Illumined By God

Illumined by God thru the Scriptures’ light Led to do the Lord’s will with the Spirit’s might Loved so much around the Saviour’s compassion-delight Upheld for faith-driven good works’ height Moved toward grateful worship, joyously bright Imparted with divine nature that is godly and right Nourished by grace* and mercy day and night Assured of eternal salvation’s security for heaven’s flight Directed along holiness-walk midst spiritual fight Attended to in prayer plight, I rejoice in the Father's presence, devoid of fright! Accepted am I as God’s child with His certainty Guided by His prudent authority United to His supreme purpose of great sovereignty Sanctified for effective witness-integrity Taught to trust always the wisdom of the Almighty Inspired as enabled in fulfilling steward’s duty Nurtured with God’s provisions, I abide in His security! Driven toward willing obedience faithfully Ordered to share the Gospel diligently Liberated against selfish agenda powerfully Instructed with Bible truths constantly Named as God’s own to live for Him triumphantly Trained to testify about His goodness gladly Always, I thank and praise the Lord sincerely. *Psalm 84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
