To surrender

Joshua 6:15 NIV?
[15] On the seventh day, they got up at daybreak and marched around the city seven times in the same manner, except that on that day they circled the city seven times. 
?Joshua 6:20-21 NIV?
[20] When the trumpets sounded, the army shouted, and at the sound of the trumpet, when the men gave a loud shout, the wall collapsed; so everyone charged straight in, and they took the city. [21] They devoted the city to the Lord and destroyed with the sword every living thing in it—men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys.

Now, seeing the walls of captivity 
Building, around me from own works.
marching around six days a week stumbling.
In bondage of death and darkness.
Trying to figure a way out the depths of the pit.
Entangled in the deception of the world spirit.
In my distress I called unto the Lord.
The Lord heard my surrender,
On the seventh day when giving all to God.
The walls came tumbling down.
A Trumpet was heard of the Lord.
A presence of an overflowing Spirit.
This Spirit of the sword to circumcise the old man.
Uprooting ,everything that was going against God.
Placing a new foundation and cornerstone within.
That, the promised inheritance of the Holy Spirit might reign and dwell within to create one.
Unto ,the likeness of Christ to give all glory to God.
That, when One looks Jesus in the eyes.
There is a smile from him seeing what he died for.
Is reigning and dwelling within, a reflection of Unity.

?Hebrews 12:18-19, 22-24 NIV?
[18] You have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire; to darkness, gloom and storm; [19] to a trumpet blast or to such a voice speaking words that those who heard it begged that no further word be spoken to them, 
[22] But you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, [23] to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the Judge of all, to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, [24] to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.
