When God Speaks

Listen to the quiet voice
realize He is speaking to you.

A peaceful, small sound,
keeping you from evil.

There is no one that loves you
more than He does.

A spiritual connection
to a Higher Being.

Listen. Be still.
Stop walking, stop talking.

Thought you had life figured out.
It all seemed so simple back then,
a pen, a little sin, and a win.

Then God speaks.
Warns you of what is to come.
Leaves you with a choice.
Make the right one.

The Holy Spirit

He told me don't go back to man,
but I did.
He told me don't touch man,
but I did.
He told me don't live with man,
but I did.
He told me to wait on God,
but I didn't.
He told me to love God,
but I didn't.
He told me to love God,
but I didn't.
So He cried and He cried
and God's wrath came upon me
like fire raining from a black sky.
God's volcano blew
and I was burned.
He asked me to come to God
and I did.
He told me that God loves you
and I accepted
He warned me don't cross God
and I froze, yet He put his arms
around me
and moved me still.

Know God

Struggle between both man and God
this child I knew had ran to the pew.

She hoped that God would change his plans
and release her from her master's hands.

The demon had made a pact with her life
and she had been feeling more hurt and strife.

Her dark, ridden soul had yet to be sowed.
God's power and love was something she craved.

For years her heart carried mistrust
she lied, she cheated and hid her lust.

And God Almighty would place his curse,
to avoid her ride in the big, black hearse.

The child had extreme ache deep within
for flesh was the root of her deep sin.

But his kind words would be her key
for he wanted her love ever faithfully.

So she would pray and fast for Him
in her room where the lights were dim.

And death would slowly begin to grow
and the leaves from the trees had begun to blow.

And those golden leaves laid upon her name
and her life was in His great hall of fame.

Your Spirit

I'm taken under way, way
down deep by your spell
beneath my heart.
I sing praise God!

A man of supreme love.
You are a savior to a soul
that was at one time ready
to travel a bitter trail.

You took away the lightening
and the thunder from tired lips,
spoiled fruit from a wounded body,
and daggers from vindictive eyes.
Thank you.

For you gave of yourself freely.
I foresee a prosperous future
trimmed in shimmering gold,
protected by heavenly spirits
together we walk side by side
toward the light.

Touched by His hand and embraced
by His power. His spell and your spell
I'm taken under.

God is Love


There is nothing in this world better
than seeing a man who has fallen in love with God.

His sins have been long carried by Jesus
his voice sings of the Holy Spirit.
He glows, smiles, laughs, cries.
My husband, Your Son, Our Father.

Thank you.
Touched he is by God's powerful hand
held is he by the Lord's wonderful embrace
problems become foundations of strength
to think twice about what you say and
how you say it is evidence of new found respect
for God is written on his face.

Jesus is his guide and the Holy Spirit is his angel.
Life will never be the same.
Salvation is the only way.
Prayers of strength to keep fellowship with God.
Life will never be the same for he will continue to grow,
humbled, relieved, understood, wise.

He is my husband, your Son, Our Father, Thank you!

The Spirit Lives

Some would be amazed if they took the time
to watch, listen and smell around them
And what they would see is trees that move alone,
rain that falls, snow that melts
and what they would hear is a roar of thunder,
the rat, tat, tat of hail, the whispers of wind
and they would smell all that grows green, moves,
sings, screams and they would be amazed.
For there is no scientific expression
that would relieve wondering senses.
For we know deep within who is responsible
and we shiver at the thought of something
bigger and stronger than ourselves and we
can't understand.
Going on our little merry ways and just living
without really taking notice.

Moments with God

I hear...
Indian chants
the dialect of a foreign stranger
rhythms of peace
a calming wind
the world far away.

In the upper room
I hear my God
I am his Son
No past pangs from the evil one.
I'm free!

No more voices ringing
"You are a sinner."
I know.
I'm not perfect.
There's no wrong
in perfect love.

God my comforter
wake me up
when it's all over!

When God Speaks, 10 Things God Told Me in the Spirit

1. Observe your surroundings.
Know that I, Your God, Am Creator. Pay attention to strangers and strange happenings.

2. Listen to my voice.
(I speak) in the clouds, through the birds, through song and dance. Listen to my messengers - people. I use all people, places and things to communicate.

3. Use your head.
Think first what is your initial thought on a matter -- a major decision.

4. Let everything you do be spiritual.
Ignore the natural man inside for his desires and wants are of the flesh.

5. You are not of Me when you decide to do things according to your own will rather than my will.

6. Ignore criticism unless I tell you otherwise.

7. A day without me is a day without protection.

8. No matter what you do, wherever you may go, stay in prayer and fasting. Refer to the Bible for answers.

9. Everything happens for a reason. This is your test.

10. You will move on to eternal life if you follow these ways. Look to the commandments -- look to scriptures. Know that I AM in the plan.

Who Can You Trust?

Darkness surrounds the individual who rejects the Lord. He wallows in his sorrows looking for a solution to a problem. His focus is not on the positive answers, because in darkness there is none. Looking amongst various family and friends, he hears several different solutions to one problem. Unfortunately, many are based on lies and selfish reasons. Misplaced trust that is his first problem.

Who will he trust when a loved one dies? Who will he trust when his money is gone? Who will he trust when his taxes are due?

His or her enemy isn't a neighbor, the government or a spouse. The enemy is within the individual, the devil within him or her.

For example, she trusts in her own solutions to solve problems at work. The boss is upset, because now it has been four times and she is still making the same mistakes. She knows that if she makes one more error, she will be on her way out the door. Eventually, the error is made and now she is left jobless. Her "instinct" tells her to trust in God. "Where was God before the mistakes occurred?" she asks herself. Answering her own question, she says, "My confidence and pride caused me to forget about God when things were fine."

How often must God's children go round and round to see what God is trying to say when things are good as well as bad? One can prevent the enemy of self by doing one thing and that is trusting in God.

So how does one trust in God? First, he must begin asking the Lord his opinion on the day-to-day activities he plans. If he knows he has a meeting to go to during the day, he may ask the Lord what shall he bring to the meeting or should he even go? Another example, he may have to prepare dinner after work, why not ask the Lord what to make for supper? In addition , there are house chores to be done, he may ask the Lord, "What task shall I accomplish today?" These little questions he asks God today will lead to bigger questions he will ask God tomorrow. Then , when times are rough and they will get rough, he can say, "Lord I trust that whatever happens in that operating room will be a success."

Remember the following scripture below as you begin to build a trusting relationship with God.

"Trust in the Lord and lean not on your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." -- Proverbs 3.

Part One: Is it god or God? A Little Something for the Believers

At one time back in 95-96, during my naive days of accepting church invites without thinking, I thought all believers served the same God, I was wrong. I thought all believers were suppose to act a certain way, dress a certain way, and rightly divide the word the same way, I was really wrong. The truth is not everyone who says, "Oh god, Thank god, Oh my god," believes in God.

Some of the celebrities will say, "Thank god..." after doing a sexually explicit movie, singing a song full of cuss words, or acting crazy in some video, do you really think the one true God had something to do with that? After gambling away money for years and then finally winning something people will say, "Thank god!" Then put all the money back into the casino or lottery again or use it to pay for something that will only need more money to keep it going. Oh there was definitely a god in the midst, but it wasn't the one that put his Son on a cross for our sins!

I use to think this way until I started reading the word for myself and I had to ask God for forgiveness. I was thanking the wrong gods! You see we always think about fat statues and weird symbols being idols but we don't think about things like: material wealth, food, sex, and music being gods and/or idols in our lives. For example, there are people who serve food literally. Praising it often, talking about it too much, and spending just about the majority of their paychecks on it and as they do they are getting bigger and bigger starting to look and smell old just like it! No one seems to say too much about serving the god of gluttony until health problems occur. Too much food, money, sex, entertainment and anything related to these areas without balance and the discernment to separate what's wrong from what is right can be a god in your life!

The only way we can combat temptation is to take God at His word!

Let Love Shine Upon a Face

Let love shine
upon a face
once filled with disgrace
when pain seemed too much to bear
when words were devoid of care
Let love shine upon a face!

No more running and feeling mad
crying alone looking sad
confused and acting bitter
displaying someone else's litter
Let love shine upon a face!

Days are so few
memories like morning grass dew
gone so very fast
good moments don't last.

So let love shine upon a face
be one of the first to finish the race
with arms held high
and a tear in your eye
wave goodbye to sadness
so long pain
God will stop all the rain!

Let love shine upon your face!

God is in the Plan

God awoke me one day
I had nothing to say.

For I had a bad dream
and I couldn't scream.

Enemy told me that I would die.
I knew it was a big fat lie.

But weeks later my face was on the floor
Had no idea what I was in for.

God used me to send a simple sign
a single word over the phone line.

No one wanted to think the thought
but they forgot that I was bought.

God was in the plan
and I in His hand
a reminder to us
time is like quick sand.

Need an Honest Spiritual Teacher?

This kind of teaching isn't popular among today's church. That is why so many of us have fallen by the wayside. If you are interested in the truth, watch this man. He is a good example of the fire and brimstone type of teaching, but sometimes we need to be reminded of our roots. Watch the video.

When It Happens

When pain comes like a rolling sea
Joy is found and you are free.

When bills are due and money is short
There God is standing in your court.

When trouble knocks on your door
Your old heart He does restore.

When bad news rings your black phone
Let it drop, here catch a dial tone.

When there is no comfy car
That’s okay the bus ain’t far.

When the laptop is in the shop
You’ll still make it to the top.

When he has gone and left the house
Forget about the ingrate louse.

When mom is not feeling her best
Remind her that it’s just a test.

When bad dad is stinkin' drunk
Don’t let him get you in a funk.

When your looking for a mate
Pray for love it's not too late.

When the children fight and whine
Call for help, go out and dine.

When time is sinking like quicksand
God is there to lend a hand.

Prayer for A Change Of Heart

An opportunity to be released
From heartache, and a headache.

Desiring, wishing,
Waiting – a long term commitment.

People watching, wondering
Who stole your heart?

Fear what isn’t.
Ponder what is.
Hope that everything between us will be alright.

And It Too Came To Pass...

It came to pass and you won’t call.
An issue of right and wrong, this is not.
An issue of fortune-telling and psychic
ability this is not.

Your life, my life if I don’t tell
is at stake...God told me.
But you don’t believe...
and it came to pass
now you won’t call.

I guess you can handle it all
by yourself. My season is finished
and yours has just begun.

Does the enemy have your hands
tied behind your back and tape
over your mouth?

It came to pass and you doubted.
You told me God doesn’t speak that often.

God doesn’t, God won’t, God hasn’t...
and it too came to pass.

Offended

Holding a gun to your head,
read the Bible
do what it says.
You know I haven't treated you this way.
It's all in your head.

Conversations about Jesus.
Not permitted.
Don’t force your beliefs on me
you say.
Whose forcing?

Godly Forces

Unseen forces
picked up the car and moved it
you won’t see it again
the devil had fled.

Unseen forces
standing behind you they won’t
stab your back
for God has his army.

Unseen forces
surrounding you
they won’t let the enemy
feed on you.

Unseen forces
way above my head
their making a place
for me at home in my bed.
