No To Poverty

How do you tell a child there’s no food?
Hope you know the child won’t understand
The child would also not stop crying
Asking you for what to feel its stomach
 
Poverty is a curse that Jesus crushed
Let it not surface in your life
Scripture tells us of a mother who told her son
This sticks we gather is to prepare a last meal...
 
After we eat this; we die...
Except the food is poisoned that’s not happening
Thankfully God intervened through the prophet
Because no child is buying that story
 
Poverty must be fought with understanding
With hard work and prayers
Lack takes your sense of reasoning away
Its why the devil wants to impoverish people
 
It’s also the reason people do unimaginable things
Just to have their needs met
It seems their conscience is muted
Simple logic is far from them
 
Poverty must have no place around you
It will make rubbish your integrity in no time
Make a decision not to seek an alternative
Regardless of your present status, choose to live right
 
I don’t know any ten keys out of poverty
I suggest you find a legit work to do
Plan your life based on your income
Have a family you can conveniently cater for
 
I asked a menial job artisan how many children he has
He answered ten; I'm still shocked by his response...
Gods blessing will reside in our homes
Even in famine we wont lack; I pray in Jesus name

He lifts the poor from the dirt and the needy from the garbage dump. Ps113:7  ...tejuwrite...

Praise Still...

Let everyone that has breath...
It’s not let everyone that has music…
While sound can enhance our praise
Our worship must be in recognition of who God is
 
Paul and Silas had no coordinated sound 
They praised and worshiped regardless
They were thrown in a smelly dungeon
They were bound in chains…
 
Locked up for the gospel sake…
They could take up a lament…
Blame God for not defending them…
Rather; they sang songs of praise
 
If it’s bad blame God; if its good thank Him
We forget God is good by nature
He can’t help being good; He can’t repay good with evil
He can’t hurt the world and people He created
 
Praise draws Him closer
Paul and Silas knew that’s the wise thing to do
They need Him in their lowest season
They can’t afford despair
 
Let me be where His presence is
We need this understanding always
When things are not as planned…
Let that spur us to draw closer
 
Soon He will storm the dungeon breaking chains
He did it for Paul and Silas; He will same for all
Let Him be your constant refuge
In all season let His praise be in your heart 

Psalm 34:1… I will praise the LORD at all times. I will constantly speak His praises. I will boast only in the Lord; Let all who are helpless take heart. Come, let us tell of the Lords greatness; let us exalt His name together     …tejuwrite…

Goodness

She is one woman you can call an ingrate
She failed in showing loyalty to her master
She despised the one she was to help
She scoffed Sarah; she mocked her son Isaac
 
Eventually she was sent off with Ishmael her son
Their food and water finished and they lacked
They could have died of starvation
But God's goodness reached out to them in the desert...
 
He is a man who lived in the worst places
He described himself as a dog
The goodness of God sought Mephibosheth out
He will seat on King David’s table as a prince…
 
She is a woman who has lost her spouse
Now she is going to bury her only child
She met the one who goes about doing good
The widow of Nain returned home with her son in joy…
 
God is good; all the time He is
He passed before Moses declaring His name Goodness
He makes us partakers of His abundant goodness daily
How blest we are to be so loved

I am yet to see the one that is truly righteous...
I am yet to meet the truly good person...
I am yet to see the one without a flaw...
I am yet to encounter a perfect being...
 
God choose to be good to the worst of us
If He were to name iniquitous who will be excluded
He choose to forget and forgive our wrong
He has been specially good to me

It's no licence to sin; there's consequence for wickedness
It is simply celebrating His goodness
Ps.31:19 Your goodness is so great! You have stored up great blessings for those who honor you,,, ...tejuwrite...

My Economy

I need not flaunt my wealth
That may not be a wise approach
The present economy seem harsh
However; God has remained good to me
 
As price of commodities rise
Somehow it has remained affordable
I have not cut back on necessities
I find myself able to feast fat
 
The prices seem to tinge the ear
It seems more is required for less
Somehow I find life is easier
He seem to keep making more ways
 
Darkness in Egypt; yet light in Goshen
Rainfall in one place; drought in another
Some are toiling for meager resources
Some are reeling in abundance
 
God’s word must be the standard always
He is the truth; He is my forte
He is behind my economy
Because of Him; it has remained well
 
The one that sits on High laughs
I will not be one to cry, lament or sorrow
What He does, I do; what He sees, I must see
What He says, I must say; How He acts I must also
 
His economy must reflect in my economy
I must never struggle to live well
Basic amenities remain easy to access
What He says of me is true always
 
God is sorting His people
It's not about the largest bank balance
Its in contentment and peace
Its in gratitude and safety

Psalm 34:10 young lions lack and go hungry, but those who seek the Lord will lack no good thing ...tejuwrite...

Like it or not

All tongues will confess…
They acknowledge the name Jesus
All knees will bow…
They bow in reference to Jesus
 
Devil and goons cannot do otherwise
Their submission is a reflex act
They don’t have to like it
Want to or not; they comply
 
The Lord said; let the earth bring forth plants
The earth promptly obeyed
For what the Lord says; He must see
What He wants must happen
 
God our creator wants us to live in dominion
Rule and reign wherever He sends you to
Excel in the task He sets before you
Triumph irrespective of the odds against you
 
I do not see light begging darkness...
Saying... please allow me to shine
When light appears; the dark becomes extinct
It has no iota of respect for the dark
 
You must possess an overcomer mentality
A superior mind is needed to unseat deceivers
Your head must be held high always
Never cower; your Maker doesn’t
 
Displace the things you abhor in your life
God sent Lucifer out of His Heaven
Don’t dwell with things seeking to unseat you
You will reign; if you know who you are

J

What seem to be the problem with us humans
We tend to live our lives tagging others along
Jacob was truly His mother’s child
The grandchild of Abraham the friend of God
 
His parents were carefully guarded in life
Abraham named is son Isaac; laughter not delay
He arranged for him to get a good wife
He seem to try to lay soft landing for him
 
Isaac and Rebekah were not the best parents
Pitching their two sons against one another
Rivalry often experienced in polygamous homes
Was the atmosphere they created for Esau and Jacob
 
How many souls have been scarred by parental actions?
The children’s teeth is already edgy
Because the parents ate sour grapes
This have been the norm from the time of Adam
 
What do we want to transmit to the coming generation?
We must put deliberateness in our actions
Don’t plant the seed; you won’t consume the fruit alone
Live your life with your generation in view
 
God we are told His generational
When introducing Himself to Moses
He says this… I show love to many thousands and forgiving every kind of sin and rebellion; But I punish the children for the sins of their parents to the third and fourth generation
 
As I pray and interact with people
In most cases their issues is a spill out from their heritage
Fantastic believers yet thrown into misery
By things they nothing about…   it continues 

Israel; The Prince

If the foundation is destroyed
A believer can seek for changes
Jacob whose name means cheat…
Sought Gods blessing which he received
 
The power of identity and prayer
It changed things for him
With parents as Isaac and Rebekah
One will expect better...

His wife Rachel would make similar error
She named her child Ben-oni child of my sorrow
Thankfully Jacob knew enough than to allow this
He swiftly changed it to Benjamin; son of my right hand

How many have been scarred
Many suffer from errors of their forbears
Putting an unnecessary yoke on a child
If there's any to blame; dump it on Adam

Our actions today is an harvest for coming generation
We can transfer blessing or curse to our lineage
Disobedience greed, sin can bring untold hardship
If only I can turn back time…

Back date to the time of Adam and Eve
But you can make better choice today
Chart a better Patriarchal order for your ancestry 
Let them be thankful you came ahead

Whatever choice they made, we must choose better
We cant keep blaming them, we must move to better
We must take ownership of our own life 
It is ours after all and we can turn it around

Jacob is Israel, He fought and warred in prayer
He stands as a Prince today; a global beacon 
Telling us we can chart a better course
If he did it; we can also
