There's More

Few more laps to go in the year
Yet I am certain there's still much more
I can't seem to bring it to a wrap

I am focused on what it still hold

  
There's celebration and I'm gearing up
There's a project that must be completed

I cant pack up and leave yet

I hear the Lord say, there's more

There’s still time before it ends
The game is not over and I’m not quitting
I am not ready to back down
There are treasures to still unearth

So I stand in faith
The best is still ahead
I will not back down or speak contrary
I won't stop believing

I will not stop praying and possibly fasting
I will not throw in the towel
I must get all that is mine
So join in, lets push further there's much more

The wine may arrive late
But it’s the best there is

Its time to listen to your Lords instruction

He says there is still plenty to enjoy

No one can stop the hand of God 
None can stop him from speaking
He His a sovereign... He must be obliged

More He says; More I get

“Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now. John 2:10      tejuwrite@gmail.com

 

In an Instant

38 years is a long time to be in a spot
It has been 38 years of trying’s and failure
38 years of seeking for help but none came
38 years that seem will never end…
 
Rise; take up your bed and walk…
In few words Jesus dispersed his woes…
He made nothing what had been daunting
He removed his plaque just like that…
 
He made him wonder if he dreamed
This menacing adversity sent off so casually
Peace be still quieted the storm
A paralyzed man delivered without fuss
 

As usual my mind paints a picture…
How many can stand at par with him
The simplest of task will be real tasking
38 years of no real help
 
Jesus!!! Come swiftly to my rescue
Another day of shame I cannot bear
You care that I don’t drown in the storm
You promised joy not sorrow...
 
Praying is us calling His attention to ourselves
Meditating his building our faith in him
The mountain will not look as huge as we thought
We will see the end of all afflictions
 
What’s wrong, Red Sea, that made you hurry out of their way?
    What happened, Jordan River, that you turned away?
 Why, mountains, did you skip like rams?
    Why, hills, like lambs?
 
Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
    at the presence of the God of Jacob.
He turned the rock into a pool of water;
    yes, a spring of water flowed from solid rock. Psalm 114:5-8

Take me Deeper

To go higher; its a must to go deep
That tall building; go check its foundation 
This is what it takes to shine for longer
This sort is no stroll in the park...
 
Gold is not picked on earths surface
To come about diamond is not by coincidence 
Treasure is never in plain sight 
Luck is great, but don't depend solely on it

A proven system is bankable 
But that is even no guarantee in a storm
It's said the race is not won by the swift
The arm of flesh has failed many of its believers
 
If you know what to do, please do
For Peter fishing was a trade he was great at

Yet his skill and expertise will send him home empty

How many with great CVs get no where

The widow had no clue of how to get out of debt

She will loose two boys soon...

If crying is a solution; she has a river

But will it bail her from the woe that's ahead

For Job, unheard voices were at work 

He was left to face unseen battles
What was his mistake, where was he in the wrong

Yet he was plagued by a pain in the heart

 
Have depth in God 

In the days of plenty prepare for famine
Keep being His sheep 

Don't stray no matter how much it hurts

Introducing Faith and patience 

This combo can be tough

Just trust and stay rooted in Him

In your due time it will happen...

Don't Fall From Grace

I have read the Psalm before
But I saw it quiet differently
Several versions gave clearer meaning 
Which forced meditation and prayers

Psalm 89 is about King David
Though he's not the author 
It's about the Lord's choice of a nobody 
The help he obtained though he was undesired...

He came from one of the worst place ever
To the top of the dynasty 
With promises of his unending relevance 
His name will endure forever; God will see to it

Talk of safety, greatness, fame, victory, relevance...
It's a long read of enviable promises 
Then suddenly the words changed 
God will walk away from this wow blessings 

The Lord will not do as he promised 
The psalmist wants Gods anger to subside
And I wanted to know what went wrong...
What was responsible for this fallout?

Was the bridge ever mended?
This were some of my thoughts; then my prayer 
May I not fall from Grace. 
Don't take for granted Gods largesse

Too Early, Too Late

When Mary was told you have been favored 
She didn't expect it to be pregnancy outside wedlock 
It looked more like a burden 
It seems like a forced load

God could have waited just for few more months...
He could have hastened their marriage plans...
After all; she was already engaged to be married

Then gift them Jesus in Holy Matrimony

Having  a son nine months after 
Will come with joyful celebration 

Jesus himself will have a soft landing
But this so called blessing will come with shame

She will have to endure questioning stares

She will have to explain an impossible situation 
She will be disengaged from her would be spouse
So much for the blessings of God that adds no sorrow 

Zachariah, Elizabeth, Mary and Joseph
Had an intertwined destiny 
Elizabeth's pregnancy in old age is the trigger
But in all; God will bring His Will in His time

So at the appointment seasons 
Zechariahs unbelief couldn't stop the momentum 
Mary unmarried status won't be a barrier 

John the Baptist and Jesus must be born

What has been written must stand

If it's in your destiny it will come to pass
However you may have to wait it out like the Zechariah's 
Or have it earlier like Mary and Joseph

And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28    …Tejuwrite…

To Be Seen 2

What is happening in Lodebar...
That town doesn't get to be in the news often...
But on this day the kings’ heralds were in town... 
Mephiboseth was the man they sought...
 
He had been born a prince
Life happened and his royal garment got shredded 
Lodebar was the only location affordable 
A town of bareness, a place where nothing grows
 
This was his new address
Cut off from the beauty of the palace
Taken away from mingling with the creams
This became the fate of a Kings grandson
 
To make his shame more obvious
He was lame on both legs
And lacked the help of attendant slaves
I often allow my imagination paint me a picture
 
What I see of him is pathetic
He may fare better if no one knew his ancestry

At least he will avoid the goggling stares
A fall from grace, by no fault of his
 
Away from all that was familiar
Disinherited from all that could have been his
Living out his days in horrid reality
Yet; the seeing God was on his case…
 
Jehovah El Roi will cause David to remember…
Mephibosheth was to be searched out
He was to be returned to the palace
He will once again seat amongst princes

Get God to see you

Pray, fast do whatever it requires

Hagar, Mephibosheth had pleasant turn arounds

Don't end in Lodebar or keep wandering in a desert

To Be Seen

He is known by several beautiful names
Yet Hagar will give another; El Roi
A Hebrew name meaning The God who sees me
What a name from a most unexpected person

Everyone has a story, Hagar's side is not often heard
She grew and at some point became a slave 
Then she will be used as a mistress 
Bait for children for her madam

Don't blame her if ambition kicked in
And she will want to be more than just a slave
After all they gave her the taste of the pudding
She also desire the finer things of life...

She won't have her wishes; she was shown the door
She was sent out with her son into uncertainty 
Few food and supplies for a desert journey 
What really were their chances of surviving?

Starvation is their imminent end 

Ishmael wont stop crying for the food she cant provide

His cries ripped her soul apart
So she set her child apart so not to witness his death

El Roi will be true to His promise

The seed of Abraham is snatched from death

She has been seen by the One who can help
The One who’s mindful of them

I want to be seen and helped by the one who’s got me

To be embraced by the One who controls the Universe

The One who knows what every sigh means
Who can wipe my tears and give me a pleasant beginning
