"Shepherd's Silent Call"

The Gospel whole, not part, is heaven's plan;
To ban the bond of marriage is to stray.
Divided truth shall wither and decay.
Yet firm and full, it strengthens every man.

The Spirit speaks, and we must hear to know;
No voice unclean can pierce the veil above.
But those who kneel in faith and act in love
Shall feel the flame within their spirits grow.

From quiet skies descend the cleansing rain,
And seeds of faith are planted deep and sure.
Though shadows stretch and whisper to obscure,
The light shall rise and overcome the stain.

Kneel now and seek the Shepherd's guiding voice.
Truth frees the soul, and makes the heart rejoice.

"Gospel Whole and Nothing But"

The Gospel received whole is good.
Partial means that you never could.
God's plan says marriage is a must.
Forbidding it really's not just.

How to know it comes from above.
By Spirit of Truth gave thereof.
Expect to find righteous response
Unclean praying won't get what it wants.

That which is not ordained of God.

Defeated by joining his squad.
Prepared as much to know I Am.
Hear and see him is not a scam. 

Follow Horizon Street to Find Yours Today

 "Follow Horizon Street"

Heaven’s hand is unleashed, now opened wide.

Shows as fountains that flow without restraint.

Unseen whispers that warmly acquaint.

Now place feet firm on light's path as your guide.

Now be aware for some light will not shine.

There are some will show as much like a fog.

Gifts are given to lift hands from a bog.

Not to raise crowns, but hands in need align.

Skies are open and sunlight powers down.

Wind at your back and whispers guiding feet.

Following mountains comes horizon street.

After storms the stars are still outside town.

Go forward now, with purpose in your stride,

The light you follow will not turn aside.

"Find Yours Today"

To know the truth, and speak it with pure grace,
He grants the light to minds both meek and wise,
The healing hand, the faithful heart that tries,
Receive His power in the darkest place.

Miraculous the acts His will makes real,
The voice that speaks His word with piercing flame,
The eye that sees the false behind the name,
Discerns the wound no other heart could feel.

Some speak in tongues, and others hear them true,
To edify, not raise their praise or fame;
Some teach the wise to walk a path anew,
While others hold belief a steady flame.

Though gifts are many, one is still the source,
The Spirit moves us all in heaven’s course.

At My Second Coming

"Now Before I Come"

I know you've heard of wars in distant lands, 

And now they knock and rattle at your door;
Your melting hope slips trembling to the floor, 
Your heart, faint-struck, can scarcely bear demands. 

You’ve seen the signs; you wonder if it’s vain
To toil and weep and wait for what is right. 
But do not sit contented in the night;
Break forth, arise, and shatter sorrow’s chain.

I see the work: My gospel’s voice made known,
The faithful laboring while others fall; 
The day shall come with tears from great and small,
And you, My child, shall reap what you have sown. 

Once sounds the trumpet calling forth the dead,
Justice shall roar and Mercy lift her head. 

"For I Shall Come"

Just like the lightning, all shall see and hear,
My return shall shake both earth and sky.
The pride of men shall falter, low they lie,
And kingdoms great shall tremble in their fear.

With mighty force, those kings shall be brought low,
Yet those who humble hearts shall rise in grace.
The mountains break, and valleys find their place,
While paths of peace in splendor softly grow.

From nations' night, the righteous rise like dawn,
Their voices loosed, no longer bound in pride.
All tongues will sing my name, none can deny.
For where I tread, pure rivers shall flow on.

No grave shall bind you; death shall taste no more
With me, my children rise, and live, restored.

 "Can You Be True"

Do not weigh cost, just act in what is right,
Remain sincere, consistent, and endure.
The covenants you make are strong and pure,
Not fleeting things you whisper in the night.

Christ is the law, His image shining bright,
Proclaim His gospel with a witness sure.
Receive His word, let Spirit's flame secure
The ancient Ten, still binding in His light.

Love spouse and God with all your heart and mind,
With strength and tenderness, let love increase.
Such love directs your path, refined, aligned,
A holy bond, a covenant of peace.

A prophet leads with truth sent from on high,
The Spirit proves if it be truth or lie.

The Binding

Don't count the cost, just go and do.
Consistent in your work, be true.
His covenants and truths are not
Treated lightly nor speak of naught.

Christ is the law and reflects him.
Teach His gospel with every limb.
Received with Spirit and holdfast.
The Ten are key now as in past.

No matter if it's God or spouse.
Love both with all your heart, no doubts.
With strength, honor and affection.
Leads both in a good direction.

We bind ourselves in holiness.
To be true in all righteousness.
A true prophet called from on high.
The spirit tells if he's a spy.
