Enter Into His Rest

Posted on by Marla

 Too much mind Lord
Cluttered with thoughts and plans
Not designed by your hand…
Too many miles, Lord, how can I ask for more…?
Stranded in a broken deserted land…
People complaining never content…
Like jackals fighting over their prey
Struggling for all they can get; very little pay…
You asked once….
“Will I find faith on earth, when I return one day?”
The days are darkened;
And like zombies all obey, the socialized media, with the games we play
Keeping us mesmerized, mind controlled, staring with each and every scroll,
Down and down we go…to the virtual world below…
We use Jesus for a magic ride…
Religion turns the ocean’s tide…
Into something unknown so we justify…
Self is more important, we believe the lie…
Holy God and Holy Son shatter this abominable disguise
Help us to lift our eyes…
To you the only truth there is…
Help us once again…be purified…
To die to self and live in you
Let this be our mantra true…
God forgive us…we mustn’t rule…
We sit upon your rightful throne while taking your holy name in vain
Return us to your blessed home…
So we can rest in you again…
Let us enter into the holy place
Where we see Jesus’ redeeming face
God set our hearts ablaze…
So there’s no more disgrace…
Let us enter into your blessed rest…
Shake our hearts until we fall on you
Waken us out of this hypnotic test
Snap your fingers and we will not protest…
God let us enter into your holiness
And there we’ll find our rest…
Amen.

Hebrews 4:10-11 The Message (MSG) And so this is still a live promise. It wasn’t canceled at the time of Joshua; otherwise, God wouldn’t keep renewing the appointment for “today.” The promise of “arrival” and “rest” is still there for God’s people. God himself is at rest. And at the end of the journey we’ll surely rest with God. So let’s keep at it and eventually arrive at the place of rest, not drop out through some sort of disobedience.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
