Vision And Desire

Lord of my creation, can I be set apart from this world to walk wholly devoted to living in communion with you as my heart desires? Can I be released from the curse of my sin and the sins of my fathers to walk in your favor as those to whom you have shown favor before me? Can I walk in the power of the mighty one who created all that I know and serve faithfully the purpose of my creation? If so, then it is the true desire of my heart that this would be my destiny in your heart. It is my desire to bring forth to the God of my heart the fulfillment of His purpose in the breath that He gave me. This life I live has lost its attraction in light of my love for you. So what am I to do? All things in this life seem to lead to confusion and disappointment, but my love for you brings me joy and fulfillment. My faith in you will not fail me in that the demands of this life will be answered by you in your perfect time and in ways that I may not yet see. Like the birds that you love I will not fear for my needs, for you love me more than them as your Son has revealed and I stand in this promise. It's my desire to live to love your heart and to watch my faith increased by your hand in my days in response.

Can I be reborn even in my years to see clearly the heart of the one who gives life and to walk only in the words of your mouth free from the teaching of the world? Let me walk freely in your spirit I pray. Free from the blindness of deception that causes my heart to fall short of your pleasure and your promises. Remove from me the bonds of servitude to this world that I walk in and let me proclaim by my life the mighty power of the one God that men may once again be drawn to join you in true fellowship and faithfulness to the heart of the almighty God. To share the knowledge that prosperity is not by the contrivance of men but by the favor of Gods heart for them in His service and fellowship. I am aware that there are secrets to walking in the fulfillment of your promises. They have become secret not by your choice, but because the world has forgotten them and the liar would hide them from men.

You have given me a vision that my heart receives solemnly, but it's realization requires your hand to bring forth. You will break your silence to bring forth revival of the truth to men. They will be broken free from the chains of dogma and ceremonious acts to walk honestly in the spirit of the one God. The darkness will be once again pushed back by the light before the end of time will come and give hope to those walking in a spirit of darkness. The raw reality of your word of truth will bring freedom and great rejoicing when they realize the naked truth of the one God. You did not hide it from us, but the world in it's own wisdom has deceived itself with the wonder of its own power and its false truth is fed by the liar to become all that they know. Cursed is his way and hollow the dreams that he gives. The lust for power leads many to live falsely and share in the damnation earned by the liar whose mouth spews the garbage of disease and poisonous thought that gives death to those who receive it.

But there is a storm coming upon the face of mens hearts. A holy rain storm brought by your spirit that will wash the spiritual eyes of men to see the truth of your word and their place in this world. Like the scales falling from the eyes of Saul, they will once again see. Once again the hearts that wander in the darkness of the world are ripe for the harvest. But when it comes, the world will respond with condemnation and will call those who see fools. The world will say we have already answered that in our wisdom. We have explained it away. It does not exist! It will respond in frustration and anger when its wisdom is denied. The enemy of mens hearts will respond in growing rage and seek to devour the hearts that bear the mark of the lamb. His fear will grow as it begins to tell the timing of Gods plan foretold and it will compel him to remove those who see. But for each one that falls, ten more will be given sight.

Only by faith in the One unseen, and by the vision of the truth will seeing men be spared in the days ahead. Darkness will compress and become darker upon itself as it is pushed aside to reveal the light of truth. It will shrink back as eyes are opened, but as it does, it will become more powerful and rage against men who stand against it. Only the true power of the One God in them will save them as they come to have true faith in His love and His power. The fight of the ages, largely unseen since the beginning of time will rage openly on the face of the earth and men will be forced to choose faith over fear once again.

There is only one power in the world that gives life. There is only one relationship that satisfies longing and it was your purpose in our creation. My heart knows that yours must be deeply weary with the wickedness of men. In the early days of Noah, your heart was grieved by the wickedness that inhabited your creation and it caused the death of all but a few. Soddom and Gomorrah felt the wrath of your repulsion to the wicked sins of the people who perverted your gift of life and the offer of relationship. My mind cannot begin to imagine the depth of your grief now. I pray my Lord, help me to live in your ways all the remaining days of my life and not be part of that which repulses you. Help me to see clearly the truth and the intentions of your heart and to walk in them and fulfill my part in them. I pray my Lord that I may come to seen by your eyes as one who understood and responded to your heart.

An Observance And Observing True Reality...

As Easter approaches, I begin once again considering how our God sees our observance of an occasion as I always do and also what He might truly desire of us in observance above any of our trivial, man inspired traditions . What I come away with in firm conviction is the understanding that the most trivial of my sins, the least of my crimes against God, had the power to forever damn me in His judgment of me and send me into unending torment. And that knowing this one thing in truth and as reality, is key to my correct posture before God in honor of His purpose in the event. That key being the horror of knowing that the price of my very least sin was the shedding of my Christ Jesus' blood and His horrible suffering, because the reality of this brings the deep rending of my heart in awe and gratitude and it makes possible my true joy at the relief of my sentence because of what He has done. I believe this is a part of what God would desire from us in observance of Christ's death a...

The Real Power To Affect Change

I know that my position here may not be popular on it's face at first, but I think it could be most revealing of where some hearts are - even my own, by the response that it evokes... I think it's possible that we're all partly responsible for the chaos and darkness that is constantly swirling around in the digital tornado that is the constantly hammering news these days. While we may not have contributed to it directly by our own actions, it's a good bet that we may have contributed to it by our own inaction. Where does the true power to change things come from? And who is our best example to follow in this life? Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed." Mark 1:35 (NKJ) "Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God." Luke 6:12 (NKJ) "Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought ...

Judging, Judgment And Judge...

"I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark. I will not judge those who hear me but don’t obey me, for I have come to save the world and not to judge it. But all who reject me and my message will be judged on the day of judgment by the truth I have spoken. I don’t speak on my own authority. The Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and how to say it. And I know his commands lead to eternal life; so I say whatever the Father tells me to say.” John 12:46-50 (NLT) A lot is said these days about "judging", but in the midst of that popular societal buzz and the assertive comments that come with that conversation, I have a question: If God has called something sin and we simply agree with what He's said,... are we judging or just repeating and declaring the truth? When He walked the earth, Jesus spoke about judging and He pointed out the danger of our judging...  “Do not judge other...
