There’s
an awesome power within both you and me,
One
that’s greatly needed in our world today,
But
that is often ignored or is used …scarcely.
Many
think this power has long been passé.
It
is the power to bring all of Heaven to a sudden halt!
Holy
angels’ there and on Earth quiet their great wings,
To
hear cries of faith that have reached into
Heaven’s blessing vault,
The
Throne Room of Heaven from which
God directs all things.
When
faith-filled prayers of a soul’s deepest need,
Are
dispatched heavenward in Jesus Christ’s Name,
God
says to such He will most certainly heed,
With
grace-filled answers …by angels’ fiery
flame. 1
Recall
the many times in Christ’s earthly ministry,
When
folk were suff’ring horrible devilish attacks.
As
He listened to hear The Father’s voice, mindfully, 2
Their
heavenward released faith stopped Him
...‘cold
in His tracks!’
‘Who touched Me??’, ‘Bring
him to Me.’,
‘Zacchaeus, from that tree come down!
Roll away the stone! Wash
[your eyes]
in the pool of Siloam.’
Such
are but a few, very clear incidences, well renown,
When
faith stopped Jesus in His tracks to disperse
…Heaven’s shalom.
Just
as from Earth radio satellites are ever poised,
Straining
to hear from across galaxies
the faintest of sounds,
All
of Heaven is perched to hear, and then be overjoyed,
At
prayers of sinners to be released from sinful hellhounds.
So
here’s my invitation plain and simple to you sent,
I
hope you will accept and put it to good use:
Test
drive this awesome power that in you is resident.
There
is no
price to pay, so there is no excuse.
The
price of this power that to all mankind is given,
Was
paid by the death of Christ ~a couple of
days ago. 3
In
death, Christ crushed works of satan,
and had His ‘heel bitten.’ 4
Raised
from death, Christ now lives this to achieve:
His Church to grow.
So
if you’ve yet to receive Jesus as Christ and Savior,
Go
ahead, test drive this awesome power
in you that’s latent.
If
your life you’ve already laid on God’s holy altar,
Grow
your faith to be GREAT, then
use your
power-filled covenant.

Bring Heaven to a HALT!

4 So the Lord God said to the serpent: ‘…And I will put enmity between you and the
woman, and between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head,
and you shall bruise His heel.’ (Genesis 3:14-15)
Spiritually
speaking, this part of the Eden curses targets satan, the leader of angels who
revolted in Heaven. In the death of Christ, this curse was fulfilled in that
Jesus ‘crushed the head’ or power and
works of satan, as evidenced by His resurrection from the dead; and satan
metaphorically ‘crushed Christ’s heel’ as
Jesus submitted to (tasted) a very
temporary, 3-day physical death. More importantly, Christ’s resurrection and
The Bible, in general, reveals our physical death is not permanent, but is
temporary. All humans who will have
ever lived will be resurrected for God to (a) judge our earthly works, and (b)
pronounce our eternal heavenly rewards or eternal hellish sentences, depending
on our personal decision about Jesus as Christ. Have you decided to repent of your sins, and accept Jesus as your
God-sent sin sacrifice? See:
