The Holy Nimbuses are just tarnished halos of fool’s gold!

With assistance of the Holy Spirit,
compelling achievements will be seen;  
supernatural strength is available to…
overcome the nonsense of human routine.

As His responsible Christians today,
we must mature and have understanding
of the authority and power given us
by Christ, to address Life’s demanding.

When we have not, it’s the direct result
of not asking for… what we really need.  
Working from our natural strength fails,
and we will be trampled by sin’s stampede.

The fleshly combination of impure motives
and one’s selfish, wrong timing for results  
will keep one ensnared in Satan’s traps-
insuring the onslaught of ongoing assaults

that interfere with one’s divine purpose.
Prayer remains a violent, spiritual force
that interrupts the enemies’ plan against us.
We have a High Priest who keeps us on course-

One Who understands our weaknesses, infirmities
and the God-given abilities for Kingdom victory!
Come boldly now, to the heavenly throne of Grace;
enable your faith with prayer and learn to see

that Faith only works by the power of His Love.
Be anxious for nothing, with real thanksgiving
and let your specific requests be known by Him.
Only in His Name, can we achieve… greater things!

Not paralyzed with constraints of obligation,
I’m able to converse with my Lord on any topic.  
Towards me, His ongoing Love is without reserve;
new mercies flow- with a Grace that is melodic.

Inside each of us, is a God-shaped hole,
which can be satisfied by Him exclusively;
nothing in Life is off-limits with Jehovah,
for He alone examines our hearts and sees

what is invisible to others- inner desires
to drawer closer in relationship with Him!
Empowered through my oneness with God, my…
soul is unconcerned about Life growing thin.

Mindsets of ‘Secular versus Sacred’ attitudes,
will diminish my joy and impact my victories-
since He involved with details of daily living,
I can still overcome the past of my history.

Two keys for intimacy with God are well known:
grasping His Truth and spending personal time
with Him and His Word regularly, in order to…
reach the peak of: Faith’s mountainous climb.

God’s compassion is directed outwardly,
while self-pity is an ugly form of idolatry.
Abject misery will be guaranteed, when…
you’re centered on the selfish ego of “me”!

If you’re focused on your own misfortunes,
then you’re going to miss out on blessings;
concepts of personal happiness are fleeting;
therefore, realize what makes hearts sing

with an everlasting, unadulterated joy!
Ministering to others creates opportunities
for spiritual harvests in the lives of others,
but it requires a humbled spirit to see

the hand of God at work within His Kingdom.
Unresolved issues -anger, offense, and strife-
open empty doors to major disappointments
and insure the consequence of an unhappy life.

Being too tired and not resting enough ensures
that you’ll observe your daily lack of abundance;  
enjoy quiet time for prayer and self-reflection,
to gain proper eyesight for your circumstance!

O Lord, perfect Your sacred Love in me;
show me how to have the proper boldness
for conducting myself humbly each day;
only a covering of Your righteousness

will allow me to enjoy Your new mercies.
Teach me to appreciate Your divine Grace;  
please insure that I’m not after Your hands
of blessing, but that I’m seeking Your face.

I’m diligently feasting on Your Holy Word;
sate my spiritual hunger and thirst for You!  
You are the Bread of Life and Living Water;
I’ve experienced that Your promises are true!

Let me be fully consumed with Your Presence,
whereby I live as a Your, poetic work of art;
O Lord, when my trust rests in You alone,
I possess a peaceful and untroubled heart.

What are we really looking to receive?
Is it: Money, Fame, Success, or Promotion?
Secret lusts of the heart create problems;
are we willing to risk, His Salvation?

Living to get things will never satisfy;
without proper priorities and pursuits,
righteousness, peace and joy isn’t obtained.
Knowing your identity in Him, His fruit,

mercy and grace becomes obviously evident.
Seeking His face will insure that His hand  
remains open towards those desiring Him.
However, are we doing what He had planned?

Are we delighting ourselves in Him alone?
Are the goals of God, something we discuss?
He always should be the King of our Life
and the Kingdom that is… inside each of us.

The written Word of God is complete,
with multiple layers of understanding;
however, only a hungry heart can plumb
the Biblical depths with His assistance.  

There must be an inner desire, replete
with knowledge that’s divinely expanding  
my vision of purpose; don’t let me be dumb.
Breakdown my barriers of human resistance.

Stay within my heart; kick down its door,  
teach me Thy lessons, so I’m not perplexed;
enable my existence to grasp and really see
messages from the eternal, Kingdom above.

Translations instruct me how to explore
deeper within hidden meanings of holy text;
with Your Holy Spirit, softly reveal to me
the whole, unedited Truth of… Your Love.
