Poetry

Have you courage O People of God,
To stand when others bow
Before their gods of stone or flesh;
To whom they've made their vow?

Will you prevail in faithfulness
Although you be threatened with death
Though you be tortured, tormented and tried
By the fire's hot, angry breath?

Do you have faith to believe that your God
Will surely deliver you whole?
Can you stand proudly, proclaiming His power;
His assurance deep in your soul?

The fire can get hot; your flesh will recoil
But your spirit will march right on through,
Because through it all, His Spirit will guide
To do what He wants you to do.

We remember the three Hebrew children when faced with the threat of their lives, would not bow because they were certain their God was able to deliver them but even if He chose not to they refused to bow. How often do we bow before the idols of doubt, fear and unbelief? These are the days that Christians must remember that the righteous are as bold as a lion and that no matter what happens in our lives, God is able to deliver us. The Lion of Judah is well able. Amen
Love Diane
