Sonnet Poem: “The Protection of God”
When shadows rise and fears encircle tight,The Lord becomes my refuge and my shield;His wings conceal me far beyond my sight,A sacred strength the world can never steal.
The Biblical Poems page of Pinnacle Message Ministries is a sacred meeting place where Scripture and poetry breathe together. Here, the eternal Word of God is not rewritten—but reverently reflected, transformed into poetic expressions that stir the heart, awaken understanding, and draw the reader deeper into divine truth.
Each poem on this page is rooted firmly in Scripture, anchored by carefully chosen Bible verses that guide its rhythm, imagery, and message. These are not abstract reflections, but spiritually grounded works that echo the voice of the prophets, the prayers of the psalmists, and the redemptive heartbeat of the Gospel. Through vivid language and contemplative tone, the poems invite readers to pause, reflect, and encounter God beyond hurried reading.
This page is designed to engage both the spirit and the mind. Alongside each poem, narration sets the scene, exposition reveals biblical context, and interpretation offers spiritual insight—making the poetry accessible, teachable, and deeply devotional. Whether exploring themes of stillness, covenant, sacrifice, hope, or divine intimacy, every piece points back to God’s unchanging truth.
Visually, the Biblical Poems page is enriched with carefully curated imagery—open Scriptures bathed in light, ancient scrolls, mountains of prayer, and symbols of Christ’s love—creating an atmosphere of reverence and reflection. Together, word and image form a worshipful experience.
This collection is for believers seeking quiet meditation, for readers longing to feel Scripture anew, and for hearts hungry for beauty shaped by truth. Here, poetry becomes a vessel—carrying Scripture from the page into the soul.

The Word That Stands
The Word That Stands
Scriptural Anchor: Isaiah 40:8; John 1:1
Poem
The grass grows weary,
The flower bows its head,
Kingdoms rise like morning mist
And vanish by nightfall’s tread.
But the Word—
It does not age.
It does not bend to time.
It stood before the stars were named
And spoke the dust to life.
Before the first breath trembled in man,
Before oceans learned their shore,
The Word was with God,
The Word was God,
Unbroken—evermore.
Empires crumble, voices fade,
Truth is traded, trimmed, and sold,
Yet not one letter from His mouth
Has weakened, wilted, or grown old.
He speaks—and darkness loosens grip.
He speaks—and hearts arise.
The Word still stands when all else falls,
The voice that never dies.
Narration
This poem speaks of a world in constant motion—kingdoms rising, beauty fading, power shifting. Against this fragile backdrop, the Word of God stands immovable. From creation to eternity, the Word speaks life, governs truth, and outlives all human authority.
Exposition
Isaiah declares that while human glory fades, the Word of the Lord endures forever. John deepens this truth by revealing that the Word is not merely spoken language but Christ Himself—preexistent, divine, and active in creation. The poem mirrors this tension between human impermanence and divine permanence, showing how God’s Word remains authoritative when everything else collapses.
Interpretation
For believers, this poem calls for confidence. Faith should not rest in trends, governments, or emotions, but in the unchanging Word. When life feels unstable, Scripture remains a foundation that cannot crack. The poem urges readers to trust what God has spoken, even when the world rewrites its truths.
Stillness Before the Throne
Stillness Before the Throne
Scriptural Anchor: Psalm 46:10; Habakkuk 2:20
Poem
Be still—
Not silent from fear,
But quiet from trust.
The earth trembles,
Nations argue their power,
But heaven is not anxious.
Storms shout their opinions,
Waves rehearse their threats,
Yet God is seated,
Unmoved,
Unrushed.
The Lord is in His holy temple.
Let the noise of the world
Lower its voice.
Lay down your questions.
Release the need to control.
Stillness is not absence—
It is recognition.
Be still,
And know—
Not guess,
Not hope—
But know
That He is God.
Stillness Before the Throne
Scriptural Anchor: Psalm 46:10; Habakkuk 2:20
Narration
This poem invites the reader into a sacred pause. While the world shouts, trembles, and demands answers, God remains enthroned in stillness. The poem draws us away from chaos and into reverent silence before divine authority.
Exposition
Psalm 46:10 is not a suggestion but a command—“Be still.” It is a call to stop striving and recognize God’s sovereignty. Habakkuk reinforces this posture, reminding humanity that when God is present, all earthly noise must quiet itself. The poem reflects this biblical truth by portraying stillness as worship, not weakness.
Interpretation
Spiritually, this poem teaches surrender. Many believers pray loudly but listen quietly. Stillness trains the heart to trust God’s control rather than fight for its own. The poem challenges readers to step back, silence fear, and acknowledge that God’s reign does not depend on human effort.
Written on the Heart
Written on the Heart
Scriptural Anchor: Jeremiah 31:33; Ezekiel 36:26
Poem
No longer carved on cold stone,
No longer distant law,
He bends toward fragile hearts of flesh
And writes what grace has drawn.
He removes the weight of hardened will,
The stone that would not feel,
And breathes a pulse into the soul
That learns His truth is real.
His law becomes a living flame,
Not rules, but holy desire,
A whispered compass in the chest
Set gently yet on fire.
“I will be your God,” He says,
“My people, you will be.”
Not forced by fear or obligation—
But bound by intimacy.
The covenant lives within the heart
Where mercy makes its home,
And obedience flows naturally
Where love has overgrown.
Written on the Heart
Scriptural Anchor: Jeremiah 31:33; Ezekiel 36:26
Narration
This poem tells the story of a transformed covenant—one no longer etched on stone but inscribed within the human heart. God moves from external command to internal relationship, replacing hardened hearts with living, responsive ones.
Exposition
Jeremiah prophesies a new covenant where God’s law lives within His people, while Ezekiel speaks of the removal of the heart of stone and the gift of a heart of flesh. The poem unfolds this promise poetically, showing obedience not as burden but as love-driven response empowered by grace.
Interpretation
For today’s believer, this poem emphasizes inner transformation over outward religion. True faith is not about rule-keeping but heart-keeping. When God writes His will within us, obedience flows naturally. The poem reassures readers that God does not demand change without first providing renewal.
