Seeing Beyond

Are we seeing beyond
Life’s heartaches and pain
Great suffering, and sorrow
…Yet see God, bring gain?
Israel and her Foes

And yet our hope is not in weapons
The arm of flesh, will fail
Pray Israel trust in the LORD
Know her Messiah, wholly prevail.
Blind Spots

Denying, defending
Denouncing as true
Each weakness and failure
God points out to you?
In Political Contributions They Trust?

God offers a promise
If His people will pray
And humble ourselves
Walk in His way.
Our Daily Battle is Real

Succumbing not, to our foes
Our culture, our flesh
Nor the devil’s destruction
But see Christ’s, blessed success.
Futility or Fullness?

And put on the new man
Created according to God
In true righteousness and holiness
In His fullness, now daily trod.
All Soldiers, No Abstainers!

Life’s not a cruise-ship, but a battleship
We’re not observers, but partakers
And not passive, but active
Bear God’s armor, no abstainers!
Making Sense of the Gaza War

For behind all the bloodshed
A spiritual war, deploys
With dark forces of evil
Seek God’s chosen, to destroy.
Want to be Free?

Hallelujah, set free
Midst trials and testing
In victory, now walk
Yes! in Jesus keep resting.
Our Victorious God

Know God alone conquers
Every battle is won
Yet, He invites us partake
Wholly trust, in His Son.
