MISS FORTUNE

September 28, 2017September 28, 2017Leave a comment

This is a story about a girl in her twenties and a guy in his twenties; late.

They went
On a date when every other person walked into the mall hands in hands and shoulders;
That’s today.

Their fates already sealed by the late mr Kori and little Miss Kate.

So I know, and you know that he would be leaving this evening with a no,
And she would have dodged another bullet of a man sent to rent what’s left of the tattered clothing of her shadowed past,
Park into her heart with no rent.

Brothers and sisters, you relate with this right?

How often do we already decide what he intends, from the last person we met who was from the same tribe?
Has the same look, with a similar beard, same complexion, from the same country;

How we now act like everyone with the same ‘dark’ name plays the same bad game has left me wondering;
If this field will ever be fair.

I mean, long before I came along your path someone, somewhere already did my name a smear, so all I do with whatever I do, or do not, would be to remind you of him, how awful?

And when you can’t seem to box me you still find a box to box me, your low blow finds a way to make ‘all men, all women, the same’

Dear dearie;
Just because we all carry the Y chromosome doesn’t make us the same with your EX, the same way your X doesn’t make you miss Kate,

Our meeting was not a mistake.
I am not Mr. Kori.
I wouldn’t choose quick seconds over the trust you give;
I wouldn’t love you and leave;
Or maybe I would, but please

Let me not pay for what he did.
And don’t let him pay for what I did,

And if you can do this for me, I promise to hold up my own end of this bargain, and not think you only came for the money,
not let you pay for all she did.

No I’m not saying ‘snap out of it’, I know you still hurt, you are human so you should feel;
but let’s consciously drink from these bars tendered to heal;
And in a short while from now,

A little walk from this bar; we would have drunk to fill.

For only then would we walk into the mall, hands in hand,
And maybe, I would be fortunate enough to get a ‘Yes’ by the end of the night, this time from the real you, on this date, the day we finally let go.

Let’s face it,
Nobody is really real with all the weight;
So we can lose the hate, and plan to love again, today.

THE PRIESTLY GENERATION

October 22, 2016November 1, 2016Leave a comment

He looked afar in search of a kind

But in the lot, none worthy was found

The earth groaned, the heavens moaned

As darkness covered the people whole

Kings grew numb, princes too dumb

For servants rode horses and sin reigned on deaths throne

A cry was heard around the city walls

That of hope rekindled, joy reborn as chosen elites were brought forth

Redeemed from destruction, renewed by the Word

This kindred a wondrous sight to behold

Priests unto salvation, prophets unto redemption

To bring home the lost and weary souls

Armed with a clean spirit and wilful heart

These guide to reveal hidden mights

An array of mediators, an array of conquerors

All created to bring glory and honour to His throne

A channel of power, God’s mighty arsenal

Breaking through hell’s gated and fallow grounds

They turn not from their shepherd’s lead

They fear not even in the darkest deep

They march on along the righteous path representing Christ

A priestly generation ordained, the Kingdom’s light.

M&M- Gifts pt 3

August 12, 2016August 11, 2016Leave a comment

We would now go to the other 3 gifts that say something.I would like us to go through the scriptures, check out these gifts and then if you have any question as pertains the study, you can just ask and get a reply.

The gifts that say something

*Prophesy

*Divers kinds of tongues

*Interpretation of tongues

PROPHESY

The simple gift of prophesy have been mistaken to be FORE TELLING. That is not a right way to think else you would run into the cofusion of trying to differentiate between the gift of prophesy and the word of wisdom.

Prophesy is FORTH TELLLING. It is not to predict some certain events in the future, but just speaking out by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in a language we understand. Paul said in 1Corinthians 14:3 but he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exortation and comfort.

That is exactly what the simple gift of prophesy is, when you speak with an unknown tongue no one is edified, but if you interpret in a known language, you have prophesied.

In Acts 21:9-10 a distinction was made between some daughters that prophesied and then a man named Agabus who was a prophet. And being a prophet or any of the other ministerial gifts is not a portfolio, they are all jobs. I think we would get into that pretty soon because everyone has been called to ministry and it is full time too for everyone.

I hope I was clear on the gift of prophesy? Now I would show an example of prophesy from a place in the bible to show there can be no single fore telling and it would be prophesy. How many of us have manifested these gifts but we do not know because we have been ignorant of spiritual things, Paul doesn’t want that for the Corinthian church anymore than God wants it for us. Lets look at it Luke 1:67-79

Verse 67 says “and his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying

Now if you read through you won’t see any specifics on fore telling, but he spoke forth divine things as the Spirit enabled him. Am sure if anyone had listened, they would be very edified. That is an example.

Lets take the last two gifts together

DIVERSE KINDS OF TONGUES AND INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES

These two gifts are the only gifts exclusive to the church, the gifts exclusive to the new testament.

It is as simple as it sounds, the gifts of tongues. If you notice divers in the King James Version was italicized it means it was added when translating to make up for laguage barriers, so these gift of tongues manifests in one way, the person speaking does not have any idea what is been said.

Unless interpretation comes in.

You might speak in tongues and it would be the language of another person as inspired by the Spirit, the person would understand you.

Paul made an interesting disctinction on two kinds of tongues 1Corinthians 13:1 tongues of men and tongues of angels.

Tongues of men is simply speaking a known language that you didn’t learn but men know it while tongues of angels is speaking mysteries that no man knows. The knowledge is not fruitful without an interpretation.

Now interpretation of tongues is not one heavy duty too, Paul said you should pray to interpret too as much as you speak 1Cor 14:13. If you ask God, if you desire, if you are willing to give it expression, you would see them happen.

In prayers, it is best to speak with tongues because it would be praying from our spirit Romans 8:26

At times we have the urge or burden to pray and we don’t know why we are praying, who we are praying for or what to even pray for: at this point pray in other tongues and you would be praying God’s divine will you can never pray amiss when praying this way.

As you pray at times, you get to narrow down to a person or a place, in your spirit, or you might receive a word that directs you and then you would know exactly why you have prayed or you are praying, however if this doesn’t happen, pray and leave it alone. Just pray!!!

When this prayer is done in tongues it happens at times that you begin to know some words in your spirit that you would speak out, just speak them out. At times you would pray in tongues for a long time and have just two words to say in your understanding, at other times you have prayed for a little while and by inspiration you are speaking for minutes. There is no formula to this, just follow the Spirit,

He does the leading and you do the yielding.

Glory to God.

THE MAN OF WAR

I see Ten thousand Chariots, One Rider.
Blood stains on His robe drenching,
Blood Veins in His arms bulging,
Vigilance in His gait springing,
Fire in His eyes blazing.

I see judgment on the Horizon.
Leviathan trembling. Ashtheroth shivering. Continue reading →

HIS (perfect) WILL

January 30, 2014May 2, 20142 Comments

Our father(check)
Who art in heaven(check)
Hallowed be thy name(check)
Thy kingdom come(check)….
Thy will be done, or my will will simply suffice?….
I believe we have all prayed this prayer saying its our Lord’s but in reality its just us trying to fulfill all righteousness! I heard that every Christian was once unrighteous and is redeemed by a God whose name is highly esteemed above every other, making every Christian His righteousness, meaning He already fulfilled all righteousness, so a Christian can also be called His righteousness! Now if righteousness is a way of life, then our whole ways in life should be directed by the one who fulfilled all righteousness in the first place.
Yeah you can get it freely and as priceless as the word GRACE. But no; we shunt the perfect will of a perfect God that not only created us but also re-instated us when we willingly sold out and went dark side,spinning and getting stuck in webs like spiddy, not to mention the amount of times He re-sainted us after we all fell, well I DID!!!
I see you get angry and deeply frustrated when your cell phone hangs, malfunctions or goes off and then comes back on in the middle of an important operation, but you didn’t create it. God created man with a perfect plan but most times you hang in your depression, malfunction in your emotions and even go off and on deliberately with proper excuses,..for days, months and weekly in your walking with Him, so much that it almost looks as though you are trying to see what He would do when you say
“..well d situation was merely too tempting”
. I never really understood it when the Spirit said that Love suffereth long, till i got to understand that God is LOVE. Cos unlike how I get so angry that I curse at and replace an annoying cell phone purchased with cash, He still blesses and keeps this imperfect me bought and washed by d blood of the lamb.
His will being done on earth, like judgement would start from d church, stop thinking about the building its actually you and I who left but was given a secret number JESUS just to keep in touch, so if He does His will in you and in me, then d world would be automatically transformed, but how is that gonna be?..when i have my set goals and lists of selfish prayers….; God bless me, my friends, my families,…seriously, how many times did you ever hear Christ pray that?..
Let your Kingdom come on earth, should be our major prayer, see. When u seek His kingdom 1st, every other thing shall be added unto u. We fall in a generation where we don’t like the world but they are the first to hear of our problems,call it social media/”ME-THERE”, forgetting we have a father who rules in d heavenly, who not only wants to hear about what we are going through but also has the resources to solve them. Really I’m short of words to say this; how ma heart is but, the master planner didn’t just create a planner like you without a plan, so next time you are saying the Lord a prayer, don’t be the reason His expectations have not reached the sons of men!

And people, if you don’t know where to start or a bit scared what His will is, I would advice you look in the bible.
