A Noble Wife

Inspired by Proverbs 31:10-31 Who can find a capable wife?  She is more precious than gemstones Greatly enriching her husband's life Being trusted with her own throne She is very diligent and responsible Constantly working and supplies great treasure Others look up to her as remarkable To her husband her worth has no measure She extends a helping hand to the poor  And opens her arms to the needy People hold her up in grandeur As she is clothed with dignity When she speaks, her words are wise She gives instructions with kindness Carefully inspecting things with her eyes And suffers nothing from mindlessness She is someone worthy to obtain So adore your wives and be amazed Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain But a God-honoring woman is to be praised.

Ephphatha

Inspired by Isaiah 29:18 & 35:5; Matthew 11:4-6; Mark 7:31-35; Luke 7:21-23 It will not be very long The deaf will soon be able to hear  Like reading lyrics to a song And the blind will then be made assure That the darkness will be gone Blind eyes will suddenly see clear Broken ears will be made strong Deafness will disappear When to the scene Jesus comes along A mute and deaf man was brought to him As the people pleaded with Jesus to heal  So Jesus led the man away from the crowd To be alone with him He could properly deal And unto the only righteous judge Jesus made his case and appealed Then touching the man's ears and tongue He caused the affliction to be repealed  Go back and testify to others What you have seen and what you heard Everyone who hurts and also suffers All of their pain Jesus can cure Deception He will then uncover Condemnation has been deterred His love for you can be discovered So your liberation can be preserved Companion  poem

Inner Purity

Inspired by Isaiah 29:9-14; Matthew 15:1-20;  Mark 7:1-23; Galatians 5:16-26 Are you amazed and incredulous? Unaware of dangers so perilous Go ahead and remain blind You are confused but not from wine Continue to stumble and to stagger But you are not drunk from too much liquor Your spirit has just fallen asleep Your lack of discretion runs too deep "WITH THEIR LIPS THEY SAY THEY'RE MINE YET THEIR HEARTS ARE NOT ALIGNED THEIR WORSHIP IS JUST MAN-MADE RULES CONDUCTED BY RELIGIOUS FOOLS SO I WILL ASTOUND THE HYPOCRITES REVELING IN THEIR MALICIOUSNESS THE WISDOM OF THE WISE WILL PERISH THEIR INTELLIGENCE WILL BE A BLEMISH" "It is not what goes in your mouth That makes your spirit be in a drought It is what your mouth spews out That defiles you all throughout Food just passes through your body But does not make your soul so dirty It's from your heart that can be filthy Making your soul dark and empty" So let us live by His Spirit His holiness we can inherit Maki...

A Prophet's Honor

God raised up a prophet like Moses One who would be declared as  chosen Changing the curse of sin’s prognosis  He is God's grand magnum opus When he returned back to his hometown He amazed the crowd with teachings profound But right after he would be cut down As they got offended and became proud They scoffed at him as a nobody Perceiving things too emotionally Rationalizing their distrust boastfully Unable to see past their uncertainty A prophet is not honored by their own family As relatives can't see past their own vanity They won't admit to their own depravity Thinking they have greater morality They can't be blessed due to unbelief Staying in lament and stuck in grief Staying as victims to the great thief Not knowing who could bring relief No need to cry all you mothers Respect all our sisters and brothers  We can show love to each other  If His grace is discovered  He who adores our very souls Wants us all to be made whole It was death that he willingly ch...

Talitha Koum

Inspired by Mark 5:21-43 & Luke 8:40-56 The first woman came from Adam But everyone comes from women  Together we are to work in tandem  To complete God’s holy mission  Male and female HE created us We were created in His own image  We’re His children because of Jesus  So women enjoy your privilege  As His daughter you are special HE created you for a purpose HE sees you as a worthy vessel Please see beyond the surface You are precious in His eyes HE thinks that you are beautiful Do not believe in any lies Burn them away in a crucible  You do not have to suffer long Know that HE is your healer HE alone can make you strong Let Him complete His procedure You can cry and you can weep But stop your wailing as you sleep His love for you runs too deep Because your soul HE wants to keep So rise up and come awake Fill yourself with food Your inheritance you should partake With His Spirit you are imbued

Psalm 78

O my people, listen to my instructions Open your ears to my directions For I will speak to you in a parable Teaching you hidden things so credible Stories told for generations Of HE who is Lord over all creation These truths cannot be kept hidden We will tell our children's children To put our hope in His providence In His commands have confidence With stronger faith than our parents Abundant peace and blessed assurance So do not take His favor for granted Because our place can be supplanted If we do not find His grace sufficient And treat His anger as non-existent For His wrath is fierce and terrible The damage would not be repairable But He rises and comes awake For His own dignity's sake Cause He  still cares with a true heart As His love He wants to impart Crushing the head of the serpent As He raises up holy servants

Scattered Seed

A farmer went out to plant some seed Scattering them across his field Some fell where the birds can feed Others sprouted quickly  but soon unpeeled Some fell among the thorns and got obstructed Not wanting their lives to be disrupted They wanted to be uninterrupted So they let their lives become corrupted People look but they lack vision They hear but don't really listen Trying hard to pay attention Not having the comprehension The Kingdom of God is like scattered seed Night and day their growth proceeds To know how this happens there is no need But harvest time is guaranteed How fertile is your inner soil? Does the seed sprout and soon recoil? Or do you simply let it spoil? Know we are made to be royal So unto Him may you be loyal

The Sabbath

When the creation of       the heavens and earth were completed When God made sure       the whole universe was treated Finishing His work       so on the seventh day He rested Blessing the seventh day       declaring it a holy investment We are to keep the Sabbath day holy Showing reverence towards His sanctuary Not follow our own desires or talk idly But take delight as a day to be happy The Sabbath was for the needs of the people Not meant to be observed as lawfully legal It is not just to offer sacrifices But to show mercy and magnify His grace It is day to be doing good And saving lives as we should Jesus is Lord even over the Sabbath And honoring Him should be made a habit
