The announcement comes:
Kingdom!
Good News to the margins;
judgment to the self-appointed center.
This new thing,
fulfilling the former things,
coming certainly,
coming surprisingly,
coming in shadows:
here now,
not yet--
enthronement awaits;
anointing is now.
This, the desire of God's heart,
his divine decree,
rests on his true people.
