Tree

Make like a Tree
and may your light
shine on me forever
Let my branches stretch
from the east to the west
Make me grow upward
till I reach heaven
among the clouds
Let my roots go down
deep under mountains
to underground streams
of the purest waters
and into mineral rich earth
May all the goodness
You placed in the ground
fill my veins traveling upwards
and into my leaves
Shine on me
strengthen me
uphold me
so that hurricanes, storms,
strong winds are but
as an autumn breeze
Let me rejoice among all the trees
because you have removed
them that destroy the earth
and established me
Your praise
Your joy
Your glory
Your true witness.
Let the birds come
and make their nest
high above the ground
among the clouds
and bring my fruit
forward at her seasons
give me twelve kinds
so that the people of
the earth may be blessed
and always full
and never hungry
You have planted me, O God
and your light has
cause me to grow
with your living water.

Daniel 2:44,45
John 15:1,2

Been Down For Too Long

Who can Love like we do
search it
who among all the nations
have held so close to you
when all the kings of the earth
were drinking
till they stumbled
did not we stand
and resisted
waves of destruction
We cried out
Justice for everybody,
or Justice for nobody.
was it not us who
reminded the people
that they had the power
"Power to the people"
We rose up out of the ashes
like truth that can't die
and stood boldly
defiantly, manly
and said,
"It's a new day, and a new generation, and
change must come"
It's time to wake up
people, you been down for to long,
and NOW IS THE TIME.
See, Lord, our spirit that
you have place in us, bears
witness that we are your
sons and daughters.
Romans 8:16

Spiritual Warfare

We are in spiritual warfare not against other men, but the spiritual demon himself called the devil and Satan, that old serpent. He enters into the hearts of men to entice them unto error and evil using instant gratification and the desire for pleasure. This can be for food, sex, money, revenge, hate and any other things that stir the emotions and appetites of individual men and women. But this is not to the persons benefit, rather it often leads them to greater pain and struggles in their lives. Satan wants this for mankind, that they may suffer and eventually die. Many people do not realize that they are under attack by this evil force.  However, once our eyes are open spiritually we understand that we are in the midst of spiritual warfare and must fight back.
Satan attacks because of God's future plan for humanity. God's desire is to eventually restore the earth and all mankind back you the beginning, where God's physical presence is with man. In this new era that God is working to establish, sin would have no rule or power over the minds of men to bring about pain and chaos. This is because all humanity would know God and his Messiah, as the Bible says, form the least to the greatest. And the kingdom of evil would come to its end.
Out of envy and jealously for the future of man the Devil continually strives to destroy mankind, especially the saints of God; those who are conscious of right and wrong. They have the ability to challenge him and help other to overcome him as well. However, Satan knows that though man may know God, they are still flesh and blood and therefore subject to the possibility of sin-which is a test of faith to resist. This sin that is in them can be triggered by desires, greed, and ignorance, which Satan uses in his plots to overthrow them from achieving their destiny in God.
But God has not left us without a defense. He has outlined in the Holy Scriptures what we should do to resist the Devil. Consider these five steps that you can take in the midst of spiritual warfare or if you're undergoing a temptation to sin.

1. Confess your sin or struggle with a fellow believer or spiritual leader in Christ and request that they pray for you as an intercessor. Christ, the scripture states, prays for us to the Father daily that we may overcome the evil one or Satan. Therefore, praying in unity with other believers is a critical weapon in our battle. ( 1 John 1:9, Rom. 8: 26,27)
2. Look to the Holy Scriptures in sincere faith as your guidebook to life and spiritual warfare. Also, see it as your primary teacher, along with the Holy Spirit God has given us till He restores all things. The words of God are sure and faithful. ( 2 Peter 1:19,20,21, John 16:13)
3. Seek counsel from a body of elders or ministers of God's word, who care about you and your salvation into God's kingdom. They will provide the wisdom and comfort to help you break through the strongholds of the devil in your life. They through study, prayer, and continual ministering are able to strengthen you. ( James 5: 14,15, 16, Proverbs 20:18)
4. Resist the Devil at all times, through obeying God's commandments: know that the more your resist him, he will run from you. Because light is greater than darkness, and good overcomes evil. (James 4:7, Rom. 12:21, Eccl. 2:13)
5. Never let anything or force cause you to abandon your faith in God and Christ. Keep your faith even unto death. ( Rev. 2:10,11, 2 Tim. 4:7,8)

And above all things, brethren, hold onto the covenant of our new hope: Love God with all you heart, strength, and soul, and Love your neighbor as you love yourself. If you meditate on this, memorize this, believe this, act on this, you will never fall from the grace we have from God in Christ our Lord, no matter what attacks may come from Devil.
Matt. 22: 37,38,39,40, James 2:8)

Rainbow Country

Your words are music to my soul
And I'm gonna to dance up this world
Your words, they comfort me
on my journey
Every morning at sunrise
You meet me
and at sunset I hear you say,
" I'm with you and no one will harm you-
Rest and sleep now.
Tomorrow I will overthrow all
your enemies.
At the rising of Zion, you shall be there
In that promise land,
that rainbow country
O, the sun is rising,
Zion is arising
I'm going to prepare a place for you,
So together we will always be.
The sun, and the moon, and the stars
will bow down to thee."
The sound of your music is so good to me, Lord
I feel like dancing
I dance because I'm free
In the streets of Zion, I dance,
In that Rainbow Country,
That Promise Land.

For Ephraim and Benjamin

I see the Storm coming
Dark clouds rising
Angry seas
and tsunamis
consuming houses, trees, beaches, and sand
O, Ephraim, land of rich ports
and all Benjamin with thee
In the midst of the storms, Lord, remember mercy
Who has not sinned before thee?
Consider the little ones, and women with child,
the old man, whose strength is failing
And what strong man can stand against hunger and thirst?
O, Ephraim, how beautiful were
your green mountains covering your Island
your valleys were full of the fruits of the earth
all that had ships were made rich at your ports
but now only desolation, isolation, condemnation
and separation from your mainland.
Benjamin howls for the pain he feels,
for he knows it
whole countries gone in a moment
Yet, the people party and speak foolishness
singing about euphoria and ecstasy up in the clubs
 But, if it starts with you Israel, what shall happen
to the godless and the willfully blind, whom the god of this world
has captured?

Shalam,
Zarach

For Zion

Sister, don't let anybody
tell you you're less than
for you are
more than rubies, precious stones,
gold and silver,
more than fine clothes,
makeup and lipstick,
well set hair, and fresh new perms.
None can compare to you, my sister,
my dove.
Virtue is in your right hand
and power in your left
for you speak the word of God
into the hearts of your children
and your man,
so that they speak at the gates
of the city
And the people show much respect
because of their wisdom and good sense.
Your husband is proud and full of joy
when he thinks of you
And he doesn't need another.
Your children call you blessed.
Sister, look up and remember
whose daughter thou art-
You are a daughter of Zion,
A daughter of Jacob,
A daughter of New Jerusalem.
