Don't Tell Anyone I Did This For You!
FOREWORD
It is with great pleasure and immense respect, I get to sample one of the Best Smooth Jazz Founders works: the late African America Grover Washington Jr. (12 December 1943 - 17 December 1999). Mister Magic was one of the most popular Smooth Jazz songs, the rest of the Jazz World knew Grover Washington Jr. thereby. The great musician is no longer with us on this side of the sun but he's left an eternal legacy for the World to always remember him fondly.
Rest in Peace and in Power Dear Grover Washington Jr. your day on Earth is done!
Don't Tell
Anyone I Did This For You!
And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed Him, crying,
and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. And when He was come into the
house, the blind men came to Him: and Jesus saith unto them, believe ye that I
am able to do this? They said unto Him, Yea, Lord.
Then touched He their eyes, saying, according to your faith be it unto you. And their eyes were opened; and Jesus
straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it. But they, when they
were departed, spread abroad His fame in all that country.
It is hard for me to fathom Jesus charging the once dead Lazarus:
Don't Tell Anyone I raised you from the dead! But Lord, look around at all
these witnesses who just saw me hopping out of my tomb? Lazarus would have
argued publicly with Jesus! Scheduled to die on the Cross: Jesus, the Son of
God never, not even once; did anything out of the ordinary! This is what
baffled the Religious Leaders of the day.
Then He touched their eyes, saying, according to your faith be it unto you. And their eyes were opened. See that no
man knows about this! What, Lord? Reacted the once blind men! Thank you, Jesus,
we can now see! We want to go thank our neighbour's boy who acted as our guide
and escorted us to the marketplace to beg for alms!
What are we going to say to our families when they see us rush into
the house without our white sticks? Come on now Lord, you are not joking with
us? What about the Joy welling up inside our hearts and how do we stop the effervescent Rivers of Life within? We Go Tell, We will Tell the World about all that God
has done for us! We Go Tell, We Go Tell! Dear World, Hear Ye us!
And when they were come out of the
ship, straightway the crowds knew Him, And ran through that whole region round
about, and began to carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard He
was. And whithersoever He entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they
laid the sick in the streets, and besought Him that they might touch if it were
but the border of His garment: and as many as touched Him were made whole.
In my whole life as a Born-Again Christian since 1980, I have never
studied and followed the Life of Jesus as close as I'm doing today! The more I
gaze at the Incredible Miraculous Life of Christ, God constantly draws me to my
knees and kind of dares me as in laughter: you ain't seen nothing yet! Look
deep.
I have never heard of any of
so-called faith healers of today, repeating what Jesus did. The whole streets were
lined up on either side, with sick people on their mattresses waiting for Jesus
to touch them! Many touched His garment and were healed while others got their
miracles as the shadow of the Son of God: fell upon them!
See that no man knows about this, Jesus charged all those He healed
thru one-on-one encounter with Him! The Son of God enjoyed His Life on Earth
thru and thru but, healing the sick and doing wonders was one of His Favourite
Habits! Don’t tell anyone I did this for you, Jesus cautioned His outpatients
with a chuckle!
Wanna hear my advice for you? Stop
following popular fallible mortals like your apostles, pastors, bishops,
teachers, evangelists, prophets, etcetera. Why? Because when their moral
scandal is exposed to the public, you’ll surely get all smacked up with all the
dirty splats flying around your once blessed mega-church! And great will be the
noise and fall of their house, said Jesus!
You will be disappointed to the point of hating God as you punch
the sky and them walls of your house: gnashing your teeth with disdain! What
now, your neighbours will mock you? My favourite man of god has just confessed to
sleeping with all these women; he’s confessed to stealing all these millions
too.
The man unashamedly admitted all of
them so-called miracles were fake and staged: there was no Jesus or the Holy
Ghost operating in our church only the Luciferian spirits of darkness! Your man
of god is a ritualist! Ouch!
Do you wanna know how to walk victoriously as a Child of God? Do as
the Disciples, the Apostles did by following the Footprints of the Man from
Galilee! This is an open secret hidden in plain sight and right inside the Word
of God. Stop talking and telling the World about your prophet and just how good
it’ll be for your neighbour to join your church.
What happened to JESUS who DIED on
the CROSS for you? Your sick church is not the Gospel: JESUS IS THE ONLY GOSPEL
PEOPLE MUST HEAR!
If you want to gossip as a Christian, go round and round your
neighbourhood and start yapping about the GOODNESS of the LORD: like the Good
Samaritan Woman did in her humble Samaritan Village. If you follow Jesus, your
roots are guaranteed to carry you yonder the grave and into the Celestial Glory
of God in the Hereafter!
I follow no man but Jesus! I am what
I am because of Jesus, no mortals can take credit for my life, Only God! Jesus
is my Rock and Foundation; all the other ground is sinking sand!
And there came a leper to Him, beseeching Him, and kneeling down to
Him, and saying unto Him, If thou wilt canst make me clean. And Jesus, moved
with Compassion, put forth His hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will,
be thou clean. And as soon as He has spoken immediately the leprosy departed from
him, and he was cleansed.
And He straitly charged him, and
forthwith sent him away. See that thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way
and shew thyself to the Priest as the Law of Moses commanded!
You’re not kidding me Jesus, or are You? What, Lord? How can I keep
my peace when no man ever touched me in years, and let alone come close within my
breath: I was the Pariah of my Town? People avoided me like death.
The Bible says, the once leprous man,
went out and began to publish and to blaze abroad the matter of his story and
history. So much so that Jesus tried to avoid the crowds which followed Him as
the results of the leper’s witnessing: the crowds even followed Jesus right
into the desert!
We Go Tell! We Go Tell! The Joy welling up inside is killing us…We Go Tell, We Go Tell! Hello World, We give you JESUS...
