Love not the World
Are we carnal and fleshly
Walk by faith, or by sight?
By our lusts, sensual desires
Live by instincts, appetites?
Teach us to number our days
We are given each day
For God’s glory, not mine
To obey and to please Him
For His purpose divine.
Not an Option
With three billion, unaware
Of Jesus’ Name, to our shame
Let us pray, give and go
’tis our duty, and aim.
Why Are We Here?
We are here for God’s business
His purpose, not our own
Bringing Him glory
Go make disciples, seeds sown.
Be a Finisher…Gideon’s Downfall
But then sadly, he succumbed
Asked for earrings, from his plunder
Israel gave him much gold
He made an ephod, an evil blunder.
Backsliding
The flames may have died
Fierce passions, ran dry
Many churches, dwindling
Are now asking why?
Your Goal
Your life you can build
On His Word and His will
His pleasure and purpose
You are finally fulfilled.
Only Two Paths
So, choose to walk God’s way
His good paths, of righteousness
By faith we follow Jesus
Cleansed of, all unrighteousness.
Just Existing, or Purpose-Living?
To surrender and yield
As His possession, daily walking
Not existing, but fulfilling
God’s purposes and calling.
Are You Pressing On?
Are you pressing on upward
To reach higher ground
Are you seeking the Lord
In His presence be found?
