Comfort Zone


God of all comfort? ... 2 Corinthians 1..

Comfort? Comfort? Thanks but may I politely decline.

I don’t understand if it’s that you can’t see me.

See that I’m hunting... and I need saving.

 

Ok let me explain just in case you don’t see that

... they hurt me bad and

... they’re making me mad

It’s like they are sucking my soul through a straw

And I thought Pastor said that everything you saw.

I might as well be on death row

‘cause your silence is like a noose

 

I’m looking for the God of Elijah..

To rain down fire on those who defy me

I’m looking for the God of Moses..

To part the rivers of pain that drown me

I’m looking for the God of Ezekiel..

To breath back life into my dry bones

I’m looking for the God of Daniel..

‘Cause the furnace is being prepped and the lions are hungry

I’m looking for the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob & Joseph..

 

To take this cup away from me.

Yes not YOUR will, but MINE be done.

They include:

Give me dancing for my mourning

Exchange my tears of sorrow for joy

Give me peace without anxiety

And Give them to me NOW.

 

Because I ask all these in your name JESUS and I know good things alone are your portion for me. J

 

Finally I hear you speak and you say:

‘My grace is Sufficient  for you, as My strength is made perfect in your weakness...

Contort not my words dear child for I promise to Comfort you in your troubles as you share in My sufferings.

 

For I gave up my only son, flawless without a spot or blemish to be executed for your ungrateful self. That you may be awarded the freedom you neither work for nor deserve. And you may be called joint heirs with Christ.

 

So before you go on preaching to me my word, remember my WORD was born, beaten, bled and died for you and was resurrected so you can have the unrestricted uninterrupted access to chat to me without the fear of being struck down from heaven as in the days of Moses, Elijah & Ezekiel. For I know the end from the beginning, because I am the alpha and omega. And while you were still in sin I gave to die in your place. So like Christ’ undeserved suffering, yours also has a purpose.’

 

Now I embrace my suffering and I boast of my weaknesses for his master plan ... is that my experience makes me qualified to comfort you

Compromise

Compromise is a Prison!!
In Christ Jesus there is liberty.

I am going to stop searching for love,
for God who is Love lives in me.

I have spoken so many words,
Yet to him, i have said nothing
Though my thoughts run wild like a circus,
yet with him am like - Ok.. whatever
Whatever to prevent a fight
Whatever to avoid that debate
Whatever just not to talk
Whatever to be left alone..

I feel like there something missing
and if i turn and focus only on YOU
then u'll fill this void and i'll be OK again
Cos YOU love me , YOU want me...

But cos i don't see you, n i see him
I don't see you, but i hear his words...
Even though i know YOUR voice..!!
I listen......
he says he loves me...
he says he wants me...

And though i heard Your voice and know what Your love commands... i follow his.
..... You'll still forgive me right??.......

So after a nice chinese meal,
a beautiful movie with sides..
and some caring words.... he expects more~
More what??? more of me?
No, not my words .. now i don't have to talk?
'No babe' he says ' just act right'..
Is 'NO' not a show of my love?
'u've come this far..m might aswell finish the race'
' u know i love u babe right...'

Now am working out how much my dinner and movie costs...
to figure how much i have to pay back...
seems the maths doesn't add up..!
I hear YOUR voice again, much louder than before..
" I LOVE U.. I DIED FOR YOU.. EVEN WHEN U DIDNT KNOW ME..
MY LOVE IS FREE.. CHOOSE ME"

Compromise is a Prison.
Cos even though you know whats right,
you argue over what's wrong.
Compromise is a time stealer.
It drags you back through mountains you had climbed before.
Compromise shifts focus from God to the situation

It makes u feel ashamed and tells u u can't turn back
It makes you think you can get out by yourself
But you've run out of 'get out of jail free' cards,
and the bail is set.. its Blood.
