Scripture Proven

scripture proven
Yes I was a typical boy 
Yes the flash was dominating over me
Yes ,a drunkard ,sexual immorality eish a smoker
Oh no what kind of person am I?
God Help me see myself the way you see me

scripture proven
I cannot live a holy life its not possible
Its hard and not fun
It can make me dull
Wait !!
Where do I get all this so called facts of mine?
They aren't  facts
Rather they are excuses cast upon me by da evil
One to make me keep on traveling the path of the lost
Lost ! Yes I was lost
I was stupid
I was ignorant
I knew where the truth lied but too busy to seek it
Busy
Busy fulfilling the desires of the flash
Flash ! .....oh u mislead me 
Always seeking this n that n never satisfied
Satisfied ..u always ask for more sin
Sin oh yes its over between me n u
U
U tortured me enough
Enough !
yes enough is enough
I'm sick 
Sick n tired of being sick n tired
My scar 
My scar shall become my star 
My trial 
My trial will be my triumph
My test shall be my testimony

scripture proven
In god we find everlasting joy
I had everything My flash n mind desired yet my life was empty
What could it be?
What else do I need ?
I'm thirsty
Oh god help me
I'm a typical boy

scripture proven
I'm not of this world
All I feed the flash will never be enough
Scripture proven 
Seek first the kingdom of god n the rest shall be provided
Ask me I know
Typical boy? No tropical boy through god
Gorgeous-ness ? No righteousness is better

scripture proven
We are spiritual beings we should desire spiritual
Things
There's more to life than parties n fun
I was seeking the truth
I was empty
I was lost
Alter call by the PASTOR
Heart pumping hard
Should I go ! Should I stay I'm in control either way
I responded

scripture proven
Once you experience god your life will never be the same
I become a different person
I became better
I'm not saying I'm righteous or holy
But I'm edging u try him
Try him 
Him
God almighty
The provider
The healer
Redeemer

scripture proven
 You  just enjoying your youth-ness 
Okay go ahead 
You'll  be judged on your own 
Now u know the truth 
Don't be ignorant
Yes u 
God is waiting 4 u to say yes 
Yes ................ 

scripture proven
Yes I'm a new person 
I'm a spiritual being
I'm born again
I'm renewed

scripture proven
I'm proof
And all I can say is I love him 
Scripture proven
I'm grounded n rooted in the word

scripture proven
No one is better will all seeking to be more like our father
We all  worship ,repent and pray for forgiveness of our dirty deeds

scripture proven
Proven
roven.      Ven.       Vele I'm not ashamed
I rest my case
Case 
Yes 
I repent
While u neglect
I love u O-LORD

Pretty-Awesome

Pretty awesome

The unexplainable love I have for you
Pretty awesome

Love is a sacrifice as they always say 
And I believe them
Can I give/show love if I'm filled with hate?
Can I care if I choose to avoid my emotions?
Can I?
Pretty awesome 

Its pretty amazing how we choose to fall 4 the useless people who always hurt us and who never give something in return

Pretty amazing how we depend on other people 4 our own happiness, pretending that they are the source of our joy 
Are they?
Pretty awesome how some of us choose to look at life at a different angle n luckily see the world 4 what it really is!!!

Pretty awesome how the truth can set us free but yet we undermine the power of its deliverance 
Oh yes being ignorant it’s fun 4 some of u 
Yes breaking the rules it’s considered having fun 4 some of u
Yes you don't give a.... Of what people say or think of you 

Pretty awesome how you see your own stupidity and still entertain it 
Yet pretty damn stupid how ignorant you are to the truth 

So pretty amazing 4 u to see how  some people were set free  ,how they changed and how different and away they are from the past ,how they share their testimony ,them telling u how the truth shall n definitely can set u free

It’s going to be pretty stupid of you to avoid and overlook the words I speak to you 
Don't try to change the truth because you will end up deriving your own ending

Pretty awesome how he paid the ultimate prize 4 our sins, how he gave us salvation

Pretty damn disgusting how u can be given such gifts for your own good and u turning them down coz u think u know better!
First of all who gave u that little knowledge u think you have 

Oh lost souls your king is longing 4 u
It’s pretty awesome that he still wants us as his children judging from how we disobey

Truth hurts doesn't it? But I guess what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger
 
The unexplainable love I have for you
Pretty awesome

Thank you 4 being my father
My lord and saviour
My source of joy and happiness 
4 I know u will never let me down
Because u always keep your promises
4 you are the same yesterday, today and forever

Oh its pretty awesome how pretty awesome you're pretty awesome to your creation
Help us to love the way you love
Give as much as you give 
4 we strive to be more like you
And we can have all we desire only by faith

The unexplainable love I have for you Jesus Christ
Pretty awesome

..................Michael (faith)

A wise man once said
"It's better to die believing and find out there is no god
than die not believing and find out that there is a god" !
WHAT!!!!

Sound the trampet of zion!
all of a sudden u repent?
dont pretend because you hear that "HE" is coming soon

stupid , your FATHER know your heart
what's your intentions? what's your plan? 
to repent in the last hours?

"He" knows the plans of the heart without you admitting to em
Learn to love your father they way he loves you ,pray on it
meditate on it .......love ... love ....he'll fill ur heart with love

Dont read "it" like u reading a news paper
Pray to understand ,meditate on it and read more of  it
Have it as breakfast , lunch and dinner or maybe a snack

lol....A wise and glorious man once said
"GO to the EAST,WEST,SOUTH the NORTH and tell em i love em"
