Have the Strength of God

Have God’s strength* to win over corruption As His sanctified, combating filthiness Washed by Christ’s blood of redemption-completeness Cleansed toward purification’s perfection. Have God’s might to avoid backsliding-perversion As His stewardship, serving with prayer’s steadfastness Governed with His wisdom, anchored upon truthfulness Trained toward discipleship’s effective function.
*Psalm 18:2 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. July 25, 2019
