GODLY WORDS

God’s words are sacred,
God’s words are seed,
God’s words are spirit,
And of such we have need.

God’s words are containers,
They carry His treasure,
They brought us sweet Jesus,
The Truth, His divine measure.

He was all wrapped in flesh
And walked in this earth,
On a mission from heaven
To save souls through a new birth.

Sacred breath was bestowed on us
Through His Word from above,
So when we exhale it
We carry His LOVE.

I will guard my own heart
And harness my tongue,
To speak nothing but blessings
On the winds of my lungs.

I’ve been given a mission
To give LOVE a voice,
In words, art, and action,
Its expression my choice.

This calling to LOVE, Lord,
With reverence I receive,
By Your grace may I live it
Because I believe.

My heart jumped for joy
In this holy collision,
You answered my prayer, Lord,
Be Thou My vision.

By Your sweet Spirit
May I truly be led,
With godly perfection
Your people will be fed.

A sumptuous banquet
Will God’s Word provide,
Rise up, Oh church,
In unity preside.

Tell My beloved body
I need all its parts,
To accomplish My mission
To save souls through on heart.

Cast off your cares,
Step out of your chains,
Do the will of your Father
And be not constrained.

Run life’s race freely,
By My Word be empowered,
Your destiny is within you,
By your faith will it flower.

One cannot conceive
All the beauty I wrought,
To secure your grand future,
By My blood it was bought.

Do all things on earth
With eternity in sight,
Your reward will be great
And known by all in heaven’s light.

Now go to the nations,
Spread My Word, do your part,
So whoever receives Me,
Will come home to My heart.

“A pen in God’s hand”
Giving LOVE a voice

This poem was inspired by the Holy Spirit. When I wrote it, little did I know how prophetic it truly was. The amazing thing was that in the 6th stanza, My “mission” just popped out and declared itself to me! In the last stanza it declared to me to go to the nations!  Wonder of wonders  –  I am accomplishing that now through my blog. Praise the Lord!

My prayer for you

Heavenly Father, I pray that you will bless everyone who reads this poem. Speak to their hearts individually and declare to them Your marvelous plan for their life, in Jesus name. Amen.

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future”. (Jeremiah 29:11).
