We have come to a generation
Where patience seems to be out of
stock
And men are desperate for immediate
actions
They are tired of hearing philosophical
stories
Of one Almighty God, who was, is
and is to come
That we claim to have all the power
and authority
Capable of bringing a solution to
their troubles
Things that cause them to grieve
day and night
So I’m asking you, the called, how
true is your calling
His word says where two or three
are gathered in my Name
There I’ll be in their midst to
show forth the Excellency of my name
Are your gathering no longer in His
great name?
That sinners no longer feel touched
in His presence
That the sick and bereaved don’t
get to have a taste of His healing
The broken-hearted still go back
with heavy heart
Despite the fact that His presence
is full of joy and liberty
What then is going on?
You say to them be healed! Receive
power! It is well with you!
They respond with loud Amen, as an
evidence of faith
Though might be little as a mustard
seed, but it’s all God need
But the change doesn’t come as
prophesied
So, don’t blame men when they ask
where your God is
If all you have to offer are stories
of what your God has done
Until you prove your calling and
election to be sure
With great diligence, in the excellency of His power and might
They’ll continue to regard you as a
noisemaker and nuisance
Then, for how long shall we continue to
question the alternatives?
When we have failed to show forth the
authenticity of what we carry
So, let your light so shine before
men that they might see your works
By bringing them to a place of encounter with a kingdom that is provable
And give glory to your God, as a
testament of His grace on your calling
Let your light shine, here and now! The world is waiting
2 Peter 1:10
