Empty Hands

Can Glory be cupped in palm or dispensed from empty cup? What does God’s Presence resemble in a walk declared in following His Light? What gun or sword held in hand welcomes captured, failed or hypnotic? How may a man grasp the waiting Hand of God in Furnace Fire when armed with worldly weapon? No we have mistaken the warrior, Knight and soldier for the True Power in the Universe, the indwelling of Sovereign Grace and Love.

How are God’s rogue enemies defeated? Is it by the hand of disobedient King or Lowly servant? What powers have we as mortal against the reckless abandon of those Fallen From Him? To say None, immediately demands in question, how then shall we fight or indeed if were ever meant to pursue our own understanding in Resistance. For the only power we shall ever mount against these Dominions and Authorities will be that of His Holy Spirit existing, Living, Directing our Hearts, Minds and Spirit.

To launch campaigns against Dominion is to be enslaved in misdirection, misunderstanding and Deception, the Wiles and source of enemy stronghold. This is not a battle to which men employ human thinking, power or the anguish and ardor of warring and battle. This is enlightened Strength not of self-actualization or channeling, but subjugation to God’s Mighty Hand Upon Each of US. We are cups of His Will, Grace and simply witness to His Wrath. Standing as representatives of His Judgment in WORD of Declaration and Permanence. It is not the I that stands in resistance to powers beyond my definition and contention. But HE who has already stripped them of rank and authority, awaiting His arrival and subsequent Reign until the Day of Judgment.

We are the Few who have given way of Self, replaced by guidance, love, teaching, counsel and Faith of Something Beyond Self or Fallen Wisdom and arrogance. Am I King, No I AM servant, having set aside my own pursuit, ambition and desire for power, glory and honor. Only to receive all these things in more through service to the King who holds the Keys to them ALL. He IS and because of that knowledge, Hope and Peace I AM resisting all beyond my station through the simple acknowledgement and Humility of aligning myself With HIM.

So I go with empty Hand that my left may Hold the Hand of Christ through ever fire I encounter and My Left to offer those who have stumbled, fallen or forgotten. For this war has been won upon a tree at Calvary. Not for me to fight to stand in recognition of His Victory. At peace with my destination in apprehensive Hope and Understanding of my Place at the Foot of Glory’s Throne. I cannot be defeated for my hands are empty to employ the tools which God has lent me to plow, sow, water and reap all that He would grow. This is no battle but a preparation for harvest. The Joyous Time of God’s Provision through which my hands will be filled with Bounty and Love to share with those who have not or bring to Worship in Praise for His Promised Provision.
