courage
Are not afraid, nor dismayed
Nor are we discouraged.
By God’s Spirit
By Your Spirit, I’m reborn
By Your Spirit, empower
By Your Spirit, do direct
By Your Spirit, overpower.
Be Led of God’s Spirit
By constant prayer, keep seeking
Lest we wander, and fall
Ever dependent, await
God’s Word and wisdom, in all.
God’s Fountain, or Our Cisterns?
With other cisterns, we still thirst But not the waters, Jesus gives
Becomes a fountain, within us
Springing up, forever lives.
Rivers of Living Waters
And God warns by deserting
We become wayward people
As we drink, from broken cisterns
We commit two great evils.
Awaken Us
In the midst of our darkness
God in mercy, send light
An awakening, to revive us
By Your Spirit, to ignite.
Lessons from Iran
With a focus on obeying
God’s truths, they go share
More multiplying disciples
Prayerfully go, everywhere.
