"Fire Shut Up In Our Bones"






The Holy Bible, is my source of strength and the lifter of my head, so oft in fiery times.  It's the voice of my God, inked upon my soul, in words of wisdom written in their prime. O, David, you have colored my world with beauty, in words from your lonely pastures. They're plantings of joy in a searching soul, that reaches for the seeds of a Poet grafter.  And, your anointed verses calm the fears, with glorious images from the flaming pen of vision.  As you paint Almighty God in strokes of splendor, and the words of divine Holy precision.

I've hidden these treasures of "apples of gold in pictures 
of silver," within my hungry heart
And they stand guard for my soul and spirit, as a mighty
fortress and unyielding rampart

In dreams of night, the Word skips through the corridors
of my slumbered resting mind
And the whispers of My Lord bring light, to the orders 
that He so steadily assigns

It's life in the Spirit when the Word of God is known, and it's a power beyond measure, As might fills the soul with the Books of faith, the miracles, and Moses' divided Seas of azure.  Dear Lord, I trust You with my life; You've shown me the way, and I don't need a sign; For Your Word is my constant source of who You are, and what You want, glowing ever in my mind.  The time is nigh for rising higher to Your domain, as I yield to the constant Holy's of the Angels' refrain. This Holy Ghost that You've poured into my spirit is burning hotter and stronger with each passing day; it beckons me more to Your secret place, and gives me unctions from Your soul that I have to say.







But, in times like these, Your Word is a flame burning steady, in the recesses of a fighting spirit.  The enemy does not battle me; he battles You, O, Lord, and he has good reason to fear it.  For, You have never lost a war, Lord Jesus, and the line has been drawn, in the sands of time; To live in the Rapture generation, is the height of power from on high, as we endure the climb.  It's delving into Your Spirit with hunger to know; while You keep raising the bar for Your "dust" to grow. The times call for Holy consecration, tears, and prayer, such as we have never endured; but as we war toward to trumpet, we have Your Word, Your Blood, and Your Name, making us secure.


Your Word gives us impetus to love the lost, unify with one
another, and throw down our stones
We're Eagles with the Holy Ghost; we know You're coming, by the
Spirit, and the "Fire Shut Up In Our Bones."

"Triumphant Entry"









Jesus Christ began His Entry at Jericho, ascending to 
the beautiful Holy City, Jerusalem
It was quite a ride, 3,000 feet of climbing on a donkey,
borrowed on that day, for the use of him
It was a Holy and prophetic fulfillment, spoken of the
arrival of the One and only King of Kings
With their palms waving and lively Hosanna's praising; 
it was, indeed, a joyous time to sing




A passion was emerging from the crowd, the beginning of 
a Holy worship, and glorious convocation
It was a triumph for a lost world; the omnipotent God came 
to die, a heavenly, yet required, earthly oblation
He was the long promised Messiah, the Lord and Savior for 
His sinful created "dust," for all of creation
He was born of a virgin to live and to die, and then rise in a
miraculous, brilliant, splendorous manifestation
So, it was absolutely fitting to pave His path, with carpets
of garments laid, and greenery of royal fronds
For Jesus Christ embodies the power to break all chains,
 free the possessed, and loose all the bonds





He was God who gave life to that very tree, His nemesis, and
then it was His finished deed, His dying cross
But, He counted it worthy and fitting to be an instrument,
to cover the debt of Sin, the ultimate cost
The palm was the branch laid down to the One who reigns,
and who would forever set mankind free
 But, His hands are the palms of running blood, nailed in victory;
 it was an eternal ransom for you and me
As He rode upon that borrowed colt, His mind could see the cross,
the beating, the blood, the torture yet to be
The people didn't know the monumental day this was to be in all 
of history; they only knew it was a "Triumphant Entry."

"A Cross and a King!"




An unbroken colt, a road strewn with garments, and a
people shouting "Hosanna to the King"
It was Palm Sunday, the week before the cross, when
Jesus Christ was the cause for all to sing




The crowd roared with His entry into Jerusalem, and
the palms waved on that glorious day
It was the triumphant ride for the King of Kings, but His
thoughts were on the cross not far away


The Lord was humbled by the garments thrown, to carpet
His path and smooth His course
Preparing for the thorns they knew not of, with boisterous
worship, loudly with great force


The children parade today, in worship and adoration, so many
years later, waving their branches
We will never forget, Lord Jesus, the entry ride of the King,
the colt, the palms, and the dances


You came for an aim and purpose, to redeem the world from sin
and corruption, on a cross so very cruel
But, You gave of Your life so willingly, as a Man of peace,
with not even a quarrel or duel


It was the day of rejoicing for a Savior who would do
the impossible, die and then rise again
For this, we shout Hosanna! for our God, who came in
the flesh, and IS alive, and He's quite a Man


We celebrate the victory, Lord Jesus, and we still cast
our garments of praise before You
As we gather in Your sheaves, teaching them to wave,
as worshipful, saved and new


The next time You come, the world will be Your palm branch,
as a bride's garment we bring 
You will come riding on a white horse, as LORD of LORDS,
a new entry from "A Cross and a King!"

"Earth Awakens!"






"Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise 
from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light."
(Ephesians 5:14)






What in the world is all this "Awakening" talk about?  It's about a time of awareness, a season of glory, an alertness of "dust" to its Creator, an unprecedented move of our Holy Almighty God, a happening that astounds mere mortals, an invasion of Spirit into the normalcy of Church, an arrival of the presence of Jesus Christ in astonishing ways  ... it is not to be explained; it is beyond the atmosphere of earth; it is  ...  "in earth as it is in heaven"  ...

"Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and 
hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you 
at the revelation of Jesus Christ."
(1 Peter 1:13)


It happened at PromiseLand Church several years ago, after much fasting and prayer, then suddenly the presence of the Lord was so thick in the sanctuary that people saw angels, smelled roses, were slain in the Spirit of our Holy God, had visions and dreams, were thrown behind the pulpit unable to get up under the heavy move of the Spirit   ... and no one would leave!  People lingered, quietly waiting, so as not to hinder the powerful move of God in our midst. It was an "Awakening" to the Glory and power of Jesus Christ, our Lord. We're approaching the next Awakening; it will be greater and more powerful than the first, more Miracles than the first, more angelic visitations than the first, more of His presence than the first, more   ...

    "Watch therefore: for ye know not what
 hour your Lord doth come."
(Matthew 24:42)


Being awake is being alert to the moves of God in the earth, the outpouring of His Spirit upon all flesh, the Miracles, signs and wonders of the last hour, the exploits His Church will do, the drawing closer to the Lover of our souls, and climbing to the place in His Spirit where we experience all that He has for us.  There is so much more that He longs to do among us, that He wants to see operating in us, through His gifts, through fasting, through prayer, our own consecration, dedication, holiness, righteousness, separation from the world, and sitting at His feet, which will bring us into that Holy place  ...  and it will be an Awakening!





Watch, worship, seek, hunger, thirst, climb, reach  ...  they're words to bring the Awakening, especially that word HUNGER! Hungering for more of the Lord, more of His presence, more of His Spirit, more of His touch, more of His direction, more of HIM is our cry for this hour.  You say, "I love the Lord, but I just don't feel that." It's not a feeling; it's a made-up mind to get it!  Hungry people have no manners, no second thoughts, no reservations, no hesitant unsure pausing, no wishy-washy desires  ... NO, it's hot, feverish, panting Passion for the Holy One of Israel, the mighty One and only omnipotent God, the infinite Wisdom of the ages, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords  ...  it's unbridled, unwavering, unhindered, undaunted HUNGER!





It's a new dimension of worship, a higher place of prayer, a step into the ethereal realm of glory, but you have to want it; you have to desire it; you have to be totally focused on reaching it.  God is a gentleman; He will not thrust anything upon us that we don't want, so hungering for Him is OUR job, our sacrifice, our prayer, our mountain to climb   ...  it's ours, and He waits for His earth to Awaken!

"Show Me Your Glory!"



The LORD said to Moses, "I will also do this thing
 of which you have spoken;  for you have found favor in 
My sight and I have known you by name."  Then 
Moses  said, "I pray You, show me Your glory!"
(Exodus 33:17-18)


Who raises the dead with the Word of His mouth and a thought, 
a power not believed if not seen with the eyes?
Can a soul come alive from the grave, just by a spoken order, from
One whose dwelling place is beyond the skies?
Who reigns above the earth with Power, honor, and the beauty of
 holiness, in the portals of ethereal majesty?
Who draws the reaching soul up to crags in auras of the unknown,
 veiling our blinded eyes, lest we see?
Does He search for the hungry, the bowed and the wholly given, to
 set that one apart for higher domains?
Is it a private place reserved for the visionary, the dreamer, the
 one between the pew and the altar, with birth pains?
Will he find His Moses, His Daniel, His Esther, His Paul, in this
 hour of pleasure and unbridled flesh?
Does Almighty God need a revival of His own in an outpouring of
 His Spirit, falling on His "dust" afresh?
Can a God, who has planned the prophecy in omnipotent detail,
 depend on His creation to unite in fulfillment?
Or, will those chosen ones hide their gifts and heaven sent light
 under Laodicean bushels of concealment?
What will MOVE God's creation, so fearfully and wonderfully
 made in His image, and His likeness?
Will the time and the season stir mankind to leave satan behind,
 and board the waiting train of rightness?
How can a pacing God gather His sheep in this Noah's day of
 folly, disrespect of God's commandments, and Sin?
Can His Bride shake earth with her MOVE of miracles, signs and
 wonders, to cause all to look up and ask, "When?"
Are the wedding garments ready, hope chests filled, and the lamps
 oiled and filled, for that blinking departure?
Has the Church anticipated the flight, and prepared enough, like
 a standing, strong, warring, and ready archer?
When will our Beloved come, and whisk us away from this place
 not our home, to the throne of our King and Lord?
Can we hold our positions and battle to the end, with our armor
 intact, and our flashing gleaming swords?
Why doesn't the Lord's bride, in every nation, discard her pains, 
her weariness, and tell the world the story?
What is stopping her from rejoicing, with all of her might; God's
 pushing her to say, "Show Me Your Glory!"
