Fear not

Fear Not 0 Little Flock

Fear not 0 little flock,

The foe who madly seeks to overthrow

Will come crashing down.

Dread not his rage and power

His seeming triumph over all God's saints

Lasts a little hour...

True as God's word is true

Not earth nor hell and all it's crew

Against us shall prevail

0ur victory just cannot fail...

Rise Up! Rise Up!

Rise Up! Rise Up! Rise Up!

Fear not 0 little flock,

Be sharp! Be strong!

your cause to God belongs

Fix your eyes and pray...

Stand with the God of peace

He'll soon crush Satan

underneath your feet

In this your battle day

Lord Jesus grant our prayer

Great Captain, now Your arm make bare

As Your sword sweeps the skies

We'll see salvation here arise...

Hold on...Hold on...

Keep your hand on that plough hold on!

The Wine is Alive

(words by Godfrey Birtill "The Wine is Alive)
 
He changed my lament into whirling dance
He ripped off my sad black mourning band
He dressed me with joy
And filled me with song
I can’t stop drinking my God so strong.

The Wine...Is Alive...
It’s Jesus Christ! It’s Jesus Christ!
The Wine...Is Alive...
It’s Jesus Christ! It’s Jesus Christ!
Drink Deep! Drink Deep! Drink Deep! Drink Deep!

Hey do you know this shocking truth?
You’re cleansed, accepted and justified too!
Not guilty, forgiven and reconciled
Embraced by the Father, it’s party time!

Conquering life

Good Morning Holy Spirit. Today is already an exciting day. Lets conquer it together,

deliriously happy

I'm deliriously happy. While writing reports I've had a day of Worshiping God and listening to good grace teaching. I stopped for a break and read some of John Crowder's book "The Ecstasy of Loving God".   A quote from the book:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Many Christians have been conditioned to believe that the personal satisfaction they derive from God can become idolatrous. Even in the thought work of Lewis, he determined that the personal satisfaction of love was not evil, as long as it did not become an idol. But Piper takes Lewis’ work to the next level, and more to the heart of Scripture. He says that our personal satisfaction in God is the very essence of true worship!

“The longing to be happy is a universal human experience, and it is good, not sinful. We should never try to deny or resist our longing to be happy, as though it were a bad impulse,” writes Piper. “Instead, we should seek to intensify this longing and nourish it with whatever will provide the deepest and most enduring satisfaction. The deepest and most enduring happiness is found only in God.”
