From Exodus 19:5: “ Now, therefore, if you obey My voice and keep My covenant, you shall be My treasured possession out of all the peoples. Indeed, the whole earth is Mine.”

Obeying God’s law
All shall fall short
Darkness consumes
Flesh’s evil tort
Sowing falsehood’s seeds
Emptiness reigns
Corruption rules
Flesh’s sinful chains
Witnessing Jesus
Calvary’s death
Covenant breaks
Flesh’s final breath
Praising Risen Lord
New freedom’s call
Harvest ready
Grace building faith’s wall

From Galatians 6:14-15: “May I never boast of anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to Me and I to the world. For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is anything, but a new creation is everything!”
Amen. Good one
