From Jordan, past Mount Paran, to Gilead

Contributed by Lilly-Quill on Tuesday, 11th July 2006 @ 06:56:26 PM in AEST
Topic: spiritual




Go up from chilly Death’s Jordan, past the biblical Mount Paran
Those who’ve covenanted, by Sacrifice, for the Promised Land
Terry not in that old muddy Jordan; flee from Death’s dark veil
God’s people are privileged, to victory’s stand, His foes to assail

With a circumcised heart, slowly we ascend that muddy stream
Our eyes fixed on the Door-Way, and the Prize/Mark, his theme
Days of purging end; we're redeemed by the mighty King-Lamb
As the Law of her does bears the Man-child, who rules for I-AM

Out of Zion goes-forth God's Law; this Man-child’s coming of age
Scenes of the day of the Lord, recompense now sets His stage
Christ in us, manifested Son, of his dynamous power to come
Sold-out ones, humbled in power, divinely yield to the Holy One

Abraham’s blessing be upon you, for Paran is now Mecca today
South of Sinai of Egypt, then; God still delivers- come what may
Now at His abode, feeding on Carmel, and satiated on Mt. Gilead
For Benjamin’s tribe will take possession over rulership gone bad

Excellent poem. I must read more.
PS. Read my poem, " The Consolation of Israel", or, " With Good Purpose.
God bless.
