The Lion of Judah has won

The Lion of Judah has done it again
Jesus, has won the battle
It was a battle that seemed hopeless,
Against Powers that were deemed strong and mighty
Powers that could desroy, overwhelm and over turn
I turned to the Lord for help
He did not turn me back.

Amidst the weariness, and fret
He hugged me
When my freinds left me
To join my enemies
He stayed close,
The Holyghost, lifelong comforter
Was there to guide and to cheer


He revelaed Himself through His word
Be bold my child
Be strong for
I am with you wherever you go
This became my weapon
Throughout the night
The Lord stayed with me
He watched my going out
And my coming in
He watched as I moved my being
Among lions and wolves and vipers
He watched my door
As I laid down to sleep
He accompanied me to the bathroom
Where a trap was set for me

Instead of my feet,
The trap has entangled its owner
And like David
My soul has escaped like a bird
Great fear has fallen over my enemies
Because the Lord is on my side
What can man do unto me?
If I am a Graduate from the Premier University
It is because the almighty God,
Faithful as always
Has fought the powers that be
And won the battle
Blessed be the Lord
Who did not withold his constant love for me

But let the righteous be joyful

Let God rise up, let his enemies be scattered; let those who hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; as wax melts before the fire, let the wicked perish before God. But let the righteous be joyful; let them exult before God; let them be jubilant with joy. Sing to God, sing praises to his name; lift up a song to him who rides upon the clouds— his name is the LORD— be exultant before him. Psalm 68 ; 1-4 God gives the desolate a home to live in Father of orphans and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation. God gives the desolate a home to live in; he leads out the prisoners to prosperity, but the rebellious live in a parched land. Psalm 68: 5-6 The earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain O God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wilderness, Selah the earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain at the presence of God, the God of Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel. Psalm 68: 7-8 O God, you showered abro...

Depend On God’s Unmerited Favor, Not Favoritism

Meditate On And the patriarchs, becoming envious, sold Joseph into Egypt. But God was with him and delivered him out of all his troubles, and gave him favor and wisdom in the presence of Pharaoh, king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house. Acts 7:9–10 There is a significant difference between God’s unmerited favor and favoritism . God’s unmerited favor is based entirely on Jesus’ merit, and we received it through His finished work at the cross. We did nothing to deserve His favor. It is completely unmerited. Favoritism, however, stinks of self-effort. Individuals who rely on favoritism for promotion resort to apple-polishing, office politics, manipulative tactics, backstabbing and all kinds of compromises just to get what they want. God has a higher and better way for you. It hurts Him to see His precious children groveling like sycophants just to get ahead in life. If a door closes, so be it! Believe with full confidence...
