"I AM"



The omnipotent God of Creation is the mighty Lion of Judah,
the Lamb slain for the world's sins, and He reigns
He is Jesus Christ our Lord; He is all Wisdom; and He rules with consummate Glory, over our earthly domain
The universe responds to the whispers and the thunders of His
Holy voice, sent with ethereal authority of power
While the cast out demons bow under His reigning hand, and
our tormentor, the devil, ever fears and cowers
"In earth as it is in heaven" is God's constant raining order and 
battle cry to His beloved, His Church, His own
As we pray with warring force through the second heaven, while
we gather the Harvest seeds we've sown
"Come hither" He whispers with longing beckoning love, to His
 surrendered, and loyal marching army
He gives commands and assignments, for His united Bride and 
Church, moving in cadence and harmony
The earth quivers and trembles with the impatient pawing, of the
 four horses of the Apocalypse, edgy to ride
It's an hourglass countdown to the final judgment, and a call to all,
in the battle, on the Lord Jesus' side 
The heavenly Gates are shining and polished, and the Golden
Streets glitter like sparkling glass in waiting
For the Bride of Christ to burst in from flight, and sit down to
the honeymoon Marriage supper so elating
But, it's a fact; the Church sets the wedding date, and the sands
of prophetic ticking time are quickly falling
While the honest-hearted world is unaware of its destiny, of holy
salvation, bought redemption and calling
We salute You, Lord Jesus, our God and King; and we hasten to
 always please You, our Lion and our Lamb
Our loyalty and consecration is steadfast for the lover of our
souls, The Holy and The Great "I AM."

"Our Lamb"




"But in fact, Christ has been raised from
 the dead.  He is the first of a great harvest
of all who have died."
(I Corinthians 15:20)

God in the flesh was the prerequisite for a Holy Calvary,
a spotless Lamb for the lost
Jesus Christ willingly took the nails, the torture, the
humiliation, to pay the final cost
The cross accomplished its task, and the tomb is now
empty; Christ is Risen!
Angels rejoice, creation dances, and even nature sings,
in response to a new vision
He did it for mankind; His love drove Him to utter
destruction, and then to resurrection
It was the eternal sacrifice and required to shed His
blood, this purity in action
It Is Finished now, and creation has hope for tomorrow,
forgiveness is cloaked in salvation
A new day has dawned; Jesus Christ reigns in Glory; it's
worthy of a standing ovation
The Lamb has become a Lion; death, Hell, and the grave
have surrendered in defeat
To the Lord of Lords and King of Kings; He rules and
He is impossible to beat
We kiss His feet in Spirit now, for He has Risen to His
throne, in power and omnipotence
Not a soul in heaven or beneath, can compare to the
Holy One's significance
He's coming back, you know; it's a detail from The One
 who designed the program
And it will come to pass just as He said, you can count
on it, Jesus Christ IS our "Our Lamb."

"Passover And Blood Moon"



"There will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth dismay among nations,
 in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, men fainting from fear 
and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world; 
for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.…"
(Luke 21:25-26)


PASSOVER

It was the plan that started at Passover way back when the children of Israel wanted and needed freedom from bondage, deliverance from Egyptian rule, and they needed to worship their God.  Enter: The Passover lamb, a spotless lamb to be slain and its blood applied to the left, to the right, and above the doorposts  ...  the sign of the cross  ...  to keep the death angel, who was sent out to kill the firstborn of all living, but when the angel saw the blood, the angel passed over  ...  and the Israelites were spared.   



It was the type, shadow and script of "The Lamb" that rode into town on a borrowed colt, and one week later was nailed to a cross and died  ...  The Lamb slain from the foundation of the world  ... 

It's all about the The Lamb and it's all about the Blood.  Without the shedding of blood, there can be no forgiveness of sin. "And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness."  (Hebrews 9:22)  The blood of the slain lamb protected and delivered the Israelites for one night, but the Blood of the slain Lamb of God, the Lord Jesus Christ, protects and delivers ALL mankind forever!  Thank You, Lord Jesus!



Why did He do it?  Why did Jesus Christ willingly give His beaten flesh, His sinless blood, and His life on the cross?  The old testament's killing of animals and the blood on the altar only covered the people's sins for a time, and every time they sinned they had to bring an animal, a turtle dove, a bullock to be sacrificed to cover their sins once again.  When the Lord Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, died on the cross and shed His blood; it was for the sins of the whole world for all of eternity. 

"For the life of the flesh is in the blood:
and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls:
for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul."
(Leviticus 17:11)


The Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ, made the atonement, with His shed blood, once and for all  ...  "It Is Finished."  But, He didn't just die; He conquered death, Hell, and the grave; He rose again; He IS ALIVE! 



That's why we worship Him; that's why we lift Him up; that's why we kneel at His feet; that's why we shout praises to His name; that's why we dance before Him; that's why  ...  that's why!

The triumphant end is yet to come!  The Lord Jesus Christ will catch away His Bride in the air before that great and terrible tribulation period, when the earth will be judged  ....

THE BLOOD MOON  



The first blood moon will be on Passover, April 15, 2014, another one this year, and two following in 2015.  Why is this happening, and why on Passover? God is trying to get earth's attention; He is sending us a signal and big events are coming. We are at the end of the Church Age, and about to begin the most horrific time the earth has ever encountered  ...  The Tribulation period, when those "left behind" after the Rapture of the Church, will be judged.  Profound events often occur during God's holy days, and are connected with Israel.  

It is time to "look up;" it's time to get ready; it's time to be oiled, filled, and sealed, it's time to obey Acts 2:38; it's time to make our calling and election sure!  It's time!

"The Lamb"


it out from the sheep, or from the goats:  And they shall take of the blood, and
strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein
on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is
and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast;
and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD."
(Exodus 12:5, 7, 11 & 12)


"And the beast was allowed to wage war against God's holy people and to
conquer them. And he was given authority to rule over every tribe and
 people and language and nation. And all that dwell upon the earth shall
worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of
the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world."
(Revelation 13:7-8)






Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world!  Even as the blood of the passover lamb was slain and blood placed on the doorposts to protect the children of Israel, so is our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, and His blood was shed for all of mankind, and placed on the doorposts of our hearts.  Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins.  The old testament overflowed with the blood of animals used for the atonement of sin, but our Holy God, the Lord Jesus Christ, became flesh and dwelt among us.  He died and shed His blood on the cross, and "It Is Finished."  What is finished?  The shedding of blood for the remission of sins.  The Holy One of Israel, Jesus Christ, paid it all; never again will blood have to be shed to remit Sin.  Jesus Christ is our passover lamb, and He shed His blood for the souls of the whole world.


"And they sang a new song: "You are worthy to take the scroll and
 to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you
purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation."
(Revelation 5:9)


If not for the blood shed by Jesus Christ on the cross, we would still be rounding up animals as they did in the old testament.  The blood of Jesus Christ covers us, protects us, washes us, redeems us, and we have a place with Him in heaven, because of calvary, the ultimate sacrifice for the Sins of the world.  The Lord Jesus Christ is the lamb slain from the foundation of the world, and He is the Lion of Judah.  He is the Lamb of love and tenderness, cleansing us and covering us   ...  and He is a Lion, who will judge the world in time to come for those who did not receive His blood, who did not obey His Word, and who were not filled with His Spirit and baptized in His name.  It's a plan to SAVE mankind from themselves, from evil, and to grant us admission to sit with Him in high places, and study war no more  ...  It's a good plan, a plan laid out in the Word of God, the Holy Bible, and a plan living in hearts, minds and souls today  ...  a plan of Redemption.



This is why we take communion today; the wafer is is symbol of the lamb slain, the broken flesh of Jesus Christ, and the grape juice is a symbol of the lamb's blood, the blood of Jesus Christ shed for you and me.  He said, "Do this in remembrance of Me."  And, we do.  It's beautiful, isn't it?  The "facts" of salvation  ...  it's not just a story, not just a tale, not just a saga of biblical exploits  ...  NO, it is a "fact" that Jesus Christ became our Passover Lamb!  Thank You, Lord.  We will not forget  ... we will never forget  ...

"He's A Song"


"He brought me to the banqueting house, and his
banner over me was love... His left hand is under my head,
and his right hand doth embrace me."
(Song of Solomon 2:4,6)


What is a husband; we really want to know?  Is it to be joined
in love, molded together in One?
He's the father of our children, the leader of our family, but
is there joy in the midst, second to none?
O, Love is just a word, but is it alive in my beloved, with a
caress in the night, and strength in the day?
Is He more than a mate, a sating of need, or is he the lilt of
my soul; in life, I say, it's a parlay
To find the soul mate that moves, and stirs the wonders of a
lady's inner being, is a fete to achieve
It's the looking for an Adam in an Eden exploration, by a
rib-created wonder, His very own Eve
Come, my beloved, and show me the depth of your soul's
heartbeat, is the ever cry of feeling
Will he honor the request, and be the romantic that Eve's
so often want, and find appealing?
It's a matter more than embracing, an ecstasy beyond the
boundaries, this depth of heart and soul
Does it exist in my beloved; do his wonders climb the
mountain, and fly above the knoll?
Do his treasures in mind and spirit push the interest of my
thinking, as he serves my deepest desire?
Is he the mighty One who will be the velvet glove, yet set my
feet to dancing, and my pounding heart afire?
O, beloved of my soul, are you the one to whom I am joined,
my love, the one to whom I belong?
O yes, is my cry, he keeps me safe and warm; he's the psalm
within my panting heart; "He's A Song."
