Isaiah 53

The sins I have committed
The things that I have done
Have fell upon another
On God's only son

He was tempted by the devil
Was strong and endured
He was led as a sheep to the slaughter
A sacrifice clean and pure

Through one man's disobedience
Many are called to sin (Romans 5:9)
the obedience of Jesus to the cross,
keeps the hope of righteous men

He was wounded for our transgressions,
To the cross, he was nailed
He was bruised for our iniquities:
By his stripes we are healed

Seeing as how he suffered
And endured for MY sin
I have to give my all
And devote this life to Him.

Lord, give me the strength
To give up my will
And not to be entangled
In affairs of this life still

Help me to remember
The blood and the wounds
The way that Jesus suffered
And gave Up His life too.

Isaiah 53

we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
⁴Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
⁵But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

^{Isaiah 51:6}Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
⁷Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.
⁸For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.
⁹Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old.

 Matthew 12:³⁶
But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

The enemy provokes her sore
And causes her to fret
She gets a worthy portion
But has no child just yet

The adversary is at her
Day by day by day
And teasing her year by year,
Devil, go away!

Eli thinks she is full of wine
But she is crying for a child
She makes her plea for a son
To be hers a little while

God blesses her with a son
She fulfills her part of the deal
She gives the child back to The Lord
She trusts in God's will

O Lord, you have given us
more than we deserve
Please fill us with hearts
That really want to serve

Souls that desire
Not to please "just me"
But to be servants
Devoted unto only thee

Help us when we hear the adversary,
whispering his lies
That we drown out his words
And to God, we cry

^{Phillipians 1:6}Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
⁷Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.
⁸For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.
⁹And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;
¹⁰That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ.
¹¹Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
¹²But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

I am seeking for the old paths
Wherein is the good way (Jeremiah 6:16)
There is a rest offered there
For those who seek today

The rest is found to those
Who abide in His will
They keep his commandments (John 14:15)
They wait (Galatians 5:5) and "be still" (Psalm 4:4)

His power is overwhelming
His mercies, they abound (Eph 2:4)
Peter had to follow Jesus
Where eternal life could be found (John 6:68)

Today, people are seeking
For many things today
They have made their life so busy
They don't have time to pray

This life will be over in A minute
What will you have to show?
Did you win the marathon?
Was your chlorestrol low?

Oh lord, my plea today
Is that people all around
Prepare a habitation (Eph 2:22)
Where Our Lord will want to be found

A place where he consumes our thoughts
Our minds are stayed on him (Hebrews 8:10)
In every word, he is glorified and
Our love we freely give
