three men

three men stood,
while others bowed.
the kings statue
had wowed the crowd


why do you stand?
fall on your knees,
to the statue bow,
that is the kings plan.

we shall not bow
or bend a knee
we only bow
to one who is holy

the king said
if you do not show
respect to me
into the furnace
you will go

if me you deny
then you will fry

OH king to a idol
made by hand
we cannot bow
but only stand

we worship our true God
who made land and sea
of our praise
he is worthy

into the firey furnace
they did go
when th e fire did not
burn
their faith did grow

the king said
look there
another man is in there
with the face of God

the king said
come out of there
they never got burned
nor singed their hair

God will still work
in your life today
if to him you take
your problems
when you pray

mayters

They lined them up,
one by one.
they gave them a choice
denounce the Lord
or be killed by the gun.

One girl said,
Kill me now,
I will never give up
my Jesus,
No way No how.

When all was said,
and the deed was done.
Not one beleiver left standing,
not even one.

Entered Heaven,
great rejoicing and singing,
WELCOME HOME
No more to wander
no more to roam.

a second of pain
for heaven to gain

a faith to stand
no matter the blow
a faith to stand
no matter the foe

To cling to Christ
through all the pain
to run the race
and finish in the heavenly place

abba

abba do you care
i look for you
you are not there
when in doubt
you are not about

abba you left me
what will the man i am
turn out to be

a father who turns his back
leaving a son
that needs a man in his life

i only know if i am like you
a family i will not have

my son will see Jesus in me
he will know i care
i will be there

on me my wife can depend
i will never be your kind of man

so fathers think before you go

SUICIDE

su
ch a very selfish thing taking your life and leaving others the pain
is it a sin, yes if well thought about and all things planned but, will it keep us from heaven
God is the judge of that, do we commit suicide when we smoke, or if we eat to fattness how about never excercizing and just sitting in front of tv
are we all not on a road to death, yes but, there are ways of hastening our death so how can
we say that suicide is going to send you to hell
God has a reason for your life and he did not create you to take your life into your hands
but only he has a say over heaven and hell

today november 28 2008 i am in ft wayne indiana at a national day of prayer for foursquare church led by pastor Jack Hayford In the sanucary the holy spirit moved and people were
crying and singing and just enjoying being in the precense of God When God is in the room
the emotion is high
Is God an emotional God, yes yes yes, he created man, which means he created in us feelings
a great capacity of love and our emotional side so yes he uses feeling emotions and other ways to
get in contact with those who worship him

LIFE IS HARD

Life is hard and each day we face work, worry and some small happiness if we are lucky,
why God why do we face what we do.
Maybe we need to look within, did I do what will bring a good life?? Did I wait to get married
did I save myself for my true love?? Did I live like a holy person would, meaning did I give
and help others, did I budget my money and not waste it, (wasting a blessing) did I obey
the law?? Did I stay sober or was I doing my body harm?? Do we get in trouble through sin
then say Father why don't you help, you made me, you know I am weak in this area??
How much better life would be if we just love the Lord and do his will, we will be better
for it.

fire

fire burns and destroys
leaving nothing but ash.
nothing but a smoldering
ruin

fire is a destoyer
that knows no stopping

fire also refines
it makes gold
lose its impurities

silver is also
sent through the fire

so when we go through
the tough times
remember God may
be refining you

purifying you for service
