Written by my husband

Pilgrim or pagan?
All of this world and the politics there with....
They belong to the unbelievers, to those lost in cultural myth.....
Those who believe they can make strait, what God has made crooked....
They have there reward in this life, while there resting place is still cooking.....
We have been called to come out and be separate from these ways....
To fight for the kingdom to come, to resist the worldly rays....
To set our affections on the kingdom
yet to be.....
Righteousness, Godliness and Holiness, being our every plea...
Storing up our treasures where moth do not corrupt.....
Where the thieves cannot break in, where the fire will not erupt......
These words are very plain, that Jesus spoke with powerful might...
" If this were my Kingdom, my servants would surely fight".......
We look for new heaven's and a new earth, where only righteousness dwell's....
Our desire is to drink of that Eternal water, from salvation's infinite well's.......
We honor those who are in rule, with supplications and prayer.....
That we might live peaceably with reverance and Godly fear......
The very lack of faith, that makes one fight for a sinking ship....
Will be the equation for eternity, as souls begin to slip......
Into the sea, of great sorrow and pain......
Where hell is multiplied, again, again and again........
We are admonished not to be entangled with the cares of this life... For her ways are very seducing, landing her blows with great precise....
If you dance to her music, the piper you must pay.....
Receiving the mark in your fore head, a servant to the ungodly way....
If you don't stand for the Lord, you'll fall for anything.......
The reward of sin and iniquity, packs a powerful eternal sting......
I therefore knowing the terror of the Lord, I pray thee hear my plea.....
Seek the Lord with all your heart, that He may grant you to see....
This life is nothing more, than a bubble on the water.....
Here for a moment, and gone tomorrow ........

Treason! Treason!
Evil Queen Athaliah cried
She thought she'd killed all her grandsons
But one had not died

Her son, the king, was dead
And with all his sons out of the way
She could be Judah's first queen
And in the palace she could stay

But Jehoida the priest and
Jehoshabeath, his wife
Saw what Athaliah was doing
They saved little Joash's life

They hid him and raised him
In the temple until
They crowned him king
And executed God's will

When Eve Was deceived
By the serpent so cruel
She would forever be
under her husband's rule (Gen 3:16)

Then Paul confirmed it
In his 2nd letter to Timothy
Over the man, she should
Not "usurp authority" (2 Tim 2:12)

Women rule over them
And cause the people to go astray
Was what Isaiah said
About the troubles of his days (Isaiah 3:12)

What was Athaliah's downfall
After all was lost?
She wanted ALL the power
Whatever the cost!

Get you into your tents again
God told the Israelites
They had heard the voice of the Lord
And were afraid they would die

The great fire will consume us
They told Moses with fear
So instead, He spoke with Moses
Who to God was standing near
(Deuteronomy 5)

O, that the fire would consume us!
And fill every moment, every year!
With a Kingdom that cannot be moved!
Serving God acceptably with reverence and Godly fear! (Hebrews 12:29)

For our God is a consuming fire.
Hebrews 12:30

Who is on the Lord's side?
Moses asked the Israelites
He had been on the mount
And returned to a strange sight

The Israelites, in a short time
Had maded a cow an then
Were dancing all around it
Are there any faithful men?

The sons of Levi stood up
When the question was asked
They picked up their swords
And began to perform the task

What was the cause of all of this?
Where did trouble begin?
The people wouldn't wait on God
A lack of patience caused their sin

Psalms 27:14
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

Psalms 123:2
Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

Let my people go!
They've been enslaved long enough!
They need time to serve the Lord!
Their lives have been so rough

Let my people go!
The cry went before the king
Moses and Aaron delivered it,
But Pharoah couldn't see

God hardened his heart
He made the work even harder
They grumbled against the men
Who they thought had caused the problem

Over and over again
Moses delivered Gods word
Deliverance required patience
And a supreme belief in God

Why didn't God make Pharoah
Let them go at the first request?
Why did they have to endure
All the difficult tests?

It's easy to serve the Lord
When your life is perfectly calm
But put some challenges in the mix
And see who you fall back on!

Look not behind thee
Escape for your life
The angels grabbed a hold of them
Lot, his daughters and his wife

They couldn't climb the mountains
That were up ahead
They begged for refuge in a city
The angels allowed them

But when the fire and brimstone fell
And the cities were brought to naught
Lot's wife had to turn around
Then she turned into a pillar of salt. (Genesis 19)

We must reach forward to apprehend
When we find ourselves in the dark
Not looking or turning back
Pressing towards the high mark
( Phillipians 3:13)

If the mountains seem to tall
Or the race seems hard to run
We must equip ourselves with patience
And keep our focus on the Son

The call went out through all the land
The tabernacle would be built
The Lord commanded this great work
Moses delivered Gods will

Come all whose heart is stirred up
And those with a willing spirit
Bring the Lord your offering
Don't wait another minute!

The offerings came From young and old
They really brought alot
Linens, silver, brass, and gold
Moses had to tell them to stop

Peter came "to stir you up
by putting you in remembrance; "
Before this tabernacle you put off
You must create for God an entrance

Is your spirit willing?
Do you desire to give your best
Do you offer up all you've got?
He better than all the rest!
