Stirring Up Your Faith

Faith comes from God as His gift
to help us believe in the Lord
for God is eternal always forever
displaying His word as His mighty sword

God gives His scriptures to us
so we learn and know His word
which helps us to believe His truth
lifting our faith soaring like a bird

Remember well God's promises
they are so faithfully true
count on them for your life
because He did it all for you

Learn to trust in God alone
dig deep into God's word of truth
be studious, spend time with God
drinking in the Lord's scriptural juice

Be triumphant in your faith
believe sincerely with all your heart
that God is your God of love
shows real faith is a work of art

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood. 1 John 4:4?-?6 NIV, ,. Very great scripture here Gordon, living in the spirit
