It Only Works...IF...We Drink It!

E-v-e-r-y Promise from God belongs to each and every one of us but...you have to accept(believe), drink it...to have it!


Poem Artwork

I was challenged...the other day

for something that I always say;

we're all...Blessed and Highly Favored!

 

For instance, my challenger said...

the young man who shot 17 dead

he surely was not...Blessed and Highly Favored!

 

But I beg...to differ

for God is no respecter of persons

and His Promises are not in a sifter

 

Therefore, to every one of us

His vows belong ...true and free

for He sets before each...a glass full 

of sap...from Salvation's Tree

 

Thus, we are 'all' heirs

to His Eternal Words...writ

but...

it only works...if...by faith

we drink it!

 

Ps 89:15-16, Ps 5:12, Acts 10:34, Heb 10:38, Heb 11:6

Each of us has the potential for being good or bad. We have to choose the right path.

Psalm 86:15 New International Version (NIV) 15
But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God,
slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.

Why would we not want to follow a God that is compassionate, gracious, slow to anger and abounding in love and faithfulness? Yes! I will follow the Lord Jesus Christ! Thank you, Joyce! Amen!

We have to accept the truth even if we don't like it. Indeed, your image is apt. If we don't drink, we can't enjoy the blessing.

So true, Joyce! Thank you for this meditation/poem for me to reflect upon this evening.

God bless!

Love ya!
