“THE GREAT AND AWESOME DAY”

“And I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke. The sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be those who escape, as the Lord has said, and among the survivors shall be those whom the Lord calls.”

Joel 2:30-32 ESV

Give thanks to the Lord of lords who alone does great wonders

Showing wonders in heaven and on earth, blood, fire and smoke

Praise Jesus, for his mercy rescues and his steadfast love endures

Learn from him for he is gentle, lowly in heart, and easy is his yoke

Behold the great and awesome day of the Lord our God is coming

After the moon is turned to blood and the sun turns to darkness

Blessed are all those who come unto salvation by Jesus our King

Everyone who calls on his name shall be saved by his righteousness

For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be those who escape

Sinners whom he predestined he also called, justified and glorified

All those who the Lord calls shall be saved by grace through faith

For this reason our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus, suffered and died

Exalt our Lord and risen Redeemer forevermore!

“so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.” Hebrews 9:28 ESV

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
