Job 36:2-3 

2 “Be patient with me a little longer
and I will instruct you,
for I still have words to speak on God’s behalf.
3 With my knowledge I will speak comprehensively,
and to my Creator I will ascribe righteousness.

 

Knowledge

 

Where does it originate ... what is its real substance

forming things together … to address a mighty God?

Like building Babel again … but now we use computers

in thought to reach Heaven … to bring down the Mighty God.

 

A valley of dead bones … we use to start a mighty structure.

In the progress that we make … we’ll serve a god of comfort.

Not realizing that without the Lord … not even a breath is taken

as we mingle and twist together … in a ball of slime of sorts.

 

Real knowledge comes from God ... it is disguised as wisdom

to understand and live right … without chasing self-desire.

Admiration of man in temporal … only lasts a moment

then when the “end” comes ... who will pull you from the mire?

 

If there is any righteousness … that dwells within me

it must be from the Lord … cause of depravity in my soul.

There is no deliverance … outside of Christ, my Savior

that is true reality … as stretched out in the whole.

 

How much do I appreciate … what Jesus has done for me?

How much do I realize … what He delivered me from?

How much, how much I wonder … of me is just alive

and outside of just existing … in this death syndrome?

 

It is easily said and done … “I owe all things to Him”

as we spew out iniquity … in the lifestyle that we live.

Is it any wonder… that the world despises us

as we stand up for nothing ... and still are proud of it.
