THEY MISSED HIM

Our faith in Jesus our Lord should have no room for doubt for it has been proven and tested several times already throughout the ages the kind of God He really is. May we treasure in our hearts the real message that this poem brings and not miss Him.
They Missed Him!

They were looking for a lion,
He came as a Lamb, and they missed Him.

They were looking for a warrior,
He came as a Peacemaker, and they missed Him.

They were looking for a king,
He came as a Servant, and they missed Him.

They were looking for liberation from Rome,
He submitted to the Roman stake, and they missed Him.

They were looking for a fit to their mold,
He was the mould maker, and they missed Him.

What are you looking for? Lion? Warrior? King? Liberator?

They were looking for their temporal needs to be met,
He came to meet their eternal need, and they missed Him.

He came as a Lamb to be sacrificed for your sin
Will you miss Him?

He came to make peace between God and man.
Will you miss Him?

He came to model servant hood for all mankind.
Will you miss Him?

He came that we might have true liberty.
Will you miss Him?

He came to give you eternal life.
Will you miss Him?

When we submit to the Lamb, we will meet the Lion.
Join with the Peacemaker, and we will meet the Warrior.

Work with the Servant, and we will meet the King.
Walk with the Submitted, and we will meet the Liberator.

Concern ourselves with the eternal, and we will have the temporal.

If Jesus is not fitting into the mold you have, then come to the mould maker and get a new one.

Submit to His plan for your life and you will see the eternal need met first; then all the other things you have need of will be taken care of as well.-end-

Sometimes if things we have been praying for are taking a long, long time and it seems like nothing good is ever going to happen. We tend to falter in our faith and become enticed by the options that this world is offering us. It is our human tendency that lures us to this hopeless mentality of "Damn if you do or damn if you don't." deception and begin to entertain the attractive and lucrative offers being presented to us without much thought. We fail to realize the true, undisguised and plain reality that only God has the best offer there was, is and will be ever known to man. Amen. Hallelujah!

1 John 5:5-13
5 Beloved: Who indeed is the victor over the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? ...If we accept human testimony, the testimony of God is surely greater...
you have eternal life, you who believe in the name of the Son of God.

We’ve got to realize the most essential and important things in life that we sometimes lose sight of and tend to neglect. Let us not be dissuaded nor distracted by the allurement of this world and end up losing what really matters most. Amen. Hallelujah!


Psalm 147:12-13, 14-15, 19-20
R: Praise the Lord, Jerusalem.
...For he has strengthened the bars of your gates; he has blessed your children within you. (R) 14 He has granted peace in your borders; with the best of wheat he fills you. 15 He sends forth his command to the earth; swiftly runs his word!...

Jesus our God whom John had proclaimed to be mightier than him has the greatest testimony of all, which is of God the Father and God the Spirit. Amen. Hallelujah!

Mark 1:7-11
This is what John the Baptist proclaimed: “One mightier than I is coming after me. I am not worthy to stoop and loosen the thongs of his sandals...Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized in the Jordan by John. 10 On coming up out of the water he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon him. 11 And a voice came from the heavens, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”
