METAMORPHOSIS

Metamorphosis is a Greek word which basically means "to transform."  My poetry particularly deals with the concept of Metamorphosis.  How great it is to see how God transforms our lives in order to mold us into the individual He needs to complete the assigned task.  Most of us undergo the steps of the butterfly before becoming that wholehearted, fulfilled and compas-sionate person for Divine Destiny.  The word said, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." 2 Corinthians 5:17 ; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11

Many of us want the benefits and the blessings, but we don’t want the persecutions and the problems. We must realize that pain and suffering, tribulation and trials will come. It is inevitable. Without a test, we have no testimony. No mess, no message.  No pain, no gain.  Suffering comes before miracles. The secret to the servants of Gods’ power is suffering. We must be watchful, alert, prayerful and educated in the word of God for God chooses us out of the furnace of afflictions.

The poetry I write contain prophetic messages embedded within the lines - including warnings, encouragement, praise, worship, and instructions.  Many pertain to real life experiences, some are inspired by ministries worldwide and local, all are birthed from the Holy Spirit.

 

A CALL TO ARMS

VISIONARIES, COME FORTH!

Identification...Revelation...

Intimation...Stimulation.

Gratification...Impregnation.

All visionaries, man your battle station!

Song of Solomon 1:2; Isaiah 54:1; Esther 5:1-8

Calling all arms for envisioned victory!

Fight! Intercede! Make that plea!

Travail and mourn for true prophecy!

Bear down for birth, pray fervently!

Galatians 4:18; Romans 8:26; Micah 4:10; Isaiah 66:8;

II Kings 19:3; Romans 8:26; Exodus 1: 17-19;

Jeremiah 9:17-21

Write down the Vision, make it plain

Be ready to learn and skilled to train

Force not the Vision, just let it come

It’s a call for arms to Gilead’s balm.

Jeremiah 8:22; Habakkuk 2:2

Prepare! Equip! Defense! Attack!

Rise up royal ones and take it back!

Calling all arms to the battlefield!

Visionaries, courageous, holy and real!

Quickly gather to His holy hill!

It’s birthing time, warriors come kneel!

The baby’s coming, our Father’s will!

To be done in the Earth, tarry until!

Quickly gather to His holy hill!

It’s birthing time, warriors come kneel!

Calling all arms to the battlefield!

Visionaries courageous, mighty and real!

Warriors bold and spirit-filled!

Called ones pregnant with destiny?

To birth your Vision, this is the key...

The strategy of birthing intercessory...

Procuring twelve steps to delivery:

Step 1: first, there must be intimacy.

Prayer, Praise and Worship precede victory.

Step 2: the signs of a pregnancy.

A little hard to believe: seek true prophecy.

Step 3: the hair and nails start to grow.

The vision is clearer and you begin to know.

Step 4: the skin and face have a glow.

The success of the vision will start to show.

Step 5: morning sickness makes you queasy.

Eat (study) frequent meals (the word) to make it easy.

Job 23:12; Galatians 6:9

Step 6: fatigue and tiredness, time is near.

Satan tries to wear you out and discourage, but do not fear.

Psalms 27:13/ Proverb 24:10

Step 7: stay close to restrooms for necessary breaks.

Stay close to strong believers, stay away from fakes.

Hebrew 10:25

Step 8: constipation/hormones will slow digestion down.

The vision stands still, seems you’re going around and around.

Psalms 37:7

Step 9: 2nd/3rd trimester, headaches, colds and flu...

Beware of germs of unbelief, let true believers pray with you.

Matthew 18:19

Step 10: Sickness? call your doctor to come back around...

Choose anointed intercessors, people free not down or bound!

Step 11: swelling, fluid and toxic weight gain...

Watch what you do, see, eat, -- does it lift God’s name?

The vision is enlarging, it will increase, expand...

Don’t surrender to the carnal, but to the spiritual man.

Isaiah 54:2; Hebrew 12:1

Step 12: hemorrhoids, backaches, leg cramps, heartburn

Do not force the vision, though it tarry (labor), the head will turn.

Habakkuk 2:2; Psalms 46:10

If you pass these steps, your delivery will come

That vision, that dream, that BABY will be born!

After the vision is born, nourish it and protect..

And remember God did it, never ever forget.

Reader, I pray that you believe, receive, conceive and you will achieve. Amen.

Man your battle stations!!!

A NEW PEOPLE

John saw a new heaven and a new earth

I see a new people and a new birth

Of a peculiar people, children full of might

Transformed in God’s image, Our Father of Light…

Partakers, inheritors of the saints in light

Changed in God’s image, new children of might

A chosen generation translated by Christ

Blameless and harmless sons of God shall rise

In the midst of a crooked and perverse nation

They will be the firstfruits who endured tribulation…

Partakers, inheritors of the saints in light

Changed in God’s image, new children of might

Begotten with the WORD deemed holy creatures

A people illuminated bearing the Father’s features

From glory to glory, they will soon manifest

Angels gather north, east, south and west

Partakers, inheritors of the saints in light

Changed in God’s image, new children of might

John saw a new heaven and a new earth

I see a new people and a new birth

Eph. 5:8; II Cor. 3:38; Phil. 2:5

Col. 1:12-13; James 1:17-18; I Pet. 2:9

Never Stop!

We must be watchful

When we get to the top

We must be careful, wise

For satan will never stop!

WHO CAN FIND A VIRTUOUS MAN?

Who can find a virtuous man?

Where oh where can he be?

Search over land, over the ocean

The mountain and over the sea.

Who can find a virtuous man?

Pure, holy, wise and true

And man of standard and integrity

Who holds a righteous view.

He treats his wife with great respect

He gives his children no neglect

In troubled times he knows no fret

He causes his loved ones no regret

He’s wise in handling all his debt

He prays daily against the evil net.

Who can find a virtuous man?

Where oh where can he be?

Search over land, over the ocean

The mountain and over the sea.

Virtue is moral excellence, goodness

I Surrender

Every sin, every iniquity, every wrong..

Committed against Your holy throne..

Forgive me, cleanse me and purify..

Renew, repair, revive, mortify..

Wash me, cleanse me thru and thru..

I surrender Lord, my all to you..

Take this broken vessel and restore..

I give my soul, mind, body, and heart..

Deep down within to the root..

From the top of my head to sole of foot..

Wash me, cleanse me and make me pure..

Touch me until my righteousness is sure.

Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.  Mark 10:15

BLIND, BALD, BOUND
AND READY TO DIE

Blind, bald, bound and ready to die

Tell us Samson, the mighty man, why?

Your power and strength gone in one day

Because of a woman it was snatched away

Was it her beauty, was it her charm?

How is it that Delilah caused you this harm?

Delilah took control of your soul and mind

And left you bald, then made you blind

Sent you to prison to be chained and bound

Then she never again came back around

This was the wife forbidden you chose

She proved the strongest of all your foes

But now your heart and soul is bruised

Without any doubt, you know you were used

So in your final and last earthly hour

You asked the Father to give back your power

And to your enemy’s unexpected surprise

Your hair grew back before they realize

And just like Christ whom they thought was gone

Had just stepped up to a heavenly zone

The Lord came down and stood up in you

You were not one man, but then became two

The mighty temple you brought to the ground

After this exploit, you were no longer bound

For like Christ you became so ready to die

You destroyed more enemies with just a sigh.

SOAR TO DESTINY

Come soar with Me To Divine Destiny!

‘Tis may be the last season For this opportunity!

Get equipped, Get focused Walk in victory!

Take not any detours But follow after Me!

Like Joshua and Caleb did Let’s conquer the enemy!

Take now your inheritance For ‘tis your Destiny!

Go in Child possess it And then you will see!

It is already yours You’ve won the victory!

Each place your foot treads Already I’ve given Thee!

Come soar! Come tread! Follow Me to Destiny!

MY BROKEN CHILD

My son, my daughter, my broken child

In just a moment, in just a little while

I am bringing you up and taking you out

Up higher, higher upon the mount

Be still, relax, flow in My love

My angels watch over thee from above.

SEARCH ME

Dear Lord search me

Through and through

Cleanse me, wash me

And make me new

If there's envy

In my heart

Renew my soul

And every part

It may be there

And I won't know

Purge with hyssop

From head to toe

Amen.

CORDS, NETS, ALL TESTING MEN

JONAH AND BABYFIED MEN

I’ve said it once and I’ll say again

Who wants to deal with babyfied men

Except for a mama who is full of void

No woman or wife, not even the Lord.

To babyfied Jonah, God said to Go!

Jonah did the opposite telling God "No"

Back to the womb, Jonah was then sent

In the whale’s belly three days spent.

After three days stay in the belly of the whale

Jonah grew quickly to a full-grown male

No running against or running away

Jonah made the trip in just one day.

A babyfied man is a mama’s boy

Responsibility is his very annoy

Babyfied men are not men at all

Real men stand true, great men stand tall.
