HOLY SPIRIT: SANCTIFY
HOLY SPIRIT RAIN DOWN:
Whisper JESUS
Holy is His Name
John Michael Talbot -
- My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord
And my spirit exalts in God my savior
For he has looked with mercy on my lowliness
And my name will be forever exalted.
For the mighty God has done great things for me
An his mercy will reach from age to age - And holy, holy, holy is His name.
- He has mercy in every generation
He has revealed His power and His glory
He has cast down the mighty in their arrogance
And has lifted up the meek and the lowly
He has come to help His servant Israel
He remembered His promise to our fathers - And holy, holy, holy is His name.
And holy, holy, holy is His name.
Come, worship the Lord
John Michael Talbot
- Come, worship the Lord
For we are His people
The flock that He shepherds
Hallelujah - Come, let us sing to the Lord
And shout with joy to the Rock Who saves us
Let us come with thanksgiving
And sing joyful songs to the Lord - The Lord is God, the Mighty God
The great King for all the gods
He holds in His hands the depths of the Earth
And the highest mountains as well
He made the sea, it belongs to Him
The dry land too, is formed by His hand - Come, let us bow down and worship
Bending the knee for the Lord our Maker
For we are His people
We are the flock that He shepherds
When its all been said and done

WHERE IT NOT FOR GRACE
By Larenelle Harris
- Time measured out my days
Life carried me along
In my soul I yearned to follow God
But knew Id never be so strong
I looked hard at this world
To learn how heaven could be gained
Just to end where I began
Where human effort is all in vain - Chorus
Were it not for grace
I can tell you where Id be
Wandering down some pointless road to nowhere
With my salvation up to me
I know how that would go
The battles I would face
Forever running but losing this race
Were it not for grace - So here is all my praise
Expressed with all my heart
Offered to the Friend who took my place
And ran a course I could not start
And when He saw in full
Just how much His would cost
He still went the final mile between me and heaven
So I would not be lost - Repeat Chorus
Forever running but losing this race
Were it not for grace
Oh, I Want To Know You More
By Steve Green
Well, actually, it's a very profound and important question.
DO YOU THINK GOD has His chastening and refining Hand in History
and all these events? ... we should carefully examine THE WHY?of the
rise of radical Islam and terrorism and many natural catastrophes and
disasters, ... including the economic disasters.
THE MORAL CENTER is at the very very *center* of all this.
GOD'S Purpose is the refinement [purification] of a remnant.
HE ALWAYS works with a remnant.
... and the tares go their way to destruction and perdition.
A Thought Poem
(help for the hollow men)
Did you ever notice how everyone tries to “prove” how “right” they are about many things they do not actually know with real certainty. ?
Truly, this is mostly mere foolishness and vanity.
we know that we are mortal and we die.
we know we have this guilt and emptiness inside.
we are the hollow men. let’s admit it.
and only women and children, … and GOD
seems capable of filling
the deep, deep, and unavoidable void at the center
of all things and being.
We are the hollow men. searching for some meaning
and significance in a world gone mad
with self serving lust that utterly defiles all that it touches
such that all that should Be
is pitifully tarnished and twisted beyond recognition.
We are the hollow men. Who or What will change or transform this awful aching alienation?
We who secretly fear utter aloneness more than death.
What can be done for us?
TO WHOM shall we go?
Suddenly, a thought, - a hope beckons at a near yet transcendent distance:
A Thought, - A Voice:
“your Home, your Shalom was lost long ago
when you decided that your will would be your own god.” – “that you would have a dream, - an existence outside of and apart from Me,”
said The EternaL One.
“Return to Me
And I Will fill your void
With Hope & Truth & Love & Reality:
For I AM
The Life,
The Way,
The Truth That Lives Forever.”
all else, - all else is but a vain and passing shadow of flickering lights … and chasing after the wind…
Again He spoke, “you do not know (nor truly understand)
what you think (or profess) you know
UNTIL you have come to a Knowledge of Me
Through surrender
To The only I AM.
“your” “i am” will not Be, but will cease
UNLESS
you find and rightly acknowledge Me.”
said The LORD YahOvah-GOD.
“man without GOD is a vain, - a tragic and very foolish thing.
And so often: even the very religious miss Me,”
said The LORD.
A question for you now, my friend:
What will you do? What will you say? When GOD, - The Measure of all, - The Moral Center and Sovereign of the Universe, - calls you to account?
will you strut your stuff? will you “mightily defend” yourself? and then tell Him “how worthy” you truly are.” ?
Truly,
will you even DARE to open your mouth before Him. ?
Pure, Radiant, unblemished Righteousness:
REALITY & TRUTH.
No pretense. No shadows. No excuses.
In THAT awesome Moment: will you have an Advocate to exonerate? … … or a prosecutor to convict and condemn? … which will it be ?
Which will it be?
Long ago, The Perfect Victim and Substitute said, (speaking to all) “no one comes to [is reconciled to] The Father
EXCEPT BY ME.” … no one.
Please understand the truth:
you don’t appeal to “your own” “innocence”
or “righteousness” or “your” “goodness.”
not at all.
you are a hollow man (with many excuses), …
And yet JESUS says, “Come unto Me.” …
… and then He leaves the choice to you.
What will you do? What is your answer?
your heart, … your very soul must give
the answer.
And He will perfectly & righteously
Judge accordingly.
