While Men Slept… ( by Fenny West)

 

While Men Slept…

While Men Slept…
in they crept.
Fiends infiltrated,
Highly camouflaged,
Sowed lawlessness,
Legalised trespass.

Awake, thou sleepest!
See the great evil tempest
See the writing on the wall
Smell the coffee – you all.
Your freedoms are gone
Your dignity is gone.
You can be trampled on
You can be spied on
You can be spirited away.
It is such an Evil Day
Because men slept.

Awake and fight-
Fight the good fight.
Sound the alarm
Of the great harm
Coming to society
Coming to community.
They have come with impunity
Aligned with principalities
Aligned with dignitaries
Aligned with wickedness
And powers In high places

We war not against humans
But against wicked spirits behind them.
We cast down anti-Christ schemes
We cast down humanistic imaginations
We refuse any satanic dress rehearsals
We bar any manifestation while we’re here.
We remind you, the Restraining force is here.
You shall not appear before your time.
We decree it shall not stand in Jesus’ Name
We stand our ground with our face like a flint.
We put on the whole armour of God.
We wield the sword of the spirit – the Word of God.
We repel the powers of darkness and their cohorts.
O Church of God, rise up! Press on and tower.
Satanic forces must back down and cower.

14   Therefore He says: ” Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light.”

Walk in Wisdom

15   See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise,

16   redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

17   Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

Ephe5:14-17

Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that
formed thee from the womb, I [am] the LORD that maketh
all [things;] that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that
spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; {44:25} That
frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad;
that turneth wise [men] backward, and maketh their
knowledge foolish; {44:26} That confirmeth the word of his
servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that
saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities
Isa44 :24-26
The counsel of Ahitophel shall be turned into foolishness
2Sam 15 :31-37

 

The Parable of the Wheat and the Tares

24   Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;

25   but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way.

Matt 13:24-25

Moving From Milk To Meat ( by Fenny West)

Moving From Milk To Meat

Moving From Milk To Meat
Is the perfect will of God.
From learners to teachers
Is God’s desire and passion.

So lay a good foundation
And begin to build an edifice
Of mammoth proportion
One of a lasting legacy.

Study, show yourself approved.
Make your calling, election sure.
Make the most of each moment.
Dig deep, Meditate and review.

Climb the ladder from rung to rung
Making inroads, making progress
Going from glory to glory
And going from strength to strength.

{Heb 5:12} For when
for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one
teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles
of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not
of strong meat. {5:13} For every one that useth milk [is]
unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
{5:14} But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full
age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses
exercised to discern both good and evil.
Chapter 6
{6:1} Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of
Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the
foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith
toward God, {6:2} Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of
laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. {6

18 but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.2 Pet3:18

11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;
14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,
15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head — Christ —
16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. Eph4:11-16

Don’t Be Left Behind ( by Fenny West)

Don’t Be Left Behind

 

Don’t Be Left Behind
Hear the clarion call
The day is far spent
And the night comes
When no man can work.

Don’t be left behind
Hear the Master’s Voice
Sounding an alarm.
Time to make the right choice.
Set before you is life and death
Blessing and cursing
Choose life and live.

Don’t be left behind
Be like the five wise virgins
Ready at His coming.
Be not like the five foolish virgins
Caught unprepared, heady, or not ready.

Don’t be left behind.
As in the Days of Noah
So shall the last day be
It was business as usual
And the ark was closed
And the rains came unabated.
The ark carried away those
Who sought safety in her.
Those who mocked, or delayed
Found it was too late, to their dismay.

Don’t be left behind
As in the Days of Lot
So shall it be in that day.
Many put their fingers in their ears
priding themselves in self-righteousness
Shunning the warning of the Righteous God.
Sodom and Gomorrah went up in flames
And only Lot and his family escaped, just.

Don’t be left behind
The current shaking of the earth
Is enough warning for the wise.
O sleeper, awake! Awake from slumber.
And Christ shall give thee light to see
Come Now into the Ark of our time-Jesus-
The Son of the Living God – our Salvation,
Our Saviour, Sanctification, Righteousness.

1Thess4:16-18, Matt24:37-39, Luke17:26-30, Eph5:14

Divinity in Humanity ( by Fenny West)

Divinity in Humanity

Divinity In Humanity
A Wonder of wonders
From place for His Presence
To a people for His presence

Man became His Headquarters
His earthly Tabernacle
Of His fullness He gave
And of that fullness we received
Grace upon grace, goodness upon goodness,

mercy upon mercy, love upon love –

boundless, infinite, unfathomable.

He moves in us, talks through us
Touches through us, heals through us
Shows His compassion through us
Meets needs through us, reaches out through us,

 can be in many places through us.
What a glorious, wonderful, awesome truth:

divinity in humanity!
Little wonder:
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
“Nothing shall be impossible to you.”
“He is able to do exceeding abundantly far above what we can ask or think or dream of according to the power of God at work in us.”
“It God who works in you, both to will and do according to His good pleasure.”
“Greater is He that is us than he that is in the world.”
“Whoever is born of God, overcomes this world…”
“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God and who are the called according to purpose.”
Who shakk separate us from the love of God? Shall tribulation, or distress, famine, nakedness, peril or sword?
Nay, in all these things, we are more than conquerors.
Therefore, neither death nor life nor angels nor principalities nor powers nor height nor depth nor things present nor things to come shall be able to separate us from the love of Christ which is in Christ Jesus.
Why? Divinity in Humanity!

 

16Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?1Cor3:16

19Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?1Cor6:19

17But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.1Cor3:17

16   And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: ” I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people.”

2Cor6:16

4      You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.1John4:4

“…as He is, so are we in this world.” 1John4:17

16And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. John1:16

Living Above Needs (by Fenny West)

Living Above Needs

Living Above Needs
The will of God
He supplied all our needs
Through Christ our Lord.

All things are  yours
Because you’re Joint-heirs
Joint-heir with the Source
Because you’re God’s heirs.

All that belong to Him
Also belong to you
You belong to Him
And He belongs to You.

So change your mind-set
And seek His Kingdom first
Because all your needs are met
And there’s no need to thirst.

Be a Solution Centre
Be a Game-Changer
Be not self-centred
Be a cheerful giver.

You are abundantly blessed-
Blessed to be a blessing
Given all that you will need
So that you are without need.

 

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, Eph1:3

21 Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours: 1Cor3:21

I Cannot Withhold My Tongue ( By Fenny West)

I Cannot Withhold My Tongue

He is so very generous;
Ever-giving, ever-loving,
So faithful, magnanimous;
Ever-present, never changing.

He is so reliable
Remarkable, indescribable
Unfathomable, and invisible.
He is immortal, eternal
Without blemish, phenomenal.

His beauty is so beyond compare.
His words so soothing, Medicinal
His aura and fragrance just rare
His wisdom, unsearchable, supernatural.

He holds all things together
With His glue, His bond of love.
The same, no matter the weather.
His love is so unfailing; it’s from above.

How shall my tongue withhold His praise?
Why will I not wake up early and adore?
Who or what will stop my hands raised?
Nothing will stop my prostration on the floor.

 

 

Psalms 150: Let All Things Praise the LORD
1 Praise the LORD! Praise God in His sanctuary; Praise Him in His mighty firmament!
2 Praise Him for His mighty acts; Praise Him according to His excellent greatness!
3 Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet; Praise Him with the lute and harp!
4 Praise Him with the timbrel and dance; Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes!
5 Praise Him with loud cymbals; Praise Him with clashing cymbals!
6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD!

Pray Without Ceasing ( by Fenny West)

Pray Without Ceasing

 

Pray without ceasing,

Always believing

That God is faithful,

Merciful, powerful

Exceeding abundantly able

To do far above what you can ask or think or imagine,

according to the power at work in you.

Pray without wavering,

without doubting.

Always trusting in the Most High.

He rewards those who come to Him in faith;

those who diligently seek Him;

Those who trust in His unfailing;

Those who pray in line with His Word.

Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.
10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors.
13 And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one.

For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Matt 6:9-13

Jehovah Shammah ( by Fenny West)

Jehovah Shammah

Jehovah Shammah

The Ever-present Lord

Is Our Refuge, a Very-present help

In times of trouble.

And His presence makes a difference.

Regardless of the fiery burning furnace

We find ourselves, God is always there.

He said, when you go through the fire

The flame will not kindle upon you

You will not burn.

When you go through the waters,

you will not drown, because I have gone before you

to make every crooked place straight.

” Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine.

2      When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.

Isa43:1-2

10Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

Isa41:10

“Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, who sent His Angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and they have frustrated the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they should not serve nor worship any god except their own God!

29   Therefore I make a decree that any people, nation, or language which speaks anything amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made an ash heap; because there is no other God who can deliver like this.”

30   Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego in the province of Babylon.

Dan3:28-30
