Looking to God in All Things

Looking to God in all things, His promises surround.
Seeking diligently, we labor together as His treasures abound.
Adding to our faith, His treasures multiply in abundance.
Given wisdom from above, we yield to Him, who supplies.
Looking to Him in His sufficiency, we strive as He surprises.

Looking to God in all, we stretch forth in obedience for virtue.
Strengthened in stretching and straining, we rejoice in truth.
As truth takes hold, freedom from what once bound releases.
Pressing forward, we give ourselves to Him, who increases.
Freedom from past bondages, we run freely and furiously.

Looking to God for knowledge, in all things, His Word directs.
Obedience to His Word and Spirit, understanding connects.
In the knowledge of His will, destiny is pursued freely.
Gaining wisdom and knowledge, treasures release plentifully.
As peace and surety take hold, hope in Him anchors readily.

Looking to Him in self-control, fleshly desires are kept in check.
Kept in check, we don't get bogged down in worthlessness.
Responding to His promptings, we flow freely in His purposes.
Filled with zeal towards His plans, we delight in Him gloriously.
Expressing His character in all, self-control leads victoriously.

Looking to God, adding perseverance to our faith, we overpower.
Perseverance in place, difficulties, and opposition won't devour.
No longer bound by failure and insecurity, we press forward.
Pressing forward in opposition, Satan in check, we conquer.
Persevering under pressure, His Spirit reigns liberally in power.

Looking to Him alone in godliness, we rise above all that defames.
In pure devotion, He sees those given to His purposes to proclaim.
Hearts purely devoted; He embraces with His Sovereign purposes .
Given to His sovereign purposes, in pure devotion, we sing praises.
Fruitful in godliness, gifts spill forth abundantly for His purposes.

Looking to Him in brotherly kindness, treasures extend consistently.
Compassionate and unselfish, brotherly kindness reigns abundantly.
Filled with warm-heartedness, brotherly kindness ignites others.
For those passing our way, friendliness leaves a kind fragrance.
Generous to all coming our way, we extend His benevolence.




Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things, you will never stumble; for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 1:10-11
