Sweet Jesus ( by Fenny West) Leave a comment
Sweet Jesus, a no go forget You
When I was dead, na You wey give me life
When i was empty, na You way make me full
When I was in sin, na you wey make me clean
When I was mad, na You wey make me sane
Sweet Jesus eeeoo
When I was blind you gave me back my sight
When I groped in the dark, You turned on your light
His Blood Speaks Better Things ( by Fenny West) Leave a comment
His Blood Speaks Better Things
Who shall bring an accusation
Against the redeemed of the Lord?
Who shall bring a charge
Against the ransomed of God?
His blood speaks better things
than the blood of bulls and goats
His blood speaks powerfully
Than the blood of bulls and goats.
Is blood atones powerfully
Than the blood of bulls and goats
His blood atones wonderfully
Than the blood of bulls and goats.
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. Heb12:24
Hold Fast Your Confession
19 Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus,
20 by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh,
21 and having a High Priest over the house of God,
22 let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.Heb10:19-23
6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. Heb8:6
19 For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. Heb7:19,22

Free Now to Serve
Free Now!
Time there was when I was in great bondage
Time there was when it was a wreckage
Time there was when it was damages
I’m now free to serve my God
Ch Free now, free now
Free now to serve my Lord
Free now, free now
I’m now free to serve my God
Time there when I was going blind
When I lacked behind
When I was in the grind
I’m now free to serve my God
Ch
When I had no goal
When flesh was on control
When I had a lost soul
I’m now free to serve my God
CH
When vision I lacked
When I groped in the dark
When on God I turned my back
I’m now free to serve my Lord
…when it was nakedness
…when It was all blindness
…When it was sin-sickness
Wickedness and sadness
When I bonded with death
When I had no health
Free now to serve my God Satan’s cage
My God, My God ( Echoes of the crucifixion) ( Fenny West) Leave a comment
My God, My God (echoes of the crucifixion Ps22)
You and I will come to this place when we feel God has abandoned us or is very far from us.
When this happens remember that Jesus went ahead of you. Regardless how you feel know that God is ever-present. He is Jehohah Shammah- the ever-present Lord. Remember the story of the man who walked with the Lord in the famous story: Footprints. The traveller looked backed at his life and saw two footprints all along but at certain point he only saw one set of footprints and he noticed that they occurred in his darkest moments and wondered why?
He asked the Lord: Lord, When I came to know you personally, You promised that You will never leave me nor forsake me. I am perplexed as I see our journey together showing two sets of footprints and when things were tough You abandoned me!
‘My Child,’ the Lord replied, ‘when you saw just one set of footprints, truly things were tough and rough and I had to carry you.’
Suddenly the penny dropped and he understood.
So my friend, no matter how dark God is still there. No matter how deep the valley, He is always there. Therefore do not despair. He is only a prayer away.
Jer32:27
27 “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?
10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’ Isa41:10
” Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine.
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.
Isa43:1-2
