Admonishment

Oh Israel I called you forth to listen there can only be one master to the house I redeemed you all to belong as brothers as your service to me you have espoused Why do you seek control over the others by example my purchase set you free my will I am able to make known when you are punished know it will come from me I will be the one who gives directions to the one who is my servant call my will I am able to make known it is to me that he will stand or fall You raise yourselves like lions in the forest tear into my servants like your prey shortly I will settle the accounts here pray your coins I will not take away By example I set myself as servant it was you who I washed and fed I set a table just like a house slave upon it was my own wine and bread You were purchased from the wicked were set as freemen in my tent everything you use is my possession you will account for how it has been spent If you are unable to submit to my direction know this you can be easily replaced I will not allow you to destroy my building I can from stone make flesh and you erased Every servant is dependent on his master and a master example I have set there is only one path to true glory the obeisance of love you do forget I will use anyone I choose to their service to me I'll not forget I will raise or lower those deserving if you refuse a decision you'll regret Accept my admonishments directions the gentle voice I have sent to you you have publicly shamed my reputation It is my example you must learn to do My father appointed me the master as a son in his own house I serve I have sent my messengers before me My arrival will dispense what you deserve when I get hauled out of bed for this I have to wonder to whom our Lord has to have listen , those to whom this is addressed you know the scriptures Amen , come Lord Jesus COPYRIGHT © 2012 C.
