Winning,,,,,,
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Michael P. Johnson
Other Poems by Michael P. Johnson


Winner am I through Heaven’s grace

Through Jesus blood and guts

Guaranteed to see God’s face

With no more ifs or buts

 

God’s mighty arms encompass me

His hand holds tightly mine

Grafted and growing in life’s tree

Through Jesus Christ divine

 

Through God’s own blood, I’m winning now

In Jesus, I’ll endure

By holding fast salvation’s plough

Victory’s more for sure

 

Through faith and trust by grace received

Repentant walking true

Trusting in Him I have believed

Will see me safely through

 

Long doomed for death, eternal hell

Today! I will prevail

I know my Lord, my God too well

That I should fall and fail

 

Living truly doubtless today

Through Heaven’s Promise strong

Convinced! I’m walking Jesus’ way

To where I now belong

 

Winning through Christ, life’s wine and bread

Thriving through Heaven’s flow

Should gratitude not raise its head?

All self, bow humbly low

 

Free of Satanic bonds of shame

Of deadly stench of sin

Singing, dancing, joyful aflame

Righteous through Christ within….

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
