WAKE UP CHRISTIANS


The world is rushing on
The world has shoke up the Word
Out of our heart making us cold
We have left the ancient landmark
In pursuit of the cares of this life
 
Wake up Christians
We are getting weary and tired
We are leaving the urgency of our calls
For the calls of the passion and things of this world
Wake up Christians
 
The night is coming
When no one can work
While it is call today
When the sun is still shinning
Wake up Christians
 
We cannot afford to be sleeping now
This is the time to watch and pray
Is a call unto watchfulness and is urgent
The world is fading away and taking the His Word out of us
Wake up Christians
 
The coming of the Lord is so eminent
The Saviour we soon come any moment from now
The last trumpet we sound
The angels are set about to blow the trumpet
Wake up Christians
 
This is not the time to wonder in laziness
This is the time to get closer
The time to renew our consecration and dedication
To earnestly stand and contend the faith
Wake up Christians
 
We must reach the world with the Word
Taking the Saviours love into the world
A message of hope to the dying world
Preparing for eternity while we have the time
Wake up Christians

THE END IS NEAR


Is time to pray
For God to watches for us
Is time we need God’s help in time of need
The world is dark and the days are getting frighten
Is time for all the children of God to pray
 
The world is falling apart
The heart of men are falling them
There is unrest in the land
The political powers are failing
The end is near
 
So much fake abound around
The false prophet keep multiplying
The last days are eminent right in our eyes
The moment is coming so fast
The end is near
 
The world is going back to zero point
The fashion is so killing making decency go out of trends
As the world is so caught up in show biz
Everyone want to taste the drink of fame
The end is near
 
Brothers against brothers
Sisters against sisiters
As children dare to challenge their parent
The household of God taking each other to court
The end is near
 
 
As sin is modernized with a sweet name
Calling what is evil good
Calling darkness light
All manners of evil deeds are not new anymore
Christians wake up
 
Pastors and religious leaders
Now feel as the big men of God
That died for the world
Wanting the creator to worship the creator
The end is near
 
Christians wake up
We must arise
There’s no time for delaying
This is time for reaping
The harvest is fast approaching work while it is called day

KEEPING DAD IN MEMORY


4th August 1992
Was the year my dad bid this world farewell
To be with his Maker in eternal rest
A peaceful being went home before his time
Because of man's wicked act meant out to him
But Heavens knows all the answer
That time will ever tell
 
Many years has come and gone
Yet the footprint of dad lingers on
On the sands of time
Little did I no dad but a lot tells about him
Because I was still a child when he left
 
Seen mother talked about him
How I look like him am a replica of my dad
Living without a father
Was a bit tough and challenging
At such a time when one needed him around
 
But in the midst of it all
I grew stronger than ever
I fought my way through life
To keep life afloat going
As not having all life afford
 
But mum was a super strong woman
Who walk the mile to make sure
I and my siblings are fine
She trying to feel the vacuum
Playing the role of both parent figure
 
My dad is a complete gentle man
Whose love for family is top priority
Looking back to those days
Of dad been much alive and around
The humility he possess is not here
 
The calmness that oozes out of him
No one can contain
I know He is looking down right on me
Been proud of what have become
Over the years he left to be with his maker
Am also proud of you dad been your son
 
Dad's memory we forever live like a life in me
You are always remember by your loving son
From a beloved son to a loving dad
Late JOHN A. OKOH

FEAR GOD


God’s laws are immutable
And His words, unchangeable
His decrees defy the whims and
Caprices of men and His statues
Transcend the variation in times
 
These explained why mankind
Has to yield unequivocally
To His instructions and obey
His commandments without any reservation
 
The way of sin is down-hill
Joshua states the fatal consequences
Of going back from the way of righteousness
As it applied to Israelites at that time
So does it apply to all people today
 
The way of sin is the way of ruin
The first step is usually is friendship
With idolaters, sinners, and the ungodly
The next is getting into marriage
Relationship with them
 
If we cleave to God
Then we must always stand
Upon our guard for many a soul
Is lost through carelessness
Fear God

SERVING TWO MASTERS


The tragedy of serving two masters
Is that it puts on the supposed servants
The onerous responsibility of constantly
Adjusting his loyalty on the basis
Of anticipated favours from each master
Rather then the master’s demand
 
He will end up doing eye service
No man can serve two masters
The scripture stated emphatically
Joshua succeeded Moses as Israel’s leader
He had led them over the years now
 
And had been used of God
In various mighty ways
Now he was approaching the end
Of all mortals and needed to drum it
Into the peoples ears
 
Ministers and leaders in God’s house
Must warn the congregation
The conditions that the people
Faced in the Bible days are
Obviously prevailing today
 
Christian believers must be warned
To resist with all vehemence
All attraction to unequal yoke
And ungodly relationships
Serving two masters
 
The believers today is at risk
To capitulate under worldly pressure
To join evil doers
But do not worry, trust in the power
Of God to carry you through
 
After all
He has promised in the Scripture
That my grace is sufficient for you
No man can serve two masters
Serving two masters
