"For who is God, except the Lord?
And who is a rock, except our God?
It is God who arms me with strength,
And makes my way perfect."
Psalm 18:31-32
Israel, O Israel
You are so far from Me
So far from what I called your forefathers
I have brought so many of you back
to this land
Some of you knew not why
You only knew that you were drawn to the "homeland"
I have brought you here
to symbolize My people's hearts
returning to their one true love, their Creator,
their Lord, their Master, their "HOME"
I am drawing your heart back to My Heart
I have for so long wanted to gather you together
beneath My Wings of protection,
but you would not have it
You walked away and declared that your God
was not faithful
but, alas, I have brought you here
and I would speak to you today
as a Father to His children
"COME HOME!" not just to the "Homeland,"
but come into the "House" and see Me
waiting with outstretched arms!
We will talk. We will converse.
We will start anew - fresh
I call you . . .
Will you come, My children?
David, the King, once reigned here
His heart was after Me
Oh! The JOY he displayed
when he received My forgiveness
I have that JOY to give to you today,
for you see,
It is all very simple
I COME!
I came in the form of My Son
and offered you forgiveness and Life
in exchange for your sins, your failures
and the cursing of death
You rejected Me then, My Gift, My Son,
but today I ask you
to reconsider that My Son, Jesus the Christ,
is He, The Messiah
He will come again in Power and Authority,
but today I ask you to embrace Him
Do not reject Him again!
My Son, Jesus the Christ is He, the Messiah
EMBRACE HIM! EMBRACE HIM!
For only in Him is there eternal Life
with your God, Jehovah
I sent My Son so we would not be separated
I sent My Son to bridge the gap
I sent My Son to bring you LIFE
Indeed, will you cry out today,
"Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord"
It is time, My people, to stop your wailing,
to embrace the Son
and experience the JOY
of new life - new birth --- RESURRECTED LIFE!
Jesus the Christ stands amongst you today
Will you receive Him?
Will you welcome Him?
Will you lay your life down for Him?
As kings and queens have reigned
over My City - the Holy City,
I have watched and cried for My Kingdom Come!
But alas, it is approaching
as you hear the hoof beats, it is drawing nigh
Accept your King this day!
The babe born in Bethlehem
The man from Nazareth
The one beaten and nailed to the cross
The one who rose from the dead and ascended
on High to the Father
Accept Him this day and LIVE --- really LIVE!
For life is more than what you eat and drink,
for you are made of spirit and soul
Until the King comes into your heart and soul,
your spirit remains dormant and docile __ dead!
But, I have sent the Comforter, My Holy Spirit,
to reside in you to secure
the Promise of the coming King
Will you receive Him this day?
Will you ask Him into your heart?
Will you ask for the FIRE of My Holy Spirit
to fall upon you as was evidenced at Pentecost?
Will you fall prostrate before Yahweh
and allow Him to reign and rule in your life?
Will you bow down
to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords?
Read Psalm 24 and weep . . .
I will hear your cry
I will be your God, your Fortress, your High Tower
Come . . .
HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL
ISRAEL, O ISRAEL
