The poem, titled “The Eternal Treasury of Jesus Christ, Who Meets Every Need with Unfailing Grace”, conveys a spiritual message rooted in the belief that Jesus Christ, rather than material wealth, is the true source of provision and fulfillment. It rejects the prosperity gospel’s focus on earthly riches, emphasizing instead Christ’s promise to meet all needs with divine grace, regardless of a person’s status, as He is “no respecter of persons.” The poem contrasts the arrogance of the wealthy, who scorn the needy, with the humble faithfulness of those who toil yet face lack. It uplifts these struggling individuals, assuring them that Jesus sees their efforts and provides peace, guidance, and eternal hope. Through vivid imagery, the poem celebrates Christ’s boundless love and grace as the ultimate treasure, surpassing worldly wealth and sustaining the faithful through life’s challenges.

Not in gold’s gleam or wealth’s proud sway,
Does the heart of Jesus promise to pay.
No prosperity gospel, no fleeting gain,
But a deeper truth through trial and pain.

He sees the weary, the ones who strive,
Whose honest toil keeps hope alive.
The rich may sneer, with haughty gaze,
Blind to the meek who walk Christ’s ways.

For Jesus, the Treasury, boundless, true,
Meets every need with grace anew.
No respecter of persons, His love extends,
To the humble soul where pride descends.

To those who labor, yet still lack,
Who bear their burdens on a rugged track,
He lifts their eyes to a wealth unseen,
A kingdom’s promise, eternal, serene.

In Christ alone, their needs are met,
Not with riches the world begets.
But peace, provision, a steady hand,
Guiding the faithful to the promised land.

So rise, you striving, your hearts uphold,
For Jesus’ love is worth more than gold.
He sees, He knows, He’ll never fail,
His boundless grace will always prevail.

The poem, titled “God’s Intervention at Butler: Trump’s Triumph To Bring Back a Holy Nation”, recounts the miraculous survival of former President Donald Trump during an assassination attempt on July 13, 2024, in Butler, Pennsylvania. It depicts the event as divine intervention, with God’s protection sparing Trump through a providential head turn that narrowly avoided a fatal bullet. The poem emphasizes Trump’s ordained mission to lead the nation toward spiritual renewal, unifying it as a faith-driven, holy nation. Through vivid imagery and a tone of reverence, it portrays the crowd’s awe, the sacredness of the moment, and Trump’s role in restoring the nation’s godly foundation. The poem culminates in a vision of Trump triumphantly guiding the country back to being one nation under God, blessed by divine grace.

In Butler’s fields, where shadows fell,
God’s hands did guard, a tale to tell.
July’s fierce sun saw evil’s aim,
Yet divine will denied its claim.

A shot rang out, through chaos torn,
But Trump, by grace, was spared, reborn.
A turn of head, a moment’s chance,
God’s shield upheld in that swift glance.

The bullet grazed, yet could not claim,
The man ordained to fan the flame.
To lead our land, with faith renewed,
One nation blessed by God’s own heart.

The crowd stood hushed, hearts raised in prayer,
For mercy shown, for life still there.
In Butler’s name, the truth resounds,
God’s hands protected sacred grounds.

To save our nation, make it whole,
One nation under God’s own soul.
Through Trump, the path to light is clear,
By heaven’s will, he triumphs here.

The Victory of the Eternal Lord: A Poem from Colossians 1:17-23 by Debbie Harris

The poem, inspired by Colossians 1:17-23, is a triumphant, image-rich celebration of Christ’s supremacy, sacrificial victory, and reconciling work. It portrays Christ as the preeminent Lord who created and sustains all things—mountains, oceans, stars—ruling with sovereign might. He descends to the cross, where His blood defeats sin and death, transforming the cross into a throne of triumph. Once estranged, humanity is redeemed through His sacrifice, made blameless before God. The gospel spreads like a roaring flame across the earth, proclaiming His victory. The poem closes with a jubilant call to worship Christ, the everlasting King, whose reign and redemption are eternal. The tone is bold and victorious, using vivid, concrete imagery (e.g., thundering oceans, blazing mercy) to evoke awe, for a grounded, biblical feel.

Before the heavens stretched their frame,
Before the dawn spoke forth His name,
Christ stood, the Lord, the mighty One,
Who forged the stars, who lit the sun.
Mountains rise at His decree,
Oceans thunder, wild and free.
All things in Him find strength to stand,
Held fast within His sovereign hand.

He reigns as First, o’er life and death,
The source of every living breath.
In Him, God’s fullness dwells and shines,
His glory breaks through mortal lines.
Angels kneel where anthems soar,
Proclaiming Him forevermore.
From earth’s deep roots to heaven’s height,
He rules with uncreated might.

Yet see the King descend to save,
To storm the darkness of the grave.
On that grim cross, where blood was spilled,
Where wrath and love in battle thrilled,
His sacrifice tore down the wall,
Restoring life to Adam’s fall.
The wood, a throne of triumph high,
Defies the serpent’s ancient lie.

Once we were lost, rebels astray,
Our hearts in chains, our skies turned gray.
But Christ, the Victor, broke our night,
His mercy blazed with holy light.
His blood has washed our guilt away,
And bids us stand in endless day.
Redeemed, we rise, made pure, made whole,
Blameless before His glorious soul.

The gospel roars like lion’s might,
Its truth a flame that splits the night.
From village dust to city gates,
Its hope in every heart awaits.
No tongue, no land, can silence this,
The story of redeeming bliss.
Through all the earth, His name resounds,
A victory song that shakes the grounds.

O risen Lord, forever reign!
Your throne above all powers remain.
The cross has crushed the foe’s design,
Your blood has made the nations Thine.
We lift our voice, we bow, we sing,
All hail the everlasting King!

The Eternal Lament of a Soul Snared by a Gospel That Hid the Cross by Debbie Harris

Summary of “The False Light”

The poem narrates the tragic journey of a soul deceived by a false gospel, leading to eternal damnation. The soul, trusting in a seemingly comforting doctrine that emphasizes good deeds over true faith, lives devoutly, unaware of the gospel’s flaws. Upon death, expecting heaven, they awaken in hell’s torment, betrayed by the misleading teachings that omitted the necessity of Christ’s sacrifice. The poem explores themes of spiritual deception, the consequences of false beliefs, and the importance of seeking truth to avoid eternal loss. It concludes with a warning to discern the true gospel, lest a distorted faith lead to ruin.

Beneath a sky of woven lies,
A soul walked sure with trusting eyes.
The gospel sung in honeyed tones,
Carved paths of peace on sacred stones.
“Be good, be kind, and you shall win,
The gates of gold will let you in.”

Through years of prayer and gentle deeds,
They sowed their hopes like mustard seeds.
No shadow crept to warn, to tell,
The road they trod led straight to hell.
The preacher’s voice, so warm, so clear,
Hid thorns of truth they’d never hear.

The final breath, a whispered hymn,
The light of life grew soft, then dim.
They reached for heaven’s promised glow,
But found a fire they didn’t know.
A realm of wails, of gnashing pain,
Where mercy’s touch would never reign.

“Why here?” they cried, to ashen skies,
No angel came to dry their eyes.
The gospel false, a cunning snare,
Had cloaked the truth in pious air.
No cross of blood, no sin confessed,
Left chains unbroken, unaddressed.

O soul, beware the words that gleam,
That twist the light to fit a dream.
For truth, though sharp, will set you free,
While lies bind fast eternity.
Seek now the Word that cuts, that saves,
Lest false gospels dig your grave.

God’s Anathema Upon Churches Preaching a False Gospel Leading Souls to Perdition by Debbie Harris

, , , , , , , , , , , ,

The poem warns of God’s anathema (divine curse) on churches that preach a false gospel, deviating from the true, biblical message of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. It portrays liberal churches as distorting scripture with softened teachings, leading souls toward spiritual ruin and eternal perdition. Using vivid imagery of clouded skies, dimming light, and hell’s deceptive gates, the poem contrasts the pure gospel’s clarity with the dangers of falsehood. It urges churches to hold fast to untainted truth, emphasizing God’s resolute judgment and the dire consequences for those who mislead the flock. The tone is somber yet urgent, reflecting evangelical concerns about doctrinal purity and the eternal fate of souls.

Beneath the spire, where voices rise,
A gospel sounds, but clouds the skies.
The Word, once sharp as heaven’s sword,
Is bent, reshaped, its truth ignored.

The Shepherd’s call, so clear, so free,
“By grace, through faith, come unto Me.”
Yet some would weave a softer tale,
Where truth dissolves, and souls may fail.

Anathema, the Lord’s decree,
A holy wrath none dare foresee.
For those who twist His sacred plea,
And lead the flock where none should be.

The gates of hell, with subtle guise,
Wear mercy’s mask in preacher’s eyes.
But light grows dim, the path descends,
Where falsehood reigns, and hope pretends.

Oh, church, beware the siren’s art,
That strays the soul and breaks the heart.
The Gospel’s flame, unyielding, bright,
Must guide the lost through endless night.

God’s voice resounds, His verdict sure,
“Hold fast My truth, untainted, pure.”
Lest anathema’s weight befall,
And souls be lost beyond recall.

The poem is a heartfelt prayer for the victims of devastating floods in Texas, where many families and young children lost their lives. It calls on the Lord to wrap His comforting arms around those grieving, offering solace and peace to ease their profound sorrow. The verses seek divine strength to mend broken hearts, restore hope, and provide refuge for those affected by the tragedy.

In Texas, where the waters raged,
Families and young ones, lives upstaged,
Hearts now heavy, torn by loss,
Grieving ‘neath the flood’s cruel cross.

Lord, wrap Your arms around each soul,
Whose light was dimmed, whose days were stole.
Hold tight the children, families gone,
In Your embrace, where love lives on.

Through sorrow’s weight, through endless tears,
Be near to calm their deepest fears.
In shattered homes, where silence dwells,
Let Your peace in broken hearts swell.

For those who mourn, for lives so brief,
Send comfort strong to ease their grief.
Cradle them in Your boundless care,
Till hope returns, and hearts repair.

Amen.

Divine Mercy Unbound: A Poetic Meditation on Romans 11:6 and the Triumph of Grace Over Works by Debbie Harris

Based on Romans 11:6 (KJV): And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

The sonnet, inspired by Romans 11:6, explores the concept of divine grace as a free gift from God, unearned by human works. It emphasizes that salvation comes through faith alone, not through human effort or adherence to the law, which cannot overcome sin. The poem highlights God’s mercy, the sufficiency of Christ’s sacrifice, and the futility of boasting in personal deeds. It concludes by urging reliance on grace, with glory given solely to Christ.

If grace be grace, it comes not by our deed,
For works would bind what freely God bestows.
His mercy flows where human efforts cede,
A gift divine no labor can compose.
No boast of man can claim salvation’s crown,
Nor hands of flesh weave righteousness to wear.
By faith alone His favor doth abound,
A love unearned, yet boundless in its care.
The law’s demand, though just, could ne’er suffice,
For sin’s deep stain no mortal toil can clear.
But God’s elect, through grace, receive the price,
His Son’s own blood, to draw the chosen near.
So let us rest in grace, and works forsake,
For Christ’s alone the glory we partake.
