HEART THAT SETTLES PEACEFULLY IN THE ZEAL OF THE LORD

July 30 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on Isaiah 9-12

Key Verse – Isaiah 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

HEART THAT SETTLES PEACEFULLY IN THE ZEAL OF THE LORD Our heart settles peacefully in the zeal of the Lord against discouragement So that we can surmount with faith trials’ entrapment As steadfast saints by His presence of mighty empowerment Never more to wallow in frustration-sentiment. Our heart settles peacefully in the zeal of the Lord against dissatisfaction So that we can overcome worldliness’ vexation As fortunate heirs by His salvation of assured redemption Never more to complain with discontentment-reaction. Our heart settles peacefully in the zeal of the Lord against dishonesty So that we can resist cheating’s intensity As converted believers by His forgiveness of gracious authority Never more to struggle midst righteousness-certainty. Our heart settles peacefully in the zeal of the Lord against disturbance So that we can conquer fear’s dominance As valiant soldiers by His strength of strong endurance Never more to cower because of fright-grievance. Our heart settles peacefully in the zeal of the Lord against disrespect So that we can subdue humanism’s intellect As transformed learners by His guidance of wise aspect Never more to ponder midst vanity-retrospect. Our heart settles peacefully in the zeal of the Lord against distress So that we can rejoice over gloom’s duress As jubilant Christians by His sovereignty of supreme fortress Never more to linger in failure-stress. Our heart settles peacefully in the zeal of the Lord against dismay So that we can move on from downfall’s delay As repentant sinners by His pardon of merciful way Never more to compromise in worldliness-array.
