AN EXCHANGE

What a mighty God we serve,
What a great king we have,
What a bounty gift He gave,
The gift of His only son,
To die for a fallen race,
Seeking that which was lost,
for the benefit of the lost,
It was an exchange!
A life for a life…

Right on a tree
His son wriggled in pain
Taking my place,
Soothing my pain,
Erasing my sins,

Calling my name,
Jesus, my saviour, my joy, my hope…
Right now, the decision is up to me,
Accepting His sacrifice of love or
Seeking my own futile ways…

THE GATEKEEPER

I am the gatekeeper
It is my job, my duty and my office
I stand from dawn to the rise of the stars,
Like Nehemiah, I’ll build this edifice

I’m going to sharpen my vision with consecration.
My voice, loud with prayer in the prayer foyer
My job is to be in charge
Occupy till I come is the charge.

The lives and destinies of men are under my watch
I’ll stay upon my watch; to pray and watch
Always standing tall on mu kneels
Interceding, crying and pleading for God’s mercy n’ protection

I have to the solution door, the keys
Like Ezekiel, I am the minister of protection
I will in form of an on-coming danger,
A good shepherd and a true ranger

I refuse to faint, praying always
Praying always, men ought to do and not the former
With all supplication and thanksgiving to God
I’ll morn, fast until Zion, triumphs in the lord.

Are You A Gate Keeper?

ALETTER TO DIVINITY {MY TESTIMONY part 4}

At first I didn’t understand you
It all looked like another lie
How can you tell me you were in love with me?
Yet all I see is all you never promised
Oh now you would say its my fault
Or maybe I didn’t do the right thing
But its all your fault; because you have all the money
You have all the power and I’m weak;
All the houses yet I live on the streets
What is there to enjoy in this relationship anyway
But now I know better; and best is so far
Finally I said yes to your proposal
Now I feel like a king
I give myself away!!!
Your protection, is over protective
Faithful in my unfaithfulness, merciful and longsuffering
You filled my insides with yourself
Now I’ll deliver as you have always wanted
But you’re so patient, that I’d learn
I stray and you stay, preserve and protect, bless and use
I blame you, you never blamed me
You warned me not to go that way but still I did
Now I see ills and pour the hates on you and I now return again
What would you have me do? You three in one
Trinity in divinity

MY TESTIMONY part 3

He said you would come; he said you’ll never leave
When you came, you searched for me
I know where you found me
You explained him to me; I thought I knew so much
You taught me what he said you will,
You only spoke the truth

Here I am now living all by myself
You talk in that voice and push but i resist
Must I do this evil to all who truly love me?
But then I realized you’re not a feeling
You are more real than my heart bat
The almighty; my best friend who has my interest

The other day you suggested what i wear, I did
The other day you suggested what read I didn’t
The other day you suggested what I eat, I did
The other day you brought them my way; I misunderstood
I always want to cheat on you
For getting that you got there before me

Wish you’d stop suggesting and just make me do it
This choice in a choice I made had really killed me
I lost you, but big brother brought you
Please never leave me again
You are the best friend I’d ever have; please one thing i ask
Can we be intimate? Cos I love to love you
Sweet Holy Spirit.

MY TESTIMONY part 2

The best elder brother you’d ever have
Gave up his inheritance when I lost mine
Appeared weak just to give me power
Other servants could have done it but he decided to do it on his own
Daddy didn’t need to ask twice

Not knowing he was the one, I spat on his face
Called enemies to scorn and put him to shame
if only he had told me who he was
If i had known it was all for my sake
But my decisions didn’t change his

Broke his heart but he was bent on mending mine
His love for family made him shed his blood
He kept at it till he had no more blood to shed
Now I can speak to father because of him
He promised to return, and I have missed him

Hope I’m still following in his footsteps
Cos really my big brother is the biggest hero in history
Broke every law science would make
Spoilt mathematics when he said two equals one
The first master to ever wash a servant’s feet

Then when he needed me I denied him
But now I know better than to go through this alone
For he told me to do just one important thing for him
Go and preach!!! So i pledge allegiance
To you my Saviour
