Do you think you stand on terra firma? Think again A forever life down here Never were you meant to win Never will that happen But do not let your soul Be completely saddened Trust in Christ, His Word Do not follow the ways Of a world that pursues satan, that very evil dragon
One day, in God's timing When all of earth's clocks At last have stopped Their chiming With a great rush, From God's hand, With only one last touch On the face of this planet Will then man take his last stand
It will dissolve Hearing His voice His irrevocable call Earth will disappear Even the universe's stars No longer to anyone Will be clear Every molecule, every atom Every fraction of dust In nothing man has made No longer can we trust
So prepare yourself Get yourself ready In Christ alone Can your soul remain steady You will finally stand Before the golden throne Of a Holy Trinity Face to face with God's infinity To view at last His wondrous Glory And be allowed to read the first Few words of Your new life's eternal story!!
I know that a lot of people do not like to hear about supernatural experiences, but they do exist. God can reveal Himself in any way He chooses. I have had a few experiences with such mostly in the form of a vision. They are always waking visions, and I do not know why He would give them to me as I am not a particularly important person down here. I was an orphan from birth so I was from the start one of the least of the least down here. I tell this only for the benefit of other people hoping it will help you somehow in your relationship with our Almighty Loving Creator Father.
Early one morning, I had just woken up, I was lying in bed looking out the window at the early morning sun and clouds in the sky. In my spirit I could start to see an angel standing on a platform of white clouds with steps leading up to it. I started to pay closer attention. The angel was muscular with tanned skin and shoulder length blondish hair. He was wearing only an almost knee length white, pleated skirt like cloth around his waist with golden sandals on. He held in his right hand a large, rounded spear taller than he was, maybe at least 7 feet tall. At first ,he was not looking at me then he slowly turned his head. He was frightening.
His eyes were a crystal clear blue, and the planes of his face were all moving with the colors of the rainbow constantly moving across his face but it was his expression that was so terrifying. He looked at me as if he could destroy me with less than one flick of one eyelash. His power seemed overwhelming. Then slowly, behind him a green mist started to form with an even stronger sense of power evolving behind him. It grew and grew until it was almost unbearable. I have never felt fear or terror like that in my life from the completely overwhelming sense of power in that greyish-green mist of clouds behind him. I feel like God was trying to give me a sense of His complete power over our earth and all of His universe. Again, it was totally terrifying. If He had not stopped the vision when He did, I’m not sure I could have enduring much longer.
Here on earth, especially in the USA, I feel we have lost a reverential fear of God. In our churches in America, it seems we have tried to turn God into a warm, fuzzy version of Santa Claus who will give us whatever we want whenever we want it. We have somehow lost respect for Him and just exactly how powerful He really is. We should never make God small, after all He holds the entire universe in His hands. We are so blessed He is as good and kind and loving and forgiving as He is. Praise You, Lord God, Praise You. I hope in telling this I can help you somehow in your faith walk and into a deeper relationship with our wonderful, gracious Creator, Lord, and Father!!
Are you really Willing to die? Let go of it all? For an illusion? Something I cannot See? Something I Cannot touch?
But you say it Is the truth This is indeed Most acute! Is this how Your mind You wish to soothe?
An unseen God A Holy Savior A spiritual level to life? To save us from what? I will admit There is much chaos Afoot Everywhere much cruelty Pain suffering To find all of that No one would really Be at all hard put!
Maybe you are right Perhaps I should be more Contrite Learn to let go So I too may know The Spirit's burning fire, Joy, the Privilege To pick up my cross And follow Him His paradise to win To lose myself And for the living Christ Become a martyr!!
My shell At times So weak So frail Earthly Made of only Dust In it May we never Ever put our Deepest trust
All of that Is temporary My spirit My real me Only it Heads into God’s Most precious eternity
I sigh, I long For such A place Filled with Only Your perfection Your glory's Holy Grace Longing to see Nothing But Your Bright Light Your Face!
Oh, God Almighty, Help me Make The right choice Among all of This earth's lost voice It's rising dust May I not turn May I not trust Wars, Murders Deceits Lies, Chaos In all of these You are all Anyone's immortal Soul Really ever needs!!
A vision was given An impression received Beautiful yet frightening So clearly seen Yet sometimes even I find it Hard to believe
That You would honor me With this vision Of Your holy one This angelic messenger Impressed was I Of that you can be sure
In his great power & in silence he stood On a cloud so white In his full magnificent glory And Your Most Holy Might
Beautiful, Over his skin’s surface dwelling Rainbow’s colors changing, moving Of Your spirit’s beauty was it telling
His eyes full of so fierce a light It gave my heartbeat a moment’s fright Compelling, yet I yearned to turn away Yet held was I & stayed
With one wink Destroyed could he have me Ferocious in his glory Showing only the story The completeness of Your Glory’s overwhelming power
Although sometimes I think Does it take a slightest toll Upon the stronghold of my soul These dreams, these visions Yet I beg please, please do not scold Because I have from the very start In telling of had only best intentions For your soul’s peace of heart
A new covenant A new mercy seat To make us more whole Ever more complete With arms outstretched This resurrected Christ Promises us new life
Long, long ago During a desert journey So arduous Our Creator/God Reached down With Holy Hands So glorious To lift us up Toward Himself
Creating a Golden Ark of His Covenant Between cherubim wings He placed a Mercy Seat Atop it It would be for His people Of His Love, GLORY, Presence A strong deposit
But with Today's Newest covenant God's Presence Comes alive A Living Resurrected Christ, His new Mercy Seat, To recreate in us A new heart, new mind, A completely transformed Resurrected life!!
