Beloved

Stop lusting, start loving, give Him your trust, and obey Him always until you're nothing,
Stop envying, with beedy greedy eyes, that you can be satisfied with gold and silver, children's lies.
Bewildered lives, turn from where youre allegiances lie.
If you're not marked by the Lord, you're in line for the wrath by God's sight.
You're in line for death tonight.
Cry out for redemption if your heart is not right, may the Lord then turn the pen so you'll get marked with light.
The tav upon your forehead, makes what's dead come to life.


Quit walking craving glory, trying to write your own story.  Hoping to be a hero so the world will adore ye...How will you tell Christ, that you had him pay the price, so that you could get some praise for some grace for which you didn't sacrifice....or maybe you did, ceremoniously, sold out your Savior to be nailed to a tree...

Quit crucifying God, as if you are free of your sin, whitewashed tomb!  Look at the sins into which you keep diving in.  Striving in...the world, selling to lovers His pearls...adulerating yourself out to the prince of this world....

Repent, and turn back to the God of Heaven and Earth, Align yourself and pledge to the one True God we may serve.  Confess your wickedness and ask for forgiveness, may your life be changed by the regenerative working by the Holy Spirit.  You may not remain, only to prove that your confession was vain.


Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  Amen.   Lord, please bring about a wind of change here.  We ask for a passion for Your glory to drive us.  May the intense calling to holiness fill our hearts and minds.  Drive us with Your rod from all wickedness.  Instill in us a hatred for iniquity and a love for goodness and justice.  Awake us from the spell of comfort and the stupor of idleness.  Turn us from any an all idols.  Raise up a boldness in us to tear down the high places in our hearts and in the world around us.  May all be subjected to the sovereignty of Your Son, our Redeemer, Lord Jesus Christ.  O Papa, cleanse us.  Please purify us from all unrighteousness as we confess our sins before You.  Renew in each of us a steadfast spirit.  Help us break the bondages we've allowed to take hold and entangle us in sin.  May walk humbly in Your sight now and forever more by the power of Your spirit, for our flesh is weak and prone to desire its own glory for which we deserve death.  Blessed be Your name.  Bless the Lord O my soul.
