The Prosperity of Lies


They lied to me by saying, “We can be useful in our selves”.  They displayed to me what they consider useful.  But as I did those things, they told me I am useless.  The only thing they succeeded in doing was proving to me that men are fully liars.

What they proclaimed as the sum of life, I embraced with zeal.  Where they were liars, I was more.  They perceived me as one who would take the throne among them.  For this reason they cast me away.

Within their way of lying, they called me a liar.  The casting out became complete.

What reason was there to live;  what place might I attain?  Shall I be a useless man among them?  How can that be, I am alive.

They have blessed me with their lying ways.  By their casting out, I have received all there is to receive.  How can I hold anything against them?  By their nature, they have forced me to receive the King of Kings.

Holy Father, Righteous God, hold nothing against any man on my behalf.  But free them all from accusation concerning me.  No one has sinned against me.  I am no standard of truth.

Rather bless them in their ungodly way.  Let the prosperity of Lies be theirs. That they to make perceive, you alone are good.

Thank You, Holy Father, for your excellent wisdom, which you display freely among all men.  Let those who desire you ask.  Let those who love the lie remain.  May your will be done forever in Christ Jesus your Holy and Righteous Son.  Amen.

By His Grace
