Can you imagine Sitting Looking At God In the flesh For any human Such a weighty test
Always on this world Will there be unrest With each other Heaven and hell Are not compatible This issue Well, It's not even debatable
So around a last supper's Table Sat an entire planet's Only Savior Getting ready freely His Life's Blood To shed As soon His fleshly shell Would temporarily be cold Unmoving Dead
So do not miss the purpose Of Christ’s death Heaven's greatest sacrifice It's purchase Meant only to serve us Bought us back From our rebellion In satan's hand We had put a weapon For our own destruction
Christ's blood stopped Evil's rampage And Heaven's gates Swung wide To God's mercy Opened forever At last for man Was there A strong, connecting tether To His perfection’s love And complete forgiveness!
What holds those words together On that page Bound forever Do they have something Unique Important to say?
Your Spirit's finger Put them there Crystal clear With the whole world You yourself wished to share
Of your love, justice Grace, mercy, forgiveness But Also your Commands Rules, Regulations For each woman, child Each man
You cannot have the one Without the other Hand in hand do they come Flowing side by side Living as true brothers
If you want God's full blessings Then fully His commands You must obey Treasure every letter Those words and Their life’s messages They have to convey!
Of life it could be said Mostly is it about Relationships So until I reach the end Of this, my earthly trip Probably for me That is the truth
Father, mother Sisters, brothers Friends, strangers You will meet or Just pass Along the way Schools, jobs, Sidewalks on Each, every day
But Of all relationships There is THE ONE THE MOST IMPORTANT Of this let me be Oh so adamant And unfortunately Of all others you have Within this lost world It can be The most discordant A broken world’s mind Will fight to destroy Your bonds most Divine
It is the one you have With Your Creator God Your Gracious, Holy Father And His Son, Jesus Christ! Of this, I can be No more exact or certain No more precise
Everything down here On this earth is temporary Of all our God's great truths None of them of this fact Would be the least contrary So take a few moments To think of your relationship With God's eternity And you too may be allowed To enter thru heaven's gates Into Christ's loving infinity!
I know in this world, especially in our very wealthy, money-oriented culture that is so in love with money, possessions, and pleasure, we have a tendency to deny or neglect the spiritual aspects of our lives. We are truly spirits only temporarily connected to our physical shell.
I have had several supernatural experiences, and what I guess I’m trying to lead up to is I have had three encounters with demons, very dark creatures.
The first happened many years ago when I was going through a very dark time in my life but trying to draw closer to Christ and God and the Holy Spirit. I woke up one night and a dark mass felt like it was laying on my chest. I was afraid and all I could think to do was say “In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, be gone.” It immediately was gone, left.
The second encounter was when I was on my first round of chemotherapy for my breast cancer. I was sleeping in an old recliner and suddenly woke up. I looked down and this dark person was laying on top of me. I think it was trying to look like me as a child. It looked up at me, smiled a perverted smile and asked, “Susie, what are you trying to do with this book.” I naturally was frightened but again said, “In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, be gone.” Within a heartbeat, it was gone. I was at the time working on a novel which I have finished about the divisions within our Christian churches or the denominations we have created.
The third experience came about while I was still suffering fatigue from all the cancer treatments. One night I was awake, and suddenly, a strong looking man was in the room with me. He had no color to him at all. He was black with shades of gray. I said, “In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, be gone.” He said to me, “No, it doesn’t work that way.” I immediately yelled for a second time, “Oh yes, it does. In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, be gone.” And he disappeared instantaneously.
In all three experiences, each creature reeked, literally smelled, of evil, violent destruction. There is nothing good about satan or demons. The only thing that got rid of them was to speak or call upon the name of Jesus Christ! Praise you Lord Jesus for the beauty of your face, your great and loving heart and also for your wonderful power and authority over everything in creation. Bless you Lord!! Thank you for your salvation from all of satan’s schemes against us.
Fat cats, Fat cats Sitting all in line Meowing, screeching Even do they whine Look at me They groom themselves Do we not look So supremely fine
Spoiled are they Pampered No wonder they do not care To stray Here in this place They remain Remarkably so safe
But outside dangerous winds They blow Sometimes you must Face the cold winds For true courage To begin to grow
So step outside your comfort’s walls Harken to a truer call Follow a softer voice But it must be Of your own choice Again, step out A dark world in need awaits You just may be surprised Even a fat cat may be allowed To help someone through Heaven's shining golden gates!!
