Precious worth yon celestial treasure…
such is worshipping the Lord*, exalting His name
the Creator Who remains immutable
along His resplendent holiness
of radiant majesty
assuring mankind's eternal salvation.
Divine intimacy with the sovereign King…

in worshipping God Almighty
ruling by His infallible wisdom
vanquishing deception, doubt and despair
while guarding faith with heaven-sealed truth.
Gratitude grips the soul
such resounds in worshipping the Saviour
reaching mankind with His compassion
offering grace, mercy and peace
rescuing from sins’ guilt and wrath of hell
toward sharing His gift of love.

Love* reigns
as home does bloom
with care parents do tend
breeding well on hearts of kindness
midst hope.
Peace rules
while Dad and Mom
set family delights
for triumphant togetherness
with grace.
Joy bursts
with sibling bond
vanquishing selfishness
letting growth's nurture to flourish
freely.
Hope glows
in partnership
weaving friends in the Lord
around blest prayer fellowship
faith-filled.
Loved ones
beautify life
prevailing yon goodness
endowed with legacy, birthing
blest days.
*1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

Transporting you to childhood days…
I*’ll carry your heart to mirth-filled place
Glowing with exuberant magical rays
Vanquishing gloom of boredom mace
Leaving contagious radiance on your face.
Join me in this blessed jubilant ride
Whirling along merry-go-round tide
Such is kids’ achievement of sweet pride
Undeniable triumph joyous scream can’t hide…
Remember your glee-brightened grin, prettily wide?
To your special child, I offer purest delight
Calming down his bouts with spastic blight…
Come sit with him toward blissful bonding flight
Soar above wheelchair’s security-might
Braced by faith’s power** --- held by God, lovingly tight.
* Carousel personified
Personification in Rhyme form
**Psalm 68:35 …God … is he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God.

The Lamb to the slaughter*
submitted freely to sovereign will
fulfilling heavenly role to die in my stead –
with priceless holy sacrifice and precious blood to pay
for my ransom, as a sinner condemned for everlasting fury
toward divine quickening so I can rejoice
in the Saviour’s eternal redemption…
Such Lamb of God slain
from the foundation of the world
now constantly upholds my very being
along my becoming, guarding me from sin-slaughter
enabling me to delight in His assured forever…
That Lamb is my Shepherd**
Who leads my steps to walk on
paths of righteousness with love
directing my heart toward trusting
His promises, glowing with hope, smiting doubt…
The resurrected Lamb with His grace
anchors me by the Almighty’s truth and mercy
letting my faith bloom toward kindness’ fruition
propelled for reaching-out, vanquishing selfish blight…
Yes, the Lamb of God midst His love
secures me throughout the end and beyond
sanctified from guilt, assured triumphantly
with His pardon so I can share granted blessings…
Indeed, I worship the Lamb Who is my Lord
for enriching me midst contentment
to keep on sharing the Gospel, while writing poems
propelled by His power, conquering my debility…
While praying to the Lamb for compassion-optimization
here am I humbled, serenely blissful
fervently desiring to do best against flaws
acknowledging that my all is nothing without
the LAMB OF GOD***.
*Isaiah 53:7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
**Psalms 23:1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
***John 1:36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!

With their undeniable transport-function
Horses demand rigorous empowerment…
Hence in their vital rejuvenating station
They huddle for hearty replenishment.
What a sight to behold them in their haven
Feasting along grazing land’s abundance…
While displaying prowess tenaciously proven
Midst tourists enthralled by their elegance.
Sternly ushered to their distinct fortress
They soberly settle in their serene paradise…
Vanquishing pressures of sports-distress
In their stables ready for tomorrow’s surprise.
Horses* for battle, others for leisure
Commendable for their service-zest…
Giving to their Creator gracious pleasure
They deserve a salute with my gratitude’s best.
*Revelation 19:14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

"He will progress toward retrogression..."
Mother's heart defied such prognosis
yet it reverberated, haunting soul
thus, faith cleaved to divine pillar
toward hope fueling functionality
surmounting spastic bouts
conquering seizures
then beholding miracles.
Now, milestones radiate
as special child drives himself
midst freedom bliss
maneuvering wheelchair
likewise taking steps with walker's brace
vanquishing mother's fear
toward triumph of impossibilities
enabled by God*, the divine anchor.
*Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

In the density of dark—a tale unfolds.
Where shadows dance and secrets are told,
A candle—golden before my eyes,
Illuminating truths, where darkness lies.
Such a flame, so delicate and bright,
Casting its glow, vanquishing the night,
Flickering with—a touch of grace,
Leaving marks upon my soul's embrace
In the depths of shadows, it does reside.
A beacon of hope—a guide to confide,
A flickering candle, its glow such as gold,
A source of solace—a story to unfold
Within its light—the living goad to dream.
To chase ambitions, to reach extremes,
Beyond the boundaries of reality and reason,
Seeking a place where dreams are not treason.
Praying for something unobtainable,
Yearning for a world—that is fantastical,
Existing within the lie of a reverie,
Where the truth is hidden but the heart foresees.
The Flickering Candle, Golden Glow,
A symbol of hope—in the darkness below,
Shining bright, despite the shadows that bind,
Guiding us forward—with a light so kind
In its flicker—a story is told.
Of dreams that burn within its scold.
Of hopes and fears, intertwined,
In the flickering candle—a world we find
So let us embrace its golden flame.
Let it guide us, despite the pain.
In the darkness—it will show,
A path to follow—a way to grow
With each flicker—a raw chapter begins.
As the candle's golden glow never dims.
In the density of dark, we'll leave our mark.
With dreams that ignite—such a flickering
Redeemed by God to own eternal life
Forgiven, my soul is now heaven-bound
To soar for faith venture on higher ground
As new creature freed from hell-chained strife.
Subduing flesh, championing sublime will
My quickened spirit takes up cross with grace
Surmounting temptations by Scriptures’ brace
I strive toward triumphant service-hill.
Crucified with Christ, nonetheless I live*
Dying to selfishness, vanquishing pride
Revived by the Holy Ghost’s divine light
To thrive in His love as best for Him give
Rejoicing for wondrous heavenly ride
While sharing with others Gospel delight.
*Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

August 27 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on Lamentations 1-3
Key Verse – Lamentations 1:9 …O LORD, behold my affliction: for the enemy hath magnified himself.
PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR BEHOLDING OUR AFFLICTIONS
Praise be to God for beholding our afflictions:
Hoisting us from hellish heat
Helping us with His heavenly host
Handling us against hardening howls
Holding us upon His hedging heartiness
Healing us along His health-hewing hands
Lamentations 2:9 Praise be to the Lord for
leading us with His vision so:
Vivid with His Biblical view
Victorious by His blessed valour
Vocal along His best against vanity
Virtuous building us through His verities
Valuable by His bestowments, vanquishing vileness
Lamentations 3:22 Praise be to the Saviour for
His mercies and compassions that fail not to:
Lead us to His light
Love us midst His liberty
Lose us with His leadership
Lift us despite our longings and losses
Link us toward His lasting lessons of life. Amen!

Today and onward...
Soldier of Christ,
there is a great fight ahead of you:
Daily praying for others, leading them to God,
discipling them conscientiously;
Helping the prodigal children go back to the Father,
encouraging the wounded to endure holy battles...
Hence, always and daily...
Put on the whole armour of God.*
You are that Christian warrior
of the spiritually-armed forces of the Supreme Commander
mandated to wrestle "not against flesh and blood
but against rulers of the darkness of this world in high places."
Thus, today and constantly...
Put on the whole armour of God.
As commissioned to be strong in the Lord,
fight the good fight of faith
empowered by the might of Christ,
not as one that beats the air...
advancing His kingdom
populating heaven
vanquishing hell's gates.
Therefore today and everyday...
Put on the whole armour of God.
*Ephesians 6:11 "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil."
Ephesians 6:12 "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
