The Prayer Of A True Disciple Of The Lord Jesus Christ

 - January 8, 2014

My Dear Lord Jesus I lift up my eyes towards the Heavens beyond

as I lift my eyes heavenward, I lift my soul up to thee,

asking thee in prayer to search out the inner depths of my soul,

to reveal unto me where I am displeasing Thee as your disciple.

My dear Lord Jesus search out the inner most depths

of my soul to see if I am walking as Thee walked.

He that saith he abideth in him ought himself

also so to walk, even as he walked.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

My dear Lord Jesus search out in the inner most depths

of my soul to see if I am abiding in Thee as I should.

I am the vine,ye are the branches: He that abideth in me,

and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit:

for without me ye can do nothing.

My dear Lord Jesus search out in the inner most depths

of my soul to see if I am resting in Thee as I should.

For he that is entered into his rest,

he also hath ceased from his own works,

as God did from his.

My dear lord Jesus search out in the inner most depths

of my soul to see if I am waiting on Thee as I should.

Watch and pray,

that ye enter not into temptation:

 the spirit indeed is willing,

but the flesh is weak.

Take ye heed, watch, and pray:

for ye know not when the time is.

God’s Throne Of Grace

 - January 8, 2014

It Is There At Gods Throne Of Grace

Where I knelt before the throne of God’s Grace and,

was delivered from God’s dark Cloud of condemnation.

I came as a black hearted sinner led by the Holy Ghost.

Clothed in the filthy rags of my own self-righteousness.

It Is There At Gods Throne Of Grace

Where I knelt before the throne of God’s Grace realizing

that I was nothing more than a dirty wicked black hearted,

sinner knowing I fell far, far short of God’s glorious ways,

and I could do nothing to save myself from the Lake of Fire.

It Is There At Gods Throne Of Grace

Where I knelt before the throne of God’s, Grace that,

I cried out for God s love, grace, and mercy for I knew I

was a sinner, and could not save myself, then God in his mercy  held

out his Golden Scepter of forgiveness and made me a new creature in Christ.

It Is There At Gods Throne Of Grace

Where I knelt before the throne of God’s Grace that,

God offered to me His most precious gift “The Gift of Eternal Life,”

like a beggar with all humility I reached up and received that free gift,

now I know I have passed from the second death to life eternal.

It Is There At Gods Throne Of Grace

Where I kneel daily before the throne of God’s Grace, where,

I confess my sins with a broken spirit and contrite heart,

seeking forgiveness of my daily sins knowing in my heart, He

will forgive me so we may have sweet communion in His Word.

It Is There At Gods Throne Of Grace

Where I kneel daily before the throne of God’s Grace, where,

i come to sit at His feet to listen with rapt in His Holy,

precious Word of His glorious truths, hidden in His Precious Word,

of His glorious ways as we walk towards the golden shores of Heaven.

Those Nail Scared Hands

 - January 8, 2014

My Lord waits for me as I arise from a peaceful night,

as He watched over me as I rested from my labors.

I rejoice in the new day He has so graciously given me,

now He waits for me to walk with Him in this new day,

throughout this new day, He has so graciously given me.

May we never be guilty of spurning that nail-scarred hand.

Saying in so many words, I will walk this day alone,

grieving the heart of that nail scarred hand held out to me.

Those nail scarred hands that suffered untold pain on Calvary alone,

so that He might hold out to me a nail scarred hand to guide me.

May I arise each new day the Lord has so graciously given me,

may I reach out and place my hand in His nail Scarred Hand,

and let the Light of The World guide me safely in this Dark World.

Guide me safely through the storms of despair with thy nail Scarred Hand.

Guide me safely through the troubled waters with thy nail Scarred Hand.

May I as the days pass by and the days become weeks then months,

and the months becomes years and years become decades may I,

 become, more and more consumed in my walk with my Lord.

I must be in His Word daily to assure myself that His scarred Hand,

 will safely guide me as my steps become feebler in the sunset years of my life.

Till He calls me home to walk  there in Heaven with Him putting

my hand  in His nail scarred Hand to walk the streets,

of gold there in Heaven may we rejoice as we walk with Him.

Alone With My God And My Saviour

 - January 8, 2014

It is now the darkest hour before the breaking of dawn of a new day,

all is still as I look out of my office window to a sleeping world before me.

As I look, I lift my natural eyes and see a cloudy and stormy sky,

with my spiritual eyes, I look to the heavens beyond the stormy sky,

to a tranquil perfect place were my God and my Saviour have their abode.

I know for sure He is my God and my Precious Saviour, His Son,

because He sent His Son His Peace offering to die on the Cross for me.

I know for sure He is my God and Precious Saviour, His Son,

because His Son His Peace Offering now resides in my bosom,

to care for me, to guide me through the valleys of life.

Now as I lift my eyes towards his heaven my heart waits on Him,

as I wait, my heart meditates upon His love, grace, mercy, and goodness.

Then like a mighty river His peace floods my soul until it overflows,

causing tears of joy and thankfulness to flow like a mighty river,

down on my face until I sob with joy for His love, grace, and mercy towards me.

Of joy and thankfulness for His nail scarred hands, feet, and riven side,

a nailed scared hand He holds out to me each day, He so graciously gives me each day,

And says to me each day, put your hand in my scarred hand and let me,

guide you through this day for I know the way I want you to go,

for it might be in the valleys of trials or in victories.

With tears of joy and thankfulness as He calls me to rest in Him and in Him alone.

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart:

and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

Tears of joy and thankfulness as He calls me to abide with Him each morning, and night,

to listen with rapt awe of His wondrous ways He has for me in His Perfect Word.

To know He cares for me, like a small grain of sand in His all-seeing sight,

on the seashore of humanity, yet He cares for little me so very much,

providing all I need according to His desires for me to have.

I have tears of joy and thankfulness, as He calls me to abide in His Word,

to listen with rapt awe of what He has planned for me this day.

Yes, I know someday He will call me home, with all of His blood bought children.

In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.

I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you,

I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also

Fading Away

 - January 8, 2014

I cherish the memories of the past with my sweet Mary,

they become more precious as the days pass,

as I comfort her the very best I could,

as each day passes she slowly fades away from me.

As a new day dawns I rise to care for my Mary.

I knew not what my cares will be for that day,

but I know my heart belongs to God’s Son,

He will be there to guide me through each day.

As each day dawns I meditate in my heart,

the promises of God I claim each day,

because I have God’s Word hid in my heart,

knowing His Word will sustain me through my dark hours.

I have now only cherished memories of my Mary.

I know that someday my Saviour will call me home,

then I will be with my Saviour and my Mary,

when He will say your work is finished, come home.

Then those cherished memories will fade away,

being in the presence of my blessed Saviour and my Mary,

as I witness those nail scared hands that fade not away,

as a reminder of what it dearly cost my Saviour.

Is It Fair God?

 - January 8, 2014

Oh, Yes! For God Dearly Loves Each One Of Us

So much, He gave Himself upon Calvary’s Tree,

To give liberty from the bondage of sin to each one of us,

He became a curse for each one of us upon Calvary’s Tree.

Yes! There is no greater love when God laid down His life for us.

So we will have that sweet fellowship with God freely.

Oh, Yes! For God Knows And Feels Every Pain We Suffer

He felt the agonizing pains of a Roman whip on His Back repeatedly,

Yet He cried not out to be spared the untold pain He suffered.

He felt the agonizing pain of a Crown Of Thorns on His Scared Head,

When they smote it with a reed repeatedly causing rivelets of blood to flow,

yet He cried not out to be spared the untold pain He suffered.

He felt the agonizing pain of those nails driven into His Hands and Feet.

Yet He cried not out to be spared the untold pain He suffered.

Oh, Yes! For God Is In Control Of Every Single Human Event Of Life

He allowed Himself to be conceived in the womb of a virgin.

He humbled Himself to be born and He became the God-Man.

He allowed the cords of death to bind Him in a dark tomb,

then on the third day, He arose from that tomb victor over death, hell and the grave,

Now those who are in Christ are free from the cords of death.

Oh, Yes! For God Knows What Is Best For Each One Of Us Daily

Whether it is the valleys of despair and loneliness,

it is well, with my soul if we walk with Him daily.

Whether it is the valleys of sickness and untold pain,

it is well, with my soul if we abide in Him daily.

There is coming a glorious day with no pain, no sickness, or despair.

God Our Great Giver

 - January 6, 2014

God Who Is The Great Giver Gave us His Son.

To Shed His blood upon Calvary’s Tree,

so that we might be free from the burden of sin.

So that we might have eternal life and have a home in heaven,

if we will accept His way to His heavenly Father.

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way,

the truth, and the life: no man cometh

unto the Father, but by me.

It Is God Who Is The Great Provider Of All Blessings

He showers His own with countless blessings,

blessings that would fill countless volumes,

if we abide in Him and walk as He walked.

He that saith he abideth in him ought

himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

It Is God Who Is The Great Provider Of All Our Needs

As He Promised to provide our food and raiment,

for He Knows exactly what we need no more and no less,

to sustain our daily needs as pilgrims in this foreign land.

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you,

ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

It Is God Who Is The Great Provider Of All Healing

To those He so wills to heal by prayer,

it is the prayers of God’s Saints who are walking with Him,

to those He so wills to heal by medicines,

by giving men the wisdom to discover those healing medicines,

and to administer those healing medicines to the sick.

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you,

ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

Though very dark and seem very foreboding.

And sometimes seem close in as you tread,

down the narrow valley, they may become frightful.

Trust me, because before you I Traveled The Valleys.

Fear not the valleys of life fellow traveler,

For I know the way which leads safely through the valleys,

Though the way may seem hard and difficult my dear traveler.

Trust me, because before you I Traveled The Valleys.

So you need not fear you will not travel these valleys alone,

I know exactly when you will enter the final valley of life.

Never fear for I have traveled that valley before you.

Trust me, because before you I Traveled It Alone.

Let me lead you through the final valley of a vale or trump,

that leads to a mountaintop where a beautiful valley lies below,

us in all its beauty and grandeur with joy and glory unspeakable.

Trust me, because before you I went to prepare you a city.

A place where there are no more dark valleys of being alone,

A place where there are no more dark valleys of sorrow,

A place where there are no more dark valleys of heartache,

A place I prepared for you if you will believe on me.

Trust me, to lead to the valley there to be with Me forever.
