My God, Thank You For Nourishing Me Up

November 26 Scripture Meditations Based on 1Timothy 3-4
 
Key Verse – 1Timothy 4:6 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.

MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR NOURISHING ME UP

Thank You for nourishing me up in Your words of faith-exercise
So powerfully mighty for valuable sacrifice
To strengthen me while for Your glory I will arise
Against grips of worthless ties.

Thank You for nourishing me up in Your doctrines of truth-certainty
So purely biblical for fruitful spirituality
To assure me within Your salvation of steadfast security
Against beliefs of humanistic religiosity.

Thank You for nourishing me up in Your teachings of loyalty-faithfulness
So clearly constant for joyful devotedness
To uphold me while to Your love I cleave with peacefulness
Against attacks of infidelity’s waywardness.

Thank You for nourishing me up in Your principles of ministry-stewardship
So fully effective for optimum partnership
To uphold me within Your fellowship whenever I seek You in worship
Against enticements of worldly friendship.

Thank You for nourishing me up in Your care of compassion-nurture
So gently kind for good works’ gesture
To drive me toward Your heart I trust in my heavenly venture
Against anger of hatred’s torture.

Thank You for nourishing me up in Your instructions of triumph-contentment
So bountifully sufficient for grateful acknowledgment
To supply me with Your abundance I enjoy with fulfillment
Against tragedy of prayerlessness’ detriment.

Thank You for nourishing me up in Your assurance of presence-guidance
So readily available for prudent performance
To direct me to Your ways I choose for holy stance
Against frustrations of stubborn arrogance.
