Listen to poem:
Chose Love Or Fear
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
1 John 4:18 NIV
God is love
Satan is trying to keep all in fear
Jesus came in perfect love
That we might seek Him to drive out fear
With His spirit to dwell within
Only those which reject Jesus shall fear
Of the punishment to come
Ever wander why this world
Loves confusion, fear and hate
This is where Jesus came to save us from
How many medications will we come up with
To try and make mankind happy
How many different drugs and alcohol
To try and satisfy these impure spirits
Why not call upon Jesus to cast them out
So one might live in love, peace and joy
To set their eyes above
Not on worldly things lusting after things
Of the flesh never to satisfy that void
Please don't rely on this world to help you
But seek the anointing of the spirit
To reveal the truth in God's word
No longer needing teaching from mankind
1 John chp. 3-5 tells so much
Of what's going on around us
It's the same today as then
But getting worse and worse daily
Mankind still living in the first covenant
Trying to live good by the laws not to sin
Instead of the new covenant
Where Christ dwells within to mold one
Pulling one away from this world
With a new vision of looking from outside
Of the chaos once living among in foolishness
Dying moment by moment of thy will
So Christ might reign within
And reject all these impure spirits
From entering His temple
