Holy Spirit, come and set me free
From the plans and chains of my enemy
Evil forces are trying to bring me down
To make me lose my way and my eternal crown

I ask God’s living water to wash over me
To deliver, cleanse, heal and set me free
I come to You to refresh my weary soul
It is in Your Presence that You make me whole

Priceless to me is Your faithfulness and love
Proceeding from Your throne in heaven up above
Your righteousness and justice flow high and deep
Reaching to the heavens and down valleys steep

I find refuge in the shadow of Your wings
Under Your feathers my spirit worships and sings
There I am safe from my enemies’ hands
I place my trust in Your omniscient plans

Psalm 36:5-7 – “Your love, LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. 6 Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, LORD, preserve both people and animals. 7 How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.”

Psalm 23, 36

For those arriving in the region of the damned
There’s no way to escape the demonic high command
Powerless are those under the demon’s strength and might
They are led to their chambers in the blackest of hot night

The worst day on earth would seem like heaven there
As stench-filled heat robs their gasping lungs of air
Demons arrive to rip their souls apart
For those who scorned God and from His ways did depart

Fear and torment await those who did not fear the Lord
They did not choose God or believe in His Word
Many are destined for that foreboding land
A place without God called the region of the damned

Matthew 10:28 – “Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.”

Mark 9:47-48 – “And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell, 48 where ‘the worms that eat them do not die, and the fire is not quenched.”’

John 3:16-21 – “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.”

Matthew 18:6-9
Mark 9:14-27; 42-49
Luke 16:19-31

I see water from heaven flowing free, out-poured
It’s not rain but comes from the throne of my Lord
This water is alive and refreshes my thirsty soul
It comes without cost to heal and make one whole

There is enough for all it will never run out
Ask for the Holy Spirit to see what it’s about
He’ll baptize you with fire and power from above
Love, grace and mercy will descend like a dove

This gift comes to fit you to serve our great King
Great power and boldness you’ll see it will bring
Wait in God’s Presence for Holy Spirit power
Know with a surety you were born for this hour

John 4:10-14 – “Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”
11 “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? 12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?”
13 Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

Acts 8:14-17 – “When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria. 15 When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit, 16 because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 17 Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.”

Acts 19:1-6
John 4:2-26
John 7:37-39
Ezekiel 47:1-12

Why is the pull of this world so strong?
I am a citizen of heaven, that’s where I belong
To be known down here doesn’t carry much worth
Our time is fleeting on this place called earth

One thinks it so grand to have money and fame
Why does it matter that people know your name?
Our search for significance is never wrong
God put in us this desire to connect and belong

I want to be known up in heaven above
That I carried out my duties in faithfulness and love
The only thing of worth that I long to hear
Is the Lord say, “Well done,” as heaven draws near

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 – “Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. 14 For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.”

Ephesians 2:10 – “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

Ecclesiastes 2, 3, 5, 12

If you only knew of the power inside you
When you believe by faith and prove My Word is true
Step into the wondrous that your faith requires
You will be rewarded with your heart’s desires

Faith only works by believing the unseen
Then confess with your mouth before it’s even seen
Change your hope to faith as you pray and then believe
You must maintain you have it before you can receive

Faith operates in dimensions that you know not of
It activates with power when it’s mixed with love
Faith, hope, and love form a cord that’s hard to break
Those who look to Me in faith, I will not forsake

Hebrews 11:1-3 NKJV – “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.
3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.”

Hebrews 10:35-39 – “So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. 36 You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. 37 For, ‘In just a little while, he who is coming will come and will not delay.’  38 And, ‘But my righteous one will live by faith. And I take no pleasure in the one who shrinks back.’  39 But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.”

Romans 10:8-10 – “But what does it say? ‘The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,’ that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: 9 If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”

Hebrews 11
Romans 4:18-25

Believe-be convinced by, trust, have confidence in, consider, honest, regard is true, except as true, credit, count on, rely on, depend on, fall for, go for, think, hold, maintain. 

You cannot reap what you do not sow
In heaven above or on the earth below
How can God answer a prayer not said?
Or multiply money, not contributed?

In giving we receive many times again
You must plant a seed to reap a dividend
What you then reap looks nothing like the seed
A bountiful harvest where there once was just a need

In God’s economy love must be your aim
Do nothing out of greed, vainglory, or fame
The fruit you produce in your harvest tells a tale
It’s quality is shown by every small detail

Galatians 6:7-10 – “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. 8 Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. 9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.”

Galatians 5:22-25 – “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.”

Philippians 2
Galatians 5:13-26 

Me:
Let the fear of the Lord never depart from me
The way I live determines my destiny
I have a share in Christ if I hold firm to the end
I must follow His ways and on Him depend

Lord:
Your hearing is sharpened by your will to obey
Some believe for a while, but when tested fall away
They cannot enter My rest because of unbelief
Their hearts went astray, the time they loved Me was brief

Some have left their first love and forsaken Me
Repent and return to My ways I plea
Faith without works lead to the place of the dead
Lose your life for Me to gain heaven instead

2 Peter 2: 20-21 – “If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. 21 It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them.”

Matthew 10:39 – “Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.”

Hebrews 3:6-19
Ezekiel 33:12-20
James 2:14-26 

The highest form of treason is to steal the Lord’s glory
Do not desire the praise that belongs to God only
Let another praise you and not your own tongue
With your words you can be saved or you can be hung

Do not use God’s power to draw people to you
In humility of soul give the Lord His due
The crucible for silver and the furnace for gold
A man is tested by the praise he is told

Don’t let ambition control you or vain conceit
Consider others better or you’ll walk in deceit 
Those who desire greatness must be the servant of all
Glorify the Lord and in your own eyes be small

Ezekiel 1

Me:
When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You
Your angels surround me in dimensions out of view
The Bible comes alive as in faith I call it out
I believe what You say and will choose not doubt

I won’t fear when terror tries to visit in the night
I know You are near with many angels out of sight
In Jesus’ name the enemy must flee
Your blood defeated them at the cross on Calvary

Lord:
Because you love Me, I will come and rescue you
I will answer those who believe My Word is true
Since you have chosen to put your trust in Me
I will deliver you from your enemy

Faith is the key you need to open any door
Call forth those things that are not, to be forevermore
Go to My Word to get hope in time of need
Stand on its promise to have it manifest indeed

Psalm 34, 35, 91
2 Kings 6:8-23 

Me:
I want to hear Your voice, Lord, clearly in my mind
So I can know Your intents and with them be aligned
As I daily search Your Word, lead me in Your way
Teach my heart to be like Yours so I don’t go astray

Lord:
Come, draw close and listen, to My beating heart
As you wait and ponder, My thoughts I will impart
I have much to show you-too wonderful to know
If you spend some time with Me, revelations I’ll bestow

Prepare the soil of your heart to contain My seed
Daily water with My Word so your faith can feed
In due time, a harvest comes tended by My grace
You will be rewarded on the day you see My face

2 Corinthians 12:1-4 – “I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. 2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows. 3 And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows— 4 was caught up to paradise and heard inexpressible things, things that no one is permitted to tell.”
