Must Become Less

Born from captivity of man Seeking the worldly things To satisfy this empty void From lies taught from mankind That go against God's will Blindly putting trust and hope Into ones who belong to the earth Sadly ,the rulers create fear That one's might have to place trust in them. For this world is there hope and glory Using this short time that they might become superior Myself, falling victim of going along In following the wayward crowd Until, one day when the One above Poured the living water within Born unto the spirit from God Birthed unto a new family In seeking moment by moment To become less of what the world teaches And more of the spirit from which Christ Manifest and reveals the hidden mystery That this world does not receive are comprehend Mankind seeks glory of mankind While the spirit seeks to give Christ glory To become complete in wholeness That One might through the spirit become One with Christ And One with the Father in unity Not of own works but by submitting Unto God's hands crucifying old self That His promised spirit might Dwell and reign within the Lord's temple Not created by the hands of man But through the spirit of God's majestic power He must become greater; I must become less.” The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks as one from the earth. The one who comes from heaven is above all. John 3:30?-?31 NIV Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. John 3:5?-?6 NIV Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. John 4:23 NIV Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. Romans 8:5 NIV The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us. 1 John 3:24 NIV
