 Spilling of Blood
 (A Plea for the Innocent)
  
 Lord†, is it of mercy
 as esther pleaded for her people
 that I plead for all the innocent
 all those defenseless souls
 struggling for hope
 as they are submerged in hate
 as they are submerged in the greed of others
 –innocent lives sold for sex
 as those buying and selling
 worship and praise–
 proclaiming it is all right
 in God's† eyes!
  
 Lord†, I plead for them
 I beg for Your† hand to come
 to slam into these fools
 for stealing the innocence
 for robbing their dignity, their grace
  
 Lord†, it's all over the earth
 every where I turn–
 I see beauty and nature
 but lying beneath this mask
 is what's smothering Your† love
  
 condemned, I stand
 suffering with all the innocent
 pillaged, I withstand
 hate and angry words
 from those unhealed
 –those who cause strife
 those who spread bitterness
  
 Lord†, I feel Your† heart
 I feel Your† disappointment
 I feel Your† disapproval
 –please bring comfort
 to all those putting their souls
 in Your† hands
 for their bodies are sold
 to the highest bidder
 all declaring it is right
 in God's† name!
  
 Lord†, this isn't just one nation
 Lord†, this isn't just one people
 it's all over the earth
 the darkness has consumed them
 –God's† veils have reached the maximum
 they do not see
 as God's† prophets of the past
 deemed...to say it will be
 IT IS!
  
 Lord†, Your† time is coming
 those with malicious hearts
 those will never be allowed to see
 –this, as God's† servant, I understand
  
 Lord†, I ask for those in see
 I ask for those with good hearts
 –they stand the victims
 of the blind
 Lord†, I ask that You† continue
 to keep their hearts pure
 whatever comes to them–
 in their suffering
 at the hands of the blind
 give them the strength
 to remain in You†
 give them the strength–
 in all the wickedness around them–
 to understand Your† unconditional love
 give them the strength–
 in their given gift of free will
 to continue to choose You†, Lord Jesus†
 so that God's† kingdom
 will be their inheritance
  
 as I write this–
 I humbly pray for the broken–
 those in the mince of their choosing
 may they make the right choice
 may their veils be removed
 and they see Your† grace
 they see the energy of God†
 all around them
 –bring them their salvation
 so when it's time
 a proper room will be prepared for them
  
 help those weak in faith
 help those lost to the bad shepherds
 help them discover Your† truth
 help them see God's† wrath
 help them see why He† is so angry
  
 as I write this–
 as a servant of God†
 I know this world will see worse
 I know the war is escalating

 I humbly pray for the innocent
 I humbly pray for the good in heart
 I humbly pray for those fighting
 through the tests God† has them in
  
 I humbly pray that they come to understand
 that God† is always in charge
 –all good, all evil
 God† is the Alpha, the Omega
  
 I humbly pray that they come to understand
 what You†, Jesus the Christ†, meant by saying:
  
 'everyone is invited, but not everyone gets in'
  
 may the innocent take it into advisement:
 Your† hand is their only salvation
  
 this my loving, gracious Brother†
 this my humble Lord Jesus the Christ†
 I ask in God's† righteous glory
 for His† wrath be spared
 to leave the innocent with humble hearts
 and lighted souls
  
 this, God's† humble servant
 ask and beg
 for those who remain in You†
 for ever and ever
 amen 

(January 19, 2020)—Since the middle of last year, I have been led to Esther over and over again, and each time there’s something new pointed out to me. Today was no exemption. The two Scriptures that I include here point out this: Standing up for the innocent. Standing up to the adversary, the bully, the mean people of the world.
