Christ Jesus Is The Great Bridegroom!

Christ Jesus Is The Great Bridegroom
The God-Man Come From Virgin Womb
Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room
Do Not Delay, He’s Coming Soon
Trim Lamps, Don’t All Your Oil Consume
Be Ready, Watch, And Don’t Presume
But Long With Joy For Your Groom
Who Died And Took God’s Wrathful Doom
Then Rose Alive Up From That Tomb
By Faith Alone You’re Just And Bloom
For On Your Sin God’s Laid The Boom
Christ Comes To All Your Gloom Consume
And Be Your Joy Like Sweet Perfume!

An Election Day Prayer


First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. 1 Timothy 2:1-2

It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes. Psalm 118:8-9 

Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation. Psalm 146:3

Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. Psalm 20:7

The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD sits enthroned as king forever. May the LORD give strength to his people! May the LORD bless his people with peace! Psalm 29:10-11

Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against his anointed, saying, "Let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us." He who sits in the heavens laughs . . . Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath is quickly kindled. Blessed are all who take refuge in him. Psalm 2:1-4, 12

Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus, we come to You asking for mercy. You are King of kings and LORD of lords! You rule and reign over all things! You possess all authority in heaven and on earth, and You do whatever You please in all the universe! You hold the hearts of all kings, powers, and authorities in Your hand to turn them like a watercourse, wherever You please! All kings, presidents, senators, congressmen, governors, mayors, generals, admirals, and all other authorities bow down to You! The nations are like a drop in a bucket to You and less than nothing! You are the LORD God omnipotent Who reigns over all forever and ever! We praise You and thank You for Who You are and for what You've done! Thank You, Jesus, for dying on that cross, bearing the wrath of God for our sins, and rising from the dead so that we might be saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone! Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Father, we beg You to give us better leaders than we deserve! Please grant us leaders who know You, fear You, trust You, and obey You! Please give us leaders who are humble and tremble at Your Word. Please give us leaders who know they have no authority except the authority which comes from You! Please grant us leaders who know they will give an account to You on the day of judgment for how they use their authority. Please give us leaders who will do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with You! Please give us leaders who will justly punish those who do evil and righteously reward those who do good according to Your Word! Please give us leaders who will surround themselves with godly and wise counselors and who are godly and wise themselves because they meditate on Your law day and night! 

Please give us leaders who pursue peace, love, and justice according to Your Word. Please give us leaders who speak the truth in love and pursue honor, integrity, and godly character according to Your Word. Please grant us leaders who will work hard, by Your grace, to glorify You and serve others. Please grant us leaders who lead the way You want them to lead. May they care for the poor by truly helping them, not by merely giving money away, for even You say in Your Word if a man will not work, let him not eat. Please give us leaders who will stand up for the poor and oppressed and those unjustly condemned. Please grant us leaders who do not show partiality and honor You with their words, speech, and conduct. Please give us leaders who will stop the murder of millions of unborn babies through abortion. Please give us leaders who will stand up against sexual perversion and who will stand against the transgender mutilation of the young people of this nation. Please grant us leaders who will ban the evil of abortion, leaders who will reject sexual perversion and transgender ideology; leaders who will protect the religious liberty of individuals and churches and who won't take away the church's tax exempt status because we preach against sexual perversion; leaders who will protect its citizens; and leaders who will be good stewards of financial resources and use those resources in ways that please You. Please give us leaders who have the courage and boldness not to give us what we may want, but to give us what we need, according to Your Word! Please give us leaders who will refuse to steal resources from people through taxation so that they might be rich and live in luxury themselves. Please give us leaders who will truly serve and protect the people they lead and represent. Please grant us leaders who will work so that we might have freedom to serve and obey You in all the ways You call us to serve and obey You in Your Word. Please grant us leaders who will make it easier for us to carry out the callings You have given us and to make disciples of all nations, teaching them to obey all that Jesus has commanded! May the leaders of our nations lead in such a way that You are most glorified and Your purposes for this world are fulfilled! 

Please grant this to be a just and righteous election where there is no voter fraud, no cheating, no one voting who is not lawfully eligible to vote, and no other kinds of corruption or wicked interference. Please grant peace in the land - let there be no violence or rioting. Please grant a peaceful transfer of power. Please cause us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us.

Please save those running in this election! Please turn then away from evil and cause them to fear You, trust You, obey You, and submit to Your will and Word in every area of their personal lives and public lives.

Please keep us from being anxious, no matter who wins. Please remind us that You are sovereign over who wins - You are in sovereign control over all things, and You are working them all together for our everlasting good! No one has any authority unless You grant them to have it, and they cannot do anything whatsoever without Your permission. Please remind us that You are the King over all the kings of the earth, and please cause us to trust in You! Please keep us from all political idolatry! May we trust in You and not in man! 

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed by Thy name! Thy Kingdom come! Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven! Please deliver us from evil! Please help us to choose righteously and wisely, for we know that we will give an account to You on the day of judgment for why we vote and how we vote. Oh Father, You know better than us what we need! Please grant us what we need, even better than we ask and deserve! Please cause us to want what You want and to choose what You choose and to be content and to trust in You! For Jesus' sake! Amen!

Christ Jesus Is The Faithful Slave!

Christ Jesus Is The Faithful Slave
The Only One The Father Gave
He’s Wise And Holy, Pure And Brave
Who Died And Rose And Came To Save
There’s No One Like Him, All The Rave
God-Man Divine, No Traits He’d Waive
But Took On Flesh Our Way To Pave
Crushed By His Father’s Anger Wave
Then Rose Alive Up Out That Grave
And Though We’re Evil, Sin Deprave
By Faith Alone Our God Does Save
And Sanctify Like Christ Behave
On God’s Strong Hands Our Names Engrave
All Your Sins Jesus Forgave
Now You’re God's Child And Holy Slave
Who Will Be Faithful, Ready, Brave
For Christ Alone You’ll Love And Crave!

"That's My King!" In Matthew 24!


Christ Jesus Is The Temple Stone
Who Would Be Killed And Overthrown
Like Him There Is No Beauty Known
He Speaks Such Words Like Never Sown
He Bore God’s Wrath For Sins Atone
Then Rose Alive God’s Glory’s Shown
So Trust In Him By Faith Alone
You’ll Be His Bride, Bone Of His Bone
God Will Adopt, Make You His Own
For When Christ Comes The Sinners Groan
And All The Wicked Overthrown
All Knees Will Bow Down To Him Prone
Gives Mercy Free To All Who’ve Flown
To Him Who Rules Upon His Throne
And Grants You Pleasures Pure Unknown!

That's my King!

Christ Jesus Is The Center Stage
Even In The End Times Rage
When Saints Argue The Coming Age
And War Like Fighters In A Cage
Christ Is All The End Times Rage
It’s All About His Coming Age
He Died And Rose, God’s Wrath Assuage
So Trust In Him, Don’t Work For Wage
He Saves From Sin That Does Outrage
He’s Coming Back To Turn The Page
To History’s Glorious, Golden Age 
He’ll Come And Conquer With Rampage
For Deepest Pleasures Set The Stage
They’re Found In Him Our Joy And Sage!

That's my King! Do you know Him?!

Christ Jesus Did It! He Will Save!
Endured Unto The End He’s Brave
And Died And Rose Up Out That Grave
For God So Loved The World He Gave
His Only Son To Face The Wave
Of All His Wrath For Sin Deprave
By Faith Alone All Sins Forgave
In Christ We Are God’s Righteous Slave
All Christ’s Words Will Happen They’ve
Been Fixed Forever Like God Gave
To Warn And Love And Sinners Save
So We’ll Endure And God We’ll Crave!

That's my King!

Christ Is Preached To Every Nation
Then The End Will Come Salvation
By Faith Alone Justification
But Those Rejecting His Invitation 
God’s Wrath Will Punish With Damnation
The Abomination Of Desolation
Comes So Flee To Safe Destination
For Great Will Be The Pain Tribulation
Yet All God’s Elect From All Condemnation
Shall Be Saved Through Christ’s Propitiation
He Died And Rose And Grants Regeneration
He’s Told Us Before So Fight All Temptation
And Delight In Him Who’s Our Preoccupation
Eternal Infatuation And Holy Fascination 
Who Causes Extravagant Intoxication
More Than Anything Else In All Of Creation!

That's my King!

Christ Jesus’ Coming Shines So Bright
Like Lightning Flashing, What A Sight
From East To West They’ll See His Light
With Power, Glory, Greatest Might
He’ll Come And All His Foes Will Fright
His Words Won’t Pass, Forever Write
They Stand Eternal We’ll Recite
He Died, Endured God’s Wrathful Night
Took All Hell’s Anger At Its Height
Then Rose All Death To Crush And Right
All Wrongs And Sadnesses He’ll Fight
His Blood Shall Make Our Sin Robes White
He’ll Gather All Elect Contrite
Who Shall By Faith Alone Invite
The God-Man To Their Hearts Ignite
A Flame Of Joy He’ll Excite
Pleasures In Him, Our Great Delight!

That's my King! I wonder if you know Him today?!

Christ Jesus Comes When None Will Know
Except The Father Who’ll Bestow
His Grace And Mercy Down Below
Food And Drink And Marriage Though
Christ Comes To Judge, They’re Taken Low
And Swept Away In Judgment Woe
So Now Be Ready, You Must Know
That God’s Great Love In Christ He’d Show
When Jesus Died To Take God’s Woe
Then Rose Alive, God’s Mercies Flow
He Made Your Sins As White As Snow
By Faith Alone, No Works You Owe
In Christ You’re Sanctified And Grow
And To The Lost You Love And Go
To Share The Gospel, His Word Sow
For He’s Your Joy, Makes You Glow
He Comes To Conquer Every Foe
He Shall Return You Certain Know!

Christ Jesus Is My Shepherd LORD!

Christ Jesus Is My Shepherd LORD
I Lack No Thing In Him Adored
He Grants Me Peace, My Soul’s Restored
In Righteous Paths He Leads Me Toward
Life For His Name’s Sake, Christ The LORD
And Though I Walk Through Death Abhorred
I’ll Fear No Wicked, Evil Horde
For You Are With Me, Mercy’s Poured
Like Oil On My Head Reward
I Overflow With Joys Stored
Goodness And Mercy Chase Me Toward
His House Forever Where I’ve Soared
To Heights Of Pleasures In My LORD
All Because God’s Wrath Was Poured
On Christ My Shepherd Who’s Abhorred
Hell’s Anger Pierced Him Like A Sword
He Died And Rose For His Reward
All Praise, All Nations Are Restored
Now My Shepherd’s My Reward
Who Will Forever Be Adored!

What God Says About Homosexuality


I have set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Genesis 9:13

God's Word is very clear about homosexuality:

You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination. Leviticus 18:22

The men of Sodom . . . called to Lot and said to him, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may know them" . . . Then the LORD rained on Sodom and Gomorrah sulfur and fire from the LORD out of heaven. Genesis 19:4-5, 24

Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example, in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. Jude 1:7

And Pharisees came up to him and tested him by asking, "Is it lawful to divorce one's wife for any cause?" He answered, "Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, 'Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh'? So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate." Matthew 19:3-6; Part 2

And he said, "Are you also still without understanding? Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach and is expelled? But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander. These are what defile a person." Matthew 15:16-20

For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature, and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. Romans 1:26-27; Part 2

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11

Understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine . . . . 1 Timothy 1:9-10
