CONQUER

CONQUER


MY FLESH CRAVES HONOR AND SEEKS TO DISHONOR
BUT MY FLESH AND BLOOD FAILED ME I NEEDED A BLOOD DONOR
KILL THAT IN ME THAT LOVES TO WANDER MENTALLY
AND SQUANDER THE SQUANDERER THE HIDES UNDER INSECURITIES
OVER ALL THESE I CONQUER, I CONQUER, CONQUER
SIEZE MY FLESH, PLACE IT UNDER ARREST, CHAIN ‘EM
THROW AWAY THE KEY TO DISEASES THAT ARE STRAINING MY PROGRESSION
BECAUSE OF BITTERNESS ROOTED IN REJECTION AND SPIRITUAL RECESSIONS,
MY BLESSING IS DELIVERANCE AND LOOKING MORE LIKE MY FATHER
OVER ALL THESE I CONQUER, I CONQUER, CONQUER
AND WHY AT TIMES DO I LOVE MY FUTURE HUSBAND MORE THAN MY ETERNAL MATE?
CRUCIFY THIS MINDSET, ONLY YOU WONT FORSAKE,
DAYDREAMING OF MY MATE? BUT CAN’T MEDITATE
THIS DISGUSTS ME, THAT I WANT TO EAT OF THIS PLATE, WAITER? CHECK PLEASE
MY OWN RIDICULOUSNESS WON’T INFEST ME, CHECKMATE  MY FLESH CUZ I’M A SINGLE MESS
OVER ALL THESE I CONQUER, I CONQUER, CONQUER
BUT HOW? BECAUSE OF THE ONE WHO PREVAILed
THROUGH 3 NAILS, TORN VEIL NOW I CAN SLEEP WELL
HE WAS PRE, BEFORE, ANY OTHER god AVAILED
SOME WONT GET THIS CUZ MOST RHYMERS ON SOME OL POST-TELL THEN THEY GO TELL!
THEY RUNNING BEHIND THE WORLDS COAT TAILS AND  CULTURE AND GO TELL
KINGDOM PRIEST WE PRE-TELL, WHAT HAPPENS IN THE HEAVENLIES SO THAT THE WORLD WILL SEEK THE WELL
THAT WON’T RUN DRY, EVERY DAY MY FLESH DIES,
SUBMITS TO THE MASTER, NO MORE BEING CRAFTY
CUZ CHRIST COMING FOR A BRIDE WITH NO ACNE
PAUSE……AND PONDER….
 OVER ALL THESE I CONQUER, I CONQUER, CONQUER
I SERVE THE GREATEST WONDER, HE TRIUMPHS OVER ALL, THE JAW DROPPER,
I CALL HIM THE SHOCK AND AWE, SOME WONDER…
HOW CAN ONE BE THE MOST FAMOUS WHEN HE DIDN’T COME IN HIS OWN NAME BUT THE NAME OF THE FATHER?
MY FLESH WILL HONOR YOU, YESHUA, YOUR HONOR

NO-SALT SEASONINGS!

So last night I went to sleep about 1am wayyyy to early so of course so I began to think about 'seasonal relationships'. I'm basically sharing my thoughts so here I go lol. Often on social networks I hear people, and even myself, say some friends are 'seasonal'. I agree to a certain extent. At the same time during some of those friendships the parties involved make a covenant with each other. As I am growing more I'm understanding how serious covenant is to God. It's not something that is easily broken or dismissed. So what am I saying? I'm saying that we say things like 'that was a seasonal friendship, God had to remove her/him from my life'. Are we really saying that 'I can't deal with this person' 'I give up on them' 'She/he is not loveable so I'm out'??? Are we covering up the fact that we lack real, true, faithful, loyal, 'through different types of weather' endurance? Are we covering up the fact that we don't know how to love??? When something/someone doesn't look like the love that is pictured in our life are we just 'covering it up' by saying....'It's okay God for me to leave this friendship/covenant because it is seasonal'?

Really think about it? We didn't leave that person when we needed them! When our marriage was in trouble, when our self esteem was low, when we doubted our purpose, when freaking was more satisfying than worship, when we didn't have a job, when we needed prayer, when no one understood, when our children didn't act like they knew God, when you doubted you could provide, when mustard seed faith was only a hope!!!! We didn't say those friends were seasonal when we needed what they had to offer!!!! Were they seasonal when we needed prayer and they did just that??

Now that some of use have got a little bit of our purpose, the kids are alright, the children are calling, the job said 'yes', we get spirit filled, got a lil money, marriage is fresh, your prayer life is pretty good, etc etc now that same friend who labored in the spirit is now 'SEASONAL'??? I don't know. Sounds a 'wishy washy' to me. Now that their character, attitude, and or behavior may not be 'Christ-like' they are a hinderance. o_O They're all of a sudden 'seasonal'. *shrugs* Maybe we're seasonal...in and out of peoples lives. Maybe we're not consistent. Maybe we don't know how to love consistently through all seasons. Just maybe!

We must build relationship that have salt in them! That can be preserved and endure. Something that doesn't loose its flavor! Time out for 'no salt seasonal' relationship. Because so many of our relationships/friendships don't have any salt-when it begins to taste bland and ordinary we blame God like 'well you know some people just can't go with me to the next level' and that's kinda true but are you the reason that they can't go? Did you break covenant with them? How do you know if you broke covenant? If the other person didn't know they were seasonal. In the natural if you want to end an agreement with a company prematurely you must let them know but that doesn't mean there won't be additional fees. Some of what we call 'seasonal' is us breaking covenant prematurely because we don't understand how to love.

This what I was meditating on at 5am this morning....yeah exactly!!!!!!!! I didn't do a exegesis of every thought I shared...I'm just simply sharing :). Hopefully this will help a bit.

'Another Letter To My Dad'

Hey Dad :-),

I missed you this past week. Most people say I'm strong, and I may be, but a baby girl still loves her father. That's funny to me because I've don't even know you. I had many moments when I wished all I had was your shoulder to cry on. Yes, many tears were shed last week.



Finals are coming up and this semester has been hard with work, school, ministry, military, music, friends, and family---oh and myself lol. Plus last week was one of those times where being single got on my nerves. It was okay okay eventually. I have great friends who love me.



Though I missed you, trust I rested in God and He provided great comfort and faith. God, Abba Father told me He was with me, that He loves me when others reject me, that I'm a rare diamond that He designed beautifully, that even though I've been single for almost 8 years my value is great in Him, and that His plans are for me to prosper. I hope you're doing okay though. I really hope you're taking care of my siblings because I'm well.

Until next time, Ciao
Your Baby Girl
