“SHAKEN…NOT STIRRED”
by Anthony J. Massotti, Th.M.
God is mixing a drink for His creatures to consume;
it will be shaken, not stirred.
The end of times is coming very near,
some shall be shaken and most not stirred.
The power of God will continue falling everywhere,
many shall be shakened yet not be stirred.
The Earth’s foundation shall be moved;
shaken, not stirred.
The Heaven’s shall scatter their light;
fully shaken, yet again, not just a little stirred.
Men’s hearts shall fail them for fear;
because they are shaken and would not be stirred.
The foundations of the deep shall open,
strongly shaken not just stirred.
The mountains and the valleys will dance;
all the houses shaken, not mildly stirred.
The light shall yield to darkness
as the sun is shaken, no longer with gasses stirred.
The world’s laughter shall be turned to mourning,
the souls so shaken, not any longer by laughter are they stirred.
The drunken and the drugged shall stay unhealed;
shaken, very shaken, no longer able to be stirred.
The evil that was hidden shall come forth
by evil shaken, not by goodness stirred.
The liars lies shall be on trial;
the angers shaken, the mercy not stirred.
The angels will come with swords and bowls,
the demons will be fully shaken not just stirred.
Religion, Science, and Politics will fail man;
all their idealogies truly shaken, not just emotionally stirred.
Great armies shall march across the vast lands,
the very earth shaken, not lightly stirred.
The battles shall be the most bloody one last time,
the very nations shaken not just negotiations stirred.
Voices will cry out with wailing, with pain;
the bodies racked and shaken, the spirits not even stirred.
Repentence will be found wanting, found lacking;
in hearts deeply shaken, but in deeds not even barely stirred.
Idols shall fall and be broken, their offerings ignored;
when the True God does the ‘shaken’, and the false gods can not be stirred.
The God who seemed silent shall arise,
for He was by prayer shaken, not because he was by words stirred.
The Bridegroom and the Bride shall no longer be hid;
their voices with violence shaken, upon the hearts not yet stirred.
The wise sleeping virgins shall awaken,
for they were shaken, not merely only stirred.
Their lamps shall be kindled, ready and lit;
the wicks shaken, the oil not spilled or diluted when stirred.
The fervent prayers of the righteous will be resounding,
When they shall see “the shaken” who refused to not be stirred.
The remnant shall be born in those days,
zeal ignited where the inner man is shaken, and the outer man is not stirred.
The day of redemption shall be extended;
that a new kingdom might be awakened; and the cries of many finally heard!
