Many Will Come (2)

 

 Beware, when casting demons out

When mighty things you’ll do

Let not remain the slightest doubt

It’s through the Lord, not you!

 

Beware in Christ, the things you say

Recall who wears the sword

Consider well on judgement day

We’ll face that self same Lord

 

Beware who come in church to steal

Who’d rob God’s flock of salt

The Father’s wrath that’s all too real

Will find the thief at fault

 

The Holy Ghost will bring to fall

Each cheat playing the head

Who make believe they know it all

But to God’s Spirit dead

 

They’ll come as wheat; these wicked tares

God’s vessel without flaw

With fancy words reciting prayers

With clichés by the score

 

This scourge of all the human race

This venom playing wise

Their masks; will God tear from their face

And shatter each disguise

 

He’ll bind and throw them in the street

With all their lies and shame

Where birds of prey will pick their meat

Their souls, condemned to flame

 

Beware; who’ll speak for worldly gain

Beware of Heavens’ sword

Through many stripes, you’ll feel the pain

Thus says The living Lord…..

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
