Rainfall
rainfall cascading
quenching the thirsty parched lands
heavenly blessings
*Leviticus 26:4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

May 13 Faith in God Bible Meditations Based on 2Chronicles 9-12
Key Verse – 2Chronicles 9:8 Blessed be the LORD thy God, which delighted in thee to set thee on his throne, to be king for the LORD thy God: because thy God loved Israel, to establish them for ever, therefore made he thee king over them, to do judgment and justice.
FAITH IN GOD WHO DELIGHTS IN US
God delights in us, settling our faith upon Scriptural firmness…
Indeed, assuring our eternal salvation by His graciousness
And forgiving us of confessed sinfulness
To set us toward victorious gloriousness.
God delights in us, teaching our faith toward His direction…
Indeed, leading our steps by His wise instruction
And checking us with right correction
To uphold us against falsity and deception.
God delights in us, increasing our faith by His Word…
Indeed, confronting our doubts that bring discord
And guiding us by the Spirit’s sword
To mold us as we acknowledge Him as our Lord.
God delights in us, refining our faith toward doing the best…
Indeed, exhorting our devotion by His love, so blest
And inspiring us with heavenly zest
To drive us triumphantly despite trial and test.
God delights in us, propelling our faith for service-flight…
Indeed, transforming our character by His virtuous might
And smiting us of arrogant blight
To humble us while depending on Him midst prayer-plight.
God delights in us, ruling our faith by His guardianship…
Indeed, governing our lives according to His leadership
And nurturing us around His fellowship
To protects us within His discipleship and ministry-partnership.
God delights in us, charging our faith midst His power’s fervency…
Indeed, meeting our needs with His mercy
And letting us enjoy His provisions of satisfying sufficiency
To make us thankful while abiding in His will with our obedience-persistency.
