Depend upon God. Pt2.
PS. 130:5 I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in His word do I hope.
7 Let Israel hope in the Lord; for with the Lord there is mercy, and
With him is plenteous redemption.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
As we wait for the Lord in our season, remember His steadfast love and faithfulness.
To his people. And be assured that he has heard our prayers.
Our confidence shall remind us that he is with us.
6: My soul waits for the Lord, more than they that watch for the morning:
I say more than they who watch for the morning.
And so shall I, knowing that God will return in the morning, to me according to
to his promises.
For God’s covenant is more firm than the ordinance of day and night.
They will one day pass away.
But that which is everlasting remains steadfast, tried, and true.
The cross at Calvary commands that it’s finished.
And the pilgrim of Zion shall never be defeated.
By life’s forces of hell.
That is why we have many testimonies as proof.
We, too, must learn to depend on God.
Through the Mississippi River trenches
Bayou close
Plantation seen in the distance
Cruising through Southern history’s past
Battle and Struggle
Civil War breakout
Slavery quo
Acceleration having a slow pace
Rebel among the multitude of voices
Southern accent
Freedom thought
The need being a slow proceed
Won’t, Can’t, Shouldn’t and total stand still
The vision of slaves being compelled to function on the many plantations sun up to sun down
Breezes were only a wave with a fan
Mississippi River far and wide
Shores yonder
Banjos setting the tone for boundaries forbidden
Folklore testimonies
Singing and dancing through the circumstances
Slaves praying every chance
Only Slaves knew the trouble they seen
Having the understanding I mean
Southern drawl components
Mouth to Mouth
The Mississippi River belle telling how the Mississippi River being the passage way in bringing Slaves for plantation purposes
Mississippi River ever wise
Southern element no surprise
Beyond the spectacle, but slaves had to succumb having no surrender, but ordinance.
I am a child of testimony
A chosen vessel of God
Fashioned to bring Him honor and glory
In my sojourn on this sinful Earth
My birth heralded a testimony of greatness
Growing up was a litany of testimonies
Today I stand as testimony personified
Beautifully and wonderfully made
Sometimes I am troubled
But never crushed
Sometimes I am badly hurt but not destroyed
Sometimes I am plagued by doubt but never in despair
Handle me with care for I am the apple of His eyes
He is with me always and so
You can only be against me at your own peril
For whom God has blessed no man can curse
Let the child of testimony move on
For his mission has been divinely ordained
And woe betide any detractors
Engaged to bring to nought his divine mission!
Kaleidoscope kiss full of color
I reminisce about licorice lover
Your warm embrace so soft safe
Tender brown eyes deep as lake
Your heart so sweet dedicated
Setting mine free emancipated
To fly fearless free among love birds
Singing testimonies notes as words
If I never before had seen gold sun
Would think you shine upon everyone
Your smile so bright and inviting
Your style so light eclectic exciting
The way you communicate speak
Is refreshingly red like poetry
I study your body’s language too
For you’re a book of magical moves
Your hazel hugs deeply loved
And of course teal tender touch
Falling from tall tree of ecstasy
Where you’re the trunk I’m leaf
Wind chimes sing of our rufous romance
Through seasons we continue to dance
Never afraid of the day death parts
Immortal we are in love and hearts
When God becomes a Father, as it’s mean’t to be,
he no longer judges, you or me.
He begins to help us, as in life we live,
as we daily go, the more to Him we give.
He loves us all, He wants us all to see,
as He teaches us each day, how a parent be.
We fall short of Him, each and every day,
he still loves us, in His Fatherly Way.
He doesn’t want to judge us, this we have to see,
all He wants, is to be a Father, to you and me.
Only to those who don’t believe, yet they have their choice,
just two words, He waits to hear from their voice.
I believe, from the trueness of the heart,
as from their lips, these words they do part.
with these two words, the changes that they bring,
on that day of judgment, our testimonies sing.
For He became our Father, not to judge us, you see,
God will judge, but a Father to us He be.
His Spirit guides us daily, keeping us in his way,
so, we have no fear, of that judgment day.
As every cassock is enough to tell
You are a minister
Either a chorister or a pastor
To grace well and impel
Is seeing you become only God's toastmaker
Every sunset gives us one day less to live
Count your seeds of the spirit
Spread through undaunted love
And not the course of service's bigot
But testimonies of brethren who enjoy your patency
But every sunrise give us one day more to hope
Most time making all observations dumbstruck
Replying each and every with a thunderstruck
It is no near to count a botch
If its effects work like a troche
Hope for the best for we are all human
Flaws are inevitable but can be abandon
No one has ever achieve chancery with God
That has ever live on earth a slipshod being
But clinching His dictates can make you ratherish well-bred
Good Luck
Get strong
Beefing do suck
Flee off wrong
It gets growth abating
Be the David's type Shepherd
Familiar with the said story
Not needed to be re-established
Failure needs no sorry
Be up and doing...
A day for me; strong and weird through blue
Is a day for nice atmospheric bliss to glue
Wishes, prayers and testimonies together
While pronouncing an awesome glowing weather
You can attest the touches of nature that bless today
Its opening prayer no doubt is for me in all its say
And as the trees continue to say AMEN, angels sing...
And enrich the fate of freewill that glorify my KING
My heart rejoice within me, oh buddy of young love
My lips pray of my wishes to be truly mine to live
As I age off hell with hope, grace and luck
Let nothing come what may have prayers suck
Be happy now and forever as always Wems
With God for you, future is a thing designs in poems
Be glad you've got to count this day healthily
In wisdom that path thanksgiving the route stealthily
Be joyous for love "J" shares is real
Mind not to give this head a big deal
May all good promises come to pass on time
To making me enjoy youthful ace through its prime
Glow on... wishes; stay calm to it
Lay all glee on the chill; breed for its hit
Happy birthday to Wems; a darling
Live long and dont be film stalling...
Life experiences
Preparation long run
Sharing instances gained to others
Listen to what wisdom showed
Live and Learn principle
Pathways and Breakthroughs in struggles
Little things being hard knocks
Falls with get up
People say life is what it is and what it embraces
In young years, youth never think the process
There’s never no time
As one lives on, one learns on everlasting
Pitfalls of living
Testimonies to come
Wisdom is never lonesome
Giving out victorious virtues.
Did Moses say that you enter into life
or did he say you can enjoy life
If you follow the Law in Romans 10:5?
"O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day.
Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: they are ever with me.
I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.
I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.
I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.
I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.
How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way." [a]
Is Jesus the Savior of all men?
As we read in 1 Timothy 4:10?
Yes and no. He is the Savior of those who believe
He is the provider of necessary things
for all and those who have not been again conceived
"He saves some men in all ways, and all men in some ways" [b]
Common grace and saving grace
For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth [c]
Jesus The Rock©2025 dBwordresearch
Some are without the Rock of security
They are drifting helplessly out to sea.
Jesus is the Rock and our foundation
He's the key to unlock Heaven's door.
Faith keeps us closer than a brother
He's the solid Rock; there is no other.
A deep affection shows we are not fake
Jesus the Rock directs each step I take.
We now see clearly without being heard
Wordless testimonies never are absurd.
"Faith is the substance of things hoped
For, the Evidence of things not seen."
Complement of the season
Christ the reason
Love the rhythm of the season
Songs of ecstacy
As we all sing joyfully aloud
Feliz navidad
A song we all like dancing to.
Alot of merriment
Enough to eat and drink
As we party hard
Smile on everyone's faces
As we converse within us
Things that merry the heart.
Jubilations
Not tribulations
Contribution to each other's joy
Not contradicting the story
As we share our testimonies
It was a showering of unconditional love.
All night
Bless my pains oh God
And let my memories be
That of laughter
Let my grieves be turn to testimonies
I have been living a free life
Yes I have been struggling through
My times and seasons
Am not better than my shadows
Cos my spirit echo’s to my ancestors
For my better days
The system is tearing away my body
Yet the circumstances around me is pulling my spirit up to inspiration
Why won’t I hold on
Why will I say never to my calling
Cos all day am out there
Dealing with the world
And now I can’t sleep
But keep writing
All night.
‘Twas the night before Christmas and we’re thrilled
That in our reunion we would be filled
With blessings of family-love and cheer
Midst fellowship around those we hold dear.
Caring warmth exceeded blazing bonfire
As no one among us would like to retire
While hearing testimonies of hope’s best
Exuding from hearts’ compassionate zest.
With carol’s reverberating delight
Our praises reigned toward heavenly flight
Feasting upon the treasures of God’s grace*
To share with others along goodness-brace.
Thrilled were we with remarks of gratitude
Propelled by faith and kindness’ fortitude
Indeed experienced always by our pets
Joining us in our glad video vignettes.
*Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
