YOU RAISED THE BAR

When they said 
You raised the bar, 
I thought it was all candy. 
Now we are striving to cross the bar
Like it's fenced with barb wire
I used to be a rebel
Locked behind Satan's bar
Till I learned about
Your journey to hades
And the come back with all the keys
Now my chains are broken and forever free
Not a temporary freedom on bail
But you paid for my past, present and eternal freedom 
I'm not trying to live like you 
Cause that's just unrealistic expectation
I just strive to be the me
You cut the veil to give unlimited VIP access
Now I live everyday with gratitude
Not because everything is going rosy
On this side of the Kingdom
But because no matter what happens 
I'm always loved and cherished
As a Son and Joint-heir to the Throne
And also cause my advocate & counsellor
Has been walking in me much closely lately
So I'm grateful!

The War Within

Daily I’m at war with myself

A war that chose me

Not because of my doings

But just because I’m human

A spiritual war over my soul and mind

Some days I win

Other days I learn

But one thing is sure

Even in the mist of it all

The Peace of Christ Jesus

Which surpasses all understanding

Keeps my heart and soul together.🤍🕊

THE GOOSE OF THE MORNING

A special poetry collaboration between MrChrislove™ & Desoba
It's in the warm cocoon of my shell
Nestled to the river by my Abba
It's in the secure protection of His presence
Wading off harm as i hatch into His image
It's in His steps that I find mine 
It's in Him that I know who I am
My  true identity In Christ Jesus
Understanding  the inheritance of the Saints 
Thousands of souls perishing daily 
Because we are too scared to be 
The goose of the morning
On the street of this wicked generation we are living 
Though we've been called 
To shine in the midst of the darkness
And as salt that prepare and preserve the earth
For my king’s coming
From my waddling feets to my gurgling quacks
My steps gain strength and my voice depth
And with vigorous awakening,
I arise to the dawn of the morning.
Ready to run the race set before me, 
Ready for the migration ahead. 
I am anything but afraid 
For my identity makes me walk in the enemy’s territory
they have been crippled like scarecrows with handless hands
I glean on the greenest of planes 
For a table has already been set before me 
I thread like royalty on dangerous roads 
For my Abba’s angels have charge over me.
Like a Queen, slowly I walk 
Radiating my splendor and glory of identity
I am far from pride or stupidity 
I am a symbol of  courage and grace 
I am the goose of the  morning.

Love Lasts Forever

Love is as strong as death
Yet love is stronger than death
Because love conquered death
Through the death on the Cross
Many waters cannot quench love
Nor can the flood drown it
For love parted the Red Sea and Jordan River
And the fire of love licked the Overflowing drench of water
If a man will give all his wealth
And even his body to be burned
Yet all his gifts and sacrifices would be despised
Because he hath not a relationship with love
You can build the Great Wall of China with cedar
Or send the Union Army to keep guard
Even roll stones over your heart against love
Love is spirit and sharper than two-edged sword and will pierce through it all 
You may have a thousand servants
And your garden blossom like the tree planted by the river of waters
It will all fade away but the Word of Love stands forever 
And love covers a multitude of sins
So while men chase after beauty that fades 
And some charms- that's deceitful
Keep your gaze on love 
For love is the greatest of all and lasts forever.

WILL YOUR ANCHOR HOLD?

Will your anchor holds

When the tempest rage?

When storms of life are thundering on

Will you still be standing

When all said and done?

Are you properly anchored

On the Rock of Ages

Or your anchor rot with ages?

– – – – 

Are you anchored on the rock of Ages or your anchor rot with ages?

Who is in your boat?

Is the Prince of Peace

Your master in your journey of life?

Or you are serving mammon

The god of your belly?

Do you trust in your horses and chariot

And the arms of flesh?

Or you look up to the Heavens

And depend on “I Am” – the Good Shepherd?

– – – –

Life is constantly changing

But is your faith fixed on his steadfast love?

There is a time to be filled

And a time to be thirsty

But those who drink from his cup

Shall never thirst again

For he will be in them a fountain of water

Springing up into endless life.

Is your treasures stored on the earth

Where moth and rust destroy

And policies and tweets depreciate it?

Join our team, lay your treasures on above

Where no moth, rust, Tweet or government

For where your treasures are, there be your heart

And your heart will fail you not by the news.

– – – –

Are you tired and weary with the burden of life?

Come to Jesus – the Burden Bearer

Confess your sins and ask him for forgiveness

Declare with your mouth: Jesus is Lord

Believe in your heart that God raised him from death

And he will save and give you rest

Write your name in the Lamb’s Book of Life

And Anchor you through the storms of life.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐖𝐞 𝐊𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝

Those that needed love killed love

Yet the love they killed keeps loving them

We shed the blood of love

Yet stains of the blood of love cleanse us

The love we did great injustice against

Keeps speaking mercy and justice for us

We break all laws, destroy images of love

Abuse the likenesses of love

Desecrate the institutions of love

Yet love gives us rest at night

And wakes us up in the morning.
