In the beginning, God created me.
I am the ultimate Significant-Other
The Keeper and Custodian
From Whom I came from.
I, Truth, witness to the Almighty King.
I stand, seal and fortify
Every word,
every breath spoken
Under the very aegis of Heaven’s blueprint
That God designed
The world you, humans,
inhabit
procreate
protect
defend
Preserve my absolute identity.
To borrow my Creator’s own words--
The Bulwark of all created
In Heaven and earth.
So, I, Truth, speak only
the truth
from the recesses of my heart,
the essence of God.
I have founded the heavens and the earth.
I reiterate myself: The Truth!
To safeguard any misunderstanding.
Just so you know.
If you, Truth-bearers,
are in question
Confronted
Demonized
Maligned,
Seek Me, your fortress,
and you will find Me.
I'm your defender.
To avenge you,
requite you in full
for adhering to me,
Your tower of strength
The rewarder of your faith.
And align your words to mine.
I am aware, to my disgust,
what and where
this world has come to.
Humans—fools--have tried to
claim me,
gaslight me,
defy me,
smoothen me with platitudes
embellish me with clichés
fabricate me with rubbish aphorisms
sleazy, empty words of wisdom.
You know the works.
Their trait
their small-talk
their ignorance.
Listen carefully.
Hear Me
closer to your heart,
mind,
soul,
your whole being.
I’m aware of these evil.
So, I strengthen you.
You, who sees and hears me--
My still, small voice
(to borrow my friend, Elijah’s words)
Is the power and advocate
For you when this world of fools
threaten you,
burn you,
persecute you
and try to kill you.
I, Truth, was instructed and sealed:
To forbid deception
to guard you-- who loves my King--
from stealing the minds of
these creatures-- humans--
whom you speak to
and echo me.
To help safeguard your judgment.
And fortify your hearts into
a mindful heart
of discernment.
You and I,
as we work together in unity,
armoured with reason
and rationality
attuned to seek,
explore and discover
every root of human heart
and thoughts--
unto faith, hope,
Redeemer's love
and salvation.
Stand close to Me
Walk with Me.
As we hold up,
deter,
shield you from every lofty
words of smoothness.
Test to scrutiny
and verification.
Upon my Word,
We are good!
So, I, Truth,
am only one and absolutely
Good.
My Master formed me
To keep pure
That every single word
is fortified against trickery
and deception.
I’m an armament,
A two-edged sword
To an honest,
guarded lips,
upright spirit,
pure from all vexation
and mischief.
For there is nothing correct in their mouths… their tongues are smooth.
“May God cut off all lips of smooth talk, the tongue which speaks boastfully.
Humans try to attain me,
Mangle me into pieces
That suit their defiled agenda
to blemish you, my loyal
trustworthy friend.
Humiliate themselves in human courts,
move mountains,
try to turn the world upside-down.
Their faux pas’
puny retort
betray them to contempt
collaborate with their own nemesis to
so abhorrent,
abominable acts of waste of words
into condemnation.
My Master, trustworthy King
is the Signature of His revelation
in Scripture.
I, Truth, have found dwelling
in the little things.
Such as in innocent little child.
In the little birds nesting,
learning to test their wings into flight.
Out of His mouth
burns your lamp,
lights your path.
Compass you
surround you
Protect you
Save you
from the desperate grip of adversity.
My Words hurt.
In my defense, sharper.
Penetrating through
the heart and marrow,
the buckler for your soul.
The stronghold
The fortress
forever--
in every particle of the universe
that reflects Him,
The Messiah
with Good News
Of salvation.
Psalm 5:10; Psalm 12:4 Isaiah 50:11
