2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold all things have become new.
What Reality Are We Walking In?
A poem by Derrick Rhayn Inspired by the Holy Spirit March 11, 2020 Today is a new day. Wake up! The powers that be tell us to stay inside Wash our hands Enjoy a day off On us, But we stand in opposition, Knowing there’s more to the story Than some silly flu bug whose kill rate is less Than 2.5% Rather we stand in awe At the sheer gullibility of humanity As fear descends To you I say this: Wake up! Enjoy the day A summer like breeze Like never before Like you actually appreciate life For the gift of God that it is Experience life anew Freshly sprouting leaves sing praises And flowers call Him by name Jesus He stands atop of the mountain Awaiting His Father’s direction Awaiting the command To set the captive free Which technically He’s already done Which technically you didn’t deserve None of us did, That’s just God’s love Found seeping in John 3:16 Found waiting at the door Inviting you deeper into who you were created to be, Loved and adored. Yes, I say to you this day Celebrate Awake and celebrate As the fall leaf falling gently to the ground causes the seed of sorrow to turn in your heart So thus the spring leaf brings forth new life. The invitation to go from death to life Beckons us all To celebrate I say celebrate For our Father is near And His glory guards our rear For when we see this day for what it is We see it for what it’s not: A day to recede. But rather a day to celebrate For God is nearing us Drawing us out of the darkness And gently calling us into the Light But now if you forget these things And draw yourself indeed back to the new reality TV show The search for the last roll That’s your choice And fear will rule you But those who have woke to the devil and his scheme We say no! We have not been given a spirit of fear But of power and love and a sound mind And this time we known we’re one Because it is written for us to stand strong in that day That we shall not fall Because we have victory. Awake and ascend And let your yes be yes And your no be no For in the valley of the shadow of darkness Is One who knows Who’s in control Who knows how and why and when You will stand up and sing “I celebrate today!”

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. |
