Song Story: THE MUSIC: Once again, I used the pattern of developing as the song progresses... with the common link "JESUS PRAYED FOR ME, JOHN 17:20..." By repeating the scripture reference over and over in this song, I've provided a tool for people -- NOT just dieters -- to realize what God tells us,
what God EMPHASIZES through Ephesians 6: 10 to end:
THIS IS A WAR FOR OUR SOUL! John 8:44, First Peter 5:8.
Satan YEARNS dearly to Destroy YOU.
Only God can save you. But He waits for you to ASK.
That's why I wrote this song.
Song Story: THE LYRICS:
It is intriguing, though sad, to observe in church groups that the most taught-against-sins…spoken of by many, not just by preachers… are seldom sins that attract the person speaking. Today it’s popular to speak against anyone who has an abortion or claims to be homosexual -- and these indeed ARE sins of self-focus that are ANATHEMA (sickening like rotting dog poop) to our Holy God. They’re even mentioned at the end of Revelation: Last chapter (22), verse 15 is a short list of sins God condemns (though of course Jesus’s entire Word is that the persons doing them can be forgiven if they’re truly sorry and ask Jesus to forgive them: Romans 10:9, and all of First John Chapter 1).
Yep, right there in Revelation 22:15, an inch from the end of God’s Bible, is listed people who are “sexually immoral and murderers.”
But, hey…. in thesis papers and compositions like you did in school, the most important facts always come at the end for emphasis. And what is God’s FINAL listing of sinners He will condemn? >>>
“Idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.” What are sins we commonly see in church people? People who live their days looking forward to things more than time with God… things like cars, TV, entertainment, and yes…. Food. It’s so easy to turn to THESE instead of to God for comfort….. which is one definition of IDOLATRY, and I’m always having to pray forgiveness against overeating, despite my deep love of God. Many of us are.And let’s not skim over the LAST SIN God EMPHASIZES: Gossip. Lying. Hurting other people with words.
Oh, brother and sister, HOW OFTEN SATAN WINS battles in OUR CHURCHES with these.
Every sin is anathema to Holy God.
If you overeat or spend tremendous time on things other than God including shopping, these ARE sins, sickening to God as adultery and homosexuality and immorality.
IDOLATRY: TURNING TO SOMETHING BESIDES
GOD FOR COMFORT & HELP.
That’s not a popular thing to say.
God’s Truth is often uncomfortable. But THIS Truth isn’t:
God WILL help you when you earnestly seek His help fighting temptations to sin. 1 Corinthians 20:13. Paul wrote of his own experiences in Romans 7 (described in HELP WANTED BLUES). And of the VICTORY that is available to you and me *when* we ask God’s help, in Romans 8, and in First Corinthians 6:9 (Don’t be deceived yourself) to 20 (“Glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s”).
Dedicated to our Answering God, 13 June 2011

And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the
love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them."
