Inspired by Zechariah chapter 6 Look up again and see the four chariots Coming between two bronze mountains See them pulled by horses of variance Threatening four adverse dominions "These are the four spirits of heaven Who stand before the benevolent Lord Patrolling the earth for oppression Passing along what had been warned" Here is a message from the Lord: "THE CAPTIVES WILL DO AS THEY ARE TOLD SO GATHER THE GIFTS OF SILVER AND GOLD TAKE THEM TOGETHER AND FORM A MOLD MAKING A CROWN TO BE EXTOLLED "PLACE IT ON THE MAN CALLED THE BRANCH HE RAISED UP WHAT HAD BEEN DETACHED MAKING SURE THE KINSHIP IS INTACT CROWN HIM KING FOR REMINISCENCE"

Inspired by Zechariah chapter 5 Look up and see the flying banner See the Lord's curse and clamor See how HE judges crooked manners See the smashing of HIS hammer Look up and see the measuring tool See it filled with sins of fools See inside the fiendish ghoul See the creature Wickedness the Cruel Look up and see the flying agents See them gliding on the wind with patience See them pick up Wickedness the Ancient See them go to the land of assailants

Inspired by Zechariah chapter 4 Wake up! What do you see? A bowl of oil on top of a gold lampstand With seven lamps each with seven spouts So the oil can flow freely on command Burning the light that fills the house Next to the lampstand are two olive trees Constantly supplying the needed oil Representing mediation and royalty So our transgression can be assoiled "IT IS NOT BY STRENGTH NOR BY POWER BUT BY MY SPIRIT, SAYS THE LIVING GOD BEFORE YOU MIGHTY MOUNTAINS COWER AS THE CORNERSTONE WILL BE LODGED" Zerubbabel laid the foundation of the Temple The Lord's messenger says he will complete it At small beginnings do not tremble The conclusion, the Lord says, is guaranteed May God bless it! May God bless it! Amen 🙏

Inspired by Zechariah chapter 3 See the high priest standing before the Judge The Accuser claims he committed wrongdoings But the LORD's affection would not budge "I, THE LORD, REJECT YOUR ACCUSATIONS THIS PRIEST HAS MY APPRECIATION I REBUKE ALL YOUR FABRICATIONS FOR THE PRIEST BURNS WITH HOLY PASSION" Unfortunately the priest wore filthy clothes Yet his uncleanliness was removed And then he was given royal robes "PRIEST IF YOU CAREFULLY SERVE ME THEN I WILL GRANT YOU AUTHORITY BEHOLD THIS JEWEL  OF DIVINE BRILLIANCY AS I CLEANSE THE LAND OF ITS INIQUITY"

Inspired by Zechariah chapter 2 Come, measure how wide and how long The City of God's People that had been wronged It will be full of people one again God Himself will be it's watchmen His Presence will saturate the city It will be a place known for His Glory! The LORD says, "COME AWAY! MY PEOPLE WHO WERE EXILED ASTRAY FLEE FROM COUNTERFEITS TODAY MY WRATH AGAINST THEM IS UNDERWAY "I AM COMING TO LIVE AMONGST YOU OTHER PEOPLE WILL LEARN TO TRUST YOU THE LAND I'VE CHOSEN AS A HOLY NATION WILL BE KNOWN AS MY SPECIAL POSSESSION BE SILENT BEFORE THE LORD ALL HUMANITY FOR I AM COMING TO PROTECT MY SANCTITY"

Inspired by Zechariah, chapter 1 This is what the One True Living God says "RETURN TO ME AND I WILL RETURN TO YOU DON'T BE LIKE PRIOR GENERATIONS IGNORING EVIL PRACTICES ACCRUED "SELF-INDULGENCE AND CONDENSCENSION THUS IGNORING MY PROCLAMATION ASSURING THEIR OWN SELF-DESTRUCTION CAUSING ME TO BRING REDEMPTION" In a vision during the night There was a man sitting on a red horse Standing among some myrtle trees Behind him stood other riding forces The first red horse represented man The second red horse stood for atonement The brown horse represented the world The white horse stood for enthronement They were sent by God to patrol the earth Reporting back that it was at peace Then a cry went out for God's people For mercy and His wrath to be appeased God responded back in kindness "MY LOVE FOR MY PEOPLE IS VERY STRONG BUT ANGRY WITH OTHERS IN THEIR COMFORT THEIR SECURITY WILL NOT LAST FOR LONG” Then looking up there were four animal horns Representing the torme...

Inspired by Matthew chapter 23 Hear ye, hear ye Court is now in session The plaintiff speaks against the accused  Of hypocritical oppression "Beware of influencers Who like to guide and teach Telling you how to think and act But do not practice what they preach "Everything they do is for show To receive respect from others Sitting at the head of the table And to be given praise and honor "They think they're better than common folk And loved to be called their master But the least shall be made the greatest While braggards head for disaster "What sorrow awaits those who exalts themselves For one day you will be humbled And for those who have humbled themselves Your lives will be untroubled "Hypocrites! You who carefully clean the outside Yet the inside of the cup is filthy First wash the inside of the cup and dish Then the outside will be exemplary "Hypocrites! You who are like whitewashed tombs Beautiful on the outside and elegant But filled with dead ...

Inspired by Matthew 22:24-33; Mark 12:18-27; Luke 20:27-40 Marriage is for people living in this world  But after death and then resurrection  We will neither marry or be given in marriage  But we will live forever in exaltation  What does it mean to be raised from the dead? The physical being passes but the spirit lives on  Then our essence regenerates in glory  We were once flawed but reborn in perfection  Our lives can feel like we’re in a desert  A barren wilderness that makes us dry Went from royalty to guarding flock But this is for selfish pride to die We can search for things to satisfy us Money, career, or companionship  But we can end up disappointed  Like the key to happiness is encrypted Think of our time on earth as borrowed Worldly joy and love are just temporary  They maybe here today but gone tomorrow  God’s grace calls us out of our cemeteries  The joy of the Lord is our strength  Our lives aren’...

Inspired by Matthew 21:28-22:14; Mark 12:1-12; & Luke 20:9-19 What do you think about this? A man had two sons and a vineyard The sons were told to work unhindered They both responded as if he was heard With one saying yes but the other didn't bother Still the one who said no did as he was told While the promise the other made he couldn't uphold So which one obeyed as they were supposed? The one who did the work even if he opposed Now lets say the vineyard       was leased out to some tenants When harvest time came       the owner sent out his servants But the servants were assaulted without penance So the owner sent out one of his descendants But when the heir was arriving,       t he tenants plotted and schemed To steal the vineyard is what they had dreamed They thought killing the heir       would make them esteemed Only to receive retribution and be demeaned Then the other son was having a weddi...

Inspired by Matthew 21:1-27; Mark chapter 11; Luke 19:28-20:8; Psalm 118:26 Isaiah 62:11; Jeremiah 7:1-11;Zechariah 9:9 Declare from the City of Holiness The Lord and Savior who is righteous Comes riding in full of humbleness Arriving from conflict and is victorious Shout it at the top of your lungs Praise God! Blessed is He who comes Praise the Lord from the heavens Praise Him throughout the procession But approaching the city He began to weep Foreseeing the enemies that creep Upon the people lulled to sleep For their travesties that they will reap For they steal, murder, and commit adultery Lie and adore irreverent vulgarity Then come to the Temple for their own safety Only to go back to their perversity Do not show yourselves full of leaves Deceptively showing unsatiated relief  For the Lord will call out our misdeeds  And reveal any conceited schemes  So bear good fruit in and out of season And do not doubt for any reason  That His authority is without question...

Inspired by Luke 19:1-10 There was a tax collector in a town  He was rich but not renown His name meant pure and innocent  But people thought him belligerent  A short man who couldn't see over the crowd Climbed a sycamore tree then was called out Because when God calls out to us We can be reborn by Christ Jesus HE enters our home and becomes our guest As long as we answer His request To repay back all those we have cheated And from wrongdoing have we retreated For He came to save all those who were lost Whose immorality they want to have quashed Who have measured and counted up the cost And lay down their burdens at the foot of the cross

Cry out for justice day and night  God always delivers what is right  Because HE helps His people quickly  Those exhibiting faith sincerely Do not boast of your own greatness  God finds it contemptuous  Those who can humble themselves  Excellence within them will dwell To be childlike should we inspire  So the Kingdom of God we can acquire  So let the children continue approaching  Blessings upon them is God bestowing  We need to follow His commandments  So we can have eternal enhancements Heaven for the rich is an obstacle  But with God nothing’s impossible  Let us cry out to God for mercy  For His Grace makes us all worthy  So receive our sight for faith has healed us All because of Christ Lord Jesus 

Inspired by Genesis 6:5-8; 18:16-19:26; Luke 17:20-37 God observed the extent of wickedness People complacent in their fickleness Hearts and minds full of maliciousness Making God be in regretfulness "I WILL WIPE HUMANITY       OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW       THEIR HEAVENLY WORTH PEOPLE WHO REVEL IN THEIR FALSE MIRTH ANNIHILATING THIS CREATION THAT I BIRTHED" Yet there was one whom the Lord found favor One who obeyed Him unto hard labor One who revered the Sovereign Creator A descendent of our Lord and Savior But generations later God was offended Immorality was overextended Their depraved ways were defended Then God's wrath upon them descended When Jesus returns it’ll be like Noah’s time People celebrating with food and wine  Unaware of their righteous decline  Then judgment comes from the Divine  People will go out on their daily business  Justifying their psychological illness  Thinking it’s okay t...

  Adapted from James 3:13 - 4:10 If you are wise then please prove it To a noble life can you commit? Doing good works with humility Not being jealous bitterly No selfish ambition in your heart Or from the truth do you depart? Following evil and disorder? Or can you be a virtue supporter? Pure wisdom is peace loving, Gentle at all times, and to others conceding It is full of mercy and good deeds Shows no elitism being sincere with ease Where do fights and arguments come from? To immoral desires have we succumbed We scheme and murder to get what we want Trying to satisfy our envious heart Let us not give in to our selfish pride To a humble life may we decide May wicked ambition be denied So for peace and wisdom we can abide

Inspired by Luke 16:1-13 Each generation has their shrewd weasels Who are more cunning than reputable people  You can make friends using worldly riches But when it’s gone, can you cross heavenly bridges? If you are faithful in little things       You will be faithful in larger ones  But if you’re dishonest in little things       You won’t be honest with greater sums If you’re untrustworthy with worldly abundance  Who can trust you with divine inheritance? And if you can’t be trusted with other people’s things  How can you be trusted with your own belongings? No one can serve two separate masters  You’ll be devoted to one, but despise the other  You cannot serve a Higher Power  And something else that just lacks honor 

Inspired by Luke 12:13-34 Beware!  Guard against every kind of greed Life is not measured by how much you own Nothing from this world is guaranteed  Earthly wealth can be unsown Life is worth more than food Bodies worth more than clothing  What does worrying contribute  Except anxiety and is foreboding  Our Father already knows our needs Seek His Kingdom above all else  Everything is ours to receive  We hold the keys to Heaven itself! Wherever we place our treasure  There our heart’s desires are  No need to give into worldly pressure  And keep your relationship with God afar Lord I do believe but help my unbelief Remind me how this life is so brief Worldly sorrow keeps me in grief Yet trusting in You brings me relief
