Praise Break - Ghost Town (Freedom)

The earth was new, a great frontier
The perfect place to spread his fear
So satan set up shop to draw them in
Bright lights to display all his wares
"Come on in, forget your cares"
That devil knew just how to package sin
People came from far and wide
Not a guilty soul denied
But before they knew they'd been deceived
They'd step inside and never leave
They said his eyes were black as coal
His voice a shudder to the soul
He preyed upon the broken and the proud
He told them they were lost for good
No one loved them and who would
Before too long he owned that fallen town
And from inside the gates they'd wail:
Who can save us from this hell?
And as their hopes turned into tears
He laughed and all his demons stood and cheered

Then down a dirt road from the east
Came one, they said, could slay the beast
But did not fight with bullets or a sword
They called him Mercy and at his side
A thousand angels chose to ride
And as they moved, the ground, like thunder, roared
Stepping down from his white horse
And with a supernatural force
He spoke to his demonic foe
"I'm here to keep the law so let them go"
But that great deceiver only grinned
As his demons rallied to defend
He said: "The price of justice must be paid!"
So Mercy, rising from his seat
Showed them all his hands and feet
And said: "I am the lamb that was slayed"
Then the demons and their thief
Shook their heads in disbelief
And began to writhe upon the ground
When they saw he held the keys to their ghost town



Then one by one the slaves began to shout
And the captives found their way out
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Then one by one the slaves began to shout
And the captives found their way out
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Then one by one the slaves began to shout
And the captives found their way out
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom

HALLELUJAH!

My Year End Reflections

2016 has been very... (insert whatever and how many adjectives you want) Many of those who started the year won't finish it and many who didn't start it will live to see another year. The political, financial, personal, professional and emotional landscapes for most as 2017 looms may not look promising and at the very least daunting. But hope... Hope is, in my opinion, as necessary to life as air. Hopelessness is a deep pit that can swallow you whole. When our hope is built on shifting, sinking sand it is very easy for us to lose it. But.. MY hope is built on nothing less than Jesus Blood and Righteousness... God is still God. The sun still rises and sets. Jesus is still risen from the dead. So therefore I will always have hope because money, people, things, leaders, bosses, jobs, empires, nations pass away but inspite of our best efforts to destroy and eradicate God from our world HE STILL LIVES and HIS PROMISES are still TRUE . I dare not trust the sweetest

Hagar: The Original Side Chick

Side Chick culture is rampant out here nowadays. It's not only glorified but celebrated. No women should ever be ok with being on the side. We are all worthy to be the one and only as God intended. In God's Economy men are one woman men. If you were supposed to have more than one God would have took more than one rib and made more than one Eve. So even though side chicks are fashionable these days the consequences can be devastating. Take it from the original side chick: Hagar. Now if you don't know the story of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar read up on it here . But in a nutshell, God told Abraham who was a very old man that he would have a child and the nation of Israel would come through that child. His very old wife Sarah didn't see how that was possible with her so she concocted a plan to make God's plan happen. Note : God doesn't need help btw. So she sent Hagar to have sex with her husband and get pregnant. Which she did. Now this isn't a tradit
