“Be strong and of good courage”

And Modern Israel again
Of these words, must take heed
Yet likewise, on our journey
We too also, have need.

God’s Pressure Cooker

God uses all ways
To turn up the heat
To soften our hearts
Our hardness, defeat.

Failing, Falling or Faith?

When we’re failing and falling
And we’re hitting, rock bottom
We can stand, on Christ Jesus
Our sure Rock, and still blossom.

Watching and Waiting

Be ever ready for His coming
Though we know not the hour
But be His faithful, wise steward
Await His blessings, to shower.

Escape Temptations

For when tempted, God provides
A way out, an escape
That we’re able, to endure
So let us learn, avoid mistakes.

Temptations

Once we’re strong in the Lord
And the power of His might
In the armor of God
Each temptation takes flight.

Flesh or Spirit?

In Christ we are righteous
Through Him, overcome
By His Spirit, victorious
Our battles are won!

Deception-Seduction

But in place of God’s lordship
Satan swiftly deceived
Appealed to their senses
Denied truths, God revealed.

Forbidden Fruit

Stay far from temptations
Not seeking our pleasure
Instead, cleaving closer
To Christ, our true treasure.

God Promises Us Victory

Overwhelmed, on our own
We feel helpless, and lost
So set our mind, believe God’s Word
There is victory, through the cross.
