My cup (this cup) Proverbs 24:10 – Poem Devotional By Dayanah Ahmawanah ðŸ’•

Proverbs 24:10 

 If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.💕

My suffering may be long 

But so is my peace 

For because of your strength 

I do not faint in these days of adversity 

Instead with all of my being 

I sing and I praise 

Never ceasing to pray 

Walking in fervent faith 

Fasting with a cheerful face

As in my hope I stay rejoicing

In tribulation I stay patient 

And my prayers stay instant 

As the darts from the enemy 

Stays coming 

I stay dancing, to the melody

Of  the song that You Ahba, have prepared for me 

And each step I take with You 

Makes me free from any trap of the enemy 

And you are my strength especially when I am weak

For your laws and your commandments 

Are a border of protection for me 

So teach me ahba in all of Your ways 

Let Your spirit guide me , through out my day

As You perfect me by Your abundant grace

To be a reflection  of Your Son, in all of my ways 

For He suffered long

But in You He never lost trust 

Even though full was His cup 

And it would have been  so heavy 

(For us)

No one else could have carried 

Christ’s cup

And He prayed for You to take it 

But You insisted He drink it 

And His desire was to fulfil it 

The will You had for Him

For He knew by You all things 

Were possible 

So He knew for You , He would give it all 

And He did, 

And I will,

We I  walk like Him 

Live in Him, 

Oh mighty God, I am sorry it took the cost or Your Son

For me to see Your everlasting love 

And I can only imagine, how your suffering for me has been so long, 

But here I am Ahba, no more waiting 

I am Yours completely

Every desire, every corner 

Of my soul and body 

Belongs to You my Father 

And I know this means for me 

Many blessings 

But also much adversity 

But in You I will be strong 

And I will not faint in these days of adversity 

For it is in my suffering I find my joy 

I find my assurance 

It builds in You my confidence 

And I will follow You eternally 

So the enemy can come for me 

But I will keep dancing to Your melody 

Of the song that You have prepared for me 

Following Christ’s steps that safely keep me 

And though long is my suffering 

Oh how much longer is my peace 

That is why my prayers will not cease

And I will praise You, daily I will sing 

For upon my heart Your commandments are written 

And with my pen, 

Are songs of thanksgiving 

For prayers and praises

Are my most powerful weapons 

In this spiritual war 

Of 

Flesh vs spirit

And I will take it 

This cup 

And though you fill it up 

For me it wont be heavy 

Because You have prepared me 

To take this drink , 

And make this  sacrifice 

Cheerfully 

Knowing I will gain EVERYTHING 

when I lose it all for Christ

Faithfully 

💕
