HEART THAT COMPLIES TO THE COMMANDMENTS OF THE LORD

September 23 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on Amos 6-9

Key Verse – Amos 6:11 For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.

HEART THAT COMPLIES TO THE COMMANDMENTS OF THE LORD Our heart complies to the commandments of the Lord, showing our trust With His compassion beyond unbelief’s crust That corrects us of discontent-disgust For us to cleave to Him fully which is a needful must. Our heart complies to the commandments of the Lord, manifesting our fervency With His truth of wisdom’s persistency That exposes us to Bible principle-consistency For us to come to Him sincerely along His mercy. Our heart complies to the commandments of the Lord, expressing our satisfaction With His providence-provision of contentment-action That disciplines us against prayerlessness’ malfunction For us to seek Him constantly midst worldly invitation. Our heart complies to the commandments of the Lord, exposing our submissiveness With His guidance of Scriptural holiness That teaches us toward dependence-fullness For us to learn from Him willingly to continue in His righteousness. Our heart complies to the commandments of the Lord, overcoming our complaints With His graciousness, always gearing us since it never faints That rebukes us whenever we grumble along disgusting murmur-taints For us to call unto Him humbly with His blessed saints. Our heart complies to the commandments of the Lord, conquering our worry With His readiness to solve what we consider as mystery That protects us against perilous woe and misery For us to lean on Him constantly for joyous victory. Our heart complies to the commandments of the Lord, reproving our indolence With His power over slothfulness-prevalence That drives us toward diligence-opulence For us to praise Him blissfully midst prayer-filled sublime silence.
