Voices

This voice in me
Too silent has been,
When
Realities demand confrontation!
This weapon... My declarations
Of Heaven's realities
Descending...
Here on earth
As it is in Heaven!
This voice...
Will it fill the gap?
Will its fragrance
Invade spiritual atmospheres?...
Placing a demand
On promises declared
From the lips
Of our Great High Priest,
Our Ever-living Intercessor,
Standing in the gap
For every transgressor,
Gracious Shepherd,
Born to us
In Father's likeness
Exact.
Representing Abba,
Advocating our redemption
Through life laid down,
Voice lifted up,
Bringing many sons to glory!
Unashamed to call us His
Brothers and sisters!
This voice...
Who with cries loud,
Learned obedience
Through suffering.
Entrusted perfect life
To Death's sentence...
For us.
Our sin,
Mistrust.
Our lack...
Disgust.
Our denials,
So many.
Words misused,
Privilege abused
For selfish gain...
Yet He remains
Forever the same.
Great I Am.
Ever Present One.
In Your presence
We are undone.
Void of defenses...
Naked and bare
Before your gaze.
Your voice
We hear...
And tremble.
Holy fear
Consuming us once more.
Shaking our floor.
Bringing us low...
Humility's security,
Our safe place to be.
Yoked to you,
Gentle and Humble
Lover of Our Souls.
Burden-bearer...
Carrier of all our griefs,
Every sorrow.
Your voice-
Beloved to our ears!
Your words-
Our prayers!
A sword,
Double-edged,
Cutting through
To heart's intentions...
Motivations.
Piercing through
To hidden things
In need of reckoning
Your word-
Living and active
Discerner.
Reconciler
Of every wrong
And reviler.
Your word-
A blade
Cutting through,
Making new
The foul landscape
Of our soul...
Now whole.
Our voice-
His!
Declaring praise!
In darkness
We raise
Declarations loud!
Our hearts not proud,
As weaned child,
Low.
Humble we go...
Reaching for realities,
Seated
In Heaven's sphere,
Drawing near
In worship...
Here, we hear
Your heart,
Your sound resound
Shaking Heaven,
Shaking earth.
Consuming Fire
Breaking through
What we do
In Spirit and Truth...
Releasing the sound
Of many waters
On dry ground.
Every tribe and tongue
A sound
Rising up!
This voice- Eternal!
Through the ages
Singing still!
Father's will,
Turning hearts
Once again!
Healing sound!
On barren ground,
Flowing down,
Bringing hearts
Alive again!
Resurrection!
Father's turning
To each child,
Child to Father,
Reconciled!
This Voice-
Surely
It does render
Every enemy
Conquered
No more time for silence,
No!
If God is God-
Declare it so!
The Spirit and the Bride
Cry come!
Let Your perfect will be done!
Prepare our hearts!
Send your rain!
Let Your voice
Be heard again!
