Be It So!



A wind blows

where it wants to go.

Gentle or strong,

you do not know
when or where
it will of itself show.

Its' direction
changes;

its' flow rearranges
like trends of men

tried
yesterday
or long ago.

Yet, there is One
who many do not acknowledge;

on whom
honor
does not bestow.

Although, He created children
and plants in maturity to grow.

Sun, moon, and stars in our skies
to constantly glow.

Still, they give His Glory
to any and all
except

He and His Son--

A Righteous King
riding. His anger aglow
against enemies of his Father
The Almighty

Who says:
“For I am Jehovah; I do not change." Mal. 3:6.

For, "Every good gift
and every perfect present
is from above,

coming down from the Father of the celestial lights,

who does not vary
or change

like the shifting shadows." James 1:17.

His standards of righteousness
in the coming New Earth

after a complete elimination
of wickedness and stubborn foes

will permeate modest hearts
who allowed his guidance
to increase their inner peace

like lambs on a mountainside
with green grass on which to nibble.

Their daily hunger fed.

On sweet principles
eternally to chew
as grown hay for nourishment
after farmers do ardently mow.

Yes..."In his days the righteous will flourish,
And peace will abound until the moon is no more.

He will have subjects from sea to sea
And from the River to the ends of the earth.

The desert dwellers will bow down before him,
And his enemies will lick the dust."

"For he will rescue the poor who cry for help,
Also the lowly one and whoever has no helper.

He will have pity on the lowly and the poor,
And the lives of the poor he will save.
From oppression and from violence he will rescue them,

And their blood will be precious in his eyes."

On this, we can trust.

"There will be an abundance of grain on the earth;
On the top of the mountains it will overflow.

His fruit will flourish as in Lebʹa·non,

And in the cities people will blossom like the vegetation of the earth."

"May his name endure forever,
And may it prosper as long as the sun.

May people obtain a blessing for themselves by means of him;

May all nations pronounce him happy." Ps. 72.

Because,
"This means everlasting life,

their coming to know you,
the only true God,
and the one whom you sent,
Jesus Christ." John 17:3.

But to those who "love the front seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces!"...

It means... Woe!

Apropos,

"Honor the son,

or God will become indignant
and you will perish from the way,

For His anger flares up quickly.

Happy
are all those

Taking Refuge In Him." Psalm 2:12.

For prophesied:

‘I will certainly sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the nations, which you profaned among them; and the nations will have to know that I am Jehovah,’ declares the Sovereign Lord Jehovah, ‘when I am sanctified among you before their eyes." Ezekiel 36:23.

BE IT SO!
