Your Throne Built of Dung.


Why do you bring this “Jesus” to me?  Why can’t you leave me alone?  I was doing just fine with these lies I hold tight.   And your words only tear at my bones.

I bring you great peace but the cost will be great.  You will stand before Him one day.  I bring you His word from the lips of a man, so that you won’t have to stand on your own. 

He’s promised a day when all men will bow low.  And no lie can stop it from coming.  He urges us all to turn away from those lies.  And embrace our failing here.

Yet you shed great tears because you find in me no solace.  I pick at your peace without mercy.  You wiggle and squirm on your throne built of dung.  But the truth still rings in your ears.

Look how you slept, how you fitfully slept.  The message I bear is not tame.  You’ll feel so much better if you will humble yourself.  And accept His most Glorious Name.

By His Grace.

He is. We are His.


Jesus, Holy Son of God Most High, speak for me in the defence of the faith You have given.  Justify Yourself and hide me in Your blood stained robe of Powerful Righteousness.  You alone are God, for Your Father has bestowed that title upon You.   By Your Holy Grace I pray.  Amen.

Rise Up! You Serve He Who Has No End!


Though I falter in faith.  Though my sight can no longer see Him.  Though I stumble as to never rise in this world.  I will praise the Name of Jesus!  It is to His Glory that His people rise up.  And the grace He provides will not return to Him void! 

You are His people!  Remember who He is,  The Great and Mighty God of all eternity!  You do not stand before Him as helpless people tossed to and frow by the winds of lies.  Though these lies penetrate to the heart those who deny His Name, we stand by the power of Holy blood poured out on the ground.  If the blood of Able still speaks, how much more will the blood of Jesus speak?  And if men find strength in a “good” man, how much more will we find strength in He who Lives forever?

Strike forth!  You are the people of the Most High God!

By His Grace.

STAND! FOR YOU HONOR THE KING OF GLORY!


This link will embolden us by the faith of those who struggle like all His people.  Stand!  He WILL be Glorified!

Living Faith.


“From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been forcefully advancing, and forceful men lay hold of it” [Matt. 11:12, NIV].

What is saving faith?  Men chase after all manner of religion.  And though they know better, they hold tight to what is offered by man.  It’s the teachers who speak of limits, not God.  Men will tell you that God no longer speaks to man.  And others riddicule healing by the power of God.  Some would even go so far as to say there is no power of God among men.

But the forceful will seek farther.  They reach a barrier and read of promises which speak of “more”.  They feel the restrictions of the flesh and think to themselves, “This is not all there is”.  These are the men who find the power of Jesus Christ;  that living faith which moves mountains in their way. 

“. . . when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”  (Luke 18: 8)  This passage speaks of “The Faith”.  The living faith based and founded on the promises of the Living God.  There is no weakness in the Living God.  And He desires that there be no weakness in His people. 

Strain against the lies.  Press against your doubt.  Fall into the hurricane which speaks against the Living God.  Grasp what is promised and live in the Living God.

By His Grace.

Trouble’s Boy


From whom do the words of warning come, when all appears so rosy?

From he who sits with lovely friends, in houses warm and cozy?

Such words don’t come from those who sleep.

Nor do they come from joy.

As lightning strikes and burns the grass,

warnings come from trouble’s boy.

By His Grace.
