Most Commented Religion / Spirituality Poems (1,340)

In the darkness of the night
When the stars shine so bright
And through my hair blows a gentle breeze
Then I, with my face to the sky
Stand in total awe, overcome
That all this my God created
And my soul lifts and soars
Singing praises to the Ancient of Days

If Jesus came and walked today
The streets of Adelaide
What would he find, what welcome there
For Son of God this day

Houses of God so big and grand
Are shuttered and tightly barred
Keeping possessions within their walls
Away from vandal's grasp

To worship there within these houses
At times not specified
Is something that one cannot do
For God's been locked away

At Christmas time Christ's been removed
Replaced by cold Xmas
Celebrating birth of Christ
Is now almost forbidden

And everywhere and all around
The forces dark they gather
Anything to do with Christ
They ban and transform to immoral

At Easter time you ask a child
What is this festive occasion
The Easter Bunny brings us toys
And lots of lollies for munching

What about the cross where Jesus died
And then His resurrection
They look so blank and shake their heads
Dunno nothing bout that one

Leaders of churches here and there
With changes advocating
Bible's outdated, not relevant
Our own rules we should be making

Universities, the seat of learning
Teaching truth that's new
All roads lead to salvation
And Jesus was only a jew

Crime is rampant, life is cheap
Police are busy on the streets
Pull them over, meet the quota
Have to raise more revenue

Family clinics, they call themselves
Who murder the unborn
They on earth who have no voice
In Heaven screams reverberate

Oh how Jesus would weep and wail
As these streets He'd walk
To see the pain and suffering
That man inflicts on man

Is this the world I envisioned
When first I did create
Creatures dark and ugly
Their souls twisted by hate

And yet when further He did look
Some signs that were encouraging
Maybe all was not yet lost
There's good amongst this other

Groups around both small and large
Meet to worship God
The large on Sunday at the church
The small at other times

Some Pastors, Ministers, Preacher men
Believe the word of God
Bible truths are taught therein
And Living Waters flow

Yes there's those that upright stand
And abortion they do fight
Give the unborn right to life
Let their silence be loudly heard

Frustration shows on policemen's face
Those that battle crime
Solve the crime, find the one
So the courts can set them free

And even there in universities
There's those that disagree
Only path to salvation leads
Trough Jesus, God's Son He be

Good men, good women
They are all around
Live their life Christ's way
A community on their own

And yet His heart it sorely ached
So many lost their way
How He wished they would come
And repent of their evil ways

For God so loved you and me
His only Son He sent
That all might have eternal life
Blessed by the King

Come and listen those who will,

The time is ripe to have your fill,

Let fear, anger, sorrow and bitterness flee,

And be filled with love and joy and ease,

And laugh and watch in wonderment the moon and the stars in the filament,

For all to soon our life is quenched,

With regrets that cannot be undone,

So come alive as I have, and open up our hearts as one,

And cherish every second we have on Earth, for we do not know the time of our rebirth,

And remember what we "know" inside is to live and laugh and love as one,

To be at peace, to teach each other and be willing to learn and sacrifice the need to scorn,

To smile with my heart and love with my soul, is my intention , from this moment on.

From beyond the stars
I call to you my
children..

I am He who burns
brighter than the
sun..

I dwell in light
unapproachable..

And the blackest
night cannot devour
my love..

I have heard your
crying in the night..

I see you poverty,sorrow,
and fear..

And you are lost in
your soul..

In the land of the living
you have trouble..

And one day you will
lay down in the dust..

Do you think I will
forget you..?

Will dead bones be
your inheritance?

Oh, No! my love..
For I will perform
a marvelous work!

I dream of you..

I have thoughts of
kindness for you..

To build you up and
not harm you..

Don't you know me?

Have you not heard?

Who else can command
the day?

Do you not know that
I can breathe life
into these dead bones?

Oh,yes! my love..
I can do great things..

I am not far from you
though you think I am..

Have you not heard?

Has not my name gone
into all the earth?

I am from everlasting
to everlasting..

And it is my good pleasure
to do a great work in you..

And I tell you this..
I dream of my inheritance
For this you are..

No one can snatch you
from my hand..

Do you not know me..?

I am that I am..

The Almighty!

Oh Dear God,
I humbly bow before you.

My heart is trembling in thought,
Cannot sleep at night.

Morning comes by so fast and,
my eyes want to cry.

I ask you here in prayer to,
help me dear Lord to find
my sleep.

Lord I ask you to hold me near
and watch me sleep, so my
nights become nights to day
becomes day, Amen ~~~

There existed nothing and nothingness existed
Except He who was without beginning and end
He created the heavens and the earth
And He spoke the light into existence
Once spoken there was day and night
Waters above the earth and on the earth
Receding waters leaving land showing
Spoken were the words to bring forth plants
Plants in such amazing abundance
Flying, crawling, running, swimming beasts
All were by Him spoken into being
Only left was man to create, in His image
Into a garden in Eden he was placed
Created was woman, for them to be one
All this world to us was given
Given unto us, for us to care for it

A gentle voice within my soul
It whispers quietly
You are my child, my loved one
In you I am well pleased

How blessed is this voice to hear
And walk this path so righteous
Please grant me strength in all my days
His footsteps to follow

This thing I pray with all my might
That never should I falter
This light within to shine without
And glorify You mighty

I am a leaf blowing in the wind
Just being tossed around
Where I fall is undefined
Somewhere on the ground
Take a journey out of mind
No reason to bog it down
No longer to a tree confined
A flight of freedom unbound
Nurtured green now a refined
Gold turning soon to brown
I am free of life's daily grind
Floating smile without a sound
I tumble away flying blind
In apex of my glory crowned

Oh that ALL my children would crave my LOVE,
to avoid the destruction My Word's spoken of.
To reach out in Faith to my extending arm,
forever to save them from judgment's harm!

Oh that my children from doubt tw'd be turned,
so their souls in hell's fire shall never be burned!
To see me as their Heavenly Father who cares,
Who sacrificed my own Son, their souls to spare!

Oh that my children might open their eyes,
to see Satan's deceptions and all of his lies!
Lies that he tells through his music and drugs,
to all those who listen and idolize his thugs.

My message is plain, my message is clear,
it's for ALL to receive with a listening ear.
The time has been set for all sin to be judged,
"Away from your sin!" - I beg you...be nudged!

I've paid the price of sin - for all of you IN FULL!
And yet still, you rebel and then think 'it's so cool!'.
Another of his lies that leads you further astray,
from My purpose for you, in My Heaven to stay.

Oh that My children from Me might not run!
The gifts I've given in the earth, moon and sun,
were given to you to show great glory of Me,
As THE ONE bearing 'LIFE' like fruit on a tree.

The impending judgement of my prophetic Word,
is not for My children that love Me, how absurd!
It's reserved for 'him' whose whole purpose is evil,
whose goal is men's souls and all wicked upheaval!

Don't scoff and mock at those children I've sent,
to lovingly tell you the Straight and Narrow Way.
Just open your heart to My Spirit, then repent,
of your sin that 'I' lovingly died for on that day.

The judgement that's coming at it's appointed time
will have no bearing upon you, if you're of mine.
So listen intently to the voice within your heart,
I placed it there, so that your choice might be smart!

Turn away from influences that cause you to run
from the Truth of My Word, and the Love of My Son.
Open your heart in Faith from doubt and unbelief,
so your troubled soul can know MY peaceful relief!

This poem was written most certainly NOT by God,
but the message it contains, His children will nod,
to be accurate and true in it's testament of Love,
for ALL of you whose sin was paid for, from above!

Today is the day that eternity can change for you,
if your heart to Christ is given, to be made anew.
Only He can do that which is needing to be done,
open your heart and accept His Truth as THE ONE!

Judgment is Reserved for those that stubbornly rebel,
not for those that desire to be saved from that hell,
so don't delay, don't wait, don't for a minute put it off,
trust in HIS sacrifice for YOUR SOUL as being enough!

Not because I possess riches or fame,
But for the simple pleasure of doing
For another what I can.

The power to influence is not something new,
It really is something we all do.

The message here just makes it clear,
Do it on purpose and it becomes more dear.

I am an Influencer by design – it’s something deep inside…
That continues to shine – when it’s sharing time.

There’s great value to accrue,
Because
What you give out always comes back to you.

It’s a boomerang effect – so always select
To make someone smile
By going that extra mile.

What a humbling path,
Using my special gifts this way

I am an Influencer…

I can, and I do make a difference in people lives!
