Despite Threats of World War III Premiere Contest Winner

Despite challenging threats of World War III crises... Let’s seek God* Who compassionately blesses As we show good works’ practices While clinging to His promises Indeed relying upon what His “Fear not” expresses. Despite discouraging gloom brought by a World War III environment... Let’s yield to God so we can avoid evil engagement As we persevere in our Christian covenant-fulfillment While striving to do our commitment Indeed fixed on His “Be of good cheer” words of contentment. Despite tormenting picture of a World War III situation... Let’s abide in God to conquer seemingly helpless condition As we remain steadfast in our well-doing function While showing strong determination Indeed anchored on His “Trust in the Lord” declaration. Despite burdening World War III imagined hardship... Let’s submit to God in vanquishing deceitful partnership As we stay responsible in our stewardship While seeking His fellowship Indeed lifting His name for His “Praise ye the Lord” in our worship. Despite distracting World War III-rattle... Let’s beseech God in Whose might we can settle As we become victorious in our spiritual health and sanitation battle While overcoming uncleanness’ mantle Indeed cleaving to His “Be strong in the Lord” mettle. Despite attacking World War III restlessness... Let’s call unto God to win against the flesh and worldliness As we strive to be consistent in our prayer-earnestness While staying in His gracious faithfulness Indeed fired up by His “Be ye holy” to fight sinfulness. Despite despairing World War III impending reality... Let’s depend on God in sharing the Gospel against adversity As we increase in our faith’s intensity While thanking Him humbly with joy’s purity Indeed empowered by His “Lovest thou me...?" test of sincerity.
*Psalm 69:32 The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God. May 11, 2020 Edited on September 13, 2023
