Best Powers Of Darkness Poems


Premium Member The Armor of God

In ancient times when knights were bold,
They dressed in armor, so we're told.
When they went out to face their foe,
Their armor protected them head to toe.

Christians we must do the same,
Or be struck down by Satan's aim.
His flaming arrows fly all around,
Intending to knock us to the ground.

So put on God's armor without delay,
We need His protection everyday.
For our struggle is not against what we can see,
But the powers of darkness are our enemy.

Stand firm then and dress with all haste,
Start with truth buckled 'round your waist.
Satan fights dirty by spreading lies,
But the belt of God's truth will make us wise.

Next is the Breastplate of Righteousness,
That God provides for all who are His.
It's the righteousness of Christ covering you,
That the evil one cannot stand up to.
 
Now cover your feet with the readiness of,
Sharing God's gospel of peace and love..
Take the Shield of Faith and keep it near,
To deflect Satan's arrows of confusion and fear.

Place the Helmet of Salvation firmly on your head,
It will keep Satan's lies from filling you with dread.
He wants to make you doubt your salvation is sure,
But the helmet will guard your mind and keep you secure.

Your armor is complete, but now you need a sword,
So take the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of the Lord.
God's Word is sufficient to defend or attack.
With God's Word in your heart you can hold Satan back.

With your armor in place and your Sword in your hand,
Be strong in the Lord and in His power stand.
And pray in the Spirit at all times and all ways,
Cause the enemy trembles when Saints start to pray!

Scoffers Take Heed

A gut full of grease is a glutton for greed
A swirling cesspool of sinful man's seed
These men of corruption, a pitiful breed
They trust their own hearts, which deceives them indeed
Prey for the fallen and wicked to feed
Who whisper with promise to fill man's each need
They scoff at God's promise, those depraved will not heed
They mock every word in God's Book when they read
Rejecters of Truth, in which mankind is preed
They have no fear of Christ, Who shall judge every deed
He Who gives man the breath for his life to proceed
He alone, in strict justice, shall perfectly meed
He Who casts into hell, by His Word, whence decreed
He Whose anger, and fury, and wrath shall exceed
All the strength of His creatures, who must there ever dreed
He Who mocks, in derision, all the damned as they plead
He Who laughs as they weep and they wail to be freed
He Who kindles the fire that shall burn every weed
Reprobate beings shall become as a glede
The bread of the leaven He shall thoroughly knead
He Who bled as they jeered shall then jeer as they bleed
When He smites with His iron they'll remember the reed
They'll remember His cup, that accursed Ganymede
He forsaken of God that the veil should be screed
He Who endured that redemption succeed
He Who for sinners was made sin, to accede
For sin, and the Devil, and death to impede
The powers of darkness were forced to recede
As did that legion of swine once stampede
When Jesus returns riding 'pon a white steed
Armies of angels and saints shall He lead

Open your ears and your eyes and take heed
Do not let your heart be a stone when you read
The Word became flesh, as the God-Head decreed
Son of God, Son of man, incorruptible Seed
A Savior for every sinner in need
Son of man, in the flesh, come to weep and to bleed
Son of God, Bread from heaven, to heal and to feed
Christ Jesus, the Son, that He might intercede
To reconcile God with the chosen to be freed
He Who the Son frees shall be free indeed

Premium Member Sacred Ground

Those who stand their ground...
Their sacred ground...
With their backs against the wall.
Making bold their full intentions
While the slings and arrows fall.

Laying waste an air of happenstance
Permeating sick and feeble minds...
Caring not the monstrous odds
The powers of darkness have aligned.

I fear not this mass of troubled souls
Who demand their pound of flesh.
I contest every foot of treasured Earth.
I contest every loathsome wretch.

I give not an inch to those who dare
Make dark the light of day
To preserve such sacred wanderings
Where the meek would have their say.

I will lift my voice in praise and song
To evince the veracity of my cause
Displaying a knightly measure of gallantry
To give the hapless minions pause.

But sweet victory demands some sacrifice
As a judicious Death may set me free.
Knowing this... would you be at my side?
Would you rise and stand with me?

Put On the Full Armor of God

Put On The Full Armor of God

“12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." Eph 6:12-17 NIV

Put On The Full Armor of God,
So you can stand against the Devil’s schemes.
Our struggle’s not against flesh and blood,
That on the surface seems.
It’s against the powers of darkness
And the Spiritual forces of evil,
So Put On The Full Armor of God
To protect you from the Devil.

Buckle the belt of truth
Right around your waist.
Guard yourself with the breastplate of righteousness,
By your heavenly Father placed.
Adopt the gospel of peace and love,
And take up faith’s shield,
So you can extinguish the evil one’s arrows—
Never more to yield.

Put on the helmet of salvation,
And place your sword by your side.
The sword of the Spirit is God’s word,
That provides you power inside.
Pray in the Spirit continually—
Your armor to protect.
Be alert and pray for all the saints,
That they may be circumspect.

The Full Armor of God is essential
To protect you from the unseen foe.
Make sure you wear it continually,
Whatever you do or wherever you go.
You are the Lord’s ambassador,
So be fearless in your armor.
Allow the Lord to fight your battles,
And He will show you favor.

Premium Member Mist In the Woods

From a distance the mist covers everything
The magical woods is hidden behind this
Walking through this gruesome woods the fog does sing
Powers of darkness encompassed by the mist
Sun tries to pierce the hollow of the center
But can’t make it through, ranting on its banter
Beating off its own light, mist carries onward
Feeding on the cloudy scene closing toward

The Hands of the Village Carpenter

There was a king who invited Artists to sketch the exact hand of Jesus so he can hung it in His palace

One of them depicted a Jesus with an Animal looking hand
Another depicted that He had the Square or the working hand
One of the Artists depicted that Jesus had a skillful hand
Another established that the Savior had the Philosophical hand
The final Artist sketched a Jesus with a Plane hand
The king wasn’t thrill by all the art works, so he never signed it. Why?
Because none of the sketched hands reflected the crucifixion of Jesus.

Hand’s which once held nails and wood
Now being held by nails and wood
Battered and tattered hands
The hands of a village Carpenter

He nailed splinters and carved timbers
He gripped lumbers with his bare-fisted fingers
In an age without gloves and hand creams
In an age without sunscreen lotions

A Village Carpenter hands, God’s chosen Son
Hands that labored under the harsh eastern sun
Hands that raised houses and erected buildings
Hands that fashioned furniture and repaired kids’ toys

Hands that broke bread and fed multitudes
Is now being broken to feed multitudes
These were the hands that fed the poor
These were the hands that healed the sick

These were the hands that made the sea and the fish
These were the hands that took bread and dipped it in a dish
And gave it to Judas as a gesture of deep love and affection
Here was the bread of life Himself, the Son of the living God

These were the hands that framed the stars and the skies
These were the hands that opened the blind man’s eyes
These were the hands that loosed the cold hand of death
These were the hands that disarmed powers of darkness

These were the hands that washed the disciple’s feet
These were the hands that cleansed lepers in the street
Oh gentle hands! Never slapping another back
Oh lovely hands! Never touching too roughly

These hands that bore scars that no lotion could heal
These are the hands of Jesus, so powerful and so real
These are the hands that convey love, so lovely
Oh! What a powerful hands! Oh what a lovely hands

The Dream Snatcher

A storm's raging in the realm of Daga
Coachman pulls his horses to halt
There stood a castle with gargoyles spouting water
While rain poured cats and dogs 
          
From a Royal carriage descends a passenger
Cloaked head down to his feet
An owl was terrified of seeing him,flew off instantly
  
At the crack of thunder, bats came rushing out the halls
A dark shadow appeared at the door, and made a trolling call
“Dreaded day to you My Lord,”  this way to den 
"Dream Snatcher" was trapped in a mirror
As King cobra slid pass and went
   
 The Devil removed his cloak, and the incantations commenced
 “Dream Snatcher you are hereby summoned to snatch dreams of children 
 I command! Away with dreams and frighten them...
 Scare them with blood sucking vampires, soul eaters, and ugly ghouls
 Let no child escape, the dreamless fate that will ensue"
                
"Come forth and honor me
Bow down on your knees
And the Demon chanted
"Ra-Ra- Daga-Daga-Dunga, By the powers of darkness come forth from the mirror, Ra-pa-pa" 

Out of the mirror came a blinding streak of light 
The Dream Snatcher was set loose to spread havoc at his delight

Then Lucifer spoke to the Thunder God of sky

" I'm sending out this warning to children everywhere
Look in the corners of your rooms and under your beds
Up at ceilings or maybe somewhere in your heads
Watch out! Who's that there? He's coming for you"
                   
The Dream Snatcher is here...

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha, Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!"

Fight the Good Fight

Watch out watch out
There's an enemy within
It came in unaware
Motivated by sin.

Its covered in darkness
Yet seen as a light
This enemy within
Man alone cannot fight.

It wants to control us
And enslave us in sin
But as David killed Goliath
With God we can win.

These powers of darkness
Will challenge our faith
Removing our freedoms
Our forefathers gave.

This enemy within
I warn don't embrace
Lets stand on God's word
And not fall from grace.

Jesus defeated
When He died on the cross
All the powers of darkness
There Satan lost.

Be strong christian friend
And stand in God's light
Trust in your faith
And fight the good fight.

Pushing Through Portals of Time

We all stood there just looking at it. It was bright and filled with swirling lights. The kind of lights that almost put you in a trance and then you step in and you move beyond the speed of sound. It was like an intricate system of highways and byways and locomotive tracks that moved the children of God all across the universe to do their end time work. We ran from one corner of the universe to the next battling demons and the principalities of the air. None of them could touch us either because we came with the power of God. 

I remember it was the best of times. It was me, my friend from Kenya, and my best friend here in the United States. We were chasing these demons who were throwing wild parties at the executioner's camps. They were celebrating that the children of God were being executed at the FEMA camps set up all across the planet and yet we were sent by the Creator Himself to shut down their after hours shenanigans. 

As soon as we showed up on the scene we used our spiritual weapons to overcome the powers of darkness. We knew that our time was quite limited because we were needed somewhere else too. I think it was in China. So off the three of us went through the portal holes that God the Father designed for the entertainment of His end times army. We had so much fun back in the day! Rumor has it that we will doing it all over again one day very soon!

(This writing is based on a dream that was sent to me by Jehovah God).

I Want To Go Away

I want to go away 
see it coming in the air 
that is not a flight of peace
the sounds it bleeds 
bleeds sorrows 
we are in trouble again
another air steel is
about to lay another 
egg of fire 
what a fight 
I never want to see 
and now 
I want to go away 

oh see it coming in the air 
oh see it coming in the air
the bird of war 
another fight is set again
and now 
I want to go away 


I want to go away 
see it coming in the air 
the mark of destruction
is obvious in our cloud again
who is going to save us
from this calamities
cos we are not ready 
for sorrows again 
we don't want no steel bird 
above our roof heads again
I wish we could stop that 
cos now our home is on fire
so as in many places
the steel bird are still
laying the eggs of fire 
and now 
I want to go away 

oh see it coming in the air 
oh see it coming in the air
the bird of war 
another fight is set again
and now 
I want to go away 

I want to go away 
see it coming in the air 
the steel birds from 
the powers of darkness 
they got nothing to offer 
but brutality
it does not matter who dies 
not even the innocent babies 
yet they say they are saving
the poor 
why are we running for safety
why must we be as a refugees
far from our homes 
why must our homes be set on fire 
this we can't ask now cos 
the air is still polluted and messy 
all for their false alarm 
to gave us peace 
yet war keep knocking
still revolution keeps on 
and now 
I want to go away


oh see it coming in the air 
oh see it coming in the air
the bird of war 
another fight is set again
and now 
I want to go away 

I  want to go away
I want to go away from trouble
I want to go away from brutality
I want to run to peace
any were it found 
I want to be safe 
from the powers of darkness
cos the world is full of many 
I want to be in the land of justice
does it ever exist 
I want a planet were nature 
is natural
I just want to run away 
away from the powers 
forces that rule our world 
to the deep of the deep of darkness
I wish God save me a place 
of peace cos now 
I want to go away


oh see it coming in the air 
oh see it coming in the air
the bird of war 
another fight is set again
and now 
I want to go away

Powers of Darkness

the powers of darkness
the world is in trouble
cos the rulers of darkness
will never stop their iron fest
they are so evil to the call
they bear no soul 
they have no feelings
not even for their own 
greed is all they desire 
is obvious we all can see
how a beautiful planet 
is burning in brutalities from
the powers of darkness

the powers of darkness 
our planet is in confusion
cos intelligent human 
has no fear of God 
they started already 
a war they can't end 
they are killing in masses 
and in quantum
they got no change 
either is change close 
to their doors 
the world belong to them 
they think cos they got 
a little heart 
to rule all mankind is 
their ultimate desire 
it does not matter to them 
who dies or live 
the future of the innocent
is never their goal to protect
so is obvious the world 
is in captive
captivated by
the powers of darkness

the powers of darkness
the world is burning
calamities are not new 
on our every day
new news in our nowadays media
destruction never stop 
starvation remains the same 
all over the globe 
innocent babies keep dying
for a curse they don't know
our men keep dying in revolution
cos they are feed up 
our woman are humiliated
right in front of the world
what a dark world 
were we are always thought
to pray and forget our problems
a world were manipulation
never gave truth a chance
we are not far any more from 
hell 
cos right now our world 
is darker than the darkest
wilderness
is sad despite who we are 
despite what we are 
despite what we know 
we are still down and buried
world wide in the 
powers of darkness

When the Rich Wage War

When the rich wage war
Power is intimidating
To the head low
If not his ego 
Will rise his shoulder
Higher beyond his 
Fears
Then the disabled
Is able to look at 
The world and see 
Their Shadows in reality

When the rich wage war's
The poor die 
Either in silent 
Or violence
Shadow speak then 
But for who 
Is it for the dead 
Is it for the fire 
Is it for hell 
The grave will 
Also say a lot 
When we are finally
Ready for the war 
Of the rich 


When the rich wage war 
They turn evil 
They breath like the 
Fuel of hell
They suddenly becomes
The twins to devil 
They no longer feel 
Cos they taken 
Taken away by the
Powers of darkness
How can the blind 
See in the dark
In this state of the mind
Confusion Is equal to madness
That why they wage a war 
Of no reparation

Prayer Has a Wonderful Story

The prayers of all saints are a perpetual force
Against all the powers of darkness
Therefore, do not divorce yourself from God
However, enforce your position in order to
Understand the simplicity of prayer!

The wonders of God’s power are to be kept in your life
Therefore, this ability has never left you
Prayer has been robbed of its majesty,
What a tragedy when you do not understand
The history of prayer!
Prayer has a wonderful story
Hence, miracles are God’s ways of acting,
At times, you need to retract yourself
Into a corner because there is glory in
Being a mourner especially if
You are torn apart in a particular situation!

Prayer brings to us blessings
That we need that only God can give!
Read Matthew 6 verse five and understand
Why you will arrive at your destination!
Man makes the plea and God makes the answer
Therefore, there is no reason to ‘flee’
Brothers and sisters you are dear
Do not fear but get near to Christ and discover
How willing He is to help you!
Great is the Lord and don’t forget
That the wonders of prayer have not ceased!

The Way Out is the Way Through

After all it is an observable sign of Weakness, 
To want to control another man, 
As it was all only ever a part
of, their existential plan, 
We might then have had a different course.. 
So, but for now, as it is and as it stands, 
We therefore need to face the facts, 
And commit to a complete separation and Divorce, 
At least if at all possible but with clean hands,
Of this contrived, diabolical and decrepit awful illusion, 
To not be lower than, nor accept, their lying and ignoble brand.. 
With every single available breath, 
Under no false impression nor delusion,
Of complete yet subtle ownership of Human life and death

To begin with came the stellar efforts of just a brave few..one could not deny, 
Now an ever increasing truth, That outweighs the falsehood and the heinous Lie, 
To rise and never relinquish your own sovereignty again - so then to fulfil.., 
The Soul instinctively knows this for how and for what - to return, 
That is our maker, God (Good) and our source, which is what we must relearn, 
We must all “rotate” as it is - to this..
After all that is said and done 
- it is his will, 

Simply put.. never let up against the powers of darkness until; 
As we emerge in victory for we never a moment expired our efforts spiritually and yet still..,

Just as it must be of our own decision and intuition, 
- for us all, for me, 
and for you,..

to know only this:

The Way Out is the Way Through..

Prayers Progress Patience

Calling on the Name of the Lord is good
Our citizenship is in Heaven so we have to
Understand our legal rights as children of God
The Name of Jesus sanctifies our prayers
Prayers progress patience because He cares

The prayers of all saints are a perpetual
Force against all the powers of darkness
Therefore, do not divorce yourself from God
But enforce your position to
Understand the simplicity of prayer
The Name of Jesus sanctifies our prayers
Prayers progress patience because He cares

The wonders of God’s power are to be kept
Therefore, this ability has never left you
Prayer has been robbed of its majesty,
What a tragedy when you do not understand
The history of prayer; prayer is the Yes in Christ Jesus
The Name of Jesus sanctifies our prayers
Prayers progress patience because He cares

Prayer has a wonderful story
Therefore, miracles are God’s ways of acting,
At times, you need to retract yourself
Into a corner because there is glory in
Being a mourner, especially if
You are torn apart in a particular situation
The Name of Jesus sanctifies our prayers
Prayers progress patience because He cares

Prayer brings to us blessings
That we need that only God can provide.
Read Matthew 6 verse five and understand
Why you will arrive at your destination!
The Name of Jesus sanctifies our prayers
Prayers progress patience because He cares

Man makes the plea and God makes the answer
Therefore, there is no reason to ‘flee’
Brothers and sisters, you are dear
Do not fear but get near to Christ and discover
How willing He is to help you,
Great is the Lord and don’t forget that
The wonders of prayer have not stopped
The Name of Jesus sanctifies our prayers
Prayers progress patience because He cares
