The power of continuos prayer

Good afternoon, I have a friend who lives is Wagner S.C. His name is Billy Colvin. He writes some of the most inspiring poems and short stories that I have ever had the honor of reading. I believe I have shared some of his writings on this post before.

As it turns out his son writes alittle also. They sent me a poem that Billy's son wrote the other day. It is really good. I will be using it in my message on Sunday at St. Helena Baptist Church. Here is a copy of.....

ON BENDED KNEE

Life’s journey is so uncertain,
The Master’s plan oft hard to see

We should seek the light we need,
From down on bended knee

When Satan tempts you daily,
Kneel down with certainty,

That nothing makes him tremble,
Like a man on bended knee.

God’s power is an awesome sight,
So many fail to see.
Stand tall, stand proud, stand very strong,
But start on bended knee

You see he sent his son to die,
Hung high on Calvary
With two thieves, for you and me
Thank him on bended knee

Tell others of his grace and love
His power and majesty
Please remember it is a gift
So pray on bended knee

The streets of gold are waiting
Submission is the key
It does not cost a thing you know
Just a bended knee

What Gospel means to me!

Good afternoon world. I have been busy and haven't taken the time to finish my latest blog message. I will finish it in the next couple of days. In the mean time here is something for you to think about.

PS. I know my messages are often long but whose time are we on anyhow? Ours or Gods. Take time to be Holy because He is Holy!

GOSPEL. This is what the Gospel means to me!
FIRST IT MEANS GOOD NEW! BUT WHAT IS THE GOOD NEWS?

G=God created us to be with Him—

(Eph.2:10- For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk there in.)

O=Our sins separate us from God (look at the world) (Isaiah 59:2, Your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid His face from you, that He will not hear!)

S=Sin cannot be removed by good deeds (We all fall short of the glory of God)

P=Paying the price for sin, Jesus died & rose again!

E=Everyone who trust in Him alone by faith, has eternal life! (Eph. 2: 8-9-For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is a gift from God! Not of works, lest any man should boast!) (Boast about Jesus)

L=Life eternal means we will be with Jesus forever!
