Near to the Heart of God

Seq. by D. Tomlin


I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. Revelation 6:2

The flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself: Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself. And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the Lord. Amos 2:14-16
And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. Revelation 6:4

Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Romans 13:9
And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. Revelation 6:5

No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Luke 16:13
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. Revelation 6:8

Concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale. Isaiah 29:22
And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held. Revelation 6:9

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. John 3:5 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. Galatians 4:29

The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear? Proverbs 18:14 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Romans 8:36 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. Romans 8:34

How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! Luke 18:24 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein. Luke 18:17
I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. Ecclesiastics 3:18

Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto the Lord of all that he hath, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto the Lord. Leviticus 27:28
I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Malachi 3:6

For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Revelation 16:14

~ The Voice of the Blood ~

Why this blood upon the ground?
What has happened here?
Why the flurry, lanterns, torches;
Men who run away in fear?

This garden is a place of comfort;
Made for the happy, prayerful, soul.
There should be no acts of violence,
Only hours that makes us whole.

This blood tells of unjust anger;
Rough men picking up a sword.
Do they come, like this, for Jesus;
Who would have followed at a word?

He always went to church with them.
Everything He taught was plain.
If they asked Him, He would teach them
Simple truths of God, again.

Then, why this blood? Why this hour?
Why the soldier's solemn face?
Voice of His Blood calls for mercy,
For the entire human race!

God will hear it, one more time.
Blood will speak out loud to Him.
God will pour it o’er the altar;
Cure the world of awful sin!

The voice of your brother’s blood
is crying to Me from the ground.


Genesis 4:10

Judge not according to the appearance,
but judge righteous judgment.

Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour;
execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates.

And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord,
choose you this day whom ye will serve;
whether the gods which your fathers served
that were on the other side of the flood, or the
gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell.
