Give up, selfish wants Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Keep Interceding

That instead, of selfish pleasures
Intercede, for more salvations
The Lord Jesus, returns soon
We must pray for all nations.

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, pray in accord
With His Word, and ways
Every promise proclaim
Thro’ our lives, all our days.

We must hunger for God
Abide daily, in Jesus’ vine
Come dwell in His courts
We’re made dependent, by design.

So, daily hunger for God
For hungry souls, that yearn
To follow Jesus, and multiply
A fruitful harvest, in return.

So forsake selfish wants
Earthly pleasures and pressures
Instead “Here am I”
“LORD, You are my treasure.”

And tell Him in worship
He is all that you need
If prayerfully awaiting
God will answer indeed.

Know if trusting, believing
The gospel of Jesus’ salvation
By the pledge, of His Spirit
We are sealed, His new creation!

The soldiers were gambling
For Jesus’ garments to win
Concerned with the outer
So blind to their sin.

Our repentance, often shallow
More remorse, and regret
Not turning and fleeing
From pet sins, that beset.
