This is our confidence,
The way we have conducted;
Attesting our conscience,
To those that are corrupted.
God-given sincerity,
Not by fleshy rather pure;
Showing you the severity,
How temptation tries to lure.
Holy wisdom by His grace,
That you read and understand;
A clear conscience to embrace,
And avoid the sinking sand.
I hope you will comprehend,
As you partly understood;
Pride can easily offend,
The Lord and what He did good.
My conscience has reminded,
Of the greatest benefit;
How the pure light has blinded,
Those not spiritually fit.
I feel irresponsible,
What I am planning to do;
As what is acceptable,
Unto God in being true.
My plans are purely human,
As I could say yes or no;
Faithfully through acumen,
Of knowledge and wisdom flow.
The Son of God, Jesus Christ,
Who had preached upon this world;
A clear conscience not enticed,
As the plan of God unfurled.
For all promises of God,
Were spoken with the Amen;
Never once had they been flawed,
Never either now or then.
God has strengthened and anointed,
Everyone who believes;
In your mind He appointed,
Persistence that one achieves.
God has sealed and has given,
A down payment in your heart;
For faith and hope for Heaven,
A joy for you to impart.
