Written by --- Song writer Smith Adrian Frederick
Have you lived without love, a life of tears? Have you searched for life's hidden meaning, Or is your life filled with long and wasted years? Wasted years, wasted years, oh how foolish, As you walk on in darkness and in fears; Turn around, turn around, God is calling, He's calling you from a life of wasted years. There is someone who knows and always hears; Give it up! Give it up! The load you're bearing! You can't go on in a life of wasted years.
Have you lived without love, or a life of tears? Have you search for life’s hidden meaning, or is your life filled with long and wasted years?
The song goes --- Wasted years, wasted years, oh how foolish, as you walk on in darkness and fears; Turn around, Turn around, God is calling, He’s calling you from a life of wasted years:
There is someone who knows, and always hears: Give it up! The Load you’re bearing! You can’t go on in a life of wasted years:
I would highly recommend you to go to YouTube on your device and listen to this song sung by Jimmy Swaggart:
The anointing he has when he sings is beyond explanation! We all have spent time in our lives without God and his word, even though, some (like me) who was raised in church, raised up going to evangelist meeting where the anointing was, or like me, brought up in church, but was not serious about this kind of life and just wasting years doing our own thing.
Maybe you are up in years and have never turned your life over to God, or you were born again, but lived your life the way you wanted, a life of sin:
Sin is sometimes, or seems to be would be better to say, joyful, but if continued, it will destroy you and may even take you to hell:
Sin will drag you down into the mirery clay as too say and sometimes, so deep it seems impossible to get out:
If this kind of life is you, then do what this song says! “Turn around, turn around, God is calling; He’s calling you from a life of wasted years:
Turning around is not just long enough to get you out of trouble and then, go back into the old lifestyle again!
Have you ever done something displeasing to your parents and they corrected you? You straightened up for a while, then you sunk back into your old way of living:
It is the same as a Christian, you sin, sin, and sin, then you say I had enough with this, I am going to change:
You start reading your bible; listening to good word teaching and doing good, then an old friend comes by for a visit and instead of resisting, before you know it, you are back to living the life of sin:
Living for God, must become your lifestyle, not an every now and then thing until you get in trouble again:
No, the life of God is and must be a continual lifestyle: You must realize, there is a devil out there that wants to keep you living his style, a life of sin!
He will keep people or bring things around you that look good and tempting to go back to his lifestyle:
No, this is where you need to buckle down and firmly say, “No devil!” “I am not following your ideas or following your footsteps anymore:
Don’t think he will give up that easy either: You must put fleshly and sinful desires down daily: You must get into the word and in prayer and praise daily, in order to keep him off of your back:
Getting into the word and prayer, must be a daily thing: Also, stop watching dirty movies that will only drive you back into the old lifestyle:
Believe me, it is work, to stay on the straight and narrow, but the benefits are beyond your imagination.
There is a song, written by David Ingles!
“Keep the switch of faith turned on!”
Lay hold in faith On the promise of God And on His provisions (Sung) Pay no attention to your head Circumstance or physical position When the question comes From a neighbor or friend How you feelin' today? Answer them back with a Bible quotation Don't let your mouth Put you away
You have authority over principalities Don't let them steal you blind They'll try to draw you To the soulish arena The realm of the mind Stay right where you are Confess your faith I believe I receive it now! Your faith will give Substance to the things you desire You'll have it through God's own power
Keep the switch of faith turned on Keep the switch of faith turned on Cast not away your confidence Keep the switch of faith turned on
We cannot live out lives like a light switch, on one moment and off the next, then on, then off:
No, this lifestyle must be constant and only way to do it, is to keep the switch of faith turned on:
REMEMBER: JESUS IS LORD!
