MIND GAMES

Four walls, darkness I’m in a room

Camera, lights, action! I’m on cue

Me, I am the real you

Though I may never be captured by these physical sight apertures I am the true you

Funny they say seeing is believing cos there is no question to it

I do exist and three can testify to this God Devil and you yes you

I am the black spot no extra-terrestrial entity can reach

I am the second most important being next to your spirit

I am your decision sector your emotional dictator

I am the reason why you feel the way you feel

I am an obsessive information collector

I am the secret to your intellectual competence

I am your soul or better put I am your mind and these four walls here, is my home

The darkness? Oh boy I love it

cos in it there are no limits to what I can do

You see the darkness it feeds my strength to create fantasies vast as seas

An unending world of lust my Monalisa masterpiece LOL!

 

Thing is I’m never satisfied and the possibilities just remain endless

Yes I am caged the reality sinks in but it doesn’t matter it was always meant to be or so I think

My blinded sight shades the reality to a beautiful grey so all I need do is forget

Forget I have no clue where I’m sailing to

Forget I have responsibilities to attend to

Forget I only live for the next minute

o matter it’s the civilized way, life on the fast lane

I just try to forget that soon you will die, your spirit will return to its maker

but I will have to find home on one side of eternity

Problem is I don’t think I’d qualify for the heavenlies

Forget I should Forget I would but the fact that I ignore the truth does not mean it ceases to be true

My feigned ignorance was the facade that shielded me up until the light came to me…

 

As we three listened to the preacher preach

I could sense a lot of activity a new thing was occurring

It seemed as if our old friend, your spirit was rebirthing

And somewhere in this dark enclosement a light was finally shining wow!

As the words flowed from me to your lips

We all surrendered to HIM who was and is and will forever be

We gave him total control and you know its so amazing

cos as you feed me with the knowledge of His word I am changing

Maybe not as fast as did your spirit but as the light gains more in

I am renewed not rebirthed I said renewed and though I’m just within you,

This is the miracle that transforms you.

 

So you want to be successful, I see all the plans you’ve made

All the strategies you wish to undertake

Don’t be surprised I know these, you conceived them in me

I understand you do this because one who fails to plan plans to fail

But why do you not plan to renew me daily?

Does not the word proclaim that new wine in old skin would cause a spill

Why do you plan without me?

Don’t you realize it all starts with me and now that you let the light in there are truly no limits to heights we can reach?

Listen, the success you seek has always been within.

So do this,

Be ye transformed by the renewal of your mind that’s me

Start thinking successful and what’s more start speaking successful

Stop dreaming and start proclaiming,

I have no better yesterdays,

I’m excelling exceeding abundantly far above kings and queens shall come to the brightness of my rising light

I am surnamed of the Lord so I am infinitely successful, I am globally impactful, I am eternally, divinely, explosively full of wisdom so I am no novice

I am born again, Holy spirit filled, tongue speaking the things that be not as though they were and so I proclaim

One day I am going to look back to see a myriad of right decisions

One day I’ll be so wealthy my trophy case full of testimonies

One day I’d tell others how God brought me to a point I can say I have run my course and finished my race I have used up all He put in me till all that is left is a thankful sigh

One day it will be today and my dreams will materialize before my very eyes

cos once my dreams towered before me Mountain Everest but I today proclaim my victory Zerubbabel.

 

Let these words shape the minutes, hours, days before you

And I assure you, once they get settled in me you have got the victory

For blessed is he that believeth haven not seen yet.

Let your future in and with your words shape it

Subject to His will let faith flow from me to form your reality

And yes once again please know this,

All you will ever be will of a necessity start with me

For at the end what matters most is what you believe.

Cut!

Numerous thoughts all to what intent

Looking for that which can truly satisfy my hearts’ content

Seeing there is so much left undone

All seems so enormous, how do I start this one? Continue reading

a light in dark times

FOOLISH TRUTH

Probably would start like a joke so funny

And you might have taken it for granted ignorantly

But when you’re faced with the truth and its reality

It makes nothing of the facts and notions of what life is

It betrays the knowledge learnt and gathered over the years

You may run from it, blot it out or try to ignore it

Yet it seems so real, too serious, sometimes even life threatening

It challenges the very depths of our understanding

And though facing it poses too much to handle

It always remains what it is, the truth.

Yes the truth we must face and acknowledge we must its reality

Be it now in this present world or in eternity

It holds the answers to our puzzles and questions that we seek

And no matter how cliché, petty, foolish, unwise, uneducated even unrealistic

You can be certain that it stands sure as the truth.

1st Corinthians 1:25-27

John 3:16 – “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him, shall not perish but have everlasting life.”

This is one truth we run away from although it does hold the answers we truly seek. The devil’s greatest trick is to make man live in a fool’s paradise called a normal life but no matter how foolish it sounds the +truth is here for all to see. JESUS SAVES
