What To Do When You Have An Audience With a Pharaoh

What do you do when you have an audience with a man intoxicated by power and control? What do you say to a man who has no heart nor a soul? What do you tell the man who continues to oppress? How do you articulate when delivering your address? Do you have the courage to stand up and boldly speak out loud? Or maybe you need some supporters and a favorable crowd Do you cry out about the Brokenness and all the pain? Or do you just shuck and jive And act all lame? God hears our cries and God sees our plight God understands that we need His guiding light First, just remember it was God who sent you on this mission And you need God's approval and God's permission For to be bolstered by the power of the Heavenly Throne Is to know that God's stamp on your passport will surely set the tone To be sent is to be dispatched to be ordained in place As an invite is a gesture for someone who's desperate to embrace As God's truth has to be sent to address evil power And an invite is for weaklings to come at a requested hour As the only expectation for one who's been dispatched by the Lord Is to stand strong in the face of evil armed with the Spirit of the Sword Two, never forget whom you're there to represent To never forget the people nor the precedence Now don't get it twisted you need to understand That its not about you but about God's plans And don't think that the reason why you're at the table Its not to become a celebrity thus making you unable To accomplish the task for which you've chosen to do For its all about the message and not about you So don't come walking in acting like you're attending a gala or a ball Its a confrontation where you might have to flip over some tables and smash some stalls For its not required that you be nice As you didn't come by an invite Now transformed in the presence of God when He sent you on this mission Now fortified by the Holy Spirit in order to fulfill this commission Now to speak truth to power talking with the heart of God To call evil what it is and that's how you should start So when you have an audience with a pharaoh you need to comprehend That you're meeting with oppression personified towards all men
