REFLECTIONS OF ME

7/7/2020

Picture

The power of life and death
is expressed through the tongue.
It’s clearly the strongest weapon,
created by the Holy One.

In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.

God's thought became speech
and gave birth to meaning.
With a powerful Word
He created his masterpiece.

“Let there be light,”
and it came to be.
It separated the day
from the the night.

In the beginning,
when the the Spirit hovered over the waters,
He spoke a Word to separate Heaven from Earth.

From nothing and everything
at the same time,
God created meaning by drawing a line.

Through His mouth
He spoke out the words,
that gave birth 
to all that we know.

His heart and his mind
became intertwined,
with his Words 
his love came alive.

All that was good,
he did not change.
But when it came to man
he said,
"it was not good to be alone."

"I will make a helper who is just for him,"
and then he created a woman from man's rib.
"At last,"
this is what Adam exclaimed,
"She will be called woman
because she was taken from "man." 

This explains
why a man leaves his father
and is joined to his wife.
The two are united
and become one.
They stood their naked,
perfectly made.
and in their union,
there was no shame.

Instead of division
that implies God's lines,
God made man and woman
from the same kind.

God said, 
"Let us make human beings in our image."
"Let them be like us and have dominion."

God blessed them and said, 
"Be fruitful and multiply."
"Fill the earth and govern it."
"Reign over the fish in the sea,
and reign over the birds
and the animals on the ground."
"Eat every seed-bearing plant
throughout the earth,
and all the fruit trees for your food."
"Everything that has life,
I give to you."

Then he stamped it,
"Made just for you."

When God calls into being, 
He takes his time to inspect everything.
When he declares it is good,
he then moves on ahead -
this is how meticulous 
our God is.

He examines everything 
that his hand makes.
If it’s not done,
then he puts it back in the oven
to bake.

He is the potter
and we are the clay.
He examines our hearts
to know if we are real or fake.
If we aren't done,
then he turns up the heat.
He refines each heart
to endure the stake.
And when the heart is ready,
He inspects it again,
"Will this person's faith endure Satan's plan?"

He judges.
Does your heart
contain his love?
How do you respond
when you are shoved?
Do you possess jealousy?
Do you rely on him
to supply your every need?
What will you do
when humanity goes against you?
Will you attack them
until they bleed?
To who do you bend your knee?
When people look at you,
who do they see?
Are you consecrated and set apart for me?
Are you ready to fully worship me?
Do you love unconditionally?
Do you forgive faithfully?
Will you love your neighbor as you love me?

When your tongue
touches the back of your teeth,
what kind of vibrations proceed?
Does your mouth offer
praise and worship to me?
Where is your thanksgiving?
Do you love me with all of your being?
Do your heart trust and believe,
that I made you in the image of me?


Yes.
In my image, 
you were made.
A triple-braided cord
three strands - thread into one.

Father, Son, and Spirit 
this is who I am.
and with my breath,
and my hand, 
I created you
into a man.
A Spirit, Soul and Body
to reign over my land.
But when I saw
it was not good to be alone.
I made you a woman
from your bones.
Man and Woman
made like us,
Male and Female
would be the host.
They are the creation
we love the most.
They are the home
of My Holy Ghost.

But you decided,
you wanted to be more like me.
When Satan tempted you to eat from tree.
Instead of believing, 
you chose not to trust me. 
Good and evil
is what you wanted to know,
even though
I told you "NO!"
Man and woman
cut themselves off from me
when they decided to eat
from the forbidden tree.
Immediately,
their eyes were opened,
and they could see,
All the evil that 
separated them from me.
Shame became the main feeling,
when they saw the differences in them.
Exposed
unclothed
from my Majesty.
They hid 
afraid 
behind the trees.
And when
I came
I did not ask them,
"Why have you run from me?"
Instead,
I already knew
Satan tempted them
to eat from the tree.
But honestly,
it was not Satan
that had power over them. 
It was their own desire
that lived inside them
and this is what divided them.
The man replied, 
"It was the woman you gave to me,
who gave me the fruit
and told me to eat."
And with that blame,
the woman then said, 
"The serpent is the one who deceived me."
This is how humanity unfolds 
when not connected to me.
Rebellion and Idolatry -
all from the seed
of Satanic deceit. 
It exposes the hearts
inside of them,
and determines the temperature
that is needed.

This is how it ends -
for the ones who have a heart for the Lord.
He loves us so much
that he is willing to expose.
He digs up the dirt that covers us.
He exposes the heart that is filled with lust.
He divides the soul from the spirit
with his Sword.
No discipline is enjoyable while it happening -
it really hurts!
But afterward,
there is a peaceful harvest of right living,
for those who are trained in his way.
 
Bitterness and Un-forgiveness must bleed out,
and the love of Christ must be devout.
He calls in the wilderness
for you to repent. 
He encourages you to stop, 
and turn about.
He asks you to suffer,
and to patiently endure
until he ready take back this world.
His heart is such that none should perish.
He longs for the hearts of everyone.
Listen to his voice on the wind,
"I am calling my marriage back into union."
If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.
The old has passed away, and the new come.
All this is from me!
Christ, my son, has come to redeem.
​Reconciliation is MY ministry.
Man and woman and ME.
This is the branch
that extends from my tree.
This is how I created your marriage to be.
From this my form of Unity. 
And through your love,
you are to reproduce
more reflections of me.
This is what My eyes see,
when I look to the earth
and the image of me.

Genesis 1
2 Corinthians 5
Hebrews 4
