Mercy Oh Mercy

 Mark me Lord, to be called your own..

For your blood and your life, were drained to the bone.

In neglect I pursued, the wages of sin..

Now today I repent, so please let me in.


Astute I had thought, I might travel in gain..

To lands near and far, without any disdain.

Peace, it escaped me, while I hungered for fame..

All to be favoured, in the devil's own game.


At the height of success, I tooted my own horn..

Quick to be fixed, at the price of great scorn.

Unlearned in my passion, of the courses I took..

The pit I fell into, bore me weak as I shook.


Wasted and lost, I lifted my voice..

In hope of release, whereforth I would rejoice.

Decisive and troubled, desperately afraid..

I raised my broken heart and beseeched  for glorious aid.


Unworthy to enter, the presence of the Lord..

I struggled, though broken, to come out from discord.

Mercy Oh Mercy... I prayed it would come..

For cleansing and shifting, to take me from glum.


Oh, but my eyes,


could see the glory of the King..

To hear His voice speak gently and say I could sing.

Where once I was lost, now I am found..

Now my fellowship with Jesus, forever will be bound.

Hungry Days and Lonely Nights

Image
 I choose to walk, the narrow way.. With all my heart and with all I say. The sword in my heart and the Word in my mouth.. Continuously witness, against fear and doubt. I am sold out to, the Lord Most High.. Who quickens my spirit and hears my cry. Master of sound and healer of the sick.. Is there to shield me, against the devil's trick. The path I walk, is not for all.. For only the chosen, will heed the call. Through hungry days and lonely nights.. Goodness and mercy, are my guiding lights. To follow the crowd, was not my command.. While harvest time, is in such demand. Where the rivers flow, I have yet to know.. But I labour as I tarry and sow seeds for to grow. The forces of darkness, might rage at me.. But as a carrier of the anointing, I am quickened and free. The tools in my hands and the Lord as my shield... Are more than sufficient, for victory and yield.

Remember

Image
 When you feel like giving up. When you feel like your back is against the wall. Don't loose your focus. Don't worry about what tomorrow brings. Someone is praying for you. Someone is interceding to God on your behalf. You are not standing alone. When you feel like all hope is gone. Your answer is just a prayer away. The times when you feel lost... Know that you are found. When darkness surrounds you... Remember you are the light of the world. If at times you feel like your taste for praise is disappearing.... Remember you are the salt of the earth. When battles come... Know that the Lord is fighting for you. You have already won. When you don't know where your next meal is coming from... Remember that there is a table prepared before you, even in the presence of your enemies. When you feel discouraged... Remember that the arms of the Lord is around you.  When your children are disobedient... Remember that the Lord will create in them a clean heart and renew a right spirit

A Prayer For You

Image
 Father, tonight, I lift up your sons and your daughters, in the east.. in the west.. in the north and in the south, in the mighty name of Jesus. Lord, I pray for your touch. I pray for your joy. I pray for your peace. Let your bowels of mercy fall abundantly upon every one of them. Father, intervene in every situation and let the Holy Spirit move like a raging, rushing wind in their midst. Let them be consumed by the Blood of Jesus, in every area of their lives. Heavenly Father, cover them with your precious blood.. Clothe them with your armour and shield them from danger with your Spirit, in Jesus name. Lord, I speak total healing, upon their body.. their mind.. their heart and their spirit. Assign angels to guard them from every side. Penetrate every mountain, that stands in their way.. and deliver them from every spirit of bondage, in Jesus name. Lord, strengthen those who are weak. Comfort those who are hurting. Pour your oil of joy upon their head and let it run down the hem of t
