The poem, “Her Heart, His Throne: Honouring Women Who Truly Love The Lord , inspired by Psalm 46:5 (KJV: “God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early”), celebrates women who love the Lord. It portrays their unwavering faith, strength, and divine connection. The poem depicts a woman’s heart as a sacred space where God’s presence resides, granting her resilience against life’s storms. Her soul, described as a fortress built on grace, holds God’s love, and her faith remains unshaken. Guided by His Spirit, she rises with hope and truth, finding divine support at dawn. The poem culminates in the imagery of her heart as God’s throne, emphasizing her intimate, steadfast devotion.

For Women Who Love the Lord


God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.” (Psalm 46:5, KJV)

Within her heart, a sacred flame,
God’s presence whispers, calls her name.
She stands unyielding, firm, and tall,
For with His strength, she cannot fall.

At dawn’s first light, His mercy flows,
Through trials deep, His promise grows.
Her soul, a fortress, built on grace,
She holds the love His grace imparts.

No storm can break her steadfast trust,
Her faith a rock, untouched by dust.
With every step, His Spirit guides,
In Him, her hope forever hides.

O woman of the Lord, arise,
His truth shines bright within your eyes.
At break of day, His hand you’ll see,
God dwells in her—her heart His throne.

Summary of the Poem “Exchanging Glory for Dust: Humanity’s Descent in Pride”

The poem, inspired by Romans 1:18-25, explores the theological themes of God’s revelation through creation, humanity’s rejection of divine truth, and the resulting descent into idolatry and moral corruption. It reflects the passage’s message that God’s “eternal power and divine nature” are evident in creation (Romans 1:20), leaving humanity without excuse for denying Him. The poem portrays how people, despite knowing God, fail to glorify or thank Him (Romans 1:21), leading to futile thinking and darkened hearts. They exchange God’s glory for idols resembling “mortal human beings and birds and animals and reptiles” (Romans 1:23), choosing lies over truth (Romans 1:25). As a consequence, God gives them over to their sinful desires (Romans 1:24), resulting in spiritual and moral degradation. The poem concludes with a hopeful note, affirming the Creator’s enduring glory and love, urging a return to Him, who is “forever praised” (Romans 1:25).

The poem uses vivid imagery of nature—stars, mountains, rivers, and sun—to illustrate God’s clear revelation (Romans 1:19-20), while depicting humanity’s prideful rebellion and idolatry as a tragic fall from divine truth. It emphasizes the futility of human wisdom apart from God (Romans 1:22) and the justice of God’s response, yet ends with a call to rediscover His light and love.

Beneath the vault of heaven’s dome,
Where stars in silent chorus roam,
God’s truth is etched in every sphere,
His power sings, eternal, clear.
The mountains rise, the rivers run,
The dawn submits to blazing sun—
No voice is needed, yet they cry,
“Behold the Maker, lifted high!”

His unseen hand, His boundless might,
In woven worlds of day and night,
Declares a truth no heart denies,
Though clouded minds may close their eyes.
For what is known, God made it plain,
In whispering winds, in falling rain,
So none may stand with empty plea,
Excuseless in eternity.

Yet still the heart of man rebels,
And builds its towers, crafts its spells.
They knew the Lord, His glory grand,
Yet spurned the touch of His command.
Ungrateful, they refused His name,
No thanks arose, no praise they came.
Their thoughts grew vain, their wisdom dim,
Their souls estranged, adrift from Him.

In boasted pride, they claimed to know,
Yet sank where foolish rivers flow.
The immortal One, whose glory gleams,
Was traded for their hollow dreams.
They carved their gods from wood and stone,
Gave breath to beasts, to forms alone,
And bowed to idols, frail and small,
Forgetting Him who made them all.

So God, in justice, stepped aside,
Let loose the reins of human pride.
Their hearts, now chained to lust’s deceit,
Degraded flesh in base defeat.
The truth they knew, they cast away,
Embraced the lie, and there they stay—
Adoring what their hands have made,
While glory fades in twilight’s shade.

But still the Creator’s name endures,
His endless praise forever sure.
Though man may wander, lost, astray,
His light remains to guide the way.
O heart, return, and see the One,
Whose love outshines the rising sun!
For He, immortal, reigns above,
Forever praised, forever love.

Let Thy praise forever rise.

By Thy will they came to be.

Bound by love, in awe we stand,
Singing worthy is the Savior,
Ruler of the sea and land.

Refrain
Worthy, worthy, God Almighty,
Honor, glory, power to Thee!
All creation lifts its anthem,
Praising Thee eternally.

The poem, titled “Revelation 13:8 and 4:11: The Lamb Slain Before Time and the Worthy Creator’s Throne”, is a poetic reflection on Revelation 13:8 and Revelation 4:11, with a stronger emphasis on the latter. It intertwines the redemptive sacrifice of the Lamb, slain from the foundation of the world (Rev. 13:8), with the majestic worship of God as the Creator, worthy of glory, honor, and power for creating all things by His will (Rev. 4:11).

The poem expands on Revelation 4:11 through vivid imagery of God’s throne, the four living creatures’ ceaseless praise, and the elders casting their crowns, highlighting His sovereignty over creation. Two stanzas are dedicated to these themes, emphasizing God’s worthiness and creative power. Revelation 13:8 is woven in with references to the Lamb’s eternal sacrifice and the Book of Life, contrasting the beast’s fleeting power with the enduring redemption of the faithful. The poem concludes with a unified vision of worship, tying the Lamb’s victory to the Creator’s eternal reign. The tone is reverent, majestic, and theologically rich, balancing awe for God’s sovereignty with the hope of redemption.

Before the stars were hung, before the seas were spun,
The Lamb was slain, His blood the cost,
In the Book of Life, no name is lost.
(Rev. 13:8)
From eternity’s heart, His sacrifice planned,
To redeem the faithful from the beast’s dark hand.

Yet high above, where glory dwells,
The throne of God in splendor swells.
Four living creatures, with ceaseless voice,
Proclaim His name, in awe rejoice.
“Worthy are You, our Lord and King,
To receive all glory, let heaven sing!”
(Rev. 4:11)

By Your will, O God, all things exist,
The heavens, the earth, the seas’ soft mist.
From Your heart, creation’s pulse was born,
Each star, each soul, Your hand adorned.
Elders cast their crowns before Your throne,
Declaring Your worth, Yours and Yours alone.
(Rev. 4:11)

The beast may roar, its power may rise,
Its shadow cast beneath mortal skies.
Yet the Lamb’s own scroll, from ages past,
Holds fast the names that forever last.
(Rev. 13:8)
No force of darkness can overthrow,
The will that made all things to grow.

O Sovereign Creator, Your purpose stands,
All things are held in Your mighty hands.
The creatures cry, “Holy, worthy art Thou!”
The elders kneel, their hearts avow:
“For You created all by Your decree,
All glory, honor, and power to Thee!”
(Rev. 4:11)

O Lamb eternal, slain for our sin,
Your victory reigns where life begins.
O King of glory, whose will sustains,
All creation bows to Your endless reign.
From the throne’s bright light to the cross’s pain,
Worthy is the Lord, forever to reign.

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 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.
