- Fiction No
I knew I must dig down, to get past the sifting sand
A solid foundation I must have, for the building at hand
So I started removing the top soil, and the things I did see
Things I never imagined, that were staring back at me,
Things that were hid and buried many years in the past
Some smaller items of trash,that frankly left me aghast
I was amazed and bewildered and wondered how or why
These things were not dealt with, I had turned a blind eye
I created this beautiful landscape, on the surface it is very nice
Now this has surfaced, and for my foundation shall never suffice
I felt the presence of the Holy Spirit as He began to speak
These things will serve only, to make your foundation weak
You must dig deeper in order to build higher, dig down to the Rock
And then you shall see,the strength that is there,that you can unlock
Wait !! Wait !! I can hear the voice of a prophet from the days of old
Behold, I will send my messenger, and He shall prepare the way
Before Me: and the Lord, whom ye seek shall suddenly come
To His temple,even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye
Delight in: behold, He shall come, saith the Lord of Hosts.
But who may abide the day of His coming ? And who shall stand
When He appeareth ? For He is like a refiner's fire, and fullers soap
And He shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and He shall purify
The sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may
Offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness.
And then the power of the Holy Spirit of God swept over me like a
Gentle soft breeze and I fell to my knees and cried Holy !! Holy !!
Are you my Lord, My God, my Saviour, my Master, help me to
Do Your will, my spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. Refine me O'
God that I may be acceptable in Your sight.
The Holy Spirit whispered to me and said to me, I know sometimes
You think I am being hard on you, but remember I am that messenger
Sent to you by the Father, I am here to prepare a Bride for His Son.
Dig deeper in to your soul, and remove every facade
Makes no difference what you call it, it is simply fraud
The messenger has come for one reason,that is to provide
To the Father in Heaven, a gift to His Son, a spotless Bride
Rejoice, all of Gods people,when He puts you in the fire
He is refining you, for you are chosen and His only desire
To anoint you and get you ready for that heavenly choir.
Help us O' Blessed Holy Spirit to tear down our Facade !!
