    About this ebook

    This collection was written by Cesar during his late teens, and each piece of writing was originally intended to remain as a personal record of his journey with God. Yet the collection at some point became much more than mere thoughts about the world and God; they developed into poems, lyrics and poetry on a full range of subjects.

    M Cesar

    Have lived in Various places, but now based in Dublin Ireland. I used to be drawn to write books with my own ideas, but since December 2012, I have been writing books that are inspired by God and what he has been revealing to me. Much of this has been centred around the Revival that has come to Ireland and the changes that God wants in the hearts of the believers, as well as the changes needed in churches throughout Ireland and further afield. Cesar, simply means Come Everyone See A Revival, and I use this name in order to keep my heart humble before God, to remind myself that without Him, I am nothing.

      Introduction

      This book is a collection of writings which I wrote over a period of a couple of years, roughly from the ages of seventeen to nineteen. These writings were intended originally just be something personal between myself and God, with the possibility of using some of the writings for lyrics of songs.

      However as time went on, some of the writings became more than just lyrics, some were prayers, some were much more poetic and some were just about me having a rant at the things that were going on in my life at the time.

      It was a strange process for me to look back at things I had written many years ago, however in saying that, there are many of the prayers where I ask for things which have since materialized into my life, so this book is intended as a dedication to God as he has been faithful to me and looked after me. I would also like to take the opportunity to thank all those people who where an inspiration to me in my teenage years which include Joe & Claire, Herbert & Jean, Carol, Melissa, Becca, Karen & Daren, Mike, Ken the drummer and all my family.

      ****The prayers poems and songs have all been editing into poem format for this book, therefore the beginning of each line starts with a capitol letter. Furthermore it was decided to use the format as used in Psalms from the NIV Bible, in terms of only using capitol letters when referring to God, or other names under which he is known.

      CHAPTER 1

      1. Playing God

      Who laid the foundations of the world?

      No one except the Lord our God,

      And it detests me to think

      Of how men play god,

      Putting their seemingly perfect GM foods,

      Into this atmosphere,

      But I know that what God

      Made is perfect, because it doesn't

      Just have to be perfect for us

      But also for animals and insects,

      God will not look easily down,

      On those who do not accept

      His creations and want

      To play god, it sickens me too

      2. Queen of Frost

      She's the queen of frost

      That freezes my soul and causes me to

      Stop in my boots,

      She goes by the name of -

      And all she does

      Is freeze my soul,

      I fall to the ground

      Until Jesus comes

      To receive me and take me back

      But I go back

      Into the affair

      Because she is part of me,

      She is evil

      And she drags me in

      And she goes by the

      Name of sin,

      Jesus has released me

      From my sins

      By forgiving me once,

      That will cover all my sin,

      And even though I

      Go back to sinning now and then,

      I know I will return

      To the Saviour of my life

      Because he will rescue me

      3. See His eyes

      I wonder about those

      Who walked with Jesus,

      Especially the twelve,

      These people were the only ones

      To see God's work through Jesus

      While here on earth,

      In a way, I'm jealous,

      I wish I had been there

      To see his miracles

      And hear his teachings

      And to see into his eyes,

      And that he would see into my heart,

      But I am alive now, not then,

      And it doesn't mean I can't

      See God's works, because I can,

      But I want to

      See his eyes,

      Hear his voice,

      Face to face,

      And I know I will do

      The day I'm in heaven

      4. See my Sin

      It was a complex system,

      Of crossing wires and

      Explosive devices,

      Charged to explode

      Jesus came walking by,

      Saw me and disarmed

      A potential danger to myself,

      Little did I know

      What I was like

      And what I was doing

      Till Jesus opened my eyes,

      And I could see my sin

      5. Self-control

      This is the biggest thing

      I've had problems with, in my spiritual life

      Because it covers such a wide area,

      Lord, I ask that you’ll help

      Me to refine myself

      From such things you don't agree of,

      Like a bad humour, or sour face,

      These things I must throw away,

      And take on the attitude of Jesus,

      So that people won't look at me in scorn

      Or rejection because

      I say one thing and do another,

      So Lord please help

      6. Sometime soon

      I have heard rumours

      And rumours of rumours,

      Of how revival is striking countries,

      This is how I know the end

      Is sometime soon,

      Because earthquakes are more

      Common just as other natural tragedies,

      I need to prepare for the day

      You return, because I don't

      Want to look back in remorse or regret,

      I need to live every day

      With the state of mind that

      'Jesus is coming tonight'

      How much more would I

      Do on such a day?

      For if everyone

      Knew Jesus was coming

      Next week for example,

      They would do so much,

      And really give everything to God

      7. Stalemate to Checkmate

      My soul longs for a close touch

      With you Lord,

      I have always loved to spend time

      In your presence, because it gives

      Me such joy

      I am so angry at myself,

      Because I am holding back,

      I would do anything to move forward

      But I don't, because I myself hinder it,

      It just won't sink in Lord,

      My mind fights with my soul,

      Fighting for control but at

      The moment they're at a cease fire,

      And have settled for stalemate,

      But the truth of it is,

      I need my soul to win,

      Lord, I'm asking you,

      To break my mind down

      So I won't hinder

      What my heart is saying to me

      8. The Lord Spoke

      The Lord spoke to me

      And said, you shall seek me,

      You shall find me with all of your heart,

      And something in my heart moved,

      Because I didn't expect a sound,

      It encouraged me, that I do have a hope

      And I do have a future,

      But first I have to seek God,

      And everything else will fall into place,

      I just don't know where to start,

      I'm afraid, almost reluctant,

      For I've failed before, as God knows,

      So I think I should trust in him,

      I need to have a lot more faith,

      And I need to seek God

      9. Through Them

      When I see what happens in the church I attend,

      I get so encouraged with what you are doing there,

      And what you’re achieving,

      You are sending blessing down,

      And the people there are loving,

      And really stand with you,

      So it's not just encouragement

      But a challenge for me to be more like you Jesus,

      So I thank you for them,

      And the way you speak to
