I will wait for you

I usually post original pieces here, but this is a poem that is too deep not to share!

It's especially relevant to all the single folk but also to those in relationships who aren't completely sure they are with the right person.

By Janette Ikz ... "I will wait for you"

So it seemed, that it was cool, for everyone to be in a relationship but me..
So I took matters into my own hands… and ended up with him
Him who displayed the characteristics of a CHEATER, a LIAR, an ABUSER, & a THIEF
So.. why was I surprised when he broke into my heart?
I called 911, but I was cardiac arrested for aiding and abetting,
Cause it was ME who let him in…
Claiming we were “just friends”..

It was already decided for me by the first date, that even if he wasn’t!
I was gonna make him ‘The One’..
You know… I was tired of being alone,
And I simply made up in my mind, that it was about that time so I decided to drag him along for the ride,
Cause I was always the bridesmaid & never the bride..

A virgin in the physical, but mentally just a grown woman on the corner in heat!
Who was tired of the wait!
So I was gonna make him ‘The One’.

He had a… form of Godliness… but not much..

But hey, hey I can change him! So (honey) I’ll TAKE him, I mean he’s close… enough

Ready to sell my aorta for a quarter, not knowing the value of its use to me
Arteries so clogged with MY will, it blocked HIS Will from flowing through me
So, I thank Christ that His blood pressure gave this heart an attack,
That flatlined my obscured vision, put me flat on my back
Through my ignorance He soared,

Through my sternum He sawed & cracked open my chest
TO transplant Psalm 51:10
A new heart & a renewed right spirit within!
So now I fully understand,
Better yet I thoroughly comprehend,
How much I NEED to wait… for You.

See, the bad thing is that I knew he wasn’t you from the beginning..
Cause in the beginning was the Word
And he didn’t even sound or shine like Your Son
Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks,
And all he could whisper was sweet, empty nothings –
Which meant NOTHING.
He couldn’t even pray when I NEEDED him to
Asking him to fast would be absurd!
So forget about being cleansed & washed with water through the Word…

But I know you.. ♥
You were already praying for me

Even never having met me

Let me assure you, I will wait for you.

I will no longer date, socialize or communicate with carbon copies of you

To appease my boredom or to quench my thirstiness I have for attention

And short-lived compliments from ‘sorta kindas’.

You know…. He ‘sort kinda’ right, but ‘sorta kinda’ wrong?

His first name LUKE,
His last name WARM.

I, I won’t settle for false companionship
I won’t lay in the embrace of his arms,
Attempting to find some closeness,
But never feeling so far apart cause, I just wanna be held
Cause ♫”All I gotta do is Say” No!
NO more ‘almost sessions’ of ‘almost coming close’
Passing winks & buying drinks,
"I’ma, I’ma, I’ma flirt!"♫
Who flirts with the ideology of,
‘Can you just tell me how much I can get away with & still be saved?’
NO more.

I’ll stay in my bed… alone, and write poems, about how I will wait for you
He won’t even come close,
Our fingers won’t even interlock
We won’t even exchange breath
Cause I have thoughts that I’ve ‘saved as’ in a file that God has only equipped you to open.
I will no longer get weighted down,
From so-called friends & family talks,
About the concern for my biological clock
When I serve the Author of Time.
Who is NOT subject to time,
But I’M subject to Him,

He has the ability to STOP, FAST FORWARD, PAUSE, or REWIND at any given time…
So if we could role play,

You would be Abraham & I would be Sara

Or you can be Isaac & I can be Rebecca – a servant’s answered prayer

I am bone of your bone, flesh of your flesh,
Made up of your rib Adam!
And once we meet, like electrons
I will be bound to your nucleus, completely indivisible atom.
We even speak the same math: 1 + 1 + 1 = 3, which really equals 1 if you add Him.
We were all created in His image,
But you have the ability to reflect, project & even detect the Son.

If I were to explain what you looked like,
You would have to look like a star,
A son of the Son..
I would gain energy simply from the light on me.
I would need you , in order to complete my photosynthesis
I await your revelation, but once again from the genesis, I will wait for you ♥

And I will know you… because when you speak I will be reminded of Solomon’s wisdom,
Your ability to lead will remind me of Moses,
Your faith will remind me of Abraham,
Your confidence in God’s Word will remind me of Daniel,
Your inspiration will remind me of Paul,
Your heart for God will remind me of David,
Your attention to detail will remind me of Noah,
Your integrity will remind me of Joseph,
And your ability to abandon your own will, will remind me of the disciples,
But Your ability to love selflessly & unconditionally will remind me of Christ.

But I won’t need to identify you by any special Matthews or any special Marks,
Cause His word will be tattoed all over your heart.

And you will know me, and you will find me,
Where… the boldness of Esther meets the warm closeness of Ruth.
Where the hospitality of Lydia is aligned with the submission of Mary,
Which is engulfed in the tears of a praying Hanna.
I will be the one, drenched in Proverbs 31… waiting for you.

But to my Father, my Father who has known me before I was birthed into this earth
Only if you should see fit…
I desire Your will above mine,
So even if you call me to a life of singleness,
My heart is content with YOU – the One who was sent.

YOU are the greatest love story ever told,
The greatest story ever known

You are forever my judge & I’m forever Your witness
And I pray that I’m always found on a mission about my Father’s business
Oh, I will always be Yours!

And I will always wait for You Lord, more than the watchmen wait for the morning…
More than the watchmen wait for the morning… I WILL WAIT ♥

"Waiting time is not wasted time. There's a lesson you can learn while you wait. To wait is to improve yourself, more and more.."

 

"How long you're willing to wait places a value on what you're waiting for."

Establishing connection...

One of my fondest childhood memories is Christmas in 1998 when my brother and I got “Walkie Talkies” for Christmas. We were both so fascinated by the “magic” of the Walkie Talkies; how they worked and how we could be far from each other but still be able to hear each other. The trouble with the Walkie Talkies was however, that they had a very short radius… I think you could only be within 20 or so metres away from each other, so if either me or my brother moved too far away all we’d be able to hear from the other end was  “Shhhhhrrrrrrr”.

The other thing about the Walkie Talkies was that if my brother and I tried to say something at the same time, neither one of us would be able to hear the other.
Needless to say how much of a disaster our first few attempts with the Walkie Talkies were!

Sometimes, our walk with God is similar to trying to communicate via Walkie Talkie. God is the same, yesterday, today and tomorrow. He never changes and He never moves away from us. Whatever “shhhhhrrrrr” we hear coming from our conversations with God are because WE have moved to far from Him.
The Bible talks about how sin separates us from God (Isaiah 59:2).Our actions that are displeasing to God, if they go unrepented for cause the rift between us and Him. But through grace and forgiveness, we can try to re-establish that relationship with Him

Another thing about our relationship with Him is that so often because of the noise and distractions around us, and because of our own stubbornness we do not give HIM a chance to speak. Sometimes we are so determined and adamant to have Him hear what we need to say that we don’t take time to just listen to what He has to say. The odds of you hearing what God has to say when you are speaking too are very slim. Give Him a chance.

So, how do you try to get back in contact when you feel so far and detached from Him?

1. Establish a connection -- reach out and make conscious efforts to connect with Him. Talk to Him, be honest and tell Him exactly how you feel, whether you’re angry, sad, whatever, He can handle it! :)
2. Read His word  -- Sometimes we are distant from Him because we don’t really know who He is. Get to know Him and  the Bible is a great way to really get insight on who He is. Not only is it a source of comfort, but it also contains His promises for you.
3. Be honest and admit to your sins and shortcomings -- we all sin #FACT  and no one’s perfect : #FACT. God knows this and that’s why He doesn’t stop loving us because we sin. He may be disappointed but He still loves us and He knows that it’s in our nature to mess up.
4. Repent -- turn away from wrong doing and make concerted efforts not to do it again    
5. Talk and fellowship with others -- it’s important to have people you are able to talk to. Sometimes just by taking about something we get better understanding of what we go through, but above all, we need to remember that life is far too short for us to learn from aall of our own mistakes and "fellowshipping" helps us learn from other people’s mistakes, experiences and testimonies.
6. Be immersed in His presence -- attend church regularly, invest in good Christian music, adopt a constant devotional plan or Bible reading plan.

Music, media and Freemasons : Of "Secret" Societies and Freemasonry

This was sent through to me last week by a friend:

New World Order of Lucifer
It is a sad reality, but true, this world has been given to hands of the fallen angel called Lucifer and his demons by those in power, they keep their societies and plans a secret because they know people would not allow their control to continue if they knew what is really going on, they have been programming the world for years in so many different ways that people haven’t even noticed the change. Our generation was brought up in the middle of these degeneration of society, so in the minds of the masses, is normal to see the detriment of the worlds cultures and to see how all governments, religions and armies are fusing into one. Ever since we were young, we’ve heard of things going bad and only getting worse, so that has become our mind set, making us think is normal for the economy to be bad, that is normal to see and hear of wars, as well as the growth in sexual perversion, it has become normal for people to be homosexuals and so on. This is a different world we are living in, brought to you by the snake who deceives the whole world by using the Illuminati who come to you as wolves in sheep clothing

Illuminati: Hip Hop Industry
I want to show how the Illuminati (which involves many secret societies, Masonry being one of the biggest and most important ones for the so called "elite"), have come to gain control over the masses by infiltrating the media and the music industry, creating a new culture of sheople which are too busy working, eating and watching TV, to be asking any questions, creating a society that will receive they New World Order with open arms, to come to be exterminated by it, in the process of implementation.


Puppets of Illuminati
One of the favourite ways of control and infiltration is the use of "puppets" by the Illuminati. Most rappers and singers become part of the problem instead of the solution by allowing demons and the “Elite” to use them as mere puppets, helping the few to control and kill the many. Some allow themselves to be used because of fear of the implications of going against these devils, (as many have in the past before being “terminated”, such as Tupac Shakur, Michael Jackson, among many others); the great majority though, are part of it because they have more love for the money and fame than they do for their brothers and sisters,

1 Timothy 6:10

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

Selling your soul
Selling your soul to devil, may be a joke to many people, but is something that is literally going on in the world, not only the in Music industry but in Hollywood and every area of work that is controlled by them, remember that they called themselves the Illuminati cause they believe to be enlightened by the one who carries the light, also known as Lucifer, he portraits himself as a god to this people and they believe it, because of the power that has been given to him for a short period of time.

2 Corinthians 11:14

And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.

Perfectly Possessed
All these secret societies go through different rituals of initiation during which the body of the initiate is possessed by demons, these spirits get more and more power over each individual with each ritual they involved themselves, in order to ascend to a higher level or degree in each of their respective secret societies, until the person reaches a point of being “Perfectly Possessed”.

Blood Sacrifices in Hip Hop
It isn’t necessary for you to go through a blood sacrificial ritual to open up yourself to this demons, but it is sometimes asked of many of these people wanting fortune and fame, sometimes knowingly they accept, some not knowing, but by their actions and words give power to those above them to make the ritual happen for them, in order for the artist to get whatever it is that they asked for or have been offered, this is the reason why most artists once they get to a peak in their career they lose a love one, such as was the case with Kanye West’s Mother, 2Pac, Aaliyah and other famous people and relatives.

Satanic Hip Hop
Hip Hop started as an art for people in the struggle to express themselves, a voice for the voiceless, it was created as great way to inform and fight all the oppression going on, by those powers, oppression which ended up infiltrating the movement of Hip Hop turning it into what it is now, nothing but garbage and propaganda.
Another artist showing signs of satanic worship is Lil’ Wayne and this is obvious when you listen to some of his tracks, where he confesses not having a soul anymore by saying “when I look into the mirror in the morning I don’t see anything”, just like vampires are portrayed in movies, also by the pictures of Wayne doing the hand sign of Baphomet, the horns, while worshiping demons. There is also the guy who many other rappers call a snitch, 50 Cent, subliminally telling his fans to murder for money saying “do it now under my hypnosis” and claiming the mark of the devil 666.

Demon Possession through Music
A perfectly possessed person or in this case Hip Hop artist, will write subliminal messages without noticing it himself, messages that will induce a person to do anything or act in a certain way. The possessed individual will even record songs that when played in reverse, a diabolical message can heard. By letting whatever spirit is in them, write their songs, in the form of inspiration, which they receive after selling their soul, like Lil Wayne also mentioned, having sold his soul to stop his mental drought or lack of inspiration.

Eminem is possessed by the spirit called “Slim Shady”, as you may know, his latest single called 3 a.m.is clear on the matter of possession, in the video he gets possessed and used by evil spirits to go and kill people at 3 in the morning, the time when devils have more power

John 6:63

It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

The words we speak are spirit, so this means that the words these men rap, are evil spirits, demons that
will haunt people and even get to have control over them, after the person or fan has been hearing the songs over and over again, having their mind subliminally changed to the thoughts given by the spirits written on the lyrics. Something that is even more dangerous, is singing those words repeatedly , letting those words of curse come out of their own mouths subjecting themselves to these forces, having very sad consequences, like the case of the guy who killed his entire family around 4am, right after yelling the Eminem song and screaming “I am Satan, I am the Antichrist, I’m gonna kill you” to his wife, before killing her and his 2 children, then later when realizing what he had done, he called 911 to report the murder and turned himself in, because he had no idea why he did it.

Proverbs 18:21

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.

We must be careful with the words that we speak, for this reason also with the names we call upon when praying, because many of these evil spirits are called by many of the names people use and they all serve their god Lucifer aka Zeus for the Greeks

Exodus 23:13

“And in all that I have said to you, be circumspect and make no mention of the name of other gods, nor let it be heard from your mouth.

The one eye on top of the pyramid is one of Lucifer‘s symbols, also called the Eye of Horus, and is used by the Illuminati.
he words of the famous artists of the Reggae genre Vybz Cartel, who is one those puppets to have come all the way to the 33rd Degree and Freemasonry as he claims in his lyrics, bragging of the fact that Masons kill people at any time of the day and are able to hide it thanks to their power over the media and many other “powerful” men, I also find it very interestingly, that in the same song he makes a mention of the hour 3am, leaving no doubt of who is his god and the fact that he is a possessed
----

Knowledge is power people, BE EMPOWERED.

How much more provocative can you get?

I LOVE music. I can listen to almost any kind of music, from jazz to soul, RnB to Afro pop…almost anything! I’m pretty open minded when it comes to music. BUT it makes me so MAD when artists with sinister agendas aren’t ashamed to display their rather creepy and unsanctified acts so openly with no sense of remorse.

I have tried not to get caught up in Hollywood showbiz news frenzy because I felt it was better to not get involved and let people live their lives as long as they don’t affect me. But I feel that by keeping quiet, I am in a way enabling what I know is wrong. The devil uses our fear of man to further his kingdom. By expressing my feelings, may I be able to help somebody.

I bumped into an article about an artist who was burnt in a satanic ritual. She referred to the devil as her “dark prince” whom she needed to meet through the ritual.

The devil won’t always come to you with two horns and a 3-pronged fork. He sometimes uses more subtle ways to snare people into his traps, but lately he has upped his game and he is no longer just using subliminal methods to garner support. He and his followers are now a lot more provocative and fearless.

With lyrics such as these:

“When he comes to me, I am ready
I'll wash his feet with my hair if he needs
Forgive him when his tongue lies through his brain
Even after three times, he betrays me...

...I'll bring him down, bring him down, down
A king with no crown, king with no crown
In the most Biblical sense,
I am beyond repentance
Fame hooker, prostitute wench, vomits her mind
But in the cultural sense
I just speak in future tense
Judas kiss me if offensed,
Or wear a condom next time

I wanna love you,
But something's pulling me away from you
Jesus is my virtue,
Judas is the demon I cling to
I cling to.”

(**bear in mind Judas is the one who betrayed Jesus)

AND images such as these:

Tell me, how much more provocative can one get? How can this be OK? How can we accept this?

It’s sad that a lot of the artists who seemed to have a lot of potential are caught up in a whole lot of shady stuff. I mean, talented individuals who could’ve made it big in the music industry anyway are caught up in dark and eerie dealings. What annoys me about their music is how catchy some of the songs are. I remember being in a taxi a few weeks ago and I heard this song on the radio. I thought to myself “WOW, awesome song.” It was my first time hearing the song, but before the song was even finished I was already singing along to it. I quickly googled the lyrics, and one of the first results that popped up linked that particular artist to the Illuminati and mind control. It freaked me out because the song sounded pretty “innocent” because she was singing about money and making the world dance.

There are so many hidden symbolisms in so many songs, album covers, television programmes and so on, and it's never "just art" or "just music". Hearing some of the tracks that are being released makes me feel such an unsettled feeling and I cannot imagine how millions and millions of people, especially teenagers are able to listen to some of these songs and not feel icky. It’s sad how so many artists have sold their souls to the devil in order to get fame and fortune. It’s sad that they don’t realise that these “riches” will only last for their natural life, if that and that you cannot put a price on your life.

I think over time, we have been numbed to so many things. Think about it, some things that were completely unacceptable 10, even five years ago have slowly become more and more acceptable and OK and in a lot of cases are now the norm.
What usually happens is, the first time you are exposed to something provocative, it shocks you. The second time, you’re a little less shocked. Third time you begin to like it, fourth time you REALLY like it and the fifth time, you probably start experimenting with it. This is usually the reason a lot of music channels repeat the same songs over and over again. It’s not because they don’t have anything better to play, but they are often trying to numb people’s receptors and weaken the filters that help us separate right from wrong.

Psalms 37:1 talks about not envying the wicked or those who do wrong. Never ever look at someone else’s wealth, popularity or status and wish you had what they have because you don’t actually know what price they had to pay to get where they are.

Apple seeds = apple trees

"You reap what you sow"

If you plant apple seeds, eventually you will reap apples. You can’t plant watermelon seeds and expect an apple tree to sprout out of the ground. It’s the same thing with our actions, words and thoughts: what you “put in” is what you’ll get out. This includes the people whose counsel you seek, what you watch on TV and the music you listen to. Stop telling yourself “it’s just a song, it won’t affect me” because IT WILL, thanks to a little thing called the sub-conscious!
There were times in the past when I also had the same mentality and I told myself it was just a song and it would never affect me and that I could listen to whatever I wanted to listen to and it’d never affected me, until I could sing all the words of a particular song from a to z, without even thinking about it… a song that I had probably only heard once or twice.
On the subject of music, ever noticed how certain songs evoke a certain behavior in you? Ha, I have seen some girls going BUCK wild when certain songs come on… and I mean WILD… at the same time, ever noticed how people act a certain way when Hillsong for example is playing.? So clearly music influences SOMETHING in our behaviour.

The brain is a powerful muscle and a silent worker. You don’t always feel or hear it processing information or at work, but it works so much more than you can imagine. For example, I have been driving for close to 5 years now and when I decide to go somewhere, it do not consciously say:

"Right! Now I’m going to sit in the car, fasten my belt, stick the key in the ignition and turn it, shift gears, turn of the handbrake" etc.

It happens almost without me even thinking about it. So often I arrive somewhere and wonder how I got there – SUBCONSCIOUS in action!

There’s SO much poison in the world lately, especially in the media. Sin is available pretty much at the click of a button. You have to have a very fine filter for your mind. You can tell yourself you will not be affected but it’s like having a mud fight and expecting not to get any mud on you.Be a

ware that things aren’t always as they seem. Don’t just look at things a face value, but look beyond them.

Actions do speak louder than words and what may seem like a meaningless action today, one day YOU WILL REAP. Every action, word and thought is a seed, and like a seed, if cultivated, it’ll sprout, grow and have it’s being in your life.
Don’t sow watermelon seeds expecting apple trees.

::22::

So, today I am officially 22 and a day!
How does it feel? Funny enough I actually FEEL older and it feels good.

I feel the frivolousness of my youth has died,
The care-free attitude of an adolescent has gone with the wind.
I feel a huge amount of responsibility resting on my shoulders, because I am no longer a girl, or a "chick" but developing into the fullness of a woman.
BUT, above all, I feel a huge amount of GRATITUDE; that I have "clocked" another year and I have more and more opportunities to be the best me I can be!
Growing up is actually quite exciting. The feeling of being that much closer to LIVING your dreams... being closer to reaching your destiny and fulfilling your purpose, it's all so exciting!

BUT:

Life doesn't get any easier the higher up the age scale you go! The road here hasn't been easy;

Pain, passion,
Hurt, betrayal,
Sorrow, joy,
Surprise, suspense,
Fear, awe,
Accomplishment, achievement,
Been through them all.

AND: I am STILL STANDING.

So as I enter into another phase in my life, I need His guidance. Psalm 25:4 is where it's at for me and in Him I will trust.

R.E.L.E.A.S.E

What happens when you take a sealed can of Coke, shake it, drop it, stomp on it, drop it again and THEN open it immediately?

I think we all know what will happen; a rather... small, but BIG explosion!

The way we as humans operate is similar to a Coke can. Full of feelings, emotions and a whole lot of other stuff. We often keep those things sealed in or bottled up. We are dropped, shaken, sometimes stomped on, increasing the pressure inside us...THEN...one day, someone decides to "open" us just like the Coke can and ALL HELL BREAKS loose.

Ever wondered why even the strongest, most confident and secure people just CRACK? It's usually because of a lack of a release; a way to let it all out.

God never intended for us to be alone, suffer in silence or build up stress and pressure inside us. That is why God created Eve to be a mate for Adam, that's why we have families, and that's why we are surrounded by BILLIONS of other people in the world and are in direct contact with hundreds if not thousands of people in our lives(unless you are a nomad of course!).

A problem shared, is a problem halved after all. Don't let feelings build up inside. Before the pressure gets too much, find somebody you can "release" to. Cry, shout, scream if you have to, just don't keep it in only to explode like the Coke can one day!
