Breath of Holy Spirit
Immersed in what’s to come
Pressing ever forward
Rhythm of Heaven’s drum

Nourished with love from Christ
His grace becomes faith’s light
Pressing ever forward
Evil’s darkness takes flight

Father’s resolute Word
Heaven’s daily breadcrumbs
Pressing ever forward
Tranquility becomes

Depth of sin forgiven
Peace rises with Christ’s view
Pressing ever forward
Each heavenly breakthrough

Eternity’s truth leads
Solace finds eyewitness
Pressing ever forward
Covered with joy’s fitness

Do not look to your hope but to Christ the source of your hope.

From 1 Corinthians 15:28: “When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subjected to the one who put all things in subjection under Him, so that God may be all in all.”

Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892) was an influential English preacher.  Even in modern times, his writings and many sermons have remained a constant source of encouragement to Christians around the world.  He has often be referred to as the “Prince of Preachers.”

Christian, wear your shield close to your armor and cry earnestly to God, that by His Spirit you may endure to the end.

From Ephesians 6:14-16: “Stand, therefore, and belt your waist with truth and put on the breastplate of righteousness and lace up your sandals in preparation for the gospel of peace. With all of these, take the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one.”

Alistair Begg (born 1952) is a Scottish-born pastor who has served many years in the United States.

Tuning in
Father’s nearness
Faith’s timely linchpin
His Word’s trusted clearness

Closing in
Mercy transforms
Truth shall always win
Father’s grace takes life form

Moving in
Destiny stirs
Father’s light knows when
Salvation’s peace concurs

Taking in
Hope marks return
Savior now within
Enemy’s darkness turns

Giving in
Calvary beams
Love overcomes sin
Redemption reigns supreme
