An Instantaneous Possession
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Gary James Smith
Other Poems by Gary James Smith


AN INSTANTANEOUS POSSESSION

An instantaneous possession
Is what is offered you
When you believe on Jesus Christ
You get His Spirit too

Full forgiveness and pardon
Upon repentance and confession
A generous portion of God's love
A token of His blessing

A new creation in Christ
Are those who are born again
And songs of praise fill the heart
Along with joyful amens!

Passion for souls our endeavor
We' re seeking to tell the lost
In spite of the magnitude of sin
Christ still went to the cross

And there our burdens He bore
Bearing them...everyone!
And offered the grace that's sufficient for faith
Precious blood of that crucified One!

So friend if your sin has you cornered
No where to turn or to flee
Then in repentance and faith
Call upon Him for His grace
And you'll be saved instantaneously!

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
