The Lord Restores His People

Inspired by Zechariah chapter 10

Ask the Lord for rain in the spring
For HE makes the storm clouds
And they will praise Him and sing
So the flowers can abound

Lucky charms are just worthless
To deceit psychics have pressured 
So His people are in danger so perilous
Like lost sheep without their shepherd

"THE LORD WILL PUNISH FALSE HERDSMEN
FOR I WILL LOOK AFTER MY OWN FLOCK
I WILL MAKE THEM STRONG AND POTENT
THEY'LL BE HARDENED LIKE A ROCK

"FROM JUDAH COMES THE CORNERSTONE
MIGHTY WARRIORS GOING INTO BATTLE
ALL THE ENEMIES WILL BE OVERTHROWN
STRENGTHENING AND SAVING ISRAEL

"THEIR HEARTS WILL BE MADE HAPPY
AS IF THEY HAD DRANK NEW WINE
THE HAPPINESS WILL BE CATCHY
WITH CHILDREN GLAD IN THE DIVINE

"THEY WILL ALL COME RUNNING
SINCE THEY ARE REDEEMED
FROM DISTANT LANDS THEY'RE RUSHING
FROM DISTANT LANDS THEY'RE ESTEEMED

"PASSING SAFELY 
     THROUGH THE SEA OF DISTRESS
FOR THE WAVES OF THE SEA
     WILL BE HELD BACK
IT IS THROUGH ME THEY WILL FIND SUCCESS
AS THEIR TROUBLES WILL STAY ON THE BANK

"BY MY POWER I MAKE MY PEOPLE STRONG
BY MY AUTHORITY THEY GO 
     WHEREVER THEY WISH
FOR IT WAS BY MY STRENGTH ALL ALONG
THAT MY PEOPLE WILL FLOURISH"

The True Enemy

Inspired by Numbers 25 & Matthew Henry's commentary While the Israelites were camped at Acacia Grove To defile themselves the men willingly chose Seduced by Moabite women and their deities Making the Lord angry and release His fury Rapport with the wicked is more harmful than enmity It is our immoral desires that is the true enemy Giving into worldly interests and its pleasures Forgetting to put the Lord at our core and center Let us execute His vengeance in zeal and faith To remain in His good graces and holy estate So God may make a special covenant of peace And His divine favor upon us may increase God punishes the wicked not with a rod But with swords exposing their profane facade Punishing those who tempt others to fail While His righteousness will always prevail

More Than Conquerers

Inspired by Matthew Henry's  commentary  on Numbers chapter 21 Before our march to the Promised Land We may find ourselves in enemy's hands But let us look thoroughly to the Lord Our only way to keep moving forward So instead of Arad, we have Hormah As the enemy's sins are enormous God will bring about their destruction His love for His children brings protection But as we continue on our journey We can be impatient and be in a hurry Then complain about the Lord's provision Bringing about the Lord's derision The serpent comes back to bite at our heels Making our grievances his meal Our very lives does he greedily steal Making us look up so we can be healed Look up and see the serpent of bronze Do not fear death that corresponds The venom may stir up our sinful passions But only the Lord can bring salvation Do not forget and always remember When God blessed us with living water Our expectations should be tempered And only rely on His Grace and His Favor Wicked men tr...
