SPIRIT KINDLED
Prologue:
My LORD said to my Lord, come sit by my side,
Until all of MY people have My Spirit inside,
The Devil told them I wouldn’t do it, but of course he lied,
Come sit in my PRESENCE, in rest we shall abide.
Stage One:
They sat all together at a nice place to conceive,
They prayed and they tarried, it was so easy to believe,
He had not stayed dead, his body he did retrieve,
Who was to doubt the Father’s promise they’d receive.
The wind rushed wild and roared through the place,
The fire descended and lit up each face;
Like Moses down from the Mountain, God’s special place,
holding the written Word (in his hands) and Power on his face.
Stage Two:
He sat in the corner awaiting God’s sign of the time,
He knew it could come at most any unknown time,
But the angel did startle him from his prayers sublime,
When came then the knock on the door with no chime.
The apostle led there seemed uncertain, that was for sure,
But he had learned to follow the Lord, yes, that was for sure,
Yet the vision of the sheet was quite troubling for sure,
But he knew God was here to do something indeed – for sure!
Stage Three:
The murderous man with the with legions to command,
Gathered up God’s family to kill them as planned,
It was ridiculous to think they would claim God had this planned
To place of HIMSELF into these foolish people – on demand?!
The light shown brightly, the voice clear to hear,
But none of the soldiers could respond due to fear,
And then came the blindness and the waiting and fear,
Until he became inhabited by HIM WHO IS NEAR.
Epilogue:
The Lord said to My LORD, come see what is done,
They glow and they grow and they are becoming as one,
Your Spirit is manifest; it shines forth as the Sun,
This is most excellent! Act One is done!
