Good intentions

by royowen

Good intentions

Those good intentions will not change,
the state on Earth won't re-arrange.
It's only faith that turns the tides,
and on its trust creation rides,

Procrastination thinks itself
can leave all problems on the shelf.
But I say this, our wondrous Lord,
in Heaven can have all restored.

A mountain moves by one man's faith
but fails if one leaves all to fate.
It's only God who grows the tree,
and only He who sets men free.

For I know this I can rely,
so I will pray until I die.
Those good intentions will not change,
the state on Earth won't re-arrange.

As Jesus said, Earth's in your hands,
if you by faith still understands.
The things I've done I grant to you,
if you believe your dreams come true.

Before Jesus left this Earth He assured the disciples the things He did, we would do, it wasn’t a maybe, it was the truth, yet are they being performed? If we have the Holy Spirit within us, then we can do what Jesus did, raise the dead, heal the sick, cast the demons out, these aren’t my words, they are Jesus’ words. The power He displayed is within us,

John 14:12
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.


Luke 17:21
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. KJV
Romans 8:17
And if children, then heirs--heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.
