Sleepwalking
My brothers & sisters are sleep walking
and soon will wake up and notice
that they’ve overslept.
Rushing to put on their Sunday best
bursting through the door &
running for salvation
but by the time they reach the gate
you find that the gentiles have taken your place
Perhaps your salvation is corrupt.
They have no intent on saving us
Fools cannot feed you if their wisdom comes from a place
Of bondage.
Pastors teaching the same doctrine that their oppressors
taught in the day of slavery.
Now tell me how that’s going to wake up my people.
Hosea 4:6
Isaiah 49:6 & 42:6
Acts 13:47
