Unchain
WhiteHeart
Tears are falling on my storybook
Colors running I don’t want to look
There’s a cloud on my looking-glass
Full of questions I’m afraid to ask
Afraid to love such a chance to take
If I love and lose my fragile heart will break

Each day in life there’s no guarantee
For the story’s end you may never see
Unchain me from my poverty
Release my soul

Unchain my life
Let the doubt and the darkness fall from my eyes
Unchain my dreams
Let the heavens of love open-up in me
Unchain my life
Unchain

Drop the chains from my heart and hands
Don’t want to be just a half-way man
Got a world of love I feel deep inside
But then I go hit a wall of pride
For if you stop take a look at me
What you see isn’t what I want you to see

In the storybook there is no guarantee
Still a voice of love is callin’ you and me
Unchain me from this poverty
Release my soul

Unchain my life
Let the doubt and the darkness fall from my eyes
Unchain my dreams
Let the heavens of love open-up in me
Unchain my heart there’s no better time than now to start
Unchain my dreams
Unchain

Unchain my life
Let the doubt and the darkness fall from my eyes
Unchain my dreams
Let the heavens of love open-up in me
Unchain my life
Let the doubt and the darkness from my eyes
Unchain my dreams
Let the heavens of love open-up in me
Unchain

A Great Sorrow: More Clearly Defined

“You say, ‘I am innocent; he is not angry with me.’ But I will pass judgment on you because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’” {Jeremiah 2:35 NIV}

It was brought unto my attention that there is something to add unto “The Source Of My Great Sorrow”. For it is not about just being almost completely ignored: even though that is more than enough to be greatly sorrowful about. For who from amongst us can afford to assume that they have no need of what I have been given to say{1}???

No, this is not to discount the fact that it may very well be that what I have to say is really nothing more than the ranting and raving of just another self-anointed apostle of Christ{2}; but am I not worth saving{3}??? For if I am not: who is{4}???

In other words: no one can make a claim that what they have been given to say is of the Lord and not be in grave danger of eternal damnation if it is not{5}; and it is because of being made so painfully aware of just how much far too many do not care about others that is also at the root of my great sorrow. For there are many who would seek to put me in my place if I am allowed and enabled to actually get in their way; but who wants to come unto my rescue{6}???

No, this is not meant to encourage any wrong-doing. For the absolute truth of the matter truly is that none of us are expected to actually save anyone from anything—nor even to lead them unto the One who can deliver them from their troubles; but we are called to help{7}.

The Source Of My Great Sorrow

For with much wisdom comes much sorrow; the more knowledge, the more grief. {Ecclesiastes 1:18 NIV}

The source of my great sorrow is the exceedingly great hardness of far too many hearts{1}. For I have repeatedly made it as clear as possible that what I have been given to say is of our Heavenly Father{2}; and yet: no one has responded as they should{3}.

Oh yes, it may very well be that it is all just a figment of my own imagination; but is this not a clear indication of the absolute truth of the matter truly being that there is much that is very wrong in the Christian community{4}??? For who can honestly say that they truly are followers of Christ if they could not care less about my own Spiritual welfare{5}???

No, it is not that I am spoiling for a fight. For I would do well to heed: And the Lord's servant must not quarrel; instead, he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. Those who oppose him he must gently instruct, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth, and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.{6}

On the other hand: a certain amount of conflict is unavoidable when so much needs to change{7}. For it truly is as it is written: For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.{8}

Besides: it may not be your fault. For one of the things that I have been given to help make abundantly clear is that it all depends upon what our Heavenly Father wants to accomplish in and through someone that determines when and unto what extent He will allow and enable them to enter into the knowledge and understanding of His absolute truth{9}; but woe be it unto all who desire to use this as an excuse when they know better{10}.

Alas, I still have no carrot to offer, nor stick to wield; but it should not matter unto those who truly want to be pleasing in our Heavenly Father’s sight{11}. For the great sorrow that I bear is also of Him{12}.

Looking For A Miracle

For false Christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders so as to deceive {and} lead astray, if possible, even the elect (God's chosen ones). {Matthew 24:24 AMP}

Some will undoubtedly find it this rather ironic—especially after posting “A Demonic Diatribe” a few days ago. For here I am looking for a miracle in regards unto the deliverance of those who have become enslaved unto deliverance ministries; and they are the very ones who openly profess to be on the frontlines in the war against the devil and his demons.

Oh yes, irony abounds; but it is not meant in jest. For there is a war (of sorts) going-on between good and evil{1}; and it is over our hearts and minds{2}.

No, there is no need to repeat everything that I was given to say in “Spiritual Warfare” and “Judas Iscariot”; but there are some things that keep getting missed. For Satan and his horde of rogue angels are still just as much under the full and complete control of our Heavenly Father as they have always been{3}; and this will stay as such forever and ever{4}. AMEN!!!

Therein lies the key unto knowing who has and who has not been deceived. For all who believe that the devil and his demons are out there reeking havoc far and wide in this world as they please have been deceived{5}.

Yes, there is a multitude of Bible verses and personal experiences that can be called upon in support of both sides of the issue. For our Heavenly Father’s Holy Scriptures can be employed to support almost anything if taken out of context enough; and I have been made all too painfully aware of the absolute truth of the matter truly being that far too many want to believe that this is exactly what I am seeking to do in order to accomplish my own purposes.

Hence: looking for a miracle. For it is quite natural of us to want to believe that we are much more important than we really are; and this is something that the devil and his demons are allowed to exploit at times.

No, this is not to deny that we are important. In fact: even the least from amongst us is more important unto our Heavenly Father than any of us can even start to naturally comprehend{6}; but in regards unto Him needing soldiers in His war against the forces of darkness: be assured that this comes straight from the devil’s mouth unto the itching ears of those who want to believe it{7}.

Yes, there are other tactics in use. For spiritual pride is another thing that the devil and his demons are allowed to exploit; and there are far too many who want to believe that it is because of their own faithfulness that are of such good use unto our Heavenly Father{8}.

Alas, oh I how wish I had either a carrot or a stick to offer{9}.For a carrot carries with it the promise of personal satisfaction if things change for the better. Whereas: a stick carries with it the threat of personal harm if things remain as they are.

Woe be it unto me. For this is about wanting to truly be as righteous in the eyes of our Heavenly Father as He will allow and enable us to be; and if this is not enough of an incentive: woe be it indeed{10}.
