Worthy

Bravo! Bravo to the One who comes from the unknown and unseen place to rattle the landscape and roust the pretenders!

This One, and this One alone, is worthy of devotion.

The Majestic One thunders into the silence of tyranny. At the sound of this Voice, all creation shudders in remembrance of forgotten promises.

This One, and this One alone, is worthy of ovation.

The flames of Pentecostal power scorch those of arrogant aspiration. They cleanse and clarify the speech of all willing to stand in the breach of earth’s travail. By them, we are born again.

This One, and this One alone, is worthy of acclamation.

The seed of this Lover has not been annulled; the womb of this Beloved has not been aborted.

This One, and this One alone, is worthy of exaltation.

The children of God testify together: These fires from above are not to be feared; these turbulent winds pose no threat. For by them the Merciful One upholds all who are bound by the bonds of justice and the chords of mercy.

This One, this Gracious but Untamed One, is alone worthy of obligation.
