Christian Poetry, Creation, Inspirational

In dawn’s first blush where golden rivers run,
The Master’s hand unfurls the rising sun—
A canvas vast, with clouds of silken fire,
Each ray a thread of heaven’s pure desire.

The mountains rise like ancient guardians tall,
Their peaks etched sharp against the sapphire wall;
With forests cloaked in emerald velvet deep,
Where whispers weave through boughs in slumber sweet.

The ocean sings in waves of turquoise grace,
A symphony of foam and vast embrace;
Beneath its breast, the coral gardens bloom,
Like jeweled cities from a monarch’s loom.

The fragile rose, in petals soft as prayer,
Unfolds her heart with fragrance rich and rare;
A butterfly, with wings of stained-glass light,
Dances on winds that bless the morning bright.

The stars at dusk, a diamond-studded veil,
Scatter their secrets where the nightingales
Pour forth their souls in melodies divine,
As moonlight bathes the world in silver shine.

From tiniest seed that cracks the earthen floor,
To eagle soaring where the tempests roar—
Each atom hums with purpose, pure and true,
A living poem etched by hands anew.

No flaw escapes the eye of perfect Love;
All things reflect the glory from above.
In every breath, in every leaf and stone,
We see the Artist’s signature—His own.

For what our Creator weaves in timeless art
Is masterpiece eternal, pure and whole—
A rhyme of wonder, beauty without end,
Where earth and sky in sacred chorus blend.

The Counter-Cultural Pilgrim: A Declaration of Unyielding Commitment to the Word of God Alone, Where One Soul Bows to Nothing — Only Scripture’s Throne by Debbie Harris

The Counter-Cultural Pilgrim: A Declaration of Unyielding Commitment to the Word of God Alone, Where One Soul Bows to Nothing — Only Scripture’s Throne

In ages marked by every shifting breeze,
Where voices loud proclaim what feels most right,
One soul rejects the crowd and bends no knee—
They stand upon the ancient Word of light. 

No fleeting trend shall sway their heart or hand,
No cultural wave shall sweep their soul aside;
They plant their feet upon the Rock, unyielding stand,
Where truth eternal shall forever bide. 

They chase the golden calf of modern thought,
And bow before the idols shaped by pride;
Yet this one clings to what the Scriptures taught,
Though all the world may mock and turn aside. 

Let fashions fade and empires rise and fall,
Let doctrines soft replace the sword and fire;
Their life shall answer only Heaven’s call—
Sola Scriptura is their one desire. 

When culture cries “Conform!” with urgent plea,
And pressures mount to compromise the way,
They lift their eyes to Christ who set them free,
And walk the counter-cultural path each day. 

No compromise, no middle ground they’ll take,
No watered truth to soothe the itching ear;
For in the Book alone their rest they make,
And find the strength to persevere. 

O Lord, keep pure this heart that seeks Your face,
Refine their steps by every line You wrote;
Make them a light in this rebellious place—
A soul that bows to nothing — only Scripture’s throne.

An Exhortation to the Wayward Church: Repent and Turn to Christ the Living Word, That Streams of Living Water May Cause the Desert to Bloom and the House of God to Stand by Debbie Harris

Biblical Truth, Christian Poetry, Inpirational, Inspirational

In halls once hallowed by the sacred page,
Where prophets’ fire and apostles’ zeal held sway,
Now echoes ring with fashions of the age,
And timid tongues let ancient truths decay. 

The Word of God, a lamp to guide the feet,
A sword to pierce the heart of sin and pride,
Lies dusty on the shelf, its edge grown sweet
With honeyed words that soothe where wounds abide. 

They chase the wind of justice newly wrought,
Of feelings high and doctrines bent to please;
Yet spurn the Rock on which the Church was bought,
And trade the eternal for the passing breeze. 

O shepherds blind, who lead the flock astray,
Repent! Turn back to Christ the living Word.
For when the ancient Truth is cast away,
The house of God becomes a hollow cry. 

Awake, ye saints! Repent and turn to Christ the Word—
That makes the desert bloom with living streams.

Jesus Christ: Our True Wealth, Victory, and Eternal Hope by Debbie Harris

Biblical Truth, Christ Centered Devotionals, Christian Poetry, Inpirational, Inspirational, Royally Redeemed, theology

Jesus Christ is our wealth,
Our success, our victory, our hope.
Not golden streets or treasures untold,
But in Him our every need is met.
He clothes the lilies, feeds the sparrows,
Holds the stars and stills the sea.
So why should we chase empty shadows
When the Giver of life lives in you and me?
Riches may come, or riches may flee,
Yet in Christ we lack for nothing.
His grace is enough, His strength is our song,
In every storm, in every testing.
He is the Bread that satisfies,
The Living Water, pure and free.
All that the world could never buy
Is ours in Him—eternally.
Jesus Christ is our wealth,
Our success, our victory, our hope.
This truth the faithful heart receives:
In Him we triumph—forever victorious!

The Demonic Snake of Progressivism by Debbie Harris

Biblical Truth, Christian Poetry, Inpirational, Inspirational

In silken coils the serpent lies,
Its scales aglow with stolen light.
It whispers lies to open eyes:
“Old chains are wrong—forget the Christ.”
It sheds its skin with every age,
Discards the Cross like worthless dust.
It feeds on pride, on guilt, on rage,
And calls its poison “righteous trust.”
It twists through laws and schools and screens,
Rewriting truth with clever guile.
It mocks the King who died for sins
And builds its throne on human denial.
Yet every vow of perfect peace
Brings sharper fangs and tighter chains.
It speaks of love but will not cease
To crush the souls the Savior claims.
It promises a future bright,
While choking roots that lead to grace.
It slithers on through endless night,
Defying Him who took our place.
The Lamb who conquered death and grave
Exposes every twisted lie.
His blood alone has power to save—
The serpent’s venom cannot vie.
Beware the snake that never sleeps,
That beauty hides its ancient spite.
It offers heaven, yet it reaps
The ruin of the souls Christ bought with life.
Its name is sweet, its venom cold—
Progressivism, crowned in gold.
But those who cling to Christ, the bold,
See only darkness losing hold.
For Jesus reigns, the Serpent’s head
Was crushed beneath His righteous feet.
In Him alone is freedom spread—
The final victory is complete.

Great Is Thy Faithfulness: The Triumphant Hymn of New Mercies Revealed in Jesus Christ by Debbie Harris

Lamentations 3:22-23 (KJV)
It is of the LORD’S mercies that we are not consumed,
because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning:
great is thy faithfulness

In the shadowed vale where ruin’s ashes lie,
Where Jerusalem weeps beneath a starless sky,
And exile’s bitter gall floods the weary breast,
Yet rises there a hymn from the prophet’s chest:
“Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,”
Though tempests rage and empires lie entombed;
His compassions, like eternal rivers, flow,
Unfailing as the tides that come and go.
They are new every morning—fresh as dew
That pearls upon the lily white as snow,
Or dawn’s first blush that gilds the eastern height,
Banishing the specters of the night.
Great is Thy faithfulness, O God most high!
A steadfast anchor when all hopes run dry;
Thy mercies, like the manna white and pure,
Descend anew, our faltering faith to cure.
In ancient cadence, like the psalms of old,
Where David sang of mercies manifold,
Or prophets traced redemption’s grand design,
This truth outshines every faith’s most sacred rite:
Thy love, a golden thread through sorrow’s loom,
Weaves hope eternal from the grave’s dark gloom.
When nights of lament stretch long and deep,
Thy morning mercies bid the soul to leap—
Victorious, triumphant, rising ever higher,
Igniting hearts with resurrection fire!
O faithful One, whose compassions never cease,
Renew us daily in Thy perfect peace;
That in every season, we may boldly proclaim:
Great is Thy faithfulness—forever the same,
In Jesus Christ, the living source of mercy true,
Whose ceaseless grace and faithfulness make all things new!

A Solemn Call to Reprove the Unfruitful Works of Darkness: A Poetic Reflection on Ephesians 5:11 and the Danger of Cultural Compromise in the Church by Debbie Harris

In Scripture’s pages rings the clear command:
“Have no part with the fruitless deeds of night;
Instead, expose and firmly take your stand,
Reprove the darkness with the truth’s pure light.”
Once we were lost within that shadowed reign,
But grace has called us now as children bright,
To walk as those whom Christ has made again,
And shine His goodness in this present fight.

No partnership with works that bear no fruit,
No quiet truce with what the Lord condemns;
The creeping creed that wears a virtuous suit
Has slipped inside the church and twisted hymns.
It calls for union with what God rejects,
Affirms the sin that Scripture plainly names,
Redefines the marriage bond and sex,
And hides division underneath kind claims.

Awake, O sleeper, rise from death’s cold sleep,
Let Christ’s own radiance fall upon your eyes;
Expose the hidden shame that lies so deep,
That souls may turn, repent, and truly rise.
Reprove the errors of this passing age,
That place mere culture over timeless Word;
No pact with thoughts that war against the page
Where cross and blood alone are truly heard.

Stand firm, believers, in these evil days,
Discern what pleases Him who rules above;
Walk wisely, making time your friend always,
And let the fruit of light reveal His love.
For righteousness and truth will long endure,
While darkness fades before the coming Judge;
When every hidden work is brought to view,
The light will triumph and the false will budge.

O Church of Christ, be bold to speak and shine,
Reprove, expose, with love and truth aligned;
No compromise with darkness, false and fine—
Proclaim the gospel, rescue heart and mind.
Thus shall the sleeper wake, the dead arise,
And Christ will shine where once the shadows fell;
The fruitless works will wither in His skies,
And souls redeemed will sound His praise as well.

Seen and Delighted In by the Audience of One (version 2) by Debbie Harris

Christian Poetry, Inspirational

Unrecognized work done for the glory of God
is always seen and delighted in
by the Audience of One.

He who hung the stars and numbered every hair
marks each hidden hour, each unspoken prayer.
No quiet labor offered in faithful love
escapes the tender gaze of the King who stoops low
to crown the unseen with His own “Well done.”

The eyes of men may glance and quickly pass,
yet Heaven’s Audience lingers with delight.
What seems unnoticed in the weary day
is gathered as sweet incense before the throne—
every act of quiet obedience,
every seed sown in secret faithfulness.

So rest, dear soul, when recognition fades:
All is known. All is cherished. All is grace.
Seen and delighted in
by the Audience of One.

When Hissing Tongues Swirl by Debbie Harris

When hissing tongues in venom swirl and sting,
And sland’rous words like serpents twist the air,
May we be those esteeming others higher than ourselves,
And count each neighbor worthier than our care.

Not born of pride or selfish vain conceit,
Nor forged in hollow show for mortal eyes,
But in true lowliness, where grace is sweet,
We lift the least and silence our own cries.

Let swirling gales of spite their fury spend,
And tempests rage where envy loves to dwell;
We stand unmoved, as lights that heaven send,
Where meekness reigns and pride is cast away.
