A walk in the garden

Match 15 Sunday. Faith

Mth. 6:11. John. 6:31-40. 1Cor:11:23-24.

We have everything we need.

For on Jesus we feed.

The true bread of life.

Saves us from strife.

The ones the Father will choose.

Jesus will in no way lose.

Now seen to have won.

For we have believed in the Son

For as shown in communion.

In Jesus forever we are in union.

Rev. 1-4

A revelation from Jesus.

Especial for the churches.

Amazing his glory.

As he tells me the story.

With the Lord, John consults

Reveals our success and our faults

Of the strength even of the weak.

As his purpose we seek.

Yet some don’t love as once did.

Knowing what his word did forbid.

With people who deceive.

Jezebel had come to believe

Yet even then he can tell.

Some among you do well.

Yet neither cold or hot.

Is where you have got.

Our God is so holy.

My life full of folley

Yet he says come up here

You are worthy have no fear.

Lk. 17:1-19

You will be tempted still

To go against Gods will

The Lord through this has meant.

For you to come and repent.

As even in this life live.

Trust him and always forgive.

For in all that you do.

He will always love you.

Have total faith in Jesus.

So don’t let fear seize us.

So your faith can others renew.

As you are a servant too.

Then he will reveal.

How he will heal.

But not all of us.

Want to thank and cause a fuss.

Ps. 26

Lord declare me innocent

Despite where l went.

For you put me on trial.

While I served you all the while.

Refusing to stand with those.

Who your will do oppose.

I love your sanctuary Lord.

Where you can be adored.

Redeem me l pray.

As on solid ground l stay.

Prov. 7:26-27

You have always known.

The evil the world has shown.

2Kings. 24-25

Man continues to be.

Threatened by the enemy.

Refuses to live life righteously.

So ended up no longer free.

Totally now destroyed.

For the Lord had deployed.

A powerful enemy man.

To fulfil his God given plan.

Lk. 16:19-31

When feeling comfortable and rich

Ignoring the poor in the ditch.

There comes a day.

When you will say.

When you see him win.

I wish l could be like him.

In heaven not like us

For he now sits beside Jesus

Too late to make a fuss.

Ps. 24

The earth is the Lords and everything in it.

Only those who can climb his mountain are fit.

As only those who are pure.

Can be certain and sure.

To enter into his temple gates

The bible emphatically states.

The King of glory.

Opens the gates for me

My righteousness is in him.

For his Spirit lives within.

Prov. 7:24-25

For he says listen to me.

If you want to remain free.

march 12

2Kings. 21-23

When Gods people deliberately sin.

Then seek other Gods trying to win.

Favour in heaven for what they do

Totally detestable in our Gods view.

Killing those that are vulnerable.

Gods word shows how disgraceful

The chosen people have become.

But then comes a faithful one.

Who seeks to change all that.

Cleanses where we were at.

But though he followed the law

Could not their history ignore.

For knew the word did tell.

The people again would rebel.

Lord of heaven and earth annoyed.

The world will be, finally destroyed.

Lk. 16:1-18

When I hear God has rejected

Even though I feel dejected.

The only thing I know I can do.

Is seek those who are humbled too.

For forgiven they become like me.

Then the master of all sets free.

But it must still always be seen.

What the laws of God really mean.

Ps. 135

I praise the Lords name.

With those who do the same.

For Lord is seen to be good.

He cares for my neighbourhood

Has such compassion on me.

Has released me from captivity.

For in Gods grace l depend.

Knowing he is here to defend.

Praise the Lord who l have faith in.

In this new journey I now begin.

Prov. 7:21-23

If the world can seduce.

Then you will be of no use.

2Kings 18-20

So often it does seem.

The God in whom we lean

Who we have always depended on.

Yet the enemy says he has won

All the battles he has faced.

And he will easily destroy you.

You are weak and so few.

But The Lord then will say.

Because you pleaded with me today

I will defeat the enemy.

Destroying them absolutely.

Then you were told you would die.

And before the Lord did cry.

Pleading you now asked why.

Father is it possible for you to give.

Fifteen more years for me to live.

He agreed and I felt good.

Delighted as anyone would.

Proudly telling all men.

That pride the Lord did condemn.

Lk. 15:11-22

So often we are full of greed.

Want more than our presentt need.

Squander all the Lord did give.

In the way we decided to live.

But when we saw our great need

That the Lord alone could us feed

We returned humbly to him.

Who our only hope was in.

Amazing he then did restore.

Just like it was before.

Much to my brothers disgust.

Who could only see my past lust.

Ps. 27

Jesus gave salvation all my life.

He has delivered me from strife.

So why should I now feel sorry.

Despairing and full of worry.

When world seems to devour me.

For Jesus has set me free.

To live in the house of the Lord.

Where he cannot be ignored.

To be in his sanctuary

When I feel tired and weary.

Though I may now seem stationary.

I wait for the Lord patiently

Prov. 7:10-20

Don’t ever be deceived.

By those who have never believed.

When Gods people do evil.

They become feeble.

Then worship other gods.

That are all at odds.

With law God had told.

Brings the enemy into their fold.

So then came that day.

When the enemy took them away.

From Gods special space

To a far and distant place

But then came Hezekiah.

Realised the need was dire.

Turned to the Lord.

Who he worshiped and adored.

Victory became his.

He was victorious.

But realised his lack

When the enemy did attack.

Lk. 15:1-10

Even sinners come to him.

Who they believe in.

While the self-righteous say.

There is absolutely no way.

That l have the right

To be in Gods sight.

Jesus said this is not true.

When sinners just like you.

Come follow in my way.

There’s rejoicing in heaven today.

Just like when the coin is lost.

No matter the time or cost.

What fills your mind.

You must seek out and find.

What is valuable to you.

Your old faith then renew.

Ps. 112

How blessed are those.

Who God has chose.

Confidently I see.

God has blessed me.

Remembered forever now

Before God and bow.

Darkness overcome in the light.

Not acceptable in others sight.

Prov. 7-6

What seems alright to do.

Can be dangerous to you.

March 9

2Kings 13-15

As look back on kings of history.

It really is a profound mystery.

That Gods word survived at all.

As they rebelled against his call.

It is a lesson for me.

That even though seemingly.

The world is led by those.

Who in many ways oppose.

And do not live in accord.

With the word of the Lord.

God is still with me.

He controls my destiny.

Unbelievably.

I am free.

Lk. 14:25-35

Before you start, count the cost.

Otherwise you will be lost.

For to live in accord

With the will of the Lord.

Means to always have a thirst.

To put him absolutely first.

Ps. 106. :24-28

We see it all again.

We are rebellious in the main.

Though seem God to follow

Our faith in hard times is hollow.

Yet despite all that I do.

I plead and call to you.

Come Lord, come set me free.

For I praise and worship thee.

And thank your holy name.

Which heals the weak and lame.

Prov. 7:3-5

Be very deliberate.

Amongst who you sit.

John 1:1-5 Mth. 5:14-16. 1John:1

Jesus from darkness brings light.

Only he gives real insight.

A light that never will go out.

Takes away all worry and doubt.

So now our very own light.

Can the worlds darkness fight.

That others might know.

The love of Gods glow.

For we want not only to say.

But in all things display.

What we know and have seen.

For he forever has been.

The word and the light.

Revealing to us his might.

We realise the darkness we’re in.

For honestly our life is full of sin.

He came to cleanse and forgive.

Give light in the darkness we live.

march 7

2Kings 10:12

When good men get annoyed

For Gods purposes being destroyed

Flouting the will of the Lord.

And do not live in accord.

To what God expects.

It has devastating effects.

For there is no doubt.

They will be found out.

Then those who have no right.

In God or the people’s sight.

Destroy all that is then good.

In the local neighbourhood.

A small remnant remain

So that one day they reclaim

Their right to the throne.

For it was always theirs alone.

Then repairs could finally be done.

To build again Gods kingdom.

Lk. 14:15-24

How blessed to be invited in.

Where there is a feast within.

Though poor and in need.

The Lord knows l need a feed.

While those that are self- satisfied

Find their hopes have finally died.

Ps. 106:1-23

Gods faithfulness lives forever.

Though we fail he does never.

Our past failures all on display.

But even then God has his way.

He rescued and he saved.

Despite how l behaved.

Prov. 7:1-2

Lord says follow my advice.

Nothing else will suffice.

March 6

2Kings. 7-8

The Lord will end the famine.

Gods word fulfilled in him.

Our hunger and our thirst.

Filled enough to burst.

As we stand to listen.

We hear of the jesus mission.

To save and restore.

Just like it was before.

You have been appointed to fulfil.

What God has told you to do.

Lk. 14:1-14

When they are watching you.

To see what you will do.

Would it really be right.

To claim healing in their sight.

But as Lord now invites me.

Just sit with him humbly.

For God does invite.

The weak in the worlds sight.

Ps. 136:13-26

When I think of all things God has done.

The victories in my past life he has won.

Nobody will ever sever

Prov. 6:32-35

His love endures forever

I will continue to acclaim.

Victory in the Lords name.

For the man who commits adultery is a fool.

For his heart God no longer does rule.
