‘Drastic Measures Taken’ (God)

Drastic Measures Taken (God)

heed these words
from My† mouth
the mouth of the one
who moves
who hardens hearts
who changes courses
of life

these words breathe
they awaken
at their appointed time

says the Lord Almighty God†

you ignore them
for they are truth
the truth you forgo
for logic of man
his logic is unreasonable
for he places blame
in the wrong places

the nines' is placed
the nines take their place
to move with the ten
the number needed
for redemption's sake

rise 'o nines
take your place
be well in your place
for your job is coming due

a gratification in sorts
a waging up of tensions
as I† move My† hand
amongst you
but you refuse to see
it move

three years now
I† have placed My† words
before you
waiting for assurance
to come
from man

defiance in her engraved
hand
lies among you

it is 
as I† say it is

the clock tics in time
counted by man
'o peoples of all nations
are you counting the clock
are you going to change
time

be silent!

only I† can change time
it is set
then unset

the blanket of a star's light
will fall upon you
a blanket
so well placed
that time
in all its perfection
will stand still
stealing the breath
of man

but not the breath
of My† words
for they will come alive
one phrase at a time
in the time given

awaken 'o fiery starlight
bring its shimmer
to earth's ground
awaken its broken halo

in divineness
shine bright
as bright lives
so shall you

a cleansing is in order
you, bright shimmer
will cleanse
what is charged to you

for I†, the Lord Almighty†
has made the charge
for you to shimmer
bright
in the sun's rays
of earth

My† people will see
this shimmer
they will know
the Lord, the Almighty God†
has spoken
when you lived in denial
when you breathed
denial

as denial lives
so do I†
for I† created its very nature
says the Lord Almighty†

(November 6, 2022)—‘Drastic Measures Taken’ was given on November 3, a few hours after I heard ‘Hear in Song’, then after He led me to Psalm 78.

God’s Faithfulness to a Rebellious Nation—(A maskil of Asaph) O my people, hear my teaching; listen to the words of my mouth. I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from an old—what we have heard and known, what our fathers have told us. We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, His power, and the wonders He has done.

He decreed statues for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which He commanded our forefathers to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget His deeds but would keep His commands. They would not be like their forefathers—a stubborn and rebellious generation, whose hearts were not loyal to God, whose spirits were not faithful to Him.

*The men of Ephraim, though armed with bows, turned back on the day of battle; they did not keep God’s covenant and refused to live by His law. They forgot what He had done, the wonders He had shown them. He did miracles in the sight of their fathers in the land of Egypt, in the region of Zoan. He divided the sea and led them through; He made the water stand firm like a wall. He guided them with the cloud by day and with light from the fire all night. He split the rocks in the desert and gave them water as abundant as the seas; He brought streams out of a rocky crag and made water flow down like rivers.

But they continued to sin against Him, rebelling in the desert against the Most High. They willfully put God to the test by demanding the food they craved. They spoke against God, saying, ‘Can God spread a table in the desert? When He struck the rock, water gushed out, and streams flowed abundantly. But can He also give us food? Can He supply meat for His people?’ When the Lord heard them, He was very angry; His fire broke out against Jacob, and His wrath rose against Israel, for they did not believe in God or trust in His deliverance.

Yet He gave a command to the skies above and opened the doors of the Heavens; He rained down manna for the people to eat, He gave them the grain of Heaven. Men ate the bread of angels; He sent them all the food they could eat. He let loose the east wind from the Heavens and led forth the south wind by His power. He rained meat down on them like dust, flying birds like sand on the seashore. He made them come down inside their camp, all around their tents. They ate till they had more than enough, for He had given them what they craved.

But before they turned from the food they craved, even while it was still in their mouths, God’s anger rose against them; He put to death the sturdiest among them, cutting down the young men of Israel. In spite of all this, they kept on sinning; in spite of His wonders, they did not believe.

So He ended their days in futility and their years in terror. Whenever God slew them, they would seek Him; they eagerly turned to Him again. They remembered that God was their Rock, that God Most High was their Redeemer. But then they would flatter Him with their mouths, lying to Him with their tongues; their hearts were not loyal to Him, they were not faithful to His covenant. Yet He was merciful; He forgave their iniquities and did not destroy them.

Time after time He restrained His anger and did not stir up His full wrath. He remembered that they were but flesh, a passing breeze that does not return.

How often they rebelled against Him in the desert and grieved Him in the wasteland! Again and again they put God to the test; they vexed the Holy One of Israel. They did not remember His power—the day He redeemed them from the oppressor, the day He displayed His miraculous signs in Egypt, His wonders in the region of Zoan. He turned their rivers to blood; they could not drink from their streams. He sent swarms of flies that devoured them, and frogs that devastated them. He gave their crops to the grasshopper, their produce to the locust. He destroyed their vines with hail and their sycamore-figs with sleet. He gave over their cattle to the hail, their livestock to bolts of lightning. He unleashed against them His hot anger, His wrath, indignation and hostility—a band of destroying angels. He prepared a path for His anger; He did not spare them from death but gave them over to the plague.

He struck down all the firstborn of Egypt, the firstfruits of manhood in the tents of Ham. But He brought His people out like a flock; He led them like sheep through the desert. He guided them safely, so they were unafraid; but the sea engulfed their enemies. Thus He brought them to the border of His holy land, to the hill country His right hand had taken. He drove out nations before them and allotted their lands to them as an inheritance; He settled the tribes of Israel in their homes.

But they put God to the test and rebelled against the Most High; they did not keep His statues. Like their fathers they were disloyal and faithless, as unreliable as the faulty bow. They angered Him with their high places; they aroused His jealousy with their idols.

When God heard them, He was very angry; He rejected Israel completely. He abandoned the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent He had set up among men. He sent the ark of His might into captivity, His splendor into the hands of the enemy. He gave His people over to the sword; He was very angry with His inheritance. Fire consumed their young men, and their maidens had no wedding songs; their priests were put to the sword, and their widows could not weep.

Then the Lord awoke as from sleep, as a man wakes from the stupor of wine. He beat back His enemies; He put them to everlasting shame. Then He rejected the tents of Joseph, He did not choose the tribe of Ephraim; but He chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion, which He loved. He built His sanctuary like the heights, like the Earth that He established forever. He chose David His servant and took Him from the sheep pens; from tending the sheep He brought Him to be the shepherd of His people Jacob, of Israel His inheritance. And David shepherded them with integrity of heart; with skillful hands He led them.—Psalm 78
