Analysis of A Man of Faith



You bow your head to pray
for God’s peace to enter your spirit every day.
You know the worldly trouble you face
with sinful nature trying to invade your space.

A man of faith is what you are
with sacred knowledge, understanding and
the wisdom that will take you far.
You pray for those whose spirits are battered by
pain as your faithful ways lift them up to keep
they are spiritually sustained.
With a prayer that is bold
it breaks down corrupt walls that are solid
like gold.

You are a man of faith with towers of strength
to hold on to and trust in God to take you
spiritually through.  
A man of faith that conquers doubt.
your spirit is like the pollen that is scattered about.
Your word you use as a shield of armor barricades
unpleasant strife.

And your love always keeps God first in your life.
You are a man that displays so much care.
for those who have overwhelming sorrow to share.

Your devoted faith in love
is given from above.

You are blessed with dedication in your worship,
faithful in your walk, and eager to learn and believe.
You can be a vessel of truth for those who are
easily deceived.

You do not let the adversary’s  pessimistic
thoughts keep you enslaved.
Your faith is unmovable and your words are firm
that you do not allow yourself to rave.
You are flawless in your witnessing and
incredibly brave.

You “Dominant Man” of remarkable Faith
speak with confidence and dedication.
Minister to all broken spirits as God’s words
wash away negativity with spiritual edification.

About this poem

This poem is for faithful men who display true spiritual faith from within not from a dogmatic religion who hide behind the bible. Or choose to activate their faith when it is conducive for them. Men of faith display their inner and outer faith no matter what. You can see a men's faith from their fruit not by rhetoric.
