I Need Not Accept
by Barbara Philbrook

I need not accept sin's cost as my plight.
Jesus died in my place, I am clean in His sight.

I need not accept fear of what will be,
for God provides faith which makes us carefree.

I need not accept any sickness or pain.
Jesus gave me healing when I was saved in His name .

I need not be bothered by evil of any kind.
I now have the power these spirits to bind.

I need not be discouraged by debt.
My financial needs will more than be met.

If I am to be the keeper of my brother as told,
there are riches I am yet to unfold.

Enough to meet my needs and so much more,
enough to help those I couldn't help before.

I need not accept worry over how I will learn.
The Holy Spirit will help me to discern.

I need not accept that death will take me.
I'll be going home with God for eternity.

I need not accept negativity of any kind,
and you, my friend, this same peace can find.

Accept the salvation being offered to you,
and you will live in this same peace too.
