Arrested For Preaching The Gospel

 

They placed me in handcuffs and took me to jail, contemplating life's choices and so miserably I could fail. But I hadn't failed to do what He's called me to do, and here I am in the back of the car, for me something new. Booking me in they had announced the charges, preaching the Gospel now illegal near a church under some arches. I was stripped of my clothes and given oranges while I was processed in, a photo was then taken, and I gave them a grin. I knew the new unrighteous law was what brought me here, but now my ministry would grow as I would preach it for all to hear.

I was led to a cell with multiple unhappy mugs, they asked me if perchance I had brought in any drugs. I told them I hadn’t, but I had something better, something that would help remove them from being a sin debtor. A couple of nods here and there, I was then given the chance to make them Gospel aware. Some would not listen as I had come to expect, while others came to Jesus willingly, for others I had to earn their respect. Making the most of my time I would walk around, while others came to me to point out in the Word what they'd found.

The Bible studies I held were usually with a bunch of junkies but with the amount of new people coming, I knew they were hungry. The guards began to notice the crowds that were drawn, they thought a fight was breaking out, they thought it was on. But to their surprise not a fight to be seen, the inmates that usually gave them a hard time started to not be so mean. Some of the guards were saved, while others were not, but they all gladly listened and had learned a lot.

A small price to pay for being obedient to His Word, would you be willing to do the same if to you this occurred? Times are changing if you couldn't tell, and this could be a reality someday where you too would be thrown in a cell. What will you do if that day comes, will you be reclusive or be ready for what you'd become? A felon for preaching the Gospel you'd be placed in that cell, but of course that is far better than facing eternity in hell. So be obedient to preach the Word now for this very reason, you never know when, with the government, it will be considered out of season.

The Porn Star

  Sitting in the rocking chair while sipping her tea, she thought of her life's choices that brought her here and where she could be. But she learned from her mom on how to make her money, contemplating the reason she had no stable hubby. She had posted hours of video doing the obscene, she wanted to make money, but she felt so unclean. If only there was a way out of doing this sin, objectifying her body before several culpable men. After a terrible night of tossing and turning, she had a dream of several men screaming while burning. She woke up alarmed and covered in sweat, wondering why she had a dream of men she'd never met. She went back to sleep and had another dream, but this time she was burning, it felt so extreme. She awoke the next morning and called her friends; they didn't know what to make of it or what it intends. Exhausted from her attempts to get a decent night's rest, she decided that taking a day off and a nap would be best. This time she had falle...

You Cannot Tame A Lion

  (Intro/Chorus) You Cannot Tame a Lion No, You Cannot Tame a Lion Under the Lion of Judah  (Repeat x2)     (Verse 1) Across the hills and valleys our roar can be heard, breaking through the darkest part, our victory assured. For our King is with us and He is on our side, we have nothing to fear, we are His Bride.     (Verse 2) We take part in what He has planned, we are His Body subduing this land. In a beautiful hue we are arrayed, a Rainbow of sorts, with His Glory displayed. He's called us to roar, and roar we do, He Rules Over All Rebellion and His reign is true.     (Bridge) We are called for such a time as this, we cannot be tamed and we will not miss. We are His Bride dressed and ready for battle, we are here to roar and to silence the enemies rattle.
