Battle of the "God's"

It is said, ‘Do not test the Lord your God,’

He is the God of every living thing,

He formed the world and crafted the Heavens,

He brings rain, yet can also bring fire.

God brought a drought that lasted three years,

Commanded His prophet, flee to safety,

A stream for water, raven's gathered food,

God is a God who provides daily bread.

God can bring about endless abundance,

God will sustain the needs of His servants,

Glory be to God, Father of all light,

Redeemer of our lost tormented souls.

His stories are endless, His deeds are good,

His love for us is never running dry,

His source of grace flows from His huge heart,

He will never forsake righteous people.


Elijah trusted the All-Powerful,

He stood before king Ahab fearlessly,

He confirmed Ahab as the cause of drought,

He knew God would protect Him, so stood firm.

Now let us see the one true God who reigns,

Test your “God,” for He will never answer,

Baal does not respond, pray louder to Him.

Baal does not come, He must be too busy.

Build an altar to the true God above,

Twelve stones, for each of the divided tribes,

Bring four jugs of water, sacrifice need,

Empty three times over the offering.

Come see, God is the only God who rules,

He reigns down fire, that which Baal cannot,

Now the people can see God’s great glory,

To end the drought, He provides rain we need.

Ceremony

My dear bride groom, As You prepare our banquet, I ask, take charge of my house, Run it with Your grace. I lovingly display, These windows for Your judgement, Let Your mercy shine through them, That they may be cleansed. I submit to Your light, Renew my heart to softness, Smooth over the sharp edges, So it absorbs hate. I am but a servant, I take You, as my only God, A declaration to hold, from this day forward. I am devoted to You, for the better or the worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and health. You have me to hold You,  To cherish You when I’m blessed, To praise You in the valley, Death cannot part us.

My Mountain

My God, seated upon the highest mountain, A monument from the foundation you laid, You are my rock, a towering fortress in the sky, Where clouds engulf the earth. I flee to you for safety, A fortified position of strength, Where only the wise will tread, Your aura can be felt for miles. Fleeting winds surround You, My enemies dare not come near, You bring a thunderous wrath, An echoing shout rumbling through valleys. Yet for me, Your summit calmly rains down blessings, Life giving water springs growth around, Soaking through for firm roots, Flowing in my veins, up to my heart. Come with me Lord, Let’s take this love wherever we go, Like the tabernacle set on Jerusalem, You are  the mountain in me.

Bountiful God

Lord, Spring forth well water, Fill my cup with Your grace, Let it overflow, Always everlasting. Lift my great burden, Come let my shackles break, Freedom from my sin, By your great sacrifice. Now I see the truth, In Your fruitful meadows, The golden fields, A season of new life. You water the ground, You shine in the valley, You care for nature, And clothe me in splendor.
