Unity in Church

The church is a project of the Lord,

One place for the love to be shared.

One place where people will become sanctified,

Where everyone praises and prays all the time.


The church must remain in unity,

Always seeking to preach the truth with clarity.

The body of the church must keep unity,

Connecting everyone wholeheartedly.


Everyone should care for one another,

Helping each other in every new matter.

Becoming a holy and united body,

Walking to be Christ’s body.


Walking together, everyone will grow,

Strengthening their faith in God as they go.

Following together through the good path,

Never allowing anyone to walk alone.


In peace, everyone always needs to be,

So that everyone can accept each other with glee.

By accepting each other, everyone will learn to forgive,

Forgiving, everyone will learn how to love.


Love for each other is something expected,

In the Scriptures, it was mentioned.

For the church to be prepared,

For the day when Christ will come to take it away,

And in eternity, everyone will stay.

Thinking Alone

Nobody can change alone,

It needs God’s help to change anyone.

If we are alone, we will never notice.

Without God, the mistakes, we cannot see.


The mistake is to think we are independent,

To think we can do whatever we can.

Thinking that it is right to do all things,

Thinking that we are clever in everything.


Thinking the world is our private place,

And all personal desires can be made.

Thinking that we will never die,

We always live showing our lives.


Living like that, we are without direction,

We did not notice mistakes in our actions.

We need God’s intervention in our lives,

We can be alone for no more time.


God will enter inside us,

In the bottom of our hearts, He will speak to us.

We will see everything clearly,

We will see how sad life is without him.


God will plant a seed in us,

It is the seed to change us.

If we allow it, the seed will sprout and keep growing,

And our lives will be transformed.


The acceptance of God’s words will begin.

We will know the truth is in Him.

We will understand that everyone sins,

We notice we depend on God.


The Lord can save us only in this way.

When we confess all our mistakes,

God’s mercy will forgive everyone,

And forever, we will be under his protection.

Evaluation From God

The one the people rejected,

Before the Lord was a person very honored.

Many blessed works, they will do,

All days of his life, they will be faithful.


Many people judge according to their views,

They evaluate others by what they feel.

They do not do one judicious evaluation,

They choose the one they have more affection.


The rejected one may be very valuable,

Being to the Lord one person who is laudable.

God makes those who were fallen to rise,

People will see his power in front of their eyes,

Showing that only God can judge and approve.


Different from us, the Lord has a deep vision,

God looks inside, the mind and intentions.

He does not see only the appearance,

God sees the deepest essence.


The Lord sees what the heart has inside,

He knows the deepest secrets of each life.

The evaluation of God is very special,

Because He does not evaluate only the natural.

The Mouth

About the mouth, we must be careful,

Because the tongue can kill you.

She is a weapon so powerful,

After you say something,

The consequences can be disastrous.

 

With our mouths, we can say good things,

Or we can stay cursing,

We have the power to choose.

We know that after saying something,

There is no way to regret it.

 

Everything we say will produce an effect,

It can be something perfect,

Or it is just appointing a defect.

Do not matter what will be,

At someone, the word will reach.

 

Remember that all speech has an answer,

Everything you send to someone,

It will come back against you.

Before you say something, be thoughtful,

You can hurt too many people.

 

God already has said how should be our conversation,

Let it be for our brother’s edification.

They will fortify their faith.

We never must curse anyone!

We never must hurt anyone!

 

Our mouths must be a source of blessings,

And do not be a source of undoing.

It has been written in the word of God:

“What gets out of the mouth,

Leads people to destruction.”

 

Think a lot before you talk,

Use your mouth to bless everyone.

Then, the Lord will please about you,

And your produced testimony will be good.

Sinner

I am a poor sinner.

Of your grace, I am not worthy.

Many mistakes and transgressions, I did.

Your affection, I am not worthy of feeling it.

 

Even so, the Lord loved me,

Ridding me of a terrible destiny.

The Lord came and introduced himself to me.

Your word has changed my life.

 

The Lord is a God so marvelous,

He has rid my spirit of a terrible end.

Your hand came to rescue me,

To salvation, He will take me.

 

Only the Lord is God!

His benignity endures forever.

The Lord is so good,

Even the poor sinner, He has mercy.

To eternal salvation, He will take him.

The Calling to Salvation

The Lord does everything to save,

He sends people to talk in his name.

He does everything for the person to see,

He shows signs for the person to believe.


For God, the person is being called,

Each day, a wonder is revealed.

The Lord makes efforts to get that person,

For one more soul to get salvation.


The chosen one is valuable for the Lord,

It was for each of them that God sent the Savior.

Many people have one new opportunity,

And they will not be condemned for all eternity.


For his chosen ones, there is a project of the Lord,

Where his people shall come back to God.

They will come back to his mighty kingdom,

Uniting to Him as a bride to the bridegroom.


Many people, the Lord will call,

But He will not be heard for all.

They will prefer their own ways,

Walking alone to the death and abyss.


For the Lord’s voice, each one needs to pay attention,

When He calls, each one must be ready with disposition.

Because the Lord calls once for salvation,

It is the only opportunity to flee from condemnation.

The Power of Solomon

Solomon was a wise king and followed clever ways,

He was powerful during all his days.

Nobody could compare himself to him,

In wisdom matters, nobody could face him.


The kingdom was quiet and prospered in everything,

An abundant life, Solomon was living.

He got married to too many women,

And many concubines were on hand.


There were many women to be controlled,

There were one thousand that were counted.

Solomon fell in love with all of them,

And he began to disobey God’s commands.


The women led him to their abominations,

Leading him to follow their gods in adoration.

The heart of the king was being contaminated,

By God, this behavior was reprobate.


There rose many enemies against Solomon,

They declared war against him and the kingdom.

That was a tighten time for him,

And he knew his time was finishing.


The Lord said that he would stop reigning,

And the throne would pass to another after him.

Times later, what the Lord said happened,

This did not take too much, and Solomon died.
