HEART THAT FOLLOWS THE LORD WHO RULES OVER US
March 21 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on Judges 8-9
Key Verse – Judges 8:23 And Gideon said unto them, I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you: the LORD shall rule over you.
HEART THAT FOLLOWS THE LORD WHO RULES OVER US
Our heart follows the Lord Who rules over us from sinful blight
We thank Him for forgiving our confessed transgressions of sincere plight
While cleansing us with His purging might
Never pushing us toward the filthy along impurities’ height.
Our heart follows the Lord Who rules over us from guilty position
We thank Him for regarding our repentance from corruption
While sanctifying us, guarding us against deception
Never driving us toward idolatry and abomination.
Our heart follows the Lord Who rules over us from frustrated blaming
We thank Him for awakening our souls from worldly dreaming
While alerting us against humanism’s harming
Never casting us toward vanity soaking and roaming.
Our heart follows the Lord Who rules over us from humiliating haughtiness
We thank Him for correcting ours mind midst rebelliousness
While reaching out to us in His humility’s meekness
Never thrusting us toward pride and arrogance-stiffness.
Our heart follows the Lord Who rules over us from selfish downfall
We thank Him for disciplining our will so that we can give Him our all
While imprisoning us within His loving wall
Never shutting us toward self-glorifying and self-pitying hall.
Our heart follows the Lord Who rules over us from futile mediocrity
We thank Him for teaching our spirits the need to learn for fruitful maturity
While instilling in us our part in Biblical Christianity
Never guiding us toward uncertainty and insecurity.
Our heart follows the Lord Who rules over us from selfish motive
We thank Him for directing our steps for servanthood that is effective
While transforming us by His Word, verily instructive
Never tolerating us toward being barren and unproductive.
