Then You’re Not!

Ezekiel 33:7-8 (NIV) “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. When I say to the wicked, ‘You wicked person, you will surely die,’ and you do not speak out to dissuade them from their ways, that wicked person will die for their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.

Then You’re Not

In days of old
Oh say maybe 60, 70 years ago
Pastors did not seem to hesitate
To tell the truth
To try to remove sin
By its root
But today, well . . .

They say Jesus loves you
Which, again, is one of
God's eternal truths
But
What of other words
In His Holy Book
Perhaps, we should take a look

If you love me, you will obey
My commands
But they must know
Upon which guides
To take their stand
If you don't tell them their mistakes
Fate of not just them
but whole world is at stake
Then You're NOT being a good
Watchman on the wall
And

Their blood will be on your head!

Not my words
But to Ezekiel, a Holy prophet, said
Long ago by God Himself
So do not be afraid
To take a Holy stand
Be God's courageous, holy man
Rebuke a culture's sin
Boldly,
Loudly
So more and more souls
In this world may Christ win
And new generations may arise
To march into Heaven's gates
Through eternity's celestial skies!

Remember,
God will denounce their sins
On judgement day
Over each human soul
No one holds more sway!

Stripped


Stripped

Stripped
Meaning to
Be destroyed
Removed
As in to strip old paint
Now old undesirable varnish
Remove old tarnish

As I stand still
Look around
Unwillingly caught
In all the world's sounds
My spirit feels there is
Something amiss
Something
Imprisoned into
A darkened twist
It is our sense of reality

There is a loss of authority
Not of ours, oh no, no
In our own we boast all day
Over that we keep a tight grip
Over that most will sing
All day long
Through loose, smiling lips
It is of someone else's loss

Into the air madly have
We tossed
Christ's authority
Our Creator's Sovereignty
Over everyone, everything
From Him His power
Have we STRIPPED

Today even inside
Large and small churches
Pastors just say
Jesus loves you
Which, of course, is the truth
But downplay HIS KINGSHIP
Is it ignorance or fear
Is it now today
They're afraid to say
He is also our
Righteous Judge
Full Authority, Power
Only belongs to Him
All of life's rules, guidelines
Come from Him

In the middle of today's
Broken world with pain so rife
In its confusion,
satan's evil, full of strife
We need to return to the truth
Of our One true leader's power
And to bend the knee
And refuse to strip Christ
Of His rightful authority
HIS OVERWHELMING MAJESTY
AND UNENDING GLORY!

Now That’s Pretty!

I hope everyone has a God-blessed day! This video/poem is available also on my youtube channel Susan Guinn at: https://youtu.be/2G_JPJo-rCY

Now That’s Pretty!!

Sunrises are pretty
Flowers,
Oh, their colors
Can make you
Quite giddy!
Butterflies
Babies smiles
Laughter
Winter’s perfect seasons
But sadly
Just physical
Not spiritual
That comes only
From God
Is God

Warmth
Affection
Perfect Love
Shining, streaming
From above
Never leaving
Always present
Always good
Always faithful
Even when I'm not

King of the 2nd, 3rd,
4th chance
Showing in His
Celebratory Graveyard Dance
His Almighty Power
Over satan, death
Resurrecting people
With His every breath

NOW THAT IS
PRETTY!!

But, it is Personal


But it is Personal!

Up close
Eyeball to eyeball
Face to face
Chest to chest
Breath to breath
Until the second
Of your physical death
How close your God is

From the moment
Of our conception
Until at the foot
Of His throne
Our final destination
God wants and is
Close
So very , very close
Do not harden your
Heart
Like a rebellious
Lost world
Spiritually almost
Comatose

God wants to be
Intimate with you
Every beat of your
Heart is personal
To Him
Desiring for
All eternity
Your soul
To win
So let Him in

Let God the Father
Christ the Son
God the Holy Spirit
Be Personal with you
Your heart
Your very soul
Recreate
Refresh and
Renew!!

Unstoppable!!

Unstoppable

A pouring out
A flood through
Heaven's Gate
Nothing, no one
This Holy Power
Will ever abate
For if Almighty God
Decrees it
Then every human eye
Every soul will
See it

No more darkness
Will rule God's planet
Christ's victory dance
Upon it
Is for all eternity,
All of God's infinity
Totally, and in resounding
Joy
Completely
And
Gloriously
Unstoppable!!!

Nothing


Nothing

There is nothing
Nothing
Let me repeat
Nothing
As beautiful
As wonderful
As
Being with
Christ Jesus
And may I guess
As breath-takingly
Stupendous
As my first glance
Into His Face

Oh,
The joy
The peace
To fill my soul
From such
Might not
my small heart
Explode?
For now,
I suppose
I do not know

But let me
You reassure
No matter for now
What you may
Have to endure
In a world so lost
That for it
There is no other cure
But
Christ Himself
If you hang in there
Persevere
Until the end
You will win
HIS INFINITY
So rare, unique
So Gloriously Pure!!
