The Analysis

So we were bought at a price,
redeemed as in set free from distress and harm,
but we walk around imprisoned,
persuaded by deception and charm.
If the ransom was high
and the price has been paid,
tell me, why do we continue to drift?
As if it's ok?
See the answers we give
don't match with our lives.
Because if we're endorsing peace,
why are we condoning strife?
The place where there once was such consolation,
has become a land of much needed reformation.
It's not acceptable to conform,
this much I do know.
Yet in my despair,
I'm longing to grow.
My spirit has been crushed,
by the wayward man.
I'm feeling so disturbed,
trying hard to understand.
And if NOT ONE is righteous
why are we pretending to be?
Yet dying within
to be set free?
And if the price has been paid
for one and for ALL,
why aren't we humbly
responding to our call?

Jeremiah 8:22 Is there no balm in Gilead?
Is there no physician there?
Why then is there no healing
for the wound of my people?

Weapons of Warfare

Weapons of warfare start to arise, as I'm led into battle I can hear the distant cries, of a mother praying desperately on her knees, asking God who dwells in heaven to meet her children's needs.

He found her

He found her. Covered in all the debris of life. Covered in the choices she didn’t give a second thought to making, only to realize she was facing the consequences and feeling as if there would be no escape. He found her, sitting and staring blankly wishing, desiring to start over again. She was covered in her experience of extreme pain and disappointments. He found her, put down, let down, and torn down. How could she look up from where she was. Gravity weighing her down. He found her, though He never took His eyes off her and He gently whispered to her, “I’ve been here all along. How could I find something I’ve never lost sight of?” At that moment she found Him and her epiphany of how deeply lost she was caused her to become responsive to the invitation before her to a place where she could be free from dwelling. She found herself and looked on past all the things that had placed her in that state of desperation, though in that state she embraced her freedom in her intima...

Before...

Before your rapture comes, before the trumpet blows. Disensitize me Lord, each day that I may grow. I humbly come to you. with courage to confess, Lord lead me by your spirit, that I might die to flesh. I hunger for your will, your purpose and your plan. Because your grace sustains me, to firmly in you stand. I pray each night and day, and magnify your name. I thank you for your precious blood, that clears me from my shame. Your voice I long to hear, that I might not be dormant. Desiring to hear you say, "Well done my faithful servant." Isaiah 33:6 "And there shall be stability in your times, an abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge; the reverent fear and worship of the Lord is your treasure and his."
