Josh. 11-13

When we seem to be victorious, it is then the enemy comes determined to defeat us.

But the Lord will go on ahead , so we kill each of those enemies dead.

Finally to win the war, that we had so longed for.

Now we could live in peace , our conscience finally at ease.

When all was said and done, when look back on every battle won.

Now separated in a decision , to divide promised land we live in.

Though knowing all along, among us some don’t belong.

Mk. 9:38-50

Sometimes we look to criticise and blame, when see others that also claim.

The healing power of Jesus, thinking he is special just to us.

But God says this is not true, my blessings are not exclusive to you.

What really does matter, sin that causes a believer to fall off the ladder.

No longer the salt of the earth, instead evilness in his life gives birth.

That is what needs cutting away, if the Lord is to have his perfect way.

Ps 84

How lovely Lord your dwelling place, when I have overcome each enemy l face.

I come joyfully before the Lord, though small , nothing is ignored.

Strength given to those, who come to you, for they chose.

After walking through a valley of weeping, decided to keep on keeping.

Their faith Lord in you. and see a new blessing come into view.

For every day, along the way, your goodness is on display.

I see so much grace and glory, in the Lords amazing story.

Prov. 22-24-26

Keep well away, from the doubters of today.
