That One Dance

We were many

Dressed in royal garments

Studded with gemstones

Waiting for the bridegroom

 

We were all longing

To dance with Him

As we all searched

The great ballroom

In Heaven

For the great Master

 

Then He appeared

And we all fell at His feet

In adoration and worship

My face was facedown

And my mouth kissed the floor

And it seemed like my nose

Was stuck to the floor

 

Then I saw the golden sandals

Beside me

And realized He was

Standing beside me

 

I looked up

And He stretched out

His right hand to me

Smiling gently

With love

 

His blue eyes sparkled

And twinkled

And rays of light

Emanated from them

Enveloping me

 

I gave Him

My right hand and

He pulled me up

Into His arms

His gaze fixed firmly

On my face

 

I looked downwards

With great shyness

Because I felt swallowed up

By His mesmerising deep gaze

 

I hid my face on

His shoulder

And we danced

 

As we danced

He bent towards my face

And whispered into my ear,

“Those who wait upon me

And seek my face

Will dance with me

Eat with me

And experience my glory.

They will touch me

Taste me

Feel me

Eat me

And see my face,

As I come upon them.

To dance with me means

Intimate fellowship

And baptism of

My Holy Spirit and fire

It means drinking and tasting

My Spirit

And basking in my glory and fire

Tell my children that

I want to dance with them.”

Gold In My Belly – Chapter 2

MEMORIES OF RACHEAL

I can remember that day so well

Very long ago

It was summer

And I had fallen asleep

On my garden sofa

In my back garden

The blaring sound

of siren woke me up

And I though to myself,

“Police! Police!”

As I jumped up from my sleep

Startled and dazed

Wondering if something bad

Was happening on my street

Then the sound

Gently receded and retreated

Slowly fading away

And there was sudden calm

The soft evening breeze

Caressed my cheek

And I felt more alive

Than ever

I stretched myself on the sofa

And immediately I put my head on the sofa

I fell into a trance

I looked and all I could see

Was a great sea

Within a hundred yards

From where I was

I saw a crowd of lovely ladies

The crowd was huge, so huge

Over a million

All waking on the sea

And emerging from the sea

With roses, tiara’s and crowns

“We must crown you.” They all echoed

Bowing as they said it.

“No I said, get away from me.”

The female leader of the group

Tall and perfect in beauty

Stepped into my garden and a regal looking man

Of authority accompanied her – he was obviously a prince.

“You are making a great mistake,

We won’t leave you alone

Until you yield.

We want you

Because you are a great asset

Your blood is gold and pure

And a delight to us

Come to us.”

She turned to the prince standing beside her.

“This is Del,

The prince of Nada Kingdom.” The prince was very

Striking and extremely handsome. The robe he had on dazzled with

Gems and unearthly beauty.

I starred at the prince in dismay

Wondering why they were disturbing my evening rest

I shook my head as I carefully examined him.

“Handsome but not my type.”

I muttered under my breath

“What?”

The prince asked, obviously insulted and not pleased

“Oh you heard me? Well, I was talking to myself.”

“You dare to defy me me?”

My laugh was shrill and out of this world.

“Why not? I shrugged as I got up from the sofa, stepped forward

And looked straight into his eyes, not scared or afraid

of his power. I looked into His eyes with scorn.

Shafts of fire were beginning to proceed out of His eyes.

“What a mess, I am not gonna waste my time with you,

“Disappear or fire will swallow you.”

The prince moved closer to me and a golden cloud appeared and encircled me.

Prince Del was breathtaking in beauty

He was powerful

However I despised him

He was nothing compared

The Prince of princes that was around me.

At the sight of the golden cloud,

Prince Del instantly transformed into a beast, screened in terror

and evaporated into the air as thick smelly green mist filled the air.

I opened my eyes and realized I was very hungry. I went into my house and the doorbell

was ringing. There was smoke everywhere and the fire alarm shrilled into my perplexed bones.

Holy River

Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb (Revelation 22:1 ESV)

There is a river
Great and powerful
Called the water
Of life
Bright as crystal
Holy and pure
Purified and purifying
Healing us
Sanctifying us
Delivering us
From sin
And the effects of sin

Lord
Let this Holy River
Wash over us
And cleanse us
Because our greatest
Love is you
And our greatest desire
Is the Precious River
The water of life

This Yearning Heart Of Mine

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins (1 John 4:10 NKJV)

He loved us first
Yes He did
Even when we
Were unattractive
And lost in sin
He loved us
So that we
Can need Him
And go to Him
For satisfaction.

No where to go
No where but
At the feet of
The master

No where else to go
When I am hungry
When I am thirsty
When I am naked
I have nowhere
Else to go

I will run to you
Jesus
For spiritual food
And water
To quench this thirst
Of mine
For only you
Can truly satisfy
This yearning heart
Of mine

Wall Of Fire

For I,’ says the LORD, ‘will be a wall of fire all around her, and I will be the glory in her midst.’ ” (Zechariah 2:5 NKJV)

And the LORD, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.” (Deuteronomy 31:8 NKJV)

And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits And His ministers a flame of fire (Hebrews 1:7 NKJV)

And the power of the Lord was present to heal them (Luke 5:17 NKJV)

Imagine a wall of fire all around you to protect you always. Glory! This an awesome promise from our God. Fire is the manifest presence of God that consumes all evil and that promised fire is the best gift of all. Jesus promised us that we will be baptised with the Holy Ghost and fire. This fire is the Holy fire that consumes all evil. It is pure, undiluted holy power. It is the fire that heals the sick and forces demons to tremble, bow and flee.

If we believe that God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him then , we have faith to approach the throne of grace for this fire. That is all we need to be super victorious as believers and ministers. Those who crave this fire and are hungry for this fire will be baptised and surrounded by fire.

And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night (Exodus 13:21 NKJV)

Then he said to Him, “If Your Presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here (Exodus 33:15 NKJV)

If the great men of old including our Lord Jesus, needed this fire to be protected and victorious, we also need fire. We need to keep praying with faith and persistence until we are transformed into fire and become flames of fire.

The Light

God is so bright and beautiful that darkness cannot go near Him. There is nothing good about darkness because it is darkness that breeds every form of evil.

Any evil you see on earth is as a result of darkness. Darkness starts from the mind, when men engage in lies or false thoughts. Any thought that does not agree with God’s thoughts and point of view is pure darkness.

When God has labelled something evil, we must not claim to know more than God by reversing the word of God and claiming that the evil thing is in fact good.

I have met Christians who ardently argue that fornication, homosexuality and idol worship are are not sin. Wow, Christians, not really believers in the word of God. They are in the category of those who say Lord, Lord.

Christ is in their lips but not in their hearts. They actually hate Christ and His word and light but are so blind they do not realise it. This is because the god of this world has blinded their spiritual eyes or mind.

Whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. (2nd Corinthians 4:4)

God Himself is light and no child of light is comfortable inside darkness or lies. People who love evil things however love lies and darkness. They enjoy evil and even boast about evil exploits.

And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. “For everyone practising evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. “But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God (John 3:19 – 3:21 NKJV)

Those who love darkness hate the word of God and in some places Christians are targeted and killed, simply for loving the light.

The word of God says that darkness has never overcome light. This is because a place that radiates with glorious light and is light itself has been prepared for children of light while a place of complete darkness and gloom awaits the lovers of darkness and evil.

The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light. And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honour into it (Revelation 21:23 – 21:24 NKJV)

There is no darkness in God and there should no darkness or stain in us as believers. Our garments should always be clean and white. The blood of Jesus is constantly available to wash us white as snow and to also provide grace and  ability to be victorious over sin and darkness. All we need is hatred for sin and darkness and absolute dependence on the Holy Spirit for sanctification .

And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. “For everyone practising evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. “But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God (John 3:19 – 3:21 NKJV)

Light is good and it is wonderful to belong to the kingdom of light where light is King. There is no darkness in God.

Good Things

 

If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him! (Matthew 7:11 NKJV)

If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” (Luke 11:13 NKJV)

It is important to note that this scripture says, those who ask. It did not say those who wish or desire. Desire is very good and we must start with desire, however we must verbalise our desire by asking. We must formally present our desire to God in prayer.

I indeed baptise you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and fire. (Matthew 3:11 NKJV)

God wants us to get to that point where we realise that without him we can do nothing. This is the place complete surrender and absolute dependence and reliance on God.

We need the Holy Spirit more than air and oxygen, and that realisation is actually great wisdom. Wisdom however comes from God.

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. (James 1:5 NKJV)

God will keep leading us step by step until we get to that place where we treasure Christ’s Spirit like the hidden treasure in the parables of Jesus. When that man stumbled upon the hidden treasure he forsook all else for the sake of hidden treasure.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field (Matthew 13:44 NKJV)

The Holy Spirit is the one who makes the Kingdom of heaven manifest or visible on earth. He makes you experience the tangible presence of God with heavenly visions and dreams.

Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is within us. All we need is to ask God for good things and the greatest good thing is the Holy Spirit and fire.
