Voice at Horeb
***********************************************************
POEM OF THE MONTH
The Voice at Horeb
I call you to the mountain
You and you alone
Remove your shoes embrace my grace
Draw closer to my throne
Leave behind your troubles
It’s time to rest in me
Leave behind the accolades
Abandon them for peace
A fire burns upon the mountain
As a mighty God awaits
To bend His holy ear to earth
And hear your humble praise
Upon the summit high
The air is clear and thin
Your pace must slow and the focus change
As earth’s hopes and sights grow dim
Climb a little higher
‘Till you feel my warm embrace
Let the Sonlight warm your soul
And shine upon your face
I am God of the mountain and God below
Trust me with your highs and lows
You are called to higher places
These require deeper graces
Stay with me leave the world behind
Rest in my grace to gain peace of mind.
You aren’t being punished, you are starting to see
What’s too big for you is easy for Me
This is just the beginning of my plan for your life
Come to the mountain leave the past behind
A brand new place awaits your arrival
But the voice on the mountain is key to survival

SCRIPTURE
John 15:7
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask
whatever you wish, and it will be given you. (NIV)

MESSAGE
To take the message to the streets, we need to have a clear
understanding of the message we must deliver. Our most
effective delivery is intertwined within our daily lives.
Moses'face shined with the glory of God after he was in His
presence but after a little while the glow started to fade.
We need to climb our own mountain, the place where we
spend time with our Creator, we listen to Him and let His
presence change us. When we come away we are perfumed with
His grace and glory, but it only lasts a short time because
we live in a world of sin that stains and dulls the glory
of our amazing God. We must climb that mountain again so
we can decend and show the world how awesome and beautiful
our God can be.It's when we are glowing with His presence
and His words are echoing in our hearts that we are ready
to pray prayers that will be answered.
