The TIRED, OLD WARRIOR

 

Ephesians 6:11

King James Version

11 Put on the whole armour of God, 

that ye may be able to stand 

against the wiles of the devil.

I get dreams,

forever battling something.

This time,

I fought black scorpions.

So large and thick-shelled,

my metal spear clanked.

Then one scorpion shrinks,

goes into a young girl's back.

Possessively,

an older woman hovers over her.

Not good, 

not good at all.

The parasite must not,

ever reach the young girl's heart.

Then I espied a tired, old warrior,

sitting, wounded, and depleted.

He looks up at me,

would I continue the fight?

I take up the cudgel,

following both women.

The THREE SCIENTISTS

 

Genesis 2:7

King James Version

7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, 

and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; 

and man became a living soul.

I saw them in a dream,

many many years ago.

All huddled together.

THREE molecular biologists.

Looking worried, 

oblivious to my presence.

We were inside a church,

strange thing.

One was American;

another, German.

But the French,

he comes by my way.

Smiles, and hands me,

a card with his name on it.

Michel,

the friendly French scientist.

But you see, 

it was just a dream.

Of how the scientists know,

something we don’t.

I was the outsider,

looking in.

PRINCE of the AIR

 

Ephesians 2:2

King James Version

2 Wherein in time past ye walked 

according to the course of this world, 

according to the prince of the power of the air, 

the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

He’s so subtle,

you would never suspect.

Where heavy dreams are,

he can be found.

Where storms rage,

he is responsible.

Where chaos is,

he is perpetrator.

Where doubt surfaces,

he’s been there.

Where confusion abounds,

he smiles knowingly.

Where tornadoes whirl,

he’s in the midst of it.

When men fight,

he’s surely instigator.

When men lust,

he drools alongside.

Where there is greed,

his talons are.

Where the SON is,

he can’t be found.

He’s been called,

the prince of the air.

At other times,

the ruler of the world.

Oftentimes,

the deceiver.

GOD's BOOK,

said so.

He smiles,

in acknowledgment.

Humans are such,

very tasty morsels.

Thus, he’s made,

his home here.

With no one,

ever suspecting.

And has been enjoying,

a very long reign.

And a reign,

that cannot be reined in.

With no one,

ever suspecting.

Go back to sleep,

humanity!

The prince of the air,

watches over you.

Closely,

ever so cruelly.

Now, if you wish to be FREE,

you know what to do.

JESUS waits.

PERFECT KNOWLEDGE

 

Job 36:4

King James Version

4 For truly my words shall not be false: 

he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.

I feel blessed,

to finally have found it.

I’ve searched for absolute truth,

and it was God.

I’ve searched for the absolute book,

and it was the Bible.

I’ve searched for the way to God,

and it was Jesus.

I’ve searched for the absolute teacher,

and it was the Holy Spirit.

The best knowledge,

has always been the simplest.

CONGESTION is ATTACK

 

1 Peter 5:8

King James Version

8 Be sober, 

be vigilant; 

because your adversary the devil, 

as a roaring lion, 

walketh about, 

seeking whom he may devour:

People laugh,

thinking I’m nuts.

The common cold,

is so common.

That people think,

nothing of it.

It’s just cough,

it’s just phlegm.

No, no,

nothing at all.

I’ll lick this problem,

the medicines will do it.

In the meantime,

they’re wracked with cough.

Their head feels clogged,

their lungs feel congested.

The destroyer smiles,

the deed’s been done.

SPIRITUAL WARRIORSHIP

 

Ephesians 6:12

King James Version

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, 

but against principalities, 

against powers, 

against the rulers of the darkness of this world, 

against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Many know it not,

But we battle with the unseen.

 

The kind,

that has infiltrated the world.

 

Infecting every system,

owning the world.

 

And the prince of it,

laughs at us all.

 

Unsuspecting humans,

food for his kingdom.

 

So, we all go about our way,

thinking all is well.

 

And he goes about his way,

thinking all is well.

 

For humans are asleep,

so very, very asleep.
