Rule of Threes Two

Hope in me and mine
Surrendered to Christ's lifeline
The gospel design

Satan's stronghold fell
His counterattack to quell
Standing saints repel

Just two percent more
That competition calls for
To heighten your soar

Debtors on the run
For His water, soil, and sun
Only the Son won

Dig deep in your Ore
Where you've never been before
Precious gems galore

Life is a playground
Spend some time messing around
Step in battleground

Savior scrutiny
He decreed My victory
Not the Judas tree

It seems right to you
The path you've chosen in view
If only you knew

When taking your rep
The all important first step
Rewards your game prep

The "Perfect" live up
Moving forward to build up
And see Christ close-up

Leading sign of all
Is the Watchman on the wall
Closer is the call

See what Satan dreads
None rely on human creds
Psalms 91 treads

Woke must not revoke
Provoke the Lord with your smoke
Judgment fire to stoke

Young lions agress
Instincts they cannot repress
Captured by finesse

You matter the most
With yourself you are engrossed
Tastes just like burnt toast

Essential practice
For a prayer apprentice
To grow God's promise

Prayer makes things grow
It is not just what you know
But faithful to sow

Prayer in God's court
Is there someone to escort?
Who stamps my passport?

Christ stamps your passport
Holy Spirit to escort
Direct to God's court

Change on the inside
Before change on the outside
Or pride will misguide

Blowing off Scripture
Lets the Thief steal the picture
Uninformed future

Coaching football rile
Agile, mobile, and hostile
Player projectile

One-Ten finishes
What scoffing diminishes
Oath accomplishes

My will a wild horse
When broken, changes my course
His will a racehorse

Wisdom a laugh-in
Idolatry a sit-in
Ruin a shoo-in

Question my manhood?
Pain, not injury, make good!
A cup of wormwood

To cover up lies
Cook up a feast for the eyes
Award with a prize

Judging with motives
Fudging aligns incentives
Same as subversives

Rile is now in style
Rattle cage of rank and file
While wile to beguile

Measure of a man
Not dissuaded from His plan
For all is less than

Best and brightest win?
God's power indwells within
Invincible men

Invincible when?
Daniel in the lion's den
The 'best' lose again

False teachers foresee 
Freedom from morality
Lust is bait to flee

Scholars splitting hairs
So they can sell their side wares
Of peddlers beware

Love and light are tight
Lose your love and lose your light
Jesus' love is BRIGHT
