He Is Able by Debbie Harris

Now unto him that is ABLE to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,

To the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen  Jude 24

He is able

No matter what the dream

He is able!

 

He is able

No matter how impossible

Circumstances may seem

He is able!

 

He is able to take any heart

And because of the cross

Make all things new!

He is able!

 

He is able to part the Red Sea

And see you safely and victoriously through!

He is able!

 

He is able to take the broken pieces of any life

And turn its pains

Into a masterful stained glass window

Where every crack and every stain

Is filled with the stunning beauty

And radiant light of Jesus Christ!

He is able!

 

He is able

To calm any storm in any sea

He is able!

 

He is able

To give us boldness, courage, & strength

Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego!

He is able!

 

He is able

To hear every whisper

And treat every tear

As an urgent prayer.

He is able!

 

He is able

To stop the mouths of lions

In any lion’s den.

He is able!

 

He is able

To give us His most excellent and precious spirit

To lead us in all our ways

In these most challenging days.

He is able!

 

He is able

To give us Heavenly wisdom

At any moment of any day

He is able!

 

He is able

To turn any nation

Back to Christ again

He is able!

 

He is able

To roll away any stone

He is able!!

 

He is able

To go before us,

To go behind us,

To work within us,

To be with us,

To surround us,

To support us,

To still  and calm every anxiety and every fear

With His most tender care!!

He is able!

 

Is this not the angelic cadence of triumph

That is heard in heaven everywhere?

Can you hear it?

The glory of the eternal song echoes

Through streets of gold

And permeates New Jerusalem!!

Is this not the heavenly chorus angels’ sing

Midst the rush of gemstone studded wings

Around the throne room of the King of Kings?

He is able!

He is able!

He is able!

He is able!

And He alone is worthy of

All our praise,

All our worship,

All our adulation!

In This World There Will Be Thorns, But In Heaven, A Crown by Debbie Harris

29 Friday May 2020

Posted by Debbie Harris in Christian Poetry

≈ Leave a comment

    In this world there will be thorns, for our precious Savior

    told those who are redeemed this would indeed be so.

    Ahh but in Heaven, our true eternal home we will

    all receive rewards and crowns because of our love

    for our Savior, how we lived, and what we have done.

    So when thorny wounds caused by this thorn filled

    world are allowed by our all knowing Father we must

    all focus on our eternal home where there will be no

    more tears, cruelty, injustice, slander or thorns but ceaseless,

    joy, hope, love, light, and Heavenly crowns. For our hope is not

    in this sin-filled, ever darkening world. Our hope is in seeing our

    glorious Savior and friend face to face who will ceaselessly delight,

    value, and adore equally each and every precious Saint for all of eternity.

    Such a privilege and an

    expectantly thrilling hope

    to pray for the impossible

    by bold and courageous faith.

    Start dreaming, start praying

    for our Triune God is the author

    of making the impossible, possible

    according to His perfect, Holy, majestic,

    omniscient, and sovereign plan!

    Memorial Day Tribute by Debbie Harris

    25 Monday May 2020

    Posted by Debbie Harris in Christian Poetry

    ≈ Leave a comment

    Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the nation whose God is the Lord, The people whom He has chosen as His own inheritance.

    Psalm 33:12 (AMB)

    100635339_3570091746340681_1872498787780395008_n

    For those precious, irreplaceable souls

    who courageously, boldly, and bravely

    fought for our God-given freedom, our

    liberties, our God-given inalienable rights

    we forever honor you on this momentous day.

    May we always stand and honor our flag. May we

    enjoy our freedoms and live honorably. For freedom

    is the gift and ultimate sacrifice they died for!

    May we always run towards all such heroes and

    heroines and thank them with sincere and heartfelt

    gratitude, thanks,  and praise! May we embrace and honor

    those families whose ultimate sacrifice is their precious

    sons and daughters! May we always honor our fallen

    by defending our beloved blood-bought constitution.

    May we because of their ultimate sacrifice continue

    to honor, uphold, and reverence, God, family, and

    country! May we forever lift up the source, author

    of all truth, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. May we

    with reverence always live out the Holy inerrant

    words of our blessed and precious Triune God who

    is the glorious and only true source of all true freedom.

    On this day and every day may we honor all those who

    died and gave their lives for the gift of freedom. And may

    we above all honor our Triune God! For blessed is the nation

    whose God is the Lord. For blessed fortunate, prospered, favored

    of God is the nation whose God is the Lord, whose God is the Lord!

    God’s Pearl by Debbie Harris

    When the royally redeemed new creature

    sees the whole world system as wobbly,

    sin-filled, corrupt, unsteady, unstable, shaky,

    rocky, flimsy, frail, precarious, tremulous

    this is when the world becomes like grains

    of  sand to the authentic Christian. And we,

    because of God’s refining Heavenly process,

    become God’s perfect, priceless, precious pearl.

    There Is A Christ-Given Longing, An Exhilarating Expectation, A Prophetic Crescendo, A Yearning, A Divine And Holy Thirst by Debbie Harris

    rapture

     

    Like the thrilling moment when Spring and all it’s Christ-created

    beauty comes forth and is resurrected from its winter filled rest, in

    all the world we see a hoping, a Christ-given longing, an exhilarating

    expectation, a prophetic crescendo,a yearning, a divine and Holy thirst,

    that perhaps at any moment our blessed hope could come and take us

    gloriously home to a ceaseless, eternal, fragrant, forever Springtime always

    blooming with incorruptible resurrection, hope, love, and joy. For then we

    will see our precious Savior face to face and all our faith will become sight

    as we see Father, Son,and Holy Spirit in all their beauty-filled, ceaseless,

    majestic splendor-filled glory. There is a Christ-given longing, an exhilarating

    expectation, a prophetic crescendo, a yearning, a divine and Holy thirst that

    perhaps at any moment our blessed hope could come in a twinkling of an eye

    and take us gloriously home! Even so, come, Lord Jesus! Even so, come!

    In Our Ardent Search For Wordly Relevance Have Christians Become Biblically Irrelevant? by Debbie Harris

    20 Wednesday May 2020

    Posted by Debbie Harris in Christian Poetry

    ≈ Leave a comment

    In our ardent search for wordly relevance have Christians

    become Biblically irrelevant because they look more like

    the world than the majestic, Holy, Christ-centered faithful,

    inerrant, word, love, and truth centered church?

    In our ardent search for worldly relevance have

    Christians become Biblically irrelevant? May our 

    faithfulness and our love for Jesus Christ, His most

    precious inerrant word, His Biblical, majestic, Holy ways,

    and lavish love for each other make each of us Biblically

    relevant during these sobering, lamentable, exciting,

    uncertain, perilous, Gospel rich, yet prophetic days.

    By Faith And Obedience, May We All Pursue Heaven’s Imperishable Crowns by Debbie Harris

    17 Sunday May 2020

    Crown

    By faith we know our God is the

    true rewarder to all those who

    diligently seek Him with all

    their hearts, souls, and minds.

    For we choose not to seek the

    perishable. perilous earthly

    rewards of power, pleasure

    fame or riches of this world.

    No we choose better rewards,

    the divine, Heavenly imperishable,

    eternal rewards given to us by

    Jesus Christ, our glorious King!

    May we keep our eyes on our

    eternal prizes, Heaven’s crowns

    given to us by our all in all, our

    Saviour, our Redeemer, our

    truest and most faithful friend!

    May we all pursue with all our

    hearts, souls, minds to hear

    our Savior say to us, Well done

    thou good and faithful servant!

    May this be the prize we seek.

    So until then, by eternal, glorious,

    royal faith and obedience may we

    all pursue to make Him known and thus

    receive Heaven’s imperishable crowns!

    The Lord Is With You Like A Mighty Warrior by Debbie Harris

    17 Sunday May 2020

    maxresdefault

    The Lord your God is with you the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.

    Zephaniah 3:17  (NIV)

    But the Lord is with me like a mighty warrior; so my persecutors will stumble and not prevail. They will fail and be thoroughly disgraced; their dishonor will never be forgotten.

    Jeremiah 20:11 (NIV)

    The Lord is a warrior; The Lord is His name.

    Exodus 15:3 (KJV)

    The Lord will go forth like a warrior, He will arouse His zeal like a man of war. He will utter a shout, yes, He will raise a war cry. He will prevail against His enemies.

    Isaiah 42:3 (KJV)

     

    Warrior on in mercy!

    Warrior on in grace!

    Warrior on in love!

    Warrior on in patience!

    Warrior on in faith!

    Warrior on in hope!

    Warrior on in peace!

    Warrior on in long-suffering!

    Warriors on in gentleness!

    Warrior on in meekness,

    Warrior on in goodness!

    Warrior on in self-control.

    Warrior on in proclaiming

    His glorious eternal salvation!

    Warrior on for Jesus Christ,

    soldier and warrior of eternal,

    ceaseless and everlasting hope!

    Warrior on until He gloriously

    comes to take us to our eternal

    home! Warrior on! Warrior on!
