Cloak Of Jesus

The Word was Alpha 

The Word was with God 

The Word was God 

Through Him all became 

Without Him nothing became 

In Him was Life, the Light of men 

His Light shines in the darkness 

Darkness cannot overcome His Light 

The Word Became Flesh 

Abandoned 

God gave me plants from the earth 

God showed me the Breathe of Life 

Whipped 

You tapped my shoulder 

You stilled my tears with wonder 

Betrayed 

You covered me with Your Cloak 

You thought me rest not sleep 

Desolated 

I try to put on the Armor of God 

Unfathomable without the Cloak of Jesus 

My first, to this day I rule with conceit 

I do not abide to the voice of The Lord 

I am guilty, ashamed, and weak! 

I abandoned your way 

I whipped you with my strife 

I betrayed your gifts 

God numbers my evil ways 

God has measured me wanting 

God has divided my belongings

I am desolate without Thou 

Let this rebel child return to Thy Cloak 

Here I am to anew through Omega 

I renewed my contemplations on "the Armor of God” … Belt of Truth, Breastplate of Righteousness,  Helmet of Salvation,  Shield of Faith, and Sword of Spirit … It dawned upon my mind: "The Armor of God is unfathomable without the Cloak of Jesus!"  

The first day the phrase "Cloak of Jesus" came into my thoughts, I opened the Bible to Deuteronomy 26:2-27:1 The scripture teaches what is accountable within the Armor of God. We should not forget to give the first fruits to God! Rejoice in every good thing given and the strangers among you. Tithes to the stranger, fatherless, and widow.  Don't eat in the morning and harken to the voice of God. This day walk in God's ways as Moses declares unto the people to keep all the commandments. 

Having forgotten I had a previous reading, after completing the verses above in my attempt to convey the Cloak of Jesus; I opened the Bible to Jeremiah 3:13-5:1.  It begins: "Only admit your guilt" you rebelled against God.  We run around and will not listen to the will of God.  "Return rebellious Children!" God gave "The Ark of the Covenant" and it will be forgotten.  "All Nations" will come to Jerusalem "The Lord's throne" and "no longer stubbornly follow their wicked heart".
