Have you become the poem?
I'm preparing for a corporate luncheon today. The prophetic flow is so heavy on me right now I cannot even contain myself. So I am coming back to the computer briefly to post this message. My brothers and sisters in Christ sat around the fireplace on Tuesday night with our spiritual father, and talked about the Lord ...
My spirit has been on fire ever since.
You know, there are so many INSTRUCTORS in the world today. This isn't a bad thing, but when I look around and see all the people who connect with me who are hurting and in need of healing, I say to myself -- where are the instructors who are willing to "father." I don't mean become a father -- but who are willing to walk with someone until they reach a place where they are strong in the Lord and can stand on their own.
I don't just give people poetry or stand before an open mic and shout at them. I "minister" to them from the love of God in my heart, and then make myself available to be "who they need in Christ" at that particular time. The scriptures say that we should become all things to all men. If they are hungry, give 'em a sandwich. If they are cold, give them your jacket. If they are sick, administer healing .....all in the name of Jesus. Sometimes, I meet people and I'm not quite sure what to do. I'm not ashamed of that. I simply say, "Would you like to meet my pastor, or my spiritual father. I know a service that I can refer you to ..."
But I don't leave them hanging. Can you recall an instance when your poem or writing became more than just "words" heard by someone. Have you moved from poet, to minister to brother/sister? Sadly, some people will remain "performers" forever. They will never tap into the yoke destroying, healing power of ministry in their gifts and calling.
WHY? They are still focused on themselves. When are we going to release instruction ....and begin to love through instruction? When are your creative writings going to come alive in YOUR OWN life -- and you become what our Father in Heaven writes through you?
There's a lot of writing ... but not enough living it. Scribes must be their writing! You see, some of you are ANGER ... so when you write .... we see it. Some are balls of HURT and disappoinment. We see it when you write. Some are EXTREMELY rejected and dejected. We see it when you write ...
But there are MANY who are PRESSING AND PUSHING in the things of God. We see it when you write. Some are SOLD OUT and HOLY SPIRIT INSPIRED ... and enjoying the life they have in Christ. WE SEE IT when you write ....
Lord ... Lord ... Lord, God is trying to use some of us so PROFOUNDLY .... but we are focused on SELF. Let go of you. Let your life reflect His will for you ....
Live your life for the sake of others as He commanded, and watch the rain ... the reign ... the reins come down. Care for someone besides yourself ....
Become .... your BROTHER'S keeper. I said brother.... not step-nieces and tenth-cousins who don't want Jesus...
Have you become the poem, the song, the novel, the instructional guide, the spoken word .... that he has delivered from your belly ....?
