Interlude


Psalm 19:7     New English Translation

7 The law of the Lord is perfect and preserves one’s life.

The rules set down by the Lord are reliable and impart wisdom to the inexperienced.

 

Interlude

 

We can only impart the things we understand ourselves.

If we miss-understand the issue; we can only impart that much.

God’s truth gets misconstrued by false prophet's insincerity.

To  incompleteness of blinded as they give their heart to such

 

Counterfeit has a close resemblance to what has been proven real.

Unawareness of what is fake makes one tread on forbidden ground.

Conception in the heart towards what seems close to what has appeal

Lays a foundation of deception which through generations can be found

 

Pilate questioned it well when asked: What is the truth?

We live in a world now that everybody thinks they know it.

This is a great deception and leads almost everyone aloof.

For all seem to feed themselves on things that only God can show.

 

When redeemed, we realize that we don’t know much at all.

Why do we stop learning when we’re planted and can’t get off base?

Co-death with Christ is overlooked, for death seems to erase its call.

The moment we embrace our Lord, when behold His loving Face.

 

Consecration of the Holy Spirit and the peace movement of Him

Should imprint on us drastically that it makes no sense of standing still

We need to be marked and ensured through the imprint of the Cross.

For our resurrection depends on this, for in Christ we leave that hill.
