"If My People"



"If my people, which are called by my name, shall
humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and
turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven,
and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
(2 Chronicles 7:14)


A Holy God stands at the door, calling for a holy people
to fall on their knees in prayer
For the sins of the Nations are rising as a stench in the
nostrils, of the One saying, "Beware!"
Senseless killings, hatred, and protests are rampant; we
need the terror and horrors to cease
Come, Lord Jesus, and speak over this land with a
Word from above to all souls for peace
People taking eternal life and death in their own hands
moves the Creator to sudden action
Fall, O Christian servants of the Most High God; fall
to the knees against this infraction
There is One God and LORD over all; He, alone, is to
be worshipped and adored
Truth declares to the Nations and to the world; there is
 One faith, One baptism, and One LORD
Forgive our sins, O Lord, and cleanse our land; hear
our cries of sorrowful repentance
We seek Your face, Lord Jesus, and we turn from our
wicked ways; please pardon our sentence
Heal us, we pray, and cover the earth with Your power,
Your Spirit, and moves of glory
For Revival is nigh and moving from Nation to Nation,
like a steady running lorry
Pour out Your Spirit in strength upon all flesh, we pray;
 we feel the time and the season
Maranatha, Lord Jesus, Your people heed Your call;
 the blatant sin is the reason
We will, O Lord; we humble ourselves and pray; it's
 the calling of those under the steeple
You will see the obeisance, the humility and contrition,
to answer Your plea of "If My People."

"The Lamb Watches!"







The time is drawing near for the lamb to become a Lion; He
 scans earth's skies for the time and season
Grace has run its course and the Ark is filling up; the Bride's
 garments coming to completion is the reason
The Lamb slain from the foundation of the world is about to
 roar, and the world, in its slumber, knows not
Mankind has dismissed eternity's call, falling for times of
 pleasure, and forgetting that Hell is hot
Is now the time to talk about the Lion's roar?  The blood of
 Jesus postponed His roar for a period of Grace
But, He was always the Lion of Judah, the Holy One of Israel;
His roar is soon to rise, as He watches the race
It's a race of the nations, surrounding His beloved Israel, and
 His fury is mounting to a roar, as prophecy unfolds
Nothing surprises Him, for it was "finished" long ago; the plot
 is now fast materializing, the Word to behold 
He knew in the Garden, as He knows now, while watching in
 Lamb's Grace, that He must become another
He was God in the flesh, becoming man to return to God; now the
  Lamb becomes the Lion, as brother fights brother
Humans don't like the roar; they prefer the lamb, but they know
 not that their own Sins bring about His fury
He created the world and He has the right to judge the world; He
 IS the omnipotent Judge, and the final jury
What does the Lamb see, as He scans the Eastern skies?  He sees
 His feet of brass standing on the Mt. of Olives
It was the place where it all began as the slain Lamb, and He longs
 to return as a Lion; it's wisdom's knowledge
He feels the transformation forming, as earth races to the banks
  of Armageddon; the gentle touch will become a claw
Sin must be defeated and satan's day is almost over; it will be a
 complete win for God, and not an unfinished draw
The Lamb saved the world, and those who respond and repent have
 no more effects from sin's stains and blotches
For the Lion stands ready to emerge; His Grace is about to reach
 the limit; His roar rising as "The Lamb Watches."

"Turn Around"




"But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that
he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do
that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he
 shall not die. All his transgressions that he hath
committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him:
in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live."
 (Ezekiel 18:21-22)




We were all born in sin and shapen in iniquity (Psalm 51:5), and every soul needs a Savior, needs to repent, needs to be redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; every soul must "Turn Around."


To "turn around" simply means to turn from sin and walk in a new, clean, and different direction.  No person in earth is exempt from repentance, that is, if he/she wants to be saved, forgiven, and resurrected to new life in the Lord Jesus Christ.  It starts with turning around and leaving the past behind; sometimes that means relationships, until we become strong enough to go back and witness to them.  When we have been forgiven, and we feel free and delivered; the first thing we want to do is tell our old friends about it, because there is nothing in the world like it!  The joy of coming up out of baptismal waters in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ is so wonderful!  The guilt is gone; the shame is gone; the sin is gone; the heavy burden of iniquity is gone  ...  you feel free as a bird; the sky is clearer; the trees are greener; the air is fresher; the world is brighter  ...  Those things didn't change, but we did!


"If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray,
  and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven,
and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
(2 Chronicles 7:14)


This is not just a personal thing; it's a National, a world, a global thing.  The world must repent and fall on its knees before the One who created all things, and is coming back to judge all things.  The earth must awake and realize Bible scripture is matching News headlines; prophesies in the Word of God are shockingly accurate and are coming to pass before our very eyes.  What the Bible says will happen, WILL happen, and every kindred, Nation, and tongue must prepare for the Rapture, or the catching away of the Church, the Bride of Christ, and the coming of the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings, Jesus Christ.  His Spirit upon all flesh is happening; 580 million people worldwide, and it's growing moment by moment,  have received the Holy Ghost and spoken with tongues as the Spirit of God gives the utterance.  Why is this happening?  The Lord is coming!





Repentance is not a "Now I lay me down to sleep prayer," respectfully.  It must be deep, sincere, and even tearful, sorrow over doing evil; it must be from an honest heart and a determined desire to "turn around" and live, walk, think, and operate our lives in a manner pleasing to the Lord and His Word.  We must know, then, that when Jesus Christ forgives us, and He does when we pray this kind of prayer, that our sins are remembered no more by the Lord; those sins are cast as far as from the east to the west; it's as though they never happened.  That's why we feel so clean, pure, and innocent after repentance; it's so beautiful.




He that the Son sets FREE is FREE indeed!  That's the song of the delivered, and the song heaven longs to hear.  And, they hear it a lot, or they should, because repentance is a daily thing; it should be a continual habit for all of us.  We are not "once saved always saved."  The Apostle Paul said that he feared to keep his body under subjection, lest that after having preached to others that he would become a castaway.  As long as we have flesh in earth, we must live a repentant life.  And, it's a holy life, because SIN is heavy, burdensome, weighty, taunting, and it robs our peace, our joy, our serenity.  A HOLY God will never abide with a SIN; He comes to us initially, because He loves us with an everlasting love, but He expects us to "turn around" and walk holy, live holy, talk holy, be holy, think holy, and be the image of Him, which is HOLY.


Thank you, Lord, for forgiveness, for Your blood shed for us on the cross, for grace, and for Your love.  We serve You with gladness; fill us with Your Spirit, and we will be baptized in Your name.  Hear our cries, O Lord; heal us, and heal our land, we pray.  Direct our way, deliver us from all evil, lead us in the paths of righteousness for Your name's sake, guide us into all truth.  Please give us honest and pure hearts; we will be witnesses for You and take the gospel to everyone we meet.  Make us holy, O Lord, teach us Your ways; we will obey Your Word and seek Your face.  Amen.

We now know what makes us a precious bloom in Your Garden, Lord, a sweet aroma to Your nostrils, delicate and precious in Your sight  ...  it's those two little words  ...  "Turn Around."

"In Remembrance"




"And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said,
Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you:
this do in remembrance of me."
(I Corinthians 11:2)


You gave Yourself upon the cross to rid the world of Sin and  
 shame; Your blood and flesh paid the debt
Thank You, Lord Jesus, for the sacrifice You made to redeem
mankind that was forever doomed; we won't forget


We will remember, O Lord; we know that it should have been us
on that cross, but You took our place
You gave us hope, redemption, salvation, and a future; You settled 
the case with one sacrificial embrace


You did it for the world that You love without end, and You would
do it all over again, no matter the pain
It was the only answer for a fallen sinful creation, so our Creator
established forgiveness, for eternal life and reign


Now, the world can know Your love, Your Name, Your Blood, and
Your Word, and be born again in the Spirit
In death, there is victory, and Hell hath no sting for the
holy, filled, and sealed; they need never to fear it


You are God and there is no other; we have proof of Your
love, and Your compassion is signed with Your blood
It was sealed when You said, "It is Finished" and earth reacted
with quakes, thunders, and storms like a flood


 So, we do remember, precious Lord, with a cup and a wafer, 
 consuming the symbol of Your blood and body
It ever reminds us and judges us, as we repent of our sins, our 
 omissions, and all in us that is vile and ungodly


From children to soldiers, from Nation to Nation; we recall with
thankfulness the reason for our freedom
We were released by Your blood and Your flesh, and
we're  forgiven to partake of Your kingdom


You're the lover of our souls, Lord Jesus, the healer of our hearts, 
 and the omnipotent source of all deliverance
For this, Lord, we are so thankful; forever in every way, we kneel 
 and repent, taking communion "In Remembrance."
