LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY LABOUR OF LOVE'S INSPECTOR

November 26 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on 1Thessalonians 1-3

Key Verse– 1Thessalonians 1:3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father. 

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY LABOUR OF LOVE’S INSPECTOR Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who checks my sincerity Thank You that I can trust Your salvation’s certainty For my assurance of eternal security And joy in Your Word’s stability. Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who is my perfect example Thank You that I can depend on Your power since my faith You propel For my strength in sharing Your Gospel And deliverance from temptations’ ripple. Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who reproves my vain motive Thank You that I can entreat Your help when I become proudly reactive For my meekness to please You against carnality that’s assertive And humility to submit to Your directive. Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who witnesses my behaviour Thank You that I can lean on Your love’s transformation-endeavour For my walk to be worthy in Your kingdom’s favour And testimony that shows You’re my Lord and Saviour. Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who forgives my doubtfulness Thank You that I can ask for Your pardon to cleanse my confessed sinfulness For my victory against unrighteousness And peace while engaging in Your holiness. Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who meets readily my need Thank You that I can cling to Your grace with mercy indeed For my contentment against covetousness and greed And satisfaction despite distress of selfishness-breed. Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who fights my fear Thank You that I can cleave to Your presence I hold so dear For my comfort in my sorrowful tear And delight in Your compassion, sweetly near.
