Rule of Threes Five

Pride negatory Better to share His glory God writes your story Special kind of gain We can only learn through pain God may not explain Treasure has a source Wisdom is treasure, of course God stores His resource When God sends trouble And we climb out the rubble Job got a double Lies are on the rise Look at all the hostile eyes Folly in disguise He regrets his birth He can't understand his worth Scripture will unearth A faith confession Eternal life impression Better possession When your heart is torn When your spirit is forlorn When choked by the thorn Let faith have its way Let Him put grace on display Let thorns fall away Man pursues success Until pride leads to duress Then pleads for His bless The rulers rebel The peoples' uproar to quell They guile to compel The elitist spins Hiding expedient sins Human folly wins Check your pride or fail Morality will derail Satan will prevail A warrior born His fear of battle to shorn His faith to adorn Godly seed or line New birth joins you by Design There is a deadline The Babel system Is designed to resist Him Not to assist Him Those who fall away Can lead you further astray Give them no leeway He will graft them in Much to the Devil's chagrin Israel serves again He gives strength to you He can drain it away, too So, you remain true See the Erudite Clever, not wise, in His sight They crave the limelight His Scripture indicts Caught in the Spirit's searchlights Sin receives stoplights Why run the stoplight? The dead-end is out of sight So, I am all right The future preset Promised Redeemer paid debt Death's sting is no threat When He breaks the seal Awesome judgments to reveal POWER IS SURREAL The Hill of Foreskins Once their submission begins Now chalking up wins God plans to bless us Satan conspires to harm us That's why all the fuss Knock, knock - "Who is there?" "Jesus, will you become My heir?" "Hide the silverware." "How do I tell you, When words simply will not do?" Faithfulness gets through Reason for defeat Look not at God for retreat You're on the hot seat Faith hesitating God's honor moderating Progress deflating Act on His desire He walks with you in the fire He thwarts 'Nezzar's pyre Deception in war Lies He wants us to deplore Does His curse call for? Football's secret sauce Each play a win or a loss Hostile lines to cross Problem and prayer Climbing the steps of His stair Jacob wrestled there How His Kingdom won: Seals unleash the 21 Judgments get it done
