‘Settling Notion’ (God)

… I will scatter to the winds those who are in distant places and will bring disaster on them from every side,’ declares the Lord. ‘Hazor will become a haunt of jackals, a desolate place forever. No one will live there; no man will dwell in it.’—Jeremiah 49:28-33

Settling Notion (God) 

a bid for life is at stake
a chance of redemption
I† bring love
I† bring division
I† give and I† take

who am I†
who can have such power
as to give life
and take life

who can have such power
to animate thoughts
provoke them
and settle them

who can roam then decide
who loses hope
and who gains hope

who can awaken you
whisper in your ear
charge your heart
with audacity
then take it away

answer Me†, 'o arrogance

I† have watched you
from afar
I† have wondered
about your choices

I† have watched you try
to master the wild beast
I† have wondered why
you think you can overpower them

how dull you are

sing praises 'o hope
for the Lord Almighty God†
watches
takes into account the charge
I† have given the one I† chose

the sun is bright
stinging rays
before a bitter cold

do you not think
I† know what I'm† doing
when it comes
to My† own creation

do you not hear
words from My† mouth

'o how weak are your ears

I† have sent My† demands
I† have had them written down
through the prophet of words
it is noted
how you don't hear

your building has continued
your greed has continued
your sins have continued
your wreckage of My† seed
has continued
your destruction of My† gift
has continued

you refuse to see what lies ahead
what I† say will be
according to the words written

the massiveness of foes
seek blood
they are straddling their horses
spurs on their shoes
whips in their hands
yokes tucked in their saddles
their chariots loaded
with armor

they are waiting for My† approval

should I† give it to them
do I† need your approval
'o arrogance of the nations

do you not know
how I† set nations aside
for the good and the bad

do you not know
who holds the sickles
in His† hands

the prophet has already told you
it is the charge
I† have given to her
she has won the heart
of My† Son†
thus she has won My† heart

but you rule her out
expect some great miracle
she gets My† attention
because she has proven worthy

why do you not prove yourself
worthy

a prophet walks among you
the words written by her pen
will prove truthful and holy
yet she blends with you
for I† made her blend

you will question
what you see in her
when you see her
you will know truth
when all these words
sent to the prophet of words
become

says the Lord Almighty God†

look around, 'o arrogance
a plague roams
and you do not fear
the hand that moves it

science is racing
to out do My† hand
they cannot
the 'you' is around the corner
waiting for its moment
it will have its moment
no matter how much deception
you try in your try

bring the sword 'o sweet one
slash the air
once, twice, thrice
four and five
hang your sweet fragrance
in the air
for arrogance decided
they can be more than I†

the Lord Almighty God†
the riddle maker
the creator
the alpha 'and' the omega
already accepted your surrender

the prophet of words
gave you My† words
it is
and it will be

I† am not restless
nor am I† restful
I† am
the dark and the light
the plague and the cure

will you talk about Me†
in your healing endeavor
as the prophet of words

will you speak the truth
'o arrogant nations
the lion, the bear, the eagle
the wasp

will you rejoice in My† name
as the prophet so easily does
will you fear Me†
as the prophet does

come 'o arrogant nations
speak!
I† charged you to bring the rain
you are a genius
let it rain!

your desert will return
to its deemed chore
but you will fight it

chariots will pound it
before freeze consumes it

take pleasure in the warmth
of the sun
feel the joys of the fieriness
of destruction
the eternity of satan's house
his rooms are many
and his lies are vast
you consume them
in your heavy thirst
as truth lies
in your starvation

bring forth the words
for they will dissipate
as the waters of earth

says the Lord Almighty God†

(July 22, 2022)— I wrote the following as a note after the piece was given: I was dreaming deep and then I woke up suddenly. My body was hot and I couldn’t remember the dream. I moved my room furniture around and I was a bit disorientated. When I tried to reach for my phone to see what time it was because I was awakened with the Lord talking to me, I reached and it felt as if I were at the end of my bed. He said, ‘Go up.’ So I did and I felt my phone. I had just then remembered that I had turned it off, hoping to sleep uninterrupted. He said, ‘Get up and go look at the clock.’ So I did. It was 3:03 a.m. He said, ‘It is I.’
