10-17-15 Strength Renewed

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Isaiah 40:31 KJV

~~~~~~~~~~~

A bride, a child, a servant and a friend

All wait upon the One who’s worth the wait;

Anticipation breathes without an end,

And hope in confidence does actuate.

Beyond the veil all faith is magnified,

Baptized in love so deep and then returned,

Borne on the sigh of Spirit undenied

Back to the one who waits a grace unearned.

Climb heavenward on graceful eagle wings,

Called on by strength renewed the promised land.

Come now revived and run to arms that brings

Caresses to the soul at last in hand.

Devotion to the Lord brings fortitude.

Delivered with a kiss is love pursued.

1-18-15 Freed From Sin

When you accepted Jesus as your Lord

The sinner that you were was crucified,

That in your death the sin that God abhorred

Was left upon the cross and there reside.

With Jesus you were taken from the cross,

Then raised with Him a new creation born;

The old man’s life is counted as a loss

With all the law fulfilled the veil is torn.

For now so dead from sin you are then free,

And dead in Christ His love removed the stone;

Now Jesus as your Lord and Savior be,

And stepping from the tomb you’re not alone.

As Jesus took to death all earthly sin,

So you that died with Him new life begin.

~~~~~~~~~~~

For he that is dead is freed from sin.

Romans 6:7 KJV

11-12-14 Liberty

Before the Spirit of the Lord descends,

The moment you choose Jesus as your King,

A veil of bondage shrouds you toward an end

Of bitterness and hell beyond death’s sting.

But when His Presence fills your empty heart,

The grace of God will come to rend the veil,

And Oh, the joy this freedom shall impart

Just cannot be described on any scale!

The chains of sin are shattered with His love,

And darkness is dispelled forever more;

The Spirit of the Savior from above

Brings liberty you’ve never known before.

A blind man once in faith reached out his hand,

And with a touch from Christ had vision grand.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Where the Spirit of the Lord is,

there is liberty.

2 Corinthians 3:17 KJV
