A CHILD WILL LEAD THEM
The church elect, may come to fail -Mt.24: 24
Where Satan, can deceive
But so that none should end in jail -2Sa.14: 14
God warns; that we believe
To change direction of His fold
From man! God makes His choice -Mt.22: 14
No army, need the truth be told
The Lord may choose one voice.Ex.3: 1
Great numbers are of no concern -1Ch.21: -
All life is in His hand
On Christ God's Word, the world will burn
Best this; we understand
Commandments can be quite profound
He'll scold to of guilt
God even shakes the very ground
On which man's faith is built
It's hard to leave one's hopes behind -Mk.10: 6
Yet Christ as Lord must reign
But facts are never hard to find
Once man is born again
But those still lost could feel inept
Although they've heard The Call
Their foolish pride may not accept
The facts from someone small -Isa.11: 6
In Truth it matters not the size -Jdg.6: 15
How long in Christ we've been -Jn.4: 28,29,39
God's least, may soon confound the wise -1Sa.3: 3-18
The proud; in Jesus' queen
Be free as doves yet like a snake -Mt.10: 16
Heed well the prophet's word -1Th.5: 20
The Lord is true, make no mistake -Jn.14: 6
Yet weigh everything heard -1Co.14: 29…..
