An Altar Called Stillness

Altar Called Stillness:

After Eli’Zur left, Caleb went to the altar called Stillness. In his normal posture, he heart-linked with the Timeless-One. Afterward, he sang a song.
Oh, Timeless-One
Creator of all
Full of power
I hear the call.
You have no beginning
You have no end
You are wisdom
On You I depend.

The above is taken from, “Black Dome” from my book, The Caleb Chronicles.

Exo 14:13a And Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD,
Job 37:14 "Listen to this, O Job; Stand still and consider the wondrous works of God.
Psalm 4:4 In your anger do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts (meditate) and be silent (still). Selah
Psalm 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

Altar in Hebrew is Mizbeach. It means, “Place of Slaughter”. Altar of Stillness is almost an oxymoron. Yes and no. On this altar we are going to slaughter our worries, or concerns, our fears, our trials, our temptations, our frustrations, our thoughts, our bitterness, and our grudges. We are going to stand still, be silent and listen. We are going wait upon the Lord and listen for His direction, His will, His Voice.

Yes, we need to give the Timeless-One praise and worship. We need to tell Him we love Him and bring our needs before Him, but sometimes we need to be silent and still, and listen.

Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD,
Stand still and consider the wondrous works of God.
Search your hearts (meditate) and be silent (still). Selah
Be still, and know that I am God;

Go, and find a place with no distractions and no outside noise. Now, be still, search your heart (Heart-Link with the Timeless-One), be silent and listen. The Timeless-One will speak to you, He will tell you marvelous things.

Selah, I.H.G.
