I  STAND

 

 

I stand and look above into the sky of deepest blue

The flow of crystal honesty in reflections of Messiah’s Majesty,

And then far beyond

I see into Heaven Itself;

The Kingdom of Sovereignty

The True King, the True Ruler of All

Even my Shepherd who now holds my hand;

His Hand of favor in confidence upon me

Blessings of the Holy Spirit Presence

Rest with trust upon my life and those I love,

Rest in His Peace within my spirit and soul.

Yes, with Divine Wisdom within my heart

I stand before the Throne of Holiness

Once called, now loved and forever kept close

As I know I will stand strong till the end

Even while I hold Eternity in my hand!

OUR  FAITH

 

 

Faith in our Faithful One,

It flows in the Kingdom’s full crystal stream of Living Water

Most precious Gift of heavenly Life

From Adam and Eve to the present day, current generation

In the new strength given to believe in Messiah the Savior

Through the Spirit power to receive Faith

Joined to the Father and the Son by the Holy Spirit

Grace breathed into the depth of our being and Faith rises up in Knowledge

Grows as that small good seed sown in Wisdom

Until God brings us to our feet, even as a young child learns to walk

Later runs with the wind in many directions, hope and trust in the Lord anchored

While we climb hills, then mountains, then learn patience

With confidence we hold the Shepherd’s hand through life’s journey

Our Lord and Savior who lives in our hearts with His Peace

Daily renews our minds as we eat the Living Bread of His Word

Unfolds a prayerful path of victory in another human life

Triumphant Love the small gate seen from the beginning

Becomes a giant radiant pearl entrance into  the City of God

With every faithful step Holy Spirit discipline guides

Our eternal joy of being truly alive in Messiah Yeshua

Believed, then received from the Father

Faith in Messiah our heavenly food and drink, Glorious air we breathe

Greater than large diamonds set in purest gold,

Faith in our Faithful One!

THE GOD OF ISRAEL

 

 

God will never forsake His people and land, His inheritance

“Those who call upon Him, who call upon His Name in Truth”.

By the will of the Father

By the Word of His Son

All of Creation came into being-

From nothing to everything,

Even angels from a “time” long before mankind;

Many things too great for mankind to ever understand!

Yet, the pure flow of God’s Love made perfectly known

Through a nation formed through Abraham and Sarah,

Abraham the father of our faith

And through faithful Moses with Aaron, then Joshua;

The many prophets and servants of the Divine One,

Then revealed by the Redeemer, spoken about

And written about by Moses in Genesis

Through King David and prophets great and small over centuries,

Finally made known in humility out of one of Israel’s tribes,

The Way of Life, Light and Truth to deliver out of Satan’s impossible snare of death!

Songs of shepherd children greeted with faces of joy beaming

Joined by angels celebrating the coming of salvation by a Savior

The Triumphant One, Israel’s eternal High Priest;

As God’s mercy invades His earth, His land of inheritance

Taken firmly in Hand

Psalms of temple priests loudly sung in fulfillment by children

The Seed of Joy in Bethlehem to be planted

“The joy of the Lord our strength” made known

Through the Jewish people, by Israel so long ago;

Today the same, destined for greatness

The Home of Jerusalem

The Millennial Throne of Messiah Yeshua to reign over the earth

In a Majestic foretaste of the New Jerusalem to descend from Heaven

Within Father’s Glory and Splendor the brilliance of Zion’s Light,

The Eternal Love for Israel fulfilled

By the One who vowed to never forsake His people and their purpose,

The new Heaven and Earth, His own!

PRAYERS REPEATED

REPEATED  PRAYERS

 

 

A faithful prayer that does not let go

But hangs on purely

Strength to endure given

To hold tightly about the waist,

As arms about one loved

In the Holy Spirit, from the heart,

Both near and far away;

A common trickle of needs

Can grow quickly into a stream that floods,

Our troubled and deceitful world

Traps, snares and pitfalls

Physical weakness and financial struggles

So many ways to stumble,

To trip and fall down!

But our Lord watches constantly and sees all,

Picks us up and steadies

Lifts up and brushes off

Cleanses anew as we continue to move forward

Eyes that are now fixed on Him in Truth

And do not look to all the sides and distractions

Or turn to the right or to the left,

An honest gaze firmly set in steadfast love

To live in peace as much as sincerely possible

Peace that rules from within our spirits

The Peace of Messiah who powerfully rules

From the only Eternal Throne of Glory.

SENSE OF FUTURE

SENSE  OF  FUTURE

 

 

More than common sense or imagination

As “born again” from above

Humans spiritually enlightened

Armor of Light now covering multitudes of men and women,

Our destiny is seated timelessly with Messiah on His Throne!

To forever grasp that triumphant cleansing rest

To enter fully into such a purifying victory

Has an honest and fair price-

True Life in exchange for the usual earthly-worldly existence;

Basic human nature shown in natural growth and maturity

A long journey of “self”that can only fall flat to the ground,

Ends in darkness, eternity in unspeakable torment

Death swallows all vain human effort in one sudden gulp.

The sacrificial Cross of our Redeemer ignored and despised by many generations

Yet, fully honored by the “chosen few”;

Those who reject the cup and toss Bread from God onto the ground

Run out of choices;

Those who embrace the Lord’s Cross and “die to self”, awaken

Enter majestic revelations, knowledge of the only eternal reality!

Peace and Love and Glory,

The future as spoken and written by Prophets of Old

Even spoken clearly by Messiah Yeshua Himself in Living Words,

Carried freely by the Holy Spirit into a new heart

A renewed healing breath for the mind and soul

Righteous pleasures of faithfulness,

As a humble body, spirit and soul before the Father;

The future holds no conflicting surprises of fearful anxiety to those who trust Him,

Who have already seen a glimpse of the end from the beginning

No sunset will darken

No sunrise will bring terror

For all those who hold closest the confidence of God

As fully theirs even in perpetual youthfulness.

 

 

 

CONFUSION

CONFUSION

 

Like a thin cloud settles down upon you

Or a loose garment of clothing that unravels from your body

And suddenly the mind and will weaken

Distracted, even scattered about;

Anxiety, fear and anger, raw competition

The fruit of this world-

When to pick it

How and where

By your self or with help

Ripened on the vine or branch, or off;

Lots of people come and go

Many different things written or spoken

All directions pointed to

Thoughts only become more twisted

So many words just fall to the ground,

Very little remembered!

Eyes close at last

Tired hands cover the ears

The head turns upwards in surrender,

All seems lost, nothing found;

Then, a tiny “sparkle” appears

Nearly as a star

Far beyond the moon,

And the small light begins to grow

The hearts awakens a little

And seeks to draw closer

As this new light becomes brighter, much brighter

Something calms the soul within

Quiets the mind, clears the thoughts

And this Light only grows into a new path seen

Leads to a “narrow road” discovered

Comes at last to a Gate of Humility;

Another one gladly bows

And enters fully within the Shepherd’s arms.

REALITY

REALITY

 

 

When Heaven’s true Light shines on a body, soul and spirit

Invisible wings lift the heart high above the world

It soars in places thought unreal, unimaginable,

An inner Peace at first as a consuming mystery, covers the soul

Then the human nakedness is slowly covered by whitest white clothing

A garment truly made by Divine Hands

Eyes search about until fields of flowers can finally be seen at a distance

In beautiful splendor, colors and shapes most artfully exquisite

Gentle breezes carry new scents that blend more than any perfumes,

The fragrance of Life somehow taken hold of

With little understanding and knowledge

Humility and tears of joy stream down

Until the spirit begins to sense a Greater Presence

What was unknown, without any desire to taste and even begin to see;

But now the entire being yearns and bursts with longing to grasp just a little

To hold closer what is truly experienced

Reality hidden apart from time as much more than earthly or worldly treasures

The essence of Life rises into a radiant Golden Temple without words to express

Until Holiness is seen in the One spoken of by many as in a myth, an old story

Brushed off as a distraction that only weakens a man, keeps busy a woman

A Name often hollered out, shamefully used in anger;

Yet the Voice of Messiah Yeshua is heard with kindness, gentleness-

“Go now and leave your life of sin.

I belong to you; you belong to me.”

 

HIS TRUTH

HIS  TRUTH

 

 

TRUTH written on many hearts

As salvation flows in newest gold

Highlighted with brightest silver

About perfected jewels accenting purity throughout;

Though long ago carved into stones

By the very Hand of God,

The Spirit of Messiah fulfills all TRUTH

Revealed by His new, eternally living Covenant

Made for all mankind!

The most powerful mountain that towers beyond Creation,

Sovereign authority covers far ahead and trails far behind

Shades beautifully from the sun’s intense heat of the day,

Ushers in rain as needed in abundance;

Joy rushes through the human spirit and soul

With a single drink from the crystal clear River of Life-

Living Words that move out from the Throne of Grace!

The TRUTH of Yeshua Messiah has triumphed as planned,

Powerful faith now overcomes the world;

In Heaven’s Gift of wisdom and strength

From the Heart of God, freedom pours out

Deliverance in the delicate aroma of Life overcomes death,

The scent of the greatest fragrance drowns the stench of darkness

Much more than perfumed plants in a rare old city park

Or the pleasure of a hidden ocean shoreline

With a private beach of whitest sand dotted with moments of secret delight.

The Name that towers above all

Always with kindness of eternal compassion given

Always Divine care by the eternal TRUE Lover of Jerusalem,

His chosen place on earth for Zion’s Temple of TRUTH

Throne of Decision

His love for His world, His world shown in the Light of Glory

Shared by all of His children

Reborn in “Second Birth” through the Holy Spirit of Messiah

Who is TRUTH, the Lord of Life!

 

A KISS

A  KISS

 

 

The purest kiss of Truth

Upon the heart and soul,

An everlasting gift from our God

The lover of our spirit, soul and body

Poured out in kindness upon us,

Poured out in mercy upon the Earth

For a thousand generations, and more;

The clear path of redemption revealed

A trail that leads from Adam and Eve on

Through Seth, through Enoch

Through Noah and Shem

Through Abraham and Sarah

Isaac and Rebecca

Jacob and Rachel and Leah,

With Zilpah and Bilhah;

Most treasured history held by modern Israel!

This jeweled legacy woven into finest fabrics of sacred heritage

Through Moses and Joshua

The Twelve Tribes joined as one

All carried in the arms of Divine love,

A nation of mercy displayed, favor given,

A people always held close to the Lord of All;

Covenant peace, covenant prosperity established

In Messiah’s inheritance.

Even as “today” unfolds before our eyes

Things destined from the beginning,

Loving kindness perseveres while justice endures

From the very Heart of forgiveness;

Long suffering is comforted by the Throne in Heaven

The endless struggle of good versus evil

Human effort struggles until Divine intervention triumphs,

Prophetic Words in a world, in a nation

Revelation given through a man or a woman.

Redemption long ago became a finished plan

Worked out in diligence of a Holy Sacrifice;

Judgment, justice also in the “lake of fire” for Lucifer

His many angels as well as humans who choose rebellion,

Enemies against the Holy Kingdom.

Yeshua Messiah’s eternal reign of Truth and Beauty

Covers us by the Majestic Temple of love and peace;

The end will come with a new beginning,

As dramatic sunlight on the distant horizon

The new sun “rises with healing in its wings”

Like new life bathed in kisses upon a newborn child

Miriam and Joseph in marvelous delight,

Truth in Messiah’s Way of Life

Always triumphs through God,

Victory of kisses of purest love never to end!

 

 

NOTHING CAN

Christmas, Heaven's gift, King of the Jews, kiss of truth, Messiah Yeshua

NOTHING  CAN

 

 

“Love never fails…”

Love always carries another close to the heart

Strong arms that embrace

A steadfast will in commitment,

The hand of God upon you;

Nothing can distract or pull away

The body, soul and spirit anchored in solid Rock

Authority of the Holy Name of the Lord

Most secure in Godly refuge;

Forgiveness covers with freedom

Birds flock to seasonal homes far off

And freedom returns in more fearless, shameless love,

A Peace settled forever within a strong Tower

Untouchable, high above this world.

As a glow from above descends

Goodness encloses another one chosen

Nothing can separate what God has joined together

Eternal fellowship of sacrificial love

The fragrance of Life poured out,

Never to be held back

Though a most fragile, delicate beauty.

Honest eyes look into the pure eyes of another

They take pleasure in what is sensed

Like in covenant marriage, the other always first

Freely offered continually

Lived out daily;

A “Kiss of Truth” often shared as minds are renewed

Hearts are enlightened

Wisdom from Heaven calms as the future waits in Hope,

Kindness in such brightness from Messiah

Grace that draws each closer,

Closer and nearer to You.

 

Christmas Blessings.
