Be filled with His Spirit Archives - Page 9 of 32

Thine Not Mine

Now put on, the Lord Jesus;
Not my feelings, inner surges;
For so quickly, so easily;
We succumb, to carnal urges.

So full surrender, full obedience;
Rebuke all ‘foes’… His Spirit fill;
With great faith, do not doubt;
Be not hindering, God’s will.

“Lord, examine and cleanse me;
Search and prove me within;
Try my mind, and my heart;
Do reveal, where I still sin”.

Learn to lean and to cast;
All our cares, upon Him;
Not weighed down with worry;
We’ve the Holy Spirit, within!

Not little faith, with self-hindering;
But great faith, wholly trusting;
Be not burdened with our baggage;
But fully yielded, Jesus entrusting.

And so, anxiety and depression;
Two perspectives, two worldviews;
Based on men, or God’s Word;
Which one, will you choose?

Asking God, to send revival;
Start in me, LORD sanctify;
Use my life, to reach the lost;
See saved souls, multiply.

We must seek, God will lead;
Learn from mentors, start partaking;
Equipping us, for this ministry;
Obey, go forth, disciple-making.

Instead of Jesus’ plan, ‘Go forth’;
Most churches center, on us sitting;
Disciple-making, so neglected ;
Jesus’ Commission, largely missing.

So not to focus, on our feelings;
But recall, our Victor, Jesus;
Not to fall into self-pity;
We are victorious, He’s ever with us.
