Habitation

What does God desire?

What does God require?

But true communion

And true union

Becoming ONE

In His Son

Who builds a HABITATION

Among the nations

A holy relation

With the God of creation

Lively stones

Built together as His home

He went away

He did say

To prepare a place

A set apart space

For us to dwell

So, He explained, "All is well."

But that was only half the story

It gets better, never boring!

He said, "I will build My qahal

As though Adam never did fall.

A place for Us (Elohim) to dwell

A living tabernacle and well

That never runs dry

And she doesn't even have to try

Cause We (Elohim) will fill her

And instill her

With Our very essence

And she will carry our presence."

That's the other half of the story

I told you it never gets boring

We need not wait

For some appointed day

Our time is now

It's time to live out loud

The vision of Heaven

The perpetual day called Seven

Enter His rest

Experience His best

And never less

Than HABITATION

As His set apart nation

Cause that's what God desires

And that's what God requires

True communion

And true union

Becoming ONE in the Son

Who builds a HABITATION

Among the nations

One lively stone upon another

Building up our sisters and brothers

Regardless of apparent differences

Tear down the fences

Let go defenses

It's time to build

It's time to be filled

With God's essence

And presence

As one holy HABITATION

And one holy nation

Built up to reveal glory

And proclaim redemption's story

Christ revealed IN a people

Christ manifested THROUGH a people

No more man made steeples

But a city built by Christ alone

And a people become God's home!

I AM the Word

"I AM the Word, and you are My message.

I AM the Teacher, and you are My lesson.

I AM the Word, and you are My letter.

I send you forth to break every fetter.

You are My principle setter.

I AM the King, and you wear My signet ring.

Through you, to the world My peace I bring.

I AM the Solution, and you are My revolution.

Though many perceive you as an intrusion.

I AM the Bridegroom, and you are My bride.

My intimate secrets to you I confide.

With you, I share My passion, and you put it into action.

I AM! Therefore, you are!

I flow through you, no holds barred.

I AM the Light, and you are My star.

I AM! Therefore, you are!"

Christ, the I AM

I AM Your Liberator

"I AM a Liberator
An Incubator
Of Freedom
Religion & Legalism
You don't need 'em
Only the constraints
Of covenanal Ahavah
The Law of Love
And mindset from above
Will smash the idols
And truly set My people free
To truly SEE as I SEE
Setting captives free...
Now dat's Me!
So, they can truly be
Who I made them
Sons and friends
Fellow liberators
To the ends
Of the Earth
Capitalizing on the worth
Of their new birth
I AM a Liberator
An Incubator
Of freedom
So many got Me all wrong
Singing all kinds of crazy songs
Calling My name
To their own shame
Cause if they truly knew Me
They'd SEE
I AM a Liberator
An Incubator
Of Freedom..."

Christ Your Liberator

The Ocean is Before You

 The Ocean is before you

And the Ocean adores you

But you stand ankle deep

Only wetting your feet

You desire Me to speak

You want Me to prophesy

A lie

Saying you tried

But you were denied

When I died

I was crucified

I stretched My arms wide

And I rose from the grave

So, you’d no longer be a slave

So, you could abide in Me

And you could reside in Me

The Ocean is before you

And the Ocean adores you

But you stand ankle deep

Only wetting your feet

I AM the Ocean

And I desire your devotion

But you’re caught up in emotion

I don’t bring magical potion

I give you My devotion

And declare to you I AM the Ocean

I AM standing before you

And I adore you

But you stand ankle deep

Only wetting your feet

You desire Me to speak

You want Me to prophesy

A lie

Saying you tried

But you were denied

When I died

I was crucified

I stretched My arms wide

And I rose from the grave

So, you’d no longer be a slave

So, you could abide in Me

And you could reside in Me

The Ocean is before you

And the Ocean adores you

But you stand ankle deep

Only wetting your feet

So, this is what I speak

And this is what I prophesy

I didn’t just try

I died

That you’d never be denied

I rose giving you a decision

To choose your vision

Now it’s up to you

Choose your point of view

Remain ankle deep

Waiting for Me to speak

Or take a giant leap

And immerse yourself in Me

It’s time to set yourself free

And stop waiting on Me.

I AM standing before you

And I adore you

Come out into the deep

Immerse your head to your feet

In Me, you will find all that you seek

When you immerse yourself in Me.

The Ocean is before you

And the Ocean adores you

But you stand ankle deep

Only wetting your feet

So, make your decision

And choose your vision

For the Ocean is before you.

Enough for Me

What am I breathing for?

What is my heart beating for?

What are my veins bleeding for?

I search high, and I search low

Cause I just wanna know

What am I breathing for?

What is my heart beating for?

What are my veins bleeding for?

Why am I not satisfied?

Though I know You stretched Your arms wide

And for me You died

Yet, I’m still not satisfied

Though I know You reside

In me

And set me free

For all eternity

I’m still not satisfied

Even though I know

I died with You

Was made alive with You

And reside in You

Even though I know You abide in Me

For all eternity

I’m still not satisfied

And still my soul cries…

What am I breathing for?

What is my heart beating for?

What are my veins bleeding for?

What is my soul still needing for?

When I know You are the Door

To Eternal Life

And I’m Your beloved wife

Yet, my soul still strives

To feel fully alive

Even as Your chosen Bride

For whom You died

And rose to take as Your beloved wife

I came forth from Your bleeding side

Yet, my soul still cries

What am I breathing for?

What is my heart beating for?

What are my veins bleeding for?

Stop!  Look!  And listen!

Don’t get the Gospel twisted

Did you think

That by faith you’d blink

And struggle would be no more

All because you walked through eternity’s Door?

If you never hungered

And never wondered

What you’re breathing for

What your heart’s beating for

What your veins are bleeding for

You’d never seek My face

So, I could fill your empty space

And make you My dwelling place

Let Me tell you what you need

Is to become a receiver of seed

By becoming fertile soil

And a vessel of precious oil

Not so that you can toil

And strive with all your might

But so that you can reside

In Me, your resting place

Beholding My glorious face

So that you can learn to be

Exactly what you see

As you behold Me

So that you can learn to trust

And rid yourself of the lust

To know and control

Even the hunger of your own soul

Let Me tell you

What you’re breathing for

What your heart’s beating for

What your veins are bleeding for

Your purpose is to become

Wholly one

As a mature son

To be My habitation

That every nation

May hasten their feet

To feel My heartbeat

Through you

So, just be you

Let your lungs keep breathing

Let your heart keep beating

And your veins keep bleeding

Cause in each moment of life

I’m perfecting your sight

And displaying more light

Through you

As you just be you

Behold, I make all things new

Grace is My mission

But flesh keeps wishing

To take My place

And that’s why there’s empty space

But grace will enable you

To see My face

For I AM what you’re breathing for

I AM what your heart’s beating for

And I AM what your veins are bleeding for

Look no more

But to Me, the Door

Of Eternal Life

And the Giver of sight

To the blind

And the final sign

That you’ve entered rest

And are fully blessed

With no need to strive

To be fully alive

Cause I AM what you’re breathing for

I AM what your heart’s beating for

And I AM what your veins are bleeding for

You need to awaken

And to hasten

To the understanding

That though life can be demanding

My grace is enough

No matter how tough

The struggle you face

My grace is the Way

To enter the third day

Called resurrection

So, make this confession

Lord, YOU ARE what I’m breathing for

YOU ARE what my heart’s beating for

And YOU ARE what my veins are bleeding for

Your grace is enough for me

I receive Your Love for me

And declare that I can see

Myself standing in Victory

Because YOU ARE enough for me!

Yes!  YOU are ENOUGH for me!

Haiti: My Country I Love

Haiti 🇭🇹 is my country I love. 
It is kissed by my Beloved. 
I bless her with the fruit of my lips. 
Her beauty I cannot resist. 
I call her children my own. 
Into her, my life I have sown. 
She is the land of covenant for me. 
My Bethel where my eyes were FIRST opened to SEE, 
And I first learned to BE who I BE 
In my true essential identity. 
NO MAN can curse her, you SEE. 
For when I behold her, it is only LOVE that I SEE. 
Just remember, one day ALL shall bow their knee 
And be set FREE from unjust partiality. 
For in the eyes of Christ 
Who paid the ultimate price 
We shall behold one another and finally declare, 
"BEHOLD! We are ALL sisters and brothers
Fathers and mothers 
Of the SAME family called humanity! 
We all contain Abba's DNA 
And are all CALLED to FOLLOW THE WAY
"What WAY?" did you say? 
There's only ONE WAY! 
CHRIST WHO IS LOVE 
He is my BELOVED. 
In Him, we are ONE! 
ONE LOVE... ONE BLOOD... 
In the Son 
May our hearts ALL be WON 
By the WAY of the SON 
The WAY of LOVE! 
And the WAY of our ABBA above.

Passion

Passion

When religion is stripped away

All that is left is passion

Not tradition, form or fashion

But unbridled passion

For action.

This passion drives you

Let it surprise you

Leading you to Abba's heart

Inside of you

Then you will see the joy

Set before you

And how Abba adores you

Like Christ, you will sacrifice

Your all and all for ahavah

Because you will be driven

By your God breathed "one thing"

Like David, you will sing,

"One thing have I desired..."

I've endured the mirk and mire

Just to taste and see God's goodness

In this 'one thing'

Cause it's my passion

Not based on form and fashion

But it's my unbridled passion

Awaiting my action

My who drives my do

And passion will drive you too

It is engraved in your DNA

It is Christ, the Way

Manifested through each and every day

Through your passion driven action

The wisdom of God is revealed

And your identity is sealed

Providing a nutritious meal

Not only for you,

But for others too

All for Christ's sake

So, it's time to awake

You have meat you knew not

It is to do the will of Abba

So, follow your passion

And put it into action

NOW!  This moment today

There's no need to pray

About it

Or to doubt it

The passion inside of you

Is meant to drive you

To Abba's heart

Cause by it, you are marked

With purpose

Hidden beneath the surface

Of who you think you are

Is a bright blazing star

Waiting to be revealed

In the fullness of LIGHT

So, let it shine bright

Through your passion

Driven action.
