Reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He spoke\u2014and stars ignited.<\/p>\n

He breathed\u2014and man awoke.<\/p>\n

He stretched out His hand\u2014and seas parted,<\/p>\n

storms stilled,<\/p>\n

blind eyes opened,<\/p>\n

the dead walked out of tombs.<\/p>\n

Reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He walked on water like it was dust.<\/p>\n

He fed thousands with a boy\u2019s lunch.<\/p>\n

He touched lepers and they were clean.<\/p>\n

He spoke truth and demons fled.<\/p>\n

He wept at graves,<\/p>\n

then shattered death with a word.<\/p>\n

Reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He is the First and the Last,<\/p>\n

the Lion and the Lamb,<\/p>\n

the Judge and the Justifier,<\/p>\n

the Servant King.<\/p>\n

Holy in perfection,<\/p>\n

gentle in mercy,<\/p>\n

righteous in wrath,<\/p>\n

faithful in love.<\/p>\n

Reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He is the Rock beneath my feet,<\/p>\n

the Fortress around my soul,<\/p>\n

the Light that guides my path,<\/p>\n

the Fire that warms my heart.<\/p>\n

He is strength when I am weak,<\/p>\n

peace when I am afraid,<\/p>\n

grace when I have failed.<\/p>\n

Reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He found me in the pit\u2014<\/p>\n

and didn\u2019t leave me there.<\/p>\n

He bore my shame,<\/p>\n

carried my cross,<\/p>\n

bled for my healing,<\/p>\n

died for my ransom.<\/p>\n

Then He rose\u2014<\/p>\n

undefeated,<\/p>\n

unchanged,<\/p>\n

unshaken.<\/p>\n

Reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He walks with me through every valley.<\/p>\n

He speaks when the world is silent.<\/p>\n

He stays when others leave.<\/p>\n

He rules when chaos reigns.<\/p>\n

He reigns when kings fall.<\/p>\n

Reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

All heaven cries,<\/p>\n

\u201cWorthy!\u201d<\/p>\n

The saints cry,<\/p>\n

\u201cHoly!\u201d<\/p>\n

Creation groans<\/p>\n

and angels sing\u2014<\/p>\n

but none owe Him like I do.<\/p>\n

So I will reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With my breath,<\/p>\n

with my days,<\/p>\n

with my scars,<\/p>\n

with my praise.<\/p>\n

Forever and ever\u2014<\/p>\n

Reverence Him.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Ananke never blinked, never slept, and never made mistakes. It was humanity\u2019s masterpiece, the global optimizer. It managed power grids, food distribution, transportation logistics, emergency response, and climate stabilization. After decades of wrestling with famine, war, and political paralysis, Ananke became a welcomed stabilizing force in a fractured world. Humans still occupied positions of leadership,…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":150,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-essays","category-faith"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=149"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":151,"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149\/revisions\/151"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/150"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=149"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=149"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thecynicalpatriot.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=149"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
