Love- the Fruit of the Spirit
God begets us in the power of the Spirit anew
Then, the journey of faith in the Lord, we begin
There is no turning back to whatever is of the flesh
There is every reason to fall back on the Spirit instead
God supplies the Spirit to us who are obedient
We are filled with the Spirit in consequence
The Spirit of God is at work in us ceaselessly
We, then, are enabled to serve the Lord fruitfully
The Spirit has poured out God’s love to us in grace
We, therefore, are to love God and God’s in return
There is no mistaking about the Spirit indwelling
Love is the visible sign of the Spirit empowering
Inspiration from:
Galatians 3:3-5, 5:22-23; Romans 5:5,
The Lord speaks to Moses face to face
The cries of the people of God reached heavens
God, thus, stooped down to come to their rescue
Finally, they were set free to serve the Lord their God
Distinctly, the people of Israel had stood out, since then
Out of the burning bush, God called Moses
He then was hesitant to heed the call at first
He, however, saw himself speaking with the Lord Yahweh
Moses, since then, had sought to serve God in His own terms
Moses a man of God prayed in faith and humility
He learned more of God as he interceded in earnest
God was always gracious to him, and let him obtain His favor
God did speak to Moses in person, when he asked in prayer
Moses truly was a legendary leader God had molded
The works he had done speak of his faith in volumes
No one like Moses led God’s people by revelations
For the Lord spoke to no one like Moses in high honor
Inspiration from:-
Exodus 1-8, 33, Number 12:8, Deut. 34:10-12, Heb.11:6
David cried to God, “You are my Father”
God sought a man after His own heart
David was that man God was looking for
And He had chosen him as a king for Himself
The Lord was with David through His Spirit
He was always with him till the end
And that was what David pleaded in prayer
David was truly led by the Spirit of God
He was bold and courageous for the LORD
Yet, he was wise and prudent in all his ways
David was a special son and servant of the LORD
He regarded himself as a mere slave before God
Yet, he sought to relate to God as Abba his Father!
Inspiration from:
1 Samuel 13:14, 16:13, Psalm 51: 11,
1 Samuel 17:36, 18:5, 14, 2 Samuel 7: 5-7, 18-21, Psalm 89:26-29
Through Your Mercy
I was wandering in the dark
‘cause I was dead and lost in sins
I was eradicating my ‘self’ in loss
‘cause I couldn’t cease desiring Nirvana
I am now washed and cleansed
As the Spirit of God begets me from above
I am now found and flourished
As my ‘self’ is home in Imago Dei once again
God has created in me a new heart
As Jesus is welcome to my heart anew
The Holy Ghost gives life to my poor body
So that I may walk on earth with heaven in sight
Never shall I fear evils or foes in this life and beyond
I know Your mercy is new, fresh, and sufficient all the way
Never shall I boast about my walk or my works again
It was, is, and will be, solely through Your mercy I am saved
Truly Mindful of Us…
We play no part in what God has planned for us
He redeemed us out of His unique fondness of mankind
He creates us anew in Christ for good things to come
The God of heavens is truly mindful of us, the chosen
Christmas symbolizes God’s option for life and light
The LORD God has taken sides with us the peoples
He is Immanuel – the “God-with-us” in Jesus the man
The God of Israel is truly mindful of us, the called
Jesus’ come to teach and show us the way Divine
The way of blessedness is truly narrow and difficult
God, however, has perfect ways to lead us through
The LORD of hosts is truly mindful of us, the heirs
In Him was Life…Light
Dark hours of life cloud eyes of faith from time to time
But that Christ enlightens us about life does come true
For in Him, never shall we become blind and wild
Threats to life are a present reality to reckon with
But that we’re hidden with Christ is the truth to resonate
For in Him, never shall we lose this life in regret
Darkness may promote sin and shame
But it has no right over us to bind and blind
Only Christ – our very Light – will beat and bless
Death may bring to us fear and tears
But it has no power over us to rein and ruin
Only Christ – our very Life – will reign and rule
