HEART THAT BUILDS LIVES UNTO GOD
May 22 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on Ezra 4-7
Key Verse – Ezra 4:3 But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the LORD God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.
HEART THAT BUILDS LIVES UNTO GOD
Our heart builds lives unto God against sins
With His holiness that divinely wins
While we repent from our wickedness midst worldliness dins
And seek His forgiveness from His mercy-bins.
Our heart builds lives unto God against transgressions
With His grace that girds against abominations
While we acknowledge our negative reactions
And cling to His pardon along His instructions.
Our heart builds lives unto God against selfishness
With His goodness that corrects self-exalting humbleness
While we forsake our self-righteousness
And hide in His love that rebukes enviousness.
Our heart builds lives unto God against arrogance
With His meekness that subdues pride’s endurance
While we surrender our vain craving for earthly extravagance
And abide in His satisfaction of heavenly assurance.
Our heart builds lives unto God against iniquities
With His discipline that straightens us against crookedness
While we submit our doubts and uncertainties
And trust His promises of perfection-securities.
Our heart builds lives unto God against disobedience
With His help that transforms from rebellion-insurgence
While we turn to Him from our useless expedience
And follow His ways through His caring diligence.
Our heart builds lives unto God against error-caused impairment
With His miracle that performs divine achievement
While we overcome our lack of ministry involvement
And fulfill His will through His Scriptural settlement.
