IT WAS A DAY LIKE ANY OTHER
WHEN THE MESSAGE CAME
EXPLODING LIKE SPARKS IN A FIRE
CHANGING MY LIFE FOREVER.
I WASN’T EVEN PRAYING
JUST QUIETLY DUSTING, REARRANGING
WHEN AN ANGEL APPEARED
HIS PRESENCE OVERWHELMING.
SAYING, THE LORD WAS WITH ME
I WAS HIGHLY FAVOURED
AND SINGLED OUT FOR GOD’S BLESSING.
MY HEART BEATING LIKE A FRENZIED HAMMER
MY THOUGHTS RACING, MY BODY REELING
GABRIEL’S WORDS WASHED THROUGH ME.
SAYING I WAS THE LORD’S DELIGHT
HAD BEEN SPECIALLY CHOSEN FOR A WONDERFUL GIFT.
THIS IS WHERE IT SPIRALLED INTO THE STRATOSPHERE,
HIS MESSAGE IMPRINTING VERY CLEAR
THAT I’D BE PREGNANT WITH A BABY BOY
WAS TO CALL HIS NAME JESUS.
THAT HE’D BE THE GREATEST, THE SON OF THE HIGHEST,
AND REIGN FOREVER AS ISRAEL’S KING
HIS KINGDOM HAVING NO LIMIT.
I WAS UNMARRIED, YOUNG, STILL A VIRGIN
THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION ON MY LIPS…. HOW?
THE ANSWER MELTING ALL RESISTANCE
THAT I WOULD EXPERIENCE THE ANOINTING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
KNOW ALMIGHTY GOD’S SHADOW OF POWER IN A GLORY CLOUD
SO THE CHILD BORN TO ME WOULD BE HOLY, THE SON OF GOD.
I WAS UNDONE, THE YES RESOUNDING LOUD
THROUGH EVERY FIBRE OF ME.
I’M GOD’S SERVANT, I REPLIED
MY HEART EMBRACING EVERY WORD
FROM THE ANGEL’S MOUTH.
