He would
provide the inspiration for the future artists in these end-times,
and to emblazon buildings and canvass’s with a chiaroscuro spectrum
of Renaissance thought along the way of centuries’ Stephen
Bennett.
Art and artisans
can change the world, that possibility is seen all around us. Yet,
creativity is not just for the artist; creativity is at the very
heart and center of Christianity. In God’s eyes everything is art,
and all things created are for His purposes. The heavens and the
world are a canvass oiled and stretched - for us to walk on and
create in. Art as an awakening is now normal fare – His final
purposes for art are at hand. God has many artistic visions to give
to His artisans on earth.

It is dedicated to
every poetic artist dealing with their humanity: searching in their
quest, carving out love, walking in this world, living in the
family, believing in the wilderness, wallpapering the caves, staying
in God’s presence, and still desiring to change their world. Some
poems were written before Stephen became a Christian and reflect
early prophetic stirrings, searching, and a valid sense of rawness
that still relates to many people - the rest of the rhyme found its
expression over the years on Stephen’s much varied Christian
journey. The work is presented in ‘packages’ each with ‘bundles’ of
poems in various themes. You will find presence, power,
identification, and inspiration as you open the gift of these
bundles of transparent words from a prophetic heart.

We are in an
emerging apostolic reformation. The apostolic Church is rising up in
glorious power. In churches there will be powerful, governing,
apostolic, and prophetic singers, musicians, and artists. In recent
decades, Jesus has been quickening the restoration of the PROPER
ORDER of the Tabernacle of David. There are greater governing
sounds, and songs, coming from the Church: music that carries the
glory of God, rending opens the heavens, music that breaks
strongholds over churches, cities, and nations - this is THE
POWER OF APOSTOLIC MUSIC. Jesus is purifying and refining the
structure of His Church. Fear, control, and self-seeking must go. We
need to all live for JESUS in a holy upright life, ready to carry
apostolic power in our sounds. 'Sing to the Lord a NEW SONG and
His praise from the ends of the earth' (Isaiah 42:10). Cities
and nations, shall be called and gathered, to worship the
'desire of ALL nations' - JESUS CHRIST (Haggai 2:7). Many
people with powerful music ministries have been prepared, and are
called for a time such as this, yet they are still hidden - it may
even be you! It is your time to rise up now! You are apart of the
glorious end-time Church - are you ready? This book will open your
eyes to understand your call as a singer, musician, and artist, in
the apostolic reformation of today's Church. |
