Often the Holy Spirit will just give me a little truth! And I’ll write it down! These can have great impact in their simplicity! This is why I share them!
TAKE A STAND
Draw Near
Do Not Fear
They Will Mock
They Will Jeer
But If You Stand and Do Not Flop
I’ll See To It
That They Will Stop

RIDING THE FENCE
To “ride the fence” in your Christian Walk,
Is to show no action with your Holy Talk,
Or to act well when with another Believer,
But when with ungodly folks you act as a Receiver…
You take in their habits, course talk, and loose living,
When it ought to be for the Lord you are living.
This type of lifestyle will bring nothing but Sorrow,
And Judgment shall follow in your tomorrow,
So, ask God’s Forgiveness,
Walk in His Way,
Break off with “the World”!
And Be HAPPY Today!

Let Not Fear Interfere
Let not fear interfere
When I whisper in your ear
And I tell you what to do
And I tell you what to say.
Let not fear interfere
When I whisper in your ear
And I tell you what to pray
And I tell you to obey.
Follow what you hear within your ear
For I will steer
You need not fear
For I will be clear.

I wrote this next prose in early a.m… meaning shortly after midnight… and was just putting down my own thoughts as I was sitting with the Holy Spirit in stillness. It was just me and God, with no intent to create anything…I was just “journaling”, which is my lifelong habit. Yet out came something creative, by the Spirit, that I now feel I am to share. I went back to give this a title, for it was just what I was in.
I’m in… Thought
I’m in
Stillness
Yet I know many are experiencing chaos.
I’m in
Peace
Yet I know many are experiencing anxiety and unrest.
I’m in
Joy
Yet I know many are sad, weary, afraid, and worried.
I’m in
Hope
Yet I know many have lost hope that their circumstances will or can change.
I’m in
Righteousness
Yet I know many have let themselves become ensnared by sin, lusts, and pride.
I’m in
Fellowship with God
Yet I know that many need His presence, his protection, and his provision.
I’m in
The Light
Yet I know that many are in darkness, groping around for something or someone to cling to.
I’m in
Thankfulness
Yet I know many are taking their blessings for granted, or are so focused on what they don’t have, or what they want, that your goodness to them isn’t acknowledged.
I’m in
Song
Yet I know many have lost their song, for oppression, or depression, or fear, or cares have taken that song from their heart.
I’m in
Wisdom
Yet I know many never inquire of God to receive the wisdom you have to give each person liberally who asks of you.
I’m in
Contentedness
Yet I know others don’t have the same realization that their boundaries have fallen in pleasant places; they desire more of this, or a different set of circumstances, always it’s “out there in the future” that they believe they’ll be contented.
I’m in
The Holy Spirit
Yet, I know that others need you God, within them, to bring about all these things I’m In.
I’m in
Awareness
It is all from you, God!
Don’t let your blessings leave even though others around me are not experiencing them.
Let me never feel badly about how you take care of me and others who know you.
Instead, I ask that others come to Christ and that the Holy Spirit will have his way in them too!
The Kingdom is where The Spirit Reigns!
The Kingdom is in the Hearts of Believers!
Please come into the Kingdom that I’m In!
The question is, “What are you in?”

As part of this chapter, I also want to give you an instrumental song I wrote, in the Spirit, called “Peace That Passes Understanding”. There is no music to it. While at the studio, I played the piano part by ear, in the Spirit, and then grabbed my flute in the same session in the studio, and played the flute part, in the spirit. I can never replicate it. It was a gift from the Holy Spirit for you the listeners. I’m explaining its origin, so you will receive it from Him… a Spirit-to-spirit communication, His Spirit to yours.
As you listen to it, may God take you to a sweet place in him. It is “soaking music” ….so just still yourself, lie down, if possible, close your eyes, and just think about the Lord. I don’t know what He will do in you, as you listen… but I do know the song will still your soul with its intricate interlocking melodies and bring you his peace. Maybe some of you will see something in the Spirit for yourself. Maybe God will whisper to you something He wants you to hear, as you listen. Receive from Me. And enjoy!
