Be Encouraged with Christ: Volume 1 Book of Poems and Encouragement

By S. Marie Bailey

We are to be encouraged with Christ. We are to be confident that we serve a great and mighty God and He will never fail us. Through all our tests, trials, and tribulations, God will carry us. God is faithful. He has already paved the way for us, to end our daily suffering and struggles. When all hope is gone, allow the Spirit of God, to pour His water upon your thirsty soul. Be encouraged, Jesus Christ is the potter, and we are His delicate clay, and by His infinite power, will put all of the broken pieces of our lives, together again. God will command His blessings to locate and overtake us. Every day is a new beginning for us to have faith and believe that God is able and capable to do great things, beyond our expectations, dreams, and desires. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulations that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God (2 Corinthians 1:3""4).

Be Encouraged

Enduring the cares of life we all get stressed, we take care of ourselves and help our kids get dressed, we try to achieve and do our best, but our bodies are aching and requiring more rest. Everyday seems like a test. We are being tried by the fire; we think God has left us hanging on a wire. Look up to the hills, God is waiting to release our desires.

*Be encouraged, God will never leave you nor forsake you.

Don’t Give Up

Iknow your bills are due, your finances are low, no one to tell, nowhere to go, you try to smile but everyday is blue.

Don’t give up there is hope. Read your Bible it will help you to cope.

I know you feel as though the windows of Heaven are shut, don’t believe the lies of the enemy because it will leave you in a rut. I found the answer in prayer. Look around there are blessings everywhere.

*Don’t give up. Never give in to the enemy no matter what comes your way.

The Last Shall be First

When you’re in a crowd, do you feel like an outcast? In a meeting and your name always seems to be called last. Don’t feel sad, these thing are happening for a reason. The devil is trembling. You are about to walk in your season.

You thought you were going to enjoy promotion, instead you received a demotion. Some made it to the top by enjoying fancy company and fine wine. Be encouraged you were last but now you are first in God’s line.

*The last shall be first. A time is coming when all who feel that they are left out will be brought forward.

There Is Hope

Is there anyone I can trust just to have a good talk? Someone who walks my same walk? I am surrounded but yet I feel so alone, my faith is not lacking, but I have these bills enough to send chills, I have a child to feed, my back is up against the wall.

I must not fall, I will not cut my arm and bleed, call upon the Lord. He feels your needs. I know I will be victorious and give God the glory. Encourage another sister and tell her my story. I was once brass, but now I am pure gold. Praise the Lord, my sisters, whether you are young or old.

*There is hope in God. Never lose sight of who’s in control of every situation.

He Will Make a Way

Isay my prayers every day. I’m looking in the natural and don’t see a way. I sit in my room and look up to the sky, I can’t help it, I ask the Lord, why? I get so disgusted at times. I want to give up and die, but the Holy Ghost is on the inside. Jesus will fight for me, He will never hide.

The Lord is available to us with arms stretched wide. My sister, the battle is not yours. Remember, it is always the Lord’s but be of good courage and patiently wait.

*The Lord will make a way today, tomorrow, and forevermore.

Hold On

In order to make it, ask yourself, Can you take it? Have you ever been told you can’t get rid of the common cold, just like your problems, they will not go away not until you discipline yourself and pray every day. The word of God, the Spiritual Man Medicine, your problems got you down but with praise you will win. Don’t put that curse on yourself and say you can’t take it.

With God on your side, you know you will make it. When life’s problems are tossing you like an angry sea, don’t jump off the boat, fall on your knees.

*Hold on until you see and feel your change come.

The Lord is My Helper

All of my help cometh from the Lord. I know it is true. I read it in his Word. The Lord is with me, He is my keeper, no one can take me, not even the grim reaper. King Jesus, He is my light. Not only in the day, but in the darkest of night. I don’t have to be afraid, the Lord is my shade. All of my help cometh from the Lord.

Lord, I know it is true. I read it in his Word. I love the Lord, Jehovah-Jireh. I gave him my life and he became my provider.

*The Lord is my helper, the Lord will help all those who call upon His name.

He Will Bring You Through

Are you living in an apartment? Lord knows your check can’t pay your month’s bill and rent. Your light and phone bill is due. Where is your money? You don’t have a clue. You pay your tithes, but the devil still tells lies. He says, The Lord will not help you. He’s ignoring you. He won’t bring you through.

Don’t give in to the negative thoughts of your mind.

The Lord God Almighty is with you. He is never unkind. Payday is coming for you and for me. Trust in Him, hold on, and you will soon see.

*God will bring you through. He has no favorites, what He does for one, He will surely do for the other.

In Due Season

Never wonder if God hears your prayers. Keep praising Him and do the right things. Your life will be easier, and what joy praises will bring. Obey the Ten Commandments, enjoy a godly life, and reap all His benefits.

Oh Heaven, Oh Heaven is our home. The bottomless pit of hell we dare not to roam. What we don’t have now, we will have up there, because in Heaven, there are blessings everywhere.

We serve a God who has more than enough. His hands are open wide ready to share.

It’s hard to keep praising when times get rough. Do the right things and enjoy the rich harvest. Sit back, watch, and listen to all your enemies call you blessed.

*In due season, your change is going to come.

Step out on Faith

Iknow the situation looks dead when problems are present, another day we dread.

Everywhere we turn there are problems on every hand.
