Timing

when there is something on our hearts
and we are waiting for things to come
 sometimes it can feel like a long time
but God's will be done
God's Timing is perfect
it is never too early or too late
the Lord brings all good things
and renew the strength of those that wait
God does things at the right time
at the right place
bringing joy to our hearts  and a smile to our face.  Amen

PROMISE FROM GOD:
Habakkuk 2:3 . . . These things I plan won’t happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed. 

   isaiah 40 verse  31	 But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint.

Ephisians 1 verse 9 - 11.    9 God has now revealed to us his mysterious plan regarding Christ, a plan to fulfill his own good pleasure. 10 And this is the plan: At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ—everything in heaven and on earth. 11 Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God,* for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.  Amen

Connect Fore

I have become numb to the idea of praise
Praying that the preys won't catch 
themselves in the aisles of pews 
handled by the strength of clout
Smuggled out by strange men

I've become jaded by the blues
Fade to purple so I can paint kitchens and 
cook surrounded by new hues

I have become scarred by our experience
There is no healing for the bruise
but I often think we can grow new limbs
and the broken will be of no use

I have become hopeful every now and 
then
so I pull ink out of pen to write like 
Habakkuk the vision plain upon tables
so they can run and ring wedding bells for 
the two

I have become suspicious of the 
suspended suspense of new days
Always dreaming of bumping into the new 
side of you
Becoming feeble for the opening of hearts 
You stay in far away parts and have 
nothing to do with today

I've become a pleading thing
Covered in blankets, prostrate on cold tiles
A petrified wood waiting to be drenched 
by something different

Something like you watching me in pews 
dressed in blue 
Covering scars with outstretched open 
palms
Marked by ink I've used in daydreaming of 
new days
So they covered me in blankets
The petrified good

Premium Member Revival From God

By Your revival’s best action
Along Your miracle-wonders beyond imagination
Molding me through Your trying, proving and polishing function…
Oh God, enable me to continue in Your ways of sanctification
While I lean on Your understanding in my everyday choice and decision!
 
With Your revival power of growth’s certainty
Allowing me to grab Your kingdom-investment opportunity
Teaching me to declare Your Gospel in Your authority…
Oh God, enable me to prevail prayerfully against any falsity 
While I launch into Your mission-depths of eternal rewards’ security!

As You revive* my soul midst Your jubilant presence
Moving me to thank You for Your benefit-load of valuable essence
Upholding me to shine in Your righteousness’ iridescence…
Oh God, enable me to take heed to Your warnings on pride’s incense 
While I listen to Your voice and wait with victorious obedience-license!

*Habakkuk 3:2 …O LORD, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.

Premium Member His Holiness Demands Silent Awe -Habakkuk 2: 20

The sovereign Lord is in His holy temple
reigning there over all the earth
the people of this world need be quiet
for this God brings about their birth

This God is the Lord of all eternity
full of glory, majesty and perfect love
all His subjects require to be in awe
in the presence of this Lord from above

What glory descends from His throne
showing Himself so magnificently pure
such purity that man can't describe
the minds blown completely to be sure

All people's living upon this world
should recognise His will for them
so be silent before His very presence
this He calls for among all men

This is God eternal has even been
His face no one has never seen
the holy scriptures tell us this
so be sure His love you never miss

(''But the Lord is in his holy temple;
   let all the earth keep silence before him.”)

Premium Member I Will Rejoice In the Lord No Matter What - Habakkuk 3: 17-19

In those days of the coronavirus
there's a need to stand firm
remember your creator at all times
He's in charge no matter the crisis

One wonders when the fig tree doesn't bud
even the vines are bearing no fruit
the olives and the fields give no food
it seems so hopeless, will nothing at root

I will rejoice in the Lord no matter what
for He's promised to keep me secure
I'll joy in HIs work for my salvation
receiving His righteousness makes me pure

My strength alone is in my Lord
He provides the power to stand true
so to walk high on many a hill
what a saviour Jesus is ever new

So keep my eyes on my Jesus
who keeps me strong in this hour
standing fast till the trials past
for when I'm weak He's my power 

(Habakkuk 3: 17-19 " Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls--  Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.  The Lord God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer's feet, And He will make me walk on my high hills." (NKJV).

As the sun was wandering the skies
It came upon the Crucifixion, and had to close its eyes
The day that God in Jesus Christ reconciled us to His side
The sun had to withhold its rays and hide
At noon the darkness did ascend
The words of Christ did amend:
(“Father forgive them their worst”, “I Thirst”
“Today in Paradise you will be with Me”
“My God My God why hast thou forsaken Me”
“Woman, behold thy son.”, “It is done”
“Father, into Thy hands My spirit I commend”)
The Sun of Righteousness shines without end
From A to Z, He rules all of history
Your eyes are too pure to look upon evil
But why do you allow it and ordain
The unjust and the just to be blessed by rain.
The prophet Habakkuk has asked
Why are we always to be tasked?
Roust Yourself, Lord awake
Take your hand from Your bosom and give the Earth a shake

Newfound Feet

The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights. For the director of music. On my stringed instruments.
Habakkuk 3:19 NIV

The Lord is my strength
For who has the authority
To separate man from beast.
Flesh seperated through spirit 
Out of the pits of the lions mouth
The Lord snatches one out
He lights the way with a guided path
These newfound feet in rhythm
From the new tunes of leading
Confusion unto the beast
That thought He had His prey.
What has become of this one
These feet that soars with the wind
We must stop Him before He 
Tells another of this escape.
In the Lord one shall find rest
All the pants of life become clear
Streams of living water within
No longer having to search alone
Protection from the beast
For it's left chasing it's tail in circles
Of the one that got away



As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God.
Psalms 42:1 NIV
