Immanuel Approach Memo

Continued from Ask Her Father

I am… flooding.

The fountains of my heart
Spark eruptions in the others
Of the army of Jesus
Who are linked by His arms

Together
The living water
Carries us through
The cities of our enemies

Bringing them with us
Whether they want to
Or not

Until
We reach a valley floor
And the water runs out

I look for Jesus.

He is soaked wet
Laughing
And jubilant

I get angry.

“How can you
Be so happy
When the wave
Has already crested
And there is so much
Left undone?”

Jesus smiles on me.

“Fear not
We are ahead of schedule
When you are born
Of water and of blood
There is a season
When the fluid carries you”

Jesus looks into the distance.

“But now is a season
To stand on your own two feet
And follow me
Because now…”

“We march!”

Reflection

I feel…

• Rushed
• Carried away
• Held
• Commanded

Scripture

“Judah and their brother-tribe Simeon advanced to the city of Zephath and wiped out the Canaanites living there. That’s why they now call the city Hormah. The men of Judah captured Gaza, Ashkelon, Ekron, and the territories surrounding each of these cities.
Yahweh’s presence and power were with the men of Judah and they were able to conquer the hill country, but because the people of the lowlands had war chariots, they failed to drive them out.
Because Caleb conquered the three giants, the sons of Anak, he was given the city of Hebron.”‭‭
