I'LL WAIT 🚏 🚏 🚏
Though the situation of life warrants_
I act as if_
There won't be better chance
Though it pricks my heart
As the ardent desires is so attractive
Seeming my hope is full
Yet will I wait
Till my change has fully comes
Till I reach the climax of all
Though am thirsty
Yet will I not rush
For there's a spring of living water
Grumpy in his vineyard
Though this aroma
Is so salivating
Yet will I tarry
Till I'm ripe to eat it's fruit
For I've come to know;
Supposed Eve has waited_
She would have had_
The nourishment of her desires.
I've come to realized;
If Samson could tarry little_
He would have wipe off_
His enemy without dying alongside.
Has the Apostles not tarry
The gnashing of the Pentecost
Would have belude them
Revival would instead have tarried.
The meriment of the lustful pleasure
Is just but for a season
So I'll wait
Till I could have its fullness
I've come to realized
Elisha doesn't just desired
But tarry still with Elijah
For passover of the mantle
"We'd not go" saith Moses
"But tarry and wait_
Until thy Presence_
Has abide with us on our way"
For mouth cannot explain
Nor perceived by the ear
What thou hast prepared
For those patiently waiting on you
For they that waited on the Lord_
Will have their strength renewed_
Mounting up with wings as of eagle_
Runneth and never be wearied.
The salivating of my lustful desires
Cannot be compared_
To the longing hope_
Awaiting me as I tarried still.
Though am waiting_
Yet will I not settle for less,
But rather in my tarriness_
Will keep striving for the bes.
I'll wait
And suppressed my hunger
Irrespective of the salivating desires
I'm on fasting for the best.

ALLIANCE
This is the path I've chosen
It's divine in its course
This way I long to go
Till I reached the climax of it dept
The fellowship and alliance
The intimacy of his fellowship
The presence of his intimacy
That aura saturating His presence
This I long to venture in_
I haven't even started,
Don't criticize yet for I won't stop_
Not till He become full of me.
What sayeth ye,
Yes this is the path I've chosen
Such a one to impact
As a carrier of his influence.
Not, 'till I carries his identity
Without introduction I served as witness
Even in suffering, just the grace
To say no in temptation
To know him
As entering close partnership with him
He took over me to become his likeness
The dept as it was in the first beginning

HIM
Though He spite me
Yet will I seek Him
Though I'm hungry of earthily food
Yet will I cleave on Him more
My foot hath held His path
His way will I not declined
On Him shall I wait all my appointed time
For my change lies in His closet
For He holdeth the knees of feeble
And strengthen the weaken hands
One thing have I desire,
And that will I seek wholeheartedly;
"That I may abode His present forever-
Beholding the beauty of his influence"
Then would my soul found peace
And my heart be rejoiced
Then would I come into satisfaction
Having known the secrets of wisdom.

Result Oriented Prayers
TEXT:- James 5:17-18
"Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit." James 5:17-18.
INTRODUCTION
Prayer is simply, man talking to God and God talking to man in response. Prayer is telling God His mind towards you or on whatever you are praying for.
Today, believers are busy in prayers but are busy doing nothing. Much prayers but little to show for it because many are praying amiss and many are not praying for kingdom ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts".
Adam and Eve never prayed when they had the best of relationship with God hence, all they needed was provided but after their fall there was need for prayers because man saw his emptiness and wretchedness and the need for supernatural help and at the time Enos was born, man began to pray.
"And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD" Gen. 4:26.
I. BIBLICAL MEANINGS OF PRAYER:

3. Prayers that positively change situations and events: Prayers that are fervent should cause change and turnaround of difficult situations and terrifying events.

5. Prayers that cause Revival and reawakening of souls to seek the True God in holiness and righteousness: Prayers are to be instrumental to bringing down true Revival upon an individual, people, nation and in deed the whole world. It causes people to seek God in truth and in spirit.

Ingredients for Results Oriented Prayers. (What does it take to have Results Oriented Prayers):

2. Prayer must be purposeful and Intentional. Not casual or accidental: Prayers must not be a show off or as a mere mental or physical exercise. It must be for a reason. Dan. 1:8.
3. Prayer must be said from a pure heart (pure thoughts) and clean hands (clean actions, character, habits, speech and attitude): God does not answer the prayers of a sinner. Ps. 24:3-4.
4. Prayer must be rendered in strong Faith: Faith is seeing the way God sees. God sees no impossibility. Faith is acting on God's Word. It is taking God for His Words. Mark 11:22-23.
5. Prayer must be full of Great Convictions: It is must be without any iota of doubt. Prayers must be said with a "made up heart". Jam. 5:16.
6. Prayer must be Continual and Consistent: There is No Break, No Leave and No Holiday in prayers: Prayers must be constant and consistent. Prayers must go on until Christ comes. Lk. 18:1, I Thess. 5:17. Fervent and result oriented prayers must be rendered continually and consistently.
7. Prayer must involve agreement in the spirit amongst Brethren: No denominationalism, no unforgiveness, no bitterness, no discord, no rancour, no envy, no superiority complex and division: Cooperate prayers are hindered in the atmosphere of disunity and discord. Eph. 4:3-4.
8. Prayer must involve an expectation (hope) for answer: There are two sides to a coin. Faith is a side to a coin and hope is the other side of the coin in regards to results oriented prayers. Hope pushes and pulls the answers to prayers down against all odds. Ps. 62:5.
CONCLUSION : You are to pray in God's Will, purposefully from a pure heart, in faith and in agreement with other believers. And surely your prayers will begin to bring positive results in Jesus name.

A TURN UP FOR THE BOOKS
Why not turn a new leaf?
Pick up that book by your bed.
Learn something new about other things.
Bring a story to life in your head.
For a book can open up a world
That springs to life from the page.
A book can amuse,
A book can upset,
A book can prompt feelings of rage.
A character can somehow seem real
As if you have met them before.
The best books are the ones you cannot put down...
And leaves you wanting for more.
Make no mistake, a film can be great.
The special effects are immense.
But all the best films spring from the best books.
Come on! You know it makes sense!
A film will keep on playing
If you go to the kitchen or loo.
But a book will sit, patiently waiting
For the book can't be played without you.
To read and write is critical
In these info driven times.
And you've read to this point in the poem
Or others would say it's a rhyme.
But reading is more than just functional.
It doesn't just help us exist.
And if you are feeling skeptical,
Perhaps you don't know what you've missed.
Books can be truly magical;
I hope I have given that hint.
So why not try reading and reading for pleasure,
Those messages hidden in print?
