The body of Christ is in great need of discernment in this hour…
Now when the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the children of the captivity builded the temple unto the Lord God of Israel;
2 Then they came to Zerubbabel, and to the chief of the fathers, and said unto them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as ye do; and we do sacrifice unto him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assur, which brought us up hither.
3 But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the Lord God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.
Then the people of the land weakened the hands of the people of Judah, and troubled them in building,
5 And hired counsellors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia.
The Smoke Screen
There’s a thick dense fog that covers minds
Seeing not the truth in sight
Hearing that which only they
Want to hear and want to say.
A veil it covers with darkened haze
The light of truth these coming days
For much is false and rooted deep
For we are now fast asleep.
We reckon not with Satan’s lair
For fear has caused us to only stare
Giving way with pride and toil
That which Christ gave us as spoils.
Up ahead there is a fight
A wrestling strong with darkened nights
If steeped we are in sin and stain
Likely we will not remain.
Does thou know now Heaven’s scent?
Or must we be so captured with
Unruly things hid in thy tent
As If our Father will not sift.
The smoke is but a screen you see
Set to cause a false serene
For right behind its sullen veil
Is Satan’s plot and door to Hell.
