SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS

They are humbly hidden from our sight

But are authentic and they’re true;

All spiritual blessings bestowed from above

As they’re combined with mercy too.

It’s when we’re adopted by our Heavenly Father

When we receive Jesus as Savior,

As His loving arms extend to us

When we accept His love and favour.

It’s His righteousness we begin to see

As old patterns of behaviour,

No longer have a stronghold

When Christ is Lord and Savior.

It’s His grace that we adopt

And His wrath no longer remains;

As we’re forgiven from all trespasses

And our lives are no longer the same.

It’s the hidden beauty of a heart

That desires others to be blessed,

It’s to have sincere intentions

Where love and joy will manifest.

It’s the sweetest of the fellowship

With God and His people too;

Who share a similar mission and a vision

To see souls saved through and through.

It’s an inheritance and a promise

Of eternal life indeed,

As we’re cleansed and we’re redeemed

Where many blessings we do see.

But the most important of them all

Is when the Holy Spirit sits;

In our spirit to confirm and stamp

We’re no longer destined for the pit.

The worldly standards are judged by sight

By achievements and success,

But God’s richest blessings are manifested

In those who humbly want God’s best.

Spiritual blessings are rich indeed

And although they’re behind the scenes,

They’re the most precious we could ever attain

Where by God they can be seen.

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are the sons of God.

“Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.” Romans 8:9-10
