Poetry
The Will of God is the Word of God
Defines your food and direction
Very good, so long as you have heard
It points to your right destination.
It takes priority, pre-eminent
It releases grace that is sufficient.
But the problem is often my will
Like Jonah who fled to Tarshish
And there he was met with a hill
He had to cry in the belly of the fish
And God in His mercy saved him
As He began to repent and praise Him.
God’s Will has a divine purpose;
To take you to your Promised Land;
Triumphing over those who oppose;
To put you at the centre of His plan
To prepare you, prune you
and prove you, fulfil you.
Yes, His will has a price attached
That price is often called the cross
But there’s abundant grace to match
So your labour will be at no loss.
No need to despair; no need to quit.
He gives His Spirit with strength to fit.
After the price, there will come the Prize.
No suffering can be compared to it.
That is why you need to lift your eyes,
To Jesus who began and will finish it.
Hold on to the horns of His altar,
Because He is alpha and Omega.
Receive His peace, stay in the centre
Until you cross to the other side.
You have a Saviour like no other,
Yield to Him and let Him ride.
You will surely come to your divine haven
That is why your home is in heaven.
Pray without ceasing for His will to be done.
Pray in the Spirit and understanding
Enter, come now, boldly to His royal throne,
Know that for you He is interceding
That in spite of what is sent by hell,
You too will finish and finish well.
