As fire causes wood to burn and water to boil, your coming would make the nations tremble. Then your enemies would learn the reason for your fame. -Isaiah 64:2(NLT)
ALL TREMBLE WHEN HE COMES
A poem and essay by ILMA
The Lord is coming back again
All believers he will definitely claim
His power causes all things to tremble
He is the only one who makes all quiver.
As fire causes water to boil and wood to burn
All Christians are promised that he’ll be back again
The enemy will learn the reason for his fame
He will be defeated because Jesus always reigns.

Have you ever observed how wood burns and water boils? When I was nine years old, our apartment got threatened by a big fire in the nearby market. I watched on our window how the fire progressed and heard all the ticking noises as the wood parts of the market burned. I also smelled the smoke as I witnessed that very huge market burned down to ashes. To this very day, smoke smells still triggers me as I recall my mother who was eight months pregnant carry a ten cubic feet refrigerator by herself to save it from the possible fire that would have hit us. I praise God it didn’t. The traumas of such experience will always be there. When Jesus comes again, all will tremble and the enemy will bow down.
