Wake Up

Waaaake Uuuuup! is what i heard for this generation time is on their hands but death is on their faces. And time is definately not waiting, on anyone. And so your American alarm tic- toc spoke to you It said wake up! and do what you are supposed to do It said "You need to get your hair done, wash your car, walk the dog, and you have not even broken through. It said the sheets are wrapped snuggly holding you while the enemy keeps speaking to you that hope is through. Wake up! it said. Yes, this kind of alarm sounds nice. But what about the alarm that rings to remind you to, Waaaaake Uuuup! For God has chosen you. It's a different sound. And we open our eyes only to remove the cole from them. Not knowing that God wants to remove the scales. Many believe that they have a lot of time but honestly, only time will tell. And we dare not miss the call. He that hath an ear, let em hear it. We keep hitting the snooze button, when there should be fear and trembling within our spirit. (Alarm) Arise and shine!...10 more minutes they say. (Alarm) Renew your mind! 9 more minutes they say. (Alarm) These are the signs of the time..5-more-minutes and this generation will miss its moment with God. Time! time! time, time..is slipping away but death has not gone astray. It is still painted upon their faces. It could be temporary for some, if many would decide to arise and become like death-erasers. No more lying in complacencys bed. It's time to arise and stretch out our legs People are asleep with the dream of God in their heads but no manifestations. Only relaxation. While the world is slowly fading with sick and unsaved patients. Wake Up! Is what i heard for this generation. And there are many worldly alarms. I said there are many "worldly" alarms And the world responds to them like.. "Oh my gosh, im going to be late for this and that" But God is trying to awaken us to his plans and purposes so that the world might know that this is that. No more visions in my mind of people pulling the covers over there eyes as if we cant see their needs. No more of people walking by, replying to me Leave me alone! for i am sleep. No more rolling back over on their crys for help, while they cry out "Free my soul! For i'm a sinner! No more of us turning our ringers off for just 5-more-minutes. Do you not know? That the bed bugs are still biting you while you're in it? So wake up! to the grace of God. We, must seek his face. For Time! time! time, time..is slipping away. Awaken.
