“Isaiah 5:20
King James Version
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”
God is not the author of confusion
His grace His mercy not an illusion
He is the rock upon solid ground
Where one who is lost can be found
Beware of the world and it’s slippery slopes
False gods like fast cars offering spiritual dope
That feels good to the flesh yet neglects soul
I’d rather have Jesus than silver and gold
Fear God almighty that you live right
That you do good deeds in this life
No trickery putting bitter for sweet
What’s done in dark all will someday see
Woe to them calling evil good and good evil
Wages of sin are death like times mid evil
For man shall not live by bread alone
But by word of God who sits on throne
A seed planted in the silence, a quiet truth that sprouts.
It needs no altar, no grand cathedral arch,
only the open soil of a listening heart.
A whispered promise carried on the dawn’s first light,
a constant hum beneath the world’s loud noise.
It feels like rain after a long, dry season,
quenching the parched spirit, filling the empty spaces.
A steady flame in the deep winter dark,
offering warmth without demanding belief.
It is the anchor when the storm winds blow,
a gentle, unwavering presence, guiding us home.
A simple rhythm, the heartbeat of the universe.
The word of God is the way,
Truth, and life.
The word of God is power;
Power heals the sick,
And fight against sin.
Money will be gone,
Houses will get old,
Cars will rust and man will fade away,
But the word of God will last forever.
The word of God is light
That shines the world.
Shines in the morning, noon,
And in the night.
The word of God is a blessing; The blessing for life. The word of God is the way,
Truth, and life.
In the beginning,
It was just His word—
A whisper that shaped the world.
Light unfurled like a newborn flame
Tearing through the dark
Proclaiming His name.
Yet, with vision so clear
The world still stumbles
Blinded by fear and greed
Pushing past its bounds
Haunted by its shadow.
Sadly, the world is now lost
Its grip on truth undone
Clawing for light
But redemption
There is none.
Ark of laughter far from sea amid earth
Hair be it long or short power still stays
Mite of two, widows, others measure worth
Bitters Holiness Hunger forty days
We are born to this life as possible,
and grow by the choices that we create,
right or wrong, obstacle or optimal,
I'm an ark, hair, mite, or bitters, --I wait.
The Voice, The Voice, The Voice of Heaven, state,
Heed Me, Heed Me, a sacrifice be made,
Abraham your son, a high place you'll take,
Issac the choice, you heed my voice, spare blade,
Amongst the thicket nigh a ram has strayed,
I am, that I am, what Heaven has made.
God's word is clear, a call to segregate
From the world's wicked ways, to separate
Not to befriend the darkness, nor to condone
The sins that shame the Lord, and cause His throne to moan
But many play the fool, with feet in both camps
Claiming Christ's name, while living in the devil's trance
Enjoying the world's pleasures, like heathens of old
While professing faith in God, with hearts grown cold
But we are called to come out, to be set apart
To live in holy distinction, with a tender heart
Not to love the world, nor the things it affords
But to seek first the kingdom, and His righteous words
So let us heed the call, to separate and be pure
To follow Christ alone, and not the world's allure
For friendship with the world, is enmity with God
And we must choose whom we will serve, and to whom we will nod.
The Word of God best,
Draws full right of man to heed,
Theme salvation rest.
The Word of God is
Very important than food,
Everything you should.
As i understand the scriptures while reading,
My Soul rejoices.
Dry fasting and praying for seven days,
My Spirit boosts.
Preaching and teaching people,
My Soul induces.
Singing and dancing for God,
My Spirit coasts.

open your ears
open your mine
open your heart

open your horizon
open your space
welcome in grace
into your place
open your ears
open your mine
open your heart
-So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2021©
~Romans 10:17~
In the beginning, was the word of God that is and always will be,
Forever endure throughout time,
Will never come back to Him void,
They will accomplish that He please,
By Faith, it is understood,
Everything was framed by His word,
Have not you heard,
We live not by bread alone,
But by every word coming from His mouth,
The word is a lamp that lights your path.
Do your best to meet God’s approver,
For a workman not to be ashamed,
Rightly handling His word of truth,
Let the word of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding
Penetrate your mind.
His ways and thoughts are higher than mankind,
Leaving all your troubles behind,
Do everything to God in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs,
Everything will be just fine,
Sing to the grace of God Divine,
His word is the truth for all mankind.
The word of God
I can see the sign
In the air
Giving life to the weak
Creating hope so real
Right their in the air
Down to the world
The word of God
I can see the wonders
Of the writing of the great
One
It is clear in nature
God is divine
And it creatures
Are never worthless
Cos love brings us
All back to life
And love has always been
The word of God
I recognised always
Hearing God’s Word:
…strengthens grace-sustained faith*
…cheers up revived soul
…nourishes vibrant spirit
…anchors diligent discipleship
…enlivens worshipful service
…boosts scriptural preaching
…propels church-involvement progress
…builds up compassion-driven ministry
…secures biblical commitment
…props fervent prayer!!!
*Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
