(Footprints II) Prayer And The Sea



In a dream I saw the sea once calm and serene  Beneath  the setting  sun's  fading distant gleam  Where color on water runs Then a darkening sky with breakers crashing  on the shore nearby.  Then  I  went to a large white  building  several stories high. And  looked behind me  where waves as high As mountains were racing toward the shore I  once stood by. Every prayer is  a step on the straight and narrow stair. When we pray we are inside the  chichina glory already today. The ark of prayer shall lift up  above this world's waters of troubles, problems, and cares.  In  a  world of darkness,  turmoil, and wars. Jesus stands upon the  Sea of Galilee Calling out "Peace Be  Still" to you and me! I will  lead you  to  Heaven"s  shores! Look up  above! Every  believer lives beneath the shadow of  a  snow white dove!  The sea may  be  dark  and deep But  all power in the universe was  given to the Son  our  soul's  safe  to keep! The devil  with evil and  darkness may come, But God  living within  us is  the eternal power to overcome! For the final battle He has  already won!  Prayer is the pillar on which Heaven stands. Written by  the  omnipotent Holy hand. He  is  a lamp  unto my feet. He  is waiting for this  world  upon His judgement seat. No evil Him  can escape or beat. He  is  the  guiding light  down  His straight and narrow way. That  leads to glory  forever  someday!  A  church is an  airport where we find  our  salvation  ticket. Which  lifts us out  of the  swamp of despair, depression, and despond before we  enter the gate  wicket. The church  is an  airport terminal where we  fellowship and worship  And wait for  an  open gate  To board our flight to glory home!  When we  pray our eyes on the Lord stay. Don't  look  away. Doubt will sink you in the  Sea  of Galilee very , very quickly.  A  healthy soul is by  the word of God  fed.  An  empty soul like chaff will blow away dead.  Read your  bible and pray every day. God's word is undeniable and  infallible.  Only God  is almighty!  Over lesser things we have no cause to worry!  Rejoice ! Rejoice! Rejoice!  God's word is His voice ! Revival is His only plan for survival.  I  gave  Him  my life.  He  stands with me  in trials and strife. My heart is  His throne until  He takes me home.  The typhoon blows.  The blizzard snows . In  spring  blooms the rose. In fall we harvest what grows. Blessed are those whom truly God  knows. Thou who. never lost a battle  stand by me. Oh  Lord sing in my heart lovely Thy praises to the end of the ages. Till we spend together all of eternity!  Today save a soul!  Tell someone how God  has made you spiritually whole!
