A JOYFUL NOISE

“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.” Psalm 100:1-5 ESV

“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!”

Celebrate our risen Messiah and his virgin birth

“Serve the Lord with gladness!”

May our faithfulness be counted to us as righteousness

“Come into his presence with singing!”

God himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything

“Know that the Lord, he is God!”

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was God

“It is he who made us, and we are his”

God sent his only Son to free us by his blood from our sins

“We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.”

Jesus is the good shepherd and he is our door

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise!”

Praise the King of kings for his mercy, peace and grace

“Give thanks to him; bless his name!”

Yesterday and today and forever the Name above every name is the same

“For the Lord is good”

Christ Jesus is the Living Word

“His steadfast love endures forever”

The kingdom of heaven is like hidden treasure

“And his faithfulness to all generations.”

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations!

I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager, but it wasn’t until a few of years ago that my writing became more spiritual and at the same time more prolific. As I shared my poetry with my wife, Hannah, and a few good friends, they encouraged me to place the poems in book form. My first book endeavor was “Because Of Him”, published in 2017. After hearing Sammy Murimi, the director of Share International Inc., speak at our church, I decided that the proceeds from that book would be donated to Share. In 2018, Hannah and I were privileged to go to Turkanaland in Kenya on a mission trip with Share. It was a life-changing experience for us both. Some of the inspiration from that trip is expressed in my second book, “His Cup Pours Out”. I include scripture verses with my poems because most of the poems I have written were inspired by reading God’s Word. I hope that as you visit this blog, you will meditate on the scripture verses and write down your prayers and thoughts for the week. My goal for this project has always been that God would be glorified! Robert M Hinnen
