Now I Know…Myths are about to be shattered!

I was trying to work out the mystery
Trying to piece it all together
I said surely this cannot be so
I did not want to rely on being clever!
Then God revealed it all, revelation after revelation,
Now I know for sure,
That I was not far wrong from a theory of conspiracy
Part and parcel of true Christian legacy
Persecution, Bullying, singling out,
To be expected, naturally.

Now I know…
What do I do, do I begin to sigh?
No, I simply stand on Gods Word,
Thessalonians 1:5 says:
Rejoice always – good times and bad
In everything give thanks – good things and bad
Quench not the spirit – when I know what’s what and when I don’t
Despise not the prophesying – “all things work together for good”
Prove all things- test everything presented!
Abstain all appearance of evil – Let the Holy Spirit have dominion
Pray without ceasing – not just for me; for you, and for everyone!

Truly, now I know, I pray for a nation
Under a strong delusion
It is exactly as the Word said it would be
The spirit of Anti-Christ may have risen
But Jesus Christ is still on the throne
His people shall not be moved – HE WILL build His church,
Why? He’s getting them Holy – getting being the operative word!
For God is Holy, Holy, Holy
POWER over the enemy belongs to His people alone…

“Deep calleth unto deep” do you know?
If you understand the sign of the times,
You will not be at ease
For God has declared a time of review
My fear and dread is in God alone
I repent minutely, hourly, daily,
Why? Well I am the flesh of His flesh the bone of His bone
Our Father holds they key to pastures new
Relentlessly I lay prostrate before Him
I have never known anything like this in the pass
People all around, this poem is a living Word
I write as a message, I pray it will be heard
And I know that I have a captive audience
Wherever you are, it does not matter
Some of you may even be quite well known
Some of you are searching – don’t pick up that phone!
The only hotline you need is the one to Zion
Where by His grace you will one day belong.
It makes no difference if you are in Luton or Houston
Lets talk a while, can you hear me over there in Malibu?
“Loud and clear” – Thank you Timbuktu
My dear Grandma Bea in Queens would probably say
“God love all of we… all of we is His children”
Listen: There are some myths I am about to shatter;

Who said you have to fix up before you come to Christ?
Who said you must be smart and all that and dapper?
Who said you must walk and talk a certain way?
Who said you cannot be a hip hop rapper?
Who said you cannot be in church and yet be crying out for help?
Who said you cannot be a wife and still feel alone?
Who said if you don’t come up to scratch, you must be a devil?
Who said ‘sorry mate– you’re on your own?’

Who said God doesn’t care about the world?
Who said HE is not properly concerned?
Who said God does not have a sense of humour?
Who said God was all staid and stern?
Who said God doesn’t understand your idiosyncrasy?
Who said God is just not interested in unique you?
Who said God cannot do the impossible and turn it around?
Who said God cannot make you brand new?

Come as you are, you will be fixed
Jesus will put the broken pieces back together again
Don’t you know He specialises in cases that are to big for the head
Oh yes God loves an unabashed head case.

Come as you are, no nice garments needed
There is no comparison for Heavens bling
You cannot compare the song God will give you too sing
He will change your lyrics
Your tune will reach a new dimension
It’ll come in like a brand new invention

Where are you at? It doesn’t even matter…
You were bought with a price
THEREFORE, you will be taught
You see God searched for you and then chose you,
YOU were personally sought
Instant haughtiness does not apply!
You belong to God, your sonship is in Him
Whether you find it easy or you find it hard
He’s your Father and he won’t give up on you
He will not from His own refuse or disown
He says will never leave you, nor forsake you
For He sees your motives,
He see’s your heart, and it can be wicked, the bible says,
no doubt within
But listen the bible then says: “love shall cover a multitude of sins”
Whatever you do, love you neighbour
And if you don’t, then make a start
Keep on, soldier, He will not depart…

And another thing,
Too many Christians have been battling with chains for way too long
They don’t know who they are in the Kings Kingdom
Too afraid of the religious
Who will scoff and scorn
Unaware of Gods power and awesome wisdom
This reverse imprisonment must come to an end
No more, I do declare and decree
Like anybody else
Jesus came for you too
He came to set the captives free!
Put down whatever it is, try again, right now,
Today is your day of salvation
Twenty years bottled up can be gone in an instant
With one touch or with just one revelation
Call on the Holy Spirit, please don’t quench Him
He is the only one who will help you succeed
Did you get that? Please, meditate on these words,
I beseech you, please take spiritual heed
Yes, you who has been crying, praying 'n' praising your way out of spiritual Lodabar
You have made progress, but the promise land seems so far
Take off the mask, God knows your pain
Let no man tell you, you worship in Vain.

'You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free'
Be set free from the yoke of bondage
Receive your liberty, be not entangled again
In Jesus Name
I decree, and declare
That from today
You will never be the same.
There are others brought to my attention
Lord knows, I pray sincerely for you
I am human, undeserved, I understand
What God does for me, HE will do it for you too
My God is not a respecter of persons
And He will do what He has purposed from foundations to do
Repent and accept Him as Saviour
Trust God and see Heavens reaction
In the lambs book of life there shall be no ‘isms’
No division, or clique or demented factions
When we get to Heaven
You may be surprised of who you see sitting in the pew
And the ones you thought were so high and mighty
May be the ones God says; ‘I never knew’


Down to the nitty gritty
People are getting delivered behind the scenes
Where two and three are praying together
Where there’s love and unity
Neighbours are coming to know Christ
A smile in the road melts somebody’s heart
They see Jesus; through you, hallelujah, God has just delivered!
Now that I know
I shall increase my prayer
I shall not stop…relentless prayer- without ceasing
Change must come,
A revival will break,
With an extraordinary uptake,
Unfamiliar waters will be broken,
Millions and millions all over the world,
Will be caught up in the next move of God.

Where are you going to be?
How will you live for the rest of your years?
Where will you spend eternity?
Maybe its time to change gears
My goodness, you can now make the right choice
Now that you have been told, which way that you should go
Don’t follow the crowd,
This is an everlasting issue, you know.
Let us praise Him for HE alone has allowed us to see
To get understanding and be able to say,
Now I know, I can finally be free…

Don’t worry about putting on a posh frock your'e already ‘posh’
Or getting a golden tan for you are His golden one
Let the spirit of God lead you all
Into His palace, friend, into His peace
You will not find here any undercover malice
Everything will be out in the open
He Loves YOU...
Pam, Heather and you Miss Vicky
He’s calling you Mel, Dave and old boy Dickie
He knows you personally Sean and you know it…
He’s calling you Danni, Georgio and Jen
City lad’s His ‘wiv ya’ in the Lions Den
He’s sat on the beach over in Greece
He’s flying in a plane over the city of Nice
He’s right down there in Gaza – yes He loves the people
He’s dwelling in Galilee – of course naturally!
Whatever’s your address and whatever’s your name,
The message won’t change its exactly is the same
You see He is not partial, Christ Died for ALL men
Now that you know tell me are you gonna become a friend?
No more excuses, now you know,
Cue; "let’s get this party started" - only difference is,
At this party you WILL ‘dash way’ the chains of EGYPT!
You will come out,
You will live your life to a brand new script.
