Now comes the appointed time for the birthing. The rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms listen as the Maker pours forth speech to mark the moment.
Ode at the Birthing
I formed your inward parts;
I covered you in your earth womb.
Ah, creature fearfully and wonderfully made;
your frame, your substance were not hidden from me
though I made you in secret.
I curiously wrought you in the lowest parts of the earth.
I saw your substance, yet being unperfect, being unformed.
And in my book all your members were written,
all the days I fashioned for you,
when as yet there were none of them.1Psalm 139: 13-16 KJV/NKJV
From a day of small and despised beginnings,
a birth and nativity in the land of Canaan,
you came into being.
I awakened you under the apple tree.
There the earth brought you forth;
There the earth who bore you brought you forth.2Song of Solomon 8:5NKJV
I stirred you from the depths,
and on the day you were born
you were not washed in water to cleanse or supple you,
nor swaddled at all.
And when I came to where you were,
and saw you polluted and struggling in your own blood,
I said unto you when you were in your blood, Live;
yea, I said unto thee when you were in thy blood,
Live. 3Ezekial 16:4,6 KJV/NIV
And this has ever been my word to you,
spoken in the day and in the night: Live.
My life flows around and about you,
swirls its essence of vitality amidst your cells:
do you not perceive it?
I caused you to multiply as the bud of the field.
I birthed you forth to succor you as a nursing mother
as mine own child, engraved on the palms of my hands.4Isaiah 49:15 and 16
Heaven is my throne and the earth is my footstool;
has not my hand done all these things,
and so they came into being?5Isaiah 66:1-2NIV
Live! Yes!
