God Searches Each Heart

“For he shall be like a tree;
Planted by the waters;
Spreads out its roots, by the river,”
Godly sons, and daughters.
Ignore Offenses…Release Resentments

And so instead, of our resentment,
Ignore offenses, forgive their views,
Be not bound, by negativity,
Instead in love, share His Good News.
Loving or Snubbing?

And so do choose, to be forgiving;
To let go, of negative feelings;
Be replaced by God’s grace;
Let His love, bring in us healing.
Addressing Leaven (How did Jesus love hypocrites?)

So, are we acting out of love?
Or busy judging, criticizing;
Fault-finding, others’ failures;
Is our motive, their sanctifying?
A Bruised Reed and Smoking Flax?

For He takes, the useless;
What others deplore;
In His Hand, always hope;
From these, brings so much more.
Fearless or Fearful?

Be not ashamed, of the Gospel;
‘Tis the power of God;
To salvation for everyone;
Who believes, responds.
My Weakness for His Strength

For His grace is sufficient,
His strength perfected, in my weakness,
Will gladly boast, in my infirmities,
Christ’s power rest, on me in meekness.
Our ‘Flesh’ has to Die

So have we died with Christ
Our flesh on the Cross?
Are we carnal and selfish
Or count all things as loss?
Easily Offended?

And know, that these hurts
In your heart, cause resentment
So, ensure you forgive
Claim His forgiveness, be repentant.
Awake Us, O LORD

Shake us and wake us
Revive us, O Lord
Send down the fires
May Your Spirit, be poured.
