A Night to Testify

Last night a group of people gathered around a little stage where Johnny Cash used to sing in the tiny town of Bon Aqua, Tennessee. As we surrendered to Christ’s Headship and began to come to the mic and testify or sing as Jesus prompted us, Christ began to speak through and work in each person present. I wrote this poem about it this morning.

Testify time (Revelation 12:10-ll.)

Person after person
Came to the microphone
To open their heart and share,
But they were not alone.
You could clearly see Christ
Brightly shining in them.
You could even feel Him.
A holy hush filled the air,
Real love was everywhere,
And we were all aware
That the presence of Jesus
Surrounded us there.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
