To Be Clean (God)
what is all this mess
killing here, killing there
blaming this, blaming that
no one questioning
the rat-tat-tat
this void crossing the earth
so many‒
taking their ride
in that hearse
without turning over one verse
‒what could be worse
come now‒
all you in the knows
video blast makers
'sew your hair this way
for your way is wrong'
'plaster your face like this
‒you're singing the wrong song'
watch what you do
they'll make a video
‒of you, too
turn you into a fool
‒all to get followers
who view
a bit of fame
before they're thrown
in the flame
all this here dirt
on this here earth
hoarders of money
hoarders of stuff
hoarders of earth
My† Earth, says the Lord Almighty†
what is it worth
to keep hording
or to give it away
before your time is due
‒that ride in your expensive hearse
I† am this void
crossing the earth!
My† hand is the wrath
you don't fear
all will see
the splendor will rise
it is I†, the one and only true
living God†
know what is coming
the time has drawn the line
the lies are plenty
you must know
what is in your own heart
trust in My† words
the time is drawing near
the chariots roar
stumping the earth
their nostrils twinge
their breath pants
as they await
don't dispel these words My† servant
give them all to them
those whose hunger grows
the desert is just the beginning
like the plague
it will spread over the nations
the sun will cease to shine
the moon will lose its glow
no one will want to sing
laughter will lose its twinge
mothers will mourn
fathers will blame
wake up!
look! it is I† passing by
My† anger shakes the earth
for you didn't listen
for you didn't hear
the coming of My† footsteps
until it was too late
then you'll cry out to Me†
then you'll turn to Me†
you'll beg for My† Holy One†
only then will My† anger subside
only then will the sun shine
and the moon's glow brightens
this is He†, I† Am
not just the Spirit
but ALL!
the Alpha, the Omega
the Lord Almighty†
it is I†
(November 22, 2021)—He came in the middle of me writing this piece. I recognized Him. He is stern and sometimes scary. After I finished writing, ‘Open the book shallow’ came. I did and this was amazing, sad, overwhelming and had me nervous all day. There are no accidents. These Scriptures are reminders to us. A direct message in the poem and in the Scriptures.
The worshiping of other gods: Idols…things…stuff, people (celebrities and politicians and false shepherds), enslaving children, sacrificing children to save your own ass, prostituting those He loves…all the things He hates. As in the punishments He discuss here, love…the message Jesus brought, then God will take care of those who do evil in His eyes by sending in the punishers. Don’t worry. No one has any control over this. God moves. God’s will will be done. Two gates. You choose.
Other Gods Prohibited—And He said: ‘I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. You shall have no other gods before Me.’—Deuteronomy 5:5b-7
Idolatry Prohibited—‘You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate Me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commandments.’—Deuteronomy 5:8-10
Sacrificing to Gods—‘Whoever sacrifices to any god other than the Lord must be destroyed.’—Exodus 22:20
Referring to Gods—‘Be careful to do everything I have said to you. Do not invoke the names of other gods; do not let them be heard on your lips.’—Exodus 23:13
Making Molten Gods—‘Do not turn to idols or make gods of cast metal for yourselves. I am the Lord your God.’—Exodus 34:17; Leviticus 19:4
Making Other Images—‘Do not make idols or set up an image or a sacred stone for yourselves, and do not place a carved stone in your land to bow down before it. I am the Lord your God.‘—Leviticus 26:1
Wooden Pillars—Do not set up any wooden Asherah pole beside the altar you build to the Lord your God, and do not erect a sacred stone, for these the Lord your God hates.—Deuteronomy 16:21,22
Children to Molech—The Lord said to Moses, ‘Say to the Israelites: ‘Any Israelite or any alien living in Israel who gives any of his children to Molech must be put to death. The people of the community are to stone him. I will set My face against that man and I will cut him off from his people; for by giving his children to Molech, he has defiled My sanctuary and profaned My holy name. If the people of the community close their eyes when that man gives one of his children to Molech and they fail to put him to death, I will set My face against that man and his family and will cut off from their people both him and all who follow him in prostituting themselves to Molech.’—Leviticus 20:1-5; 18:21
Separation from Pagans—You are the children of the Lord your God. Do not cut yourselves or shave the front of your heads for the dead, for you are a people holy to the Lord your God. Out of all the peoples on the face of the earth, the Lord has chosen you to be His treasured possession.—Deuteronomy 14:1,2
Mourning Practices—Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard. Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on your selves. I am the Lord.’—Leviticus 19:27,28
Avoiding Enticement—The Lord your God will cut off before you the nations you are about to invade and dispossess. But when you have driven them out and settled in their land, and after they have been destroyed before you, be careful not to be snared by inquiring about their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations serve their gods? We will do the same.’ You must not worship the Lord your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the Lord hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods.—Deuteronomy 12:29-31
Solicitors of Idolatry—If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, ‘Let us go and worship other gods’ (gods that neither you nor your fathers have known, gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other), do not yield to him or listen to him. Show him no pity. Do not spare him or shield him. You must certainly put him to death. Your hand must be the first in putting him to death, and then the hands of all the people. Stone him to death, because he tried to turn you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. Then all Israel will hear and be afraid, and no one among you will do such an evil thing again.—Deuteronomy 13:6-11
Idolatrous Cities—If you hear it said about one of the towns the Lord your God is giving you to live in that wicked men have arisen among you and have led the people of their town astray, saying, ‘Let us go and worship other gods’ (gods you have not known), then you must inquire, probe and investigate it thoroughly. And if it is true and it has been proved that this detestable thing has been done among you, you must certainly put to the sword all who live in that town. Destroy it completely, both its people and its livestock. Gather all the plunder of the town into the middle of the public square and completely burn the town and all its plunder as a whole burnt offering to the Lord your God. It is to remain a ruin forever, never to be rebuilt. None of those condemned things shall be found in your hands, so that the Lord will turn from His fierce anger; He will show you mercy, have compassion on you, and increase your numbers, as He promised on oath to your forefathers, because you obey the Lord your God, keeping all His commands that I am giving you today what is right in His eyes.—Deuteronomy 13:12-18
Notes: The photographs, chosen by David, is from October 8, 2019: Oil Spill Warning. He said the choosing is extraordinary. I see the orb and the duck. There is a meaning behind the duck, which is private until it happens.
