Are You Ready?

The Spirit of the Lord
Feels like Fire
Oh all consuming Fire
It burns in my mouth
Fuelled from the heart
I cannot contain it
Have to breathe it
Ready to receive it
Are you ready for this?

Possessed

I gave Christ all my weaknesses
I give Him my will every day
He does whatever He wants with me

You can say I’m possessed by Him
But He also is possessed by me
This is the Unity He seeks with Love

So I wonder… if you don’t believe
Either I’ve gone cuckoo
Or the Devil’s got hold of you

Speaking Softly

It occurred to me today
That as I write and pray
Offer and fast
Hear Him speak softly
In whispers in my heart
Things that assure me, frighten even
That even amidst all the busy noise and evil
That His Love for me will never cease
As the same Love within me for Him
Is His own Love of Himself in you and me
United and free

Louder

I did not come down as Jesus Christ
I came into the world as one of you, a sinner
I hate this world and I am not from here
I bleed and suffer in ways you won’t understand

I don’t want destruction and waste
But I am watching it unfold before my very eyes
Am I the only one seeing this happen?

It matters not if the commands to Nature to lay waste
Have come from my hand and lips
I have an obligation to write how I heard them
Are you listening?
How many more acts by her do you need to see to believe?
How many confirmed deaths will it take?

If you silence the Spirit of the Lord
He tends to get louder as He speaks
His voice will indeed thunder
Across the whole world, boom

I know in my heart
You don’t want to be in opposition to Him that Day
Almighty Father, how long?

What’s Your Fortune?

Those who have had the fortune
To partake in the Holy Eucharist
Who believe in the transubstantiation
Remember, you must be cleansed of your sin
Before you receive Him

If on your tongue
As a thief or a liar
As an adulterer or a murderer
As an idolator or lusting for so many things

With no repentance there’s no forgiveness
For without repentance you do not seek forgiveness
Thus proclaiming yourself above your Creator
But you are still given Mercy

There will come a day when His Mercy shall come to an end
That Day will be a terrible day for you indeed
I’m the worst of all men in the eyes of God
Thus I know what Mercy really is and what it means
And I know that the time is near, so brace yourself

The Sabbath Day for me
Is every day
For I am at peace
With Him always
As He rests in me
Amen

No Longer Me

Why should anyone listen to me?
I’m one of the worst
A wretch in God’s eyes..

Perhaps if you understood
Despite my sins, I have been raised
So I’ll drum up warnings and odes
And fan the sparks into flames
With the breath of the Spirit of the Lord

I am no longer me
I am perfectly empty
To let God reign
And I’m crazy for dying every day
So forgive me if I am crude
Indeed that is what it takes

Startled

I startled awake
Wide awake
In the early morning night
Darkness was there
So was the light
In my heart

My heart I felt beating
Then it stopped
I recall thinking
Finally

But then my Angel came
She always does
Forced it to start again
It beat so hard it hurt
Like a lance was stuck inside
I breathed and sighed
Cause I wanted her to

For You

Very difficult times lay ahead
The Holy Spirit of our Lord
If you have not yet noticed already
Is moving deeply and powerfully
Throughout all His faithful in love
Those who truly love, adore, and believe
I say to you
Believe

Now, We shall breathe His Fire
Set the world on Fire, oh yes
For the love that tastes blood
For the sake of the lost
By His Grace have no fear
For We do not shed blood
That is not our way
We bleed and suffer
Suffer ‘cause we can through Him
No matter what
Did He put up a fight
Before He sacrificed, Himself
And thus died for your sins?

Oh, dancing in Heaven, by the way
Is mostly beyond amazing even
Enticing me to ecstasy every time I think of it
But I resist, I resist so much an experience I have had once, so badly
But I can’t go just yet, there’s always hope of a certain love
I’m just wondering if it’ll be
Before or after that day I proclaimed

Cause right now, my legs are beckoning me to run
Run as fast as I fucking can
But I will stay as long as it takes ’cause I have to
For you

Simplest Way

How else can I say
Something to convey
In the simplest way
Guidance to obey

Listen and pray
Do not be afraid
Your will every day
God’s will be done today

Why do you disobey
Your creator this way?
You’re all so happy today
To be totally screwed in the end

Still Time

I’ve discerned the truth
I’m happy that the ignorance
The rejection
The disbelief
Of what is written by Christ
Inflicts on me for His sake
So many times this happens
I intentionally lost count
To carry the burden of that scorn
Not you
No matter what

I would finish this now
But there is still time left
The cries for justice ring clear
Just be ready, my dear

Recognition

We’ve been searching and peering deep
Into your soul by these human eyes
This heart asks yours in the deepest silence
Do you believe, do you see?

Some will startle in their seat and think they’re crazy
Most don’t hear at all.. So much noise in argument
Or their heart is so full of hate it’s stone cold
So few recognize, but are too ashamed to say

The dead cry out from their graves
Raise us, redeem us, give us justice!
But the living dead seek a sign with signs all around
I did stomp my foot and the earth it shook..

As it was already foretold
This is getting really old
Only one true sign for this generation
The truth you shall come to believe

Amen

Struck

What you wrote it struck me
It struck me hard somehow
That it really does sound like
I am saying I am holier than most

Then I realized

That is exactly what I am saying
But not with a haughty look
More like, really? I never deserved this..
All I did was surrender to Christ

It is kind of like a line
A lie that we were told we could not cross
We crossed the line, indeed
Never look back

What I am actually saying
Is that if we by grace are like Christ
If we don’t believe we are holy
Then we have not crossed the line

Anything

What does it mean to follow Christ?
It means joyfully carrying your cross to the end
Offering your own sacrifices along the way

How and why joyfully?
If I surrender myself entirely to Him
Something extraordinary happens

Swathed in peace wrapped in grace
I experience at my choosing, how I shall suffer
I suffer in truth, like I have been tortured
Burned by acid and torn into pieces even
So that you have the payment we make
For your sake, with joy in Christ’s name

It doesn’t end there for me
I witness the affirmations along the way
Through Nature, through Angels
Through the stars in the sky
Through the love of others

Inviting me into opportunities
To give God Glory
Not only to watch God do amazing things
But partake and experience them
We can do anything, God’s Grace
It’s what we choose to do that matters most
We could choose to lay everything to waste
And Nature would obey
But we don’t.. yet.
What do you say?

The Answer

Since I can’t do anything on my own
This weak flesh and mind of mine
I must give everything to God

Once you have tasted freedom
You will always thirst for it
A thirst always quenched by Christ

I’ve been to Hell and I’ve been to Heaven
Ask me about it sometime
I don’t recommend the former

I can tell you in truth, in that desolate place
There is no peace but always war for power
If you are weak you will perish

The strong will crush your bones under their feet
And when you are parched with thirst
In your mouth they shove the burning ash of your flesh

In Heaven however, weakness is adorned
Not because of weakness itself
But for the Glory of God by raising the weak

Raised to the fullness of His Strength
Thus they are His and have His Power
Over the earth, over death, all with pure love

Ever wonder what would happen
If someone who’s given themselves over to God
Entered Hell with all of God’s Glory and Power?

I would wager that the fire that comes
That destroys evil and purifies by love
Will be the answer you are looking for

Amen

Thrones

Read holy scripture, it’s all in there

I see many thrones
I see where I sit and I am humbled
I see what’s beyond the thrones
I see Christ sits on them all

Those of you with evil hearts, don’t you see?
If you open your mouth and in disgust protest
I rebuke you in Christ’s Holy Name
So that before you can dole out your hate
The eyes in your head will cease to see
And the tongue in your mouth will freeze
Only a repentant heart will be released
This is indeed mercy

Declination

Warning
Here is something you must understand about God
He is the one who commanded you to not sin
What is sin?
Sin is an offense against God
God cannot offend Himself
He also cannot sin
For if He Himself were to even commit those things
It’s not that He would cease to exist
It’s that he must lower himself to your level of disobedience
To reach you and save you from death itself
Because God, can do whatever the fuck He wants
IF this offends you, then you are far from God
Thus the work of my hands is indeed His
He is doing it all through me, cause I offer daily
I am thus also offered daily
Ecstatic moments of God’s Divine Love
But I decline! Not because I don’t want to
I decline because I will leave this place if I do

Warning! Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear

Dust

I have power over the very earth
The Earth that is shaking beneath
Stumbling your very own feet
It’s relatively simple really
God manifests himself
Through those who sacrificed
Their own lives for him..
I truly died and was raised back to life…

Alas, I am bone of his bone
Flesh of his flesh
United and inseparable
For all eternity and beyond..
My pleads go unheard and unheeded
I’m doing my best to stay God’s wrath
Believe me..

So rise up oh storms of the seas
Rear your head in anger
Unrelenting swaths of elements, Amen
A time for all to understand truth
Repent, and you will finally see
That with the worst of calamities
So many could have been spared
But you are shortsighted and naive
What matters to you so much in this world
Really is just dust
There is so much more than dust at stake here
