What is God’s purpose for our lives?
Why are we here? Just to survive?
God has a purpose in His mind
By His design, that we might find.
What is His purpose? What’s at stake?
Why are we here? Why He create?
That we might die with Him to sin,
Obey His word, and live for Him.
He put us here upon...
“Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set...
As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him. And two blind men sitting by the road, hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried out, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!” The crowd sternly told them to be quiet, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”...
“O Lord, who may abide in Your tent?
Who may dwell on Your holy hill?
He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness,
And speaks truth in his heart.
He does not slander with his tongue,
Nor does evil to his neighbor,
Nor takes up a reproach against his friend;
In whose eyes a reprobate is...
It was God’s will to crush Him,
That He might die for our sins.
By faith in our Lord Jesus,
All our sins are now forgiven.
But faith not just words spoken,
Faith results – obedience,
Our sins all now forsaken,
As we now do walk with Him.
We walk with Him now daily,
Our desire now for Him,
We...
“Surely our griefs He Himself bore,
And our sorrows He carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten of God, and afflicted.
But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we...
When life has its ups and downs,
And you’re tempted now to frown,
Look to God, of much renown,
So that, in fears, you’ll not drown.
Listen to His every word,
Listen not to what’s absurd,
Believe in Him, what you’ve heard,
Not the wrong way now do swerve.
Peace in God you want to live,
Your...
Time, it is not on our side.
People, many filled with pride.
Witness, many speaking lies.
Many people God defy.
Truth, it has been turned to lies.
Christians, many Christ deny.
Many on their sins rely.
Liars lies into they buy.
Christ, who died for all our sins
Rose from dead o’er sin did win...
“Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God. Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your...
“Thus says the Lord,
‘Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind
And makes flesh his strength,
And whose heart turns away from the Lord.
For he will be like a bush in the desert
And will not see when prosperity comes,
But will live in stony wastes in the wilderness,
A land of salt without...
“Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts which wage war against the soul. Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may because of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the...
“But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; for you once were not a people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received...
Darkness looming, faces glooming,
Many people lies assuming.
Turning tables with their fables,
Many liars they enable.
Many people follow idols,
For their sins, they are not idle.
Words are spoken, they not bridle,
But for them, they are recital.
Liars plenty fool the people
Who they want to...
“Woe to the sinful nation,
a people whose guilt is great,
a brood of evildoers,
children given to corruption!
They have forsaken the Lord;
they have spurned the Holy One of Israel
and turned their backs on him.”
“Wash and make yourselves clean.
Take your evil deeds out of my...
“Then they answered Joshua, ‘Whatever you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go. Just as we fully obeyed Moses, so we will obey you. Only may the Lord your God be with you as he was with Moses. Whoever rebels against your word and does not obey it, whatever you may...

Hear the Spirit calling.
He’ll keep you from falling.
Tenderly He’s calling,
“Come and follow Him.”
Walk with Jesus daily.
Don’t give in to lazy.
Folks may call you crazy.

“Incline your ear, O Lord, and answer me,
for I am poor and needy.
Preserve my life, for I am godly;
save your servant, who trusts in you—you are my God.
Be gracious to me, O Lord,
for to you do I cry all the day.
Gladden the soul of your servant,
for to you, O Lord, do I lift up...
“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to...
