Perfect Love!!

I know that a lot of people that are in relationships nowadays sometimes feel that showing the other person you love them is by having sex. Hence the phrase "let's make love." However, though sexual desires maybe strong plus something that God gave us, needs to remain in context. You see though you may feel strong towards an individual we have to be careful that we don't just say things because they sound good. Webster's definition of love that stood out to me is: a sexual passion or desire. There were many others, but this is how the world sees love. Now after the sex then what? If there's nothing more than just that, then I guarantee that this particular relationship WILL FAIL! Love according to the Scriptures is way more than just feelings, its also about ACTIONS! Ex.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (NKJV) 4Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

The perfect love is the love of God towards His sons. Our Father has us constantly on His mind and in everything that He seeks to get done on this earth. He gave up His one and ONLY begotten Son.... (John 3:16) God is love. So if we're His people we need to be love also. We should start today by reminding people of the goodness we see in them and that God loves them. Let's start uplifting people, yes even when their being negative. Let's strive to show our compassion for EVERYONE not just those close to us! Jesus said even the heathens do that. Where's the challenge in that. Everybody is your brother and sister even the lost! We're here to show them the Way back home to Father. Saying come back to Father, there's plenty of...... at Father's house! So with that I want to say to my family, da Clique, friends, co-workers, and everyone. I love you! Shalom!~Levite~ (King & Priest)

New Life!

I'm finding out that people are always on the hunt for something "new". You know how the saying goes out with the old and in with the new! Well, I happen to like this concept. See no matter what you've done God's mercies are NEW every morning. If look back too far, there's no way you can press ahead. Stop looking at past mistakes or failures and start learning how to appreciate where you're at and look toward where you're headed. Everyday is a brand new chance to sieze the opportunities that lay in front of you. I encourage you to lay hold of your goals, dreams, and aspirations and put them in front of you EVERYDAY! In hopes that you NEVER loose sight of those things. First step would be to know that these goals, dreams, etc are obtainable and confess it to yourself that you can do it. Second would be to put a plan in place to achieve whatever you're trying to achieve. And finally put the plan in action. Once you accomplish these things with God's help you'll experience your "new life".

Ladies

No this ain't a degrading post im putting up about the ladies! In almost every rap video what do you see? video girls, these women are dressed down and letting these rappers degrade them in so many different ways. This is a major issue that has been going on for years in Hip Hop. To my artist, you dont not have to have a half naked girl in your video to sell albums. To the women, your body is sacred. You are Queens, present your self and act like the Queens you are. Hip Hop has literly took a womens body and distored it. They show things in videos that only their husbands are suppose to see. So I encourage: naw bump that, I'm telling you artist to respect your women. Men! respect, honor, and love your wives and the women in your life. Brittany Mason, I will practice what I preach and always treat you like the Queen you are. (Disguise)

When Things Happen Right, They Happen in Order

A Shout out to Metro Community College and all the students who shared with us the opportunity for our first live video shoot and interview this past Tuesday. I am excited about what God is doing with our group and who He is bringing in our path to help us along the way. During this experience, I was thinking about how important it is to be ready for when God calls people to help you go to the next level. I was reminded of a note I wrote down in church the other day during Pastor Martin Williams sermon, What Makes Us Great. He mentioned that when things happen right, they happen in order.

It is so important to have our entire lives in order, so that when God sends someone or something your way to assist you, you are ready to receive it. In the process of these students preparing for our video shoot and interview they had to go out and research who we were and what we stood for in order to take the right shots, ask the right questions, and have the right audio setup. Because we took the time to put our image in order via our website, well recorded CD’s, and professional biography/videos, they were able to jump right in the path of where God is taking us and use their talents to enhance what God is doing with our group. So many people who want to pursue a career in music jump right into selling CD’s and recording videos to post on YouTube in an effort to “get themselves out there”. But I encourage people who want to succeed at anything to be diligent and do it in order. When order is in place, many of the dreams you once chased will begin to chase you!

Start off by getting your personal life right with God and following after Him, seeking His wisdom on how to use the gift He put inside of you. You can’t say, “I want to rap for God” on Sunday, then go clubin’ on Friday. That’s out of order. Take time and enhance your life and your gift to where it can dramatically bless others (Practice, white, read, learn). Make it about helping others, as appose to what you can get out of it. And lastly be anxious only for wisdom and knowledge from God. These things are otherwise defined as order, and will launch you into the things you dream about. We are experiencing new heights in ministry every day, but know it’s only because we have gained favor with the people around us through doing things in order.

Just cuz....

Amen to Mission Man's last blog. "Be still and know that I am God." ~Psalm 46:10

Real quick...Whenever people cross through your mind or they're placed upon your heart to find out how they're doing, give them a call. Even when it seems like a "just cuz" moment, call them. To us it may be "just cuz" but to God it is a scheduled appointment. "A man makes plans in his heart, but the Lord directs his steps." ~Proverbs 16:9

Yield to the Holy Spirit who will guide you in all truth if you submit to Him ~John 16:13. Then act upon His distinct directions no matter how much it takes you out of your comfort zone. All part of our Father's business. Stay about your Father's business.

I love ya'll! (Lyrical Truth)

Dont Worry, Rest for Your Reward

There are so many things we deal with on a day to day basis that formulate ideas, and create false perceptions of who we really are, and what we are capable of doing. Lately I have been reminding myself not to worry about where I am. Rather rest in the future God has prepared for me.

When you worry you fight a mental battle and remind yourself of what you cant have, don't see, or cant do. And while these thoughts are at the for front of your mind you can no longer focus on what you do have, do see, and can do. The truth is you have the power to change your situation through prayer and strategies that God gives you, but only if you stop worrying about your current problem and start utilizing what God has already put inside of you to change the situation. This is how we rest in God.

There are numerous occasions in the Bible where God told His people not to worry, but to rest in Him. In Daniel 12:13 it says "And you? Go about your business without fretting or worrying. Relax. When it's all over, you will be on your feet to receive your reward." In other words, Relaxing and resting in God is directly associated with recieving your reward!

My goals is less worry, more reward.

God's Will!!!

I, a Kingdom Citizen, believe in the Constitution (Bible) and EVERYTHING IN IT!!! God's will is and always has been for His children to prosper! Just as any father wants good for their children, what would make Him any different? He's our Heavenly Father and He's the Source of all things! He gives us what is due to us. Since He has us at His heart's best interest He won't set us up to fail! So with that being said if you believe that He wants you to prosper it will be given to you according your faith! I put Scriptures down to back up what I'm saying eventhough there's a WHOLE lot more!

1 Chronicles 22:13 For you will be successful if you carefully obey the decrees and regulations that the LORD gave to Israel through Moses. Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid or lose heart! Mark 10:29-30 ‘Yes’, Jesus replied, ‘and I assure you that everyone who has given up house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or property, for my sake and for the Good News, will receive now in return a hundred times as many houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and property-along with persecution. And in the world to come that person will have eternal life.’Matthew 7:7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9 Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him! ~Levite~ (King & Priest)

Who said it?

When we speak or hear stuff that other people input into our lives in regards to advice or how to live, we gotta question where that came from. Some things are stated to us that just aren't what God said. And it's what He says that matters. We should never be out of line with the Bible when we speak. Otherwise it's old wives fables or a lie. Small example: supposedly if you open an umbrella inside a house or building, you'll receive bad luck. WRONG! My King is a sure God and the One whom blessings as well as righteous judgement flows from. 1 Timothy 4:7 says to do away with old wives fables. Bigger example: having money is a determinant or sign of being highly blessed and favored. WRONG! God is our provider, Jehovah Jirah - not money. When Jesus fed the thousands (Luke 9:10-17), He and the disciples had money on them that wasn't even enough to get food for all the people - kind of like not having enough money for bills or to feed your family. But Jesus knew where provision came from. He blessed the bread and the fish, and the thousands were made full along with bountiful baskets of left-overs. If God blesses me with a free car, do I need money to buy a car?Money isn't the need. God is our need. We need God. And to go along with a bigger example: some have spoken that there are others ways to the Father, other ways to enter into the Kingdom of God or into Heaven. NAW! WRONG AGAIN! Jesus is the only way to the Father (John 14:6). We gotta make sure what we speak matches the Word we claim to live by. I think we may visit this discussion again.... (Lyrical Truth)

Increase Your Capacity to Receive

Many times we request "stuff" from God, and become disappointed and disillusioned when we don't receive it. But instead of getting upset and crying about it (which does not help a thing) ask yourself, what did i miss? This is the only relevant question at that point, since God is perfect and can not lie. This is a question I asked myself earlier this week about some things I was praying about.

Here's the revelation God gave me: We don't receive because we don't increase our capacity to receive!

A simple yet profound concept that everyone needs to grasp. When we pray for money, God cannot go POOF! and make money magically appear. He has to lead you to a divine strategy that enables you to find, create, or start a new thing that enables you to get the overflow. If you are praying for overflow in finances, be on the look out for the business idea, the strategy, or the plan God will use to help you get what you need. If you are praying for enhanced lyric ability, get online and do some research so that God can then download revalation to your spirit through what you learn. In other words, dont sit there and wait for God to do a Houdini. Get up and be on the look out for your blessing. Increase your capacity to receive by gaining knowledge that God can then help you multiply into His devine favor.

Pressin' Through!

There are many instances and/or people in life that will throw things your way which can get you off track. Sometimes these actions may be intentional or indirect, but none the less can affect how you percieve their motives. In doing so this can be a demotivator, especially if what you're doing requires the person's support that's doing the harm. From my experience, anything that's going to take you to another level in ANY area is worth fighting for! A sign to know that you're doing what you're supposed to be doing is when there's NOTHING but opposition!!! I mean opposition just seems to be everywhere. That's when the king side of us comes in and makes war and kings are to stay at war for EVERYTHING that's right for them and their family! We can't layback and just let life live us!! IT'S TIME FOR US TO LIVE LIFE! I encourage all to dream again, believe again, ALL that God has shown you about what your life is supposed be like RIGHT NOW! Ask Him to show you how to obtain that which He's shown you. Then PRESS THROUGH and don't leave any vision, dream, or goal unfinished!! ~Levite~ (King & Priest)

I Want to Be Rich!

Today there are many questions regarding the dichotomy of rapping for God and being poor, vs. rapping for God and being rich, and if one is better than the other. So many Gospel rappers criticize others for having money because they associate it with the world and all its corruption. They indicate through their lyrics that they would rather be poor and have Jesus, than have money. But how can we fulfill Jesus request to preach the Gospel to the nations unless we have money to finance the mission trips, record the albums and sponsor the concerts that display the Kingdom of Heaven through our lyrics.

The mistake most gospel rappers make is receiving Jesus the Savior without receiving His kingdom which was the only thing Jesus ever talked about. In short, the Kingdom was presented to us as a gift to restore the dominion we originally had before Adam gave it up. To break it down briefly, God gave Adam dominion over the whole earth and everything was under mans rule. Adam forfeited his dominion to satan by eating the forbidden fruit, which we refer to today as the fall of man. Jesus restored that by teaching us how to live righteously, then dyeing on the cross so we could have full access to the dominion that Adam lost. Unfortunately we are still forfeiting our dominion today by saying things like, “Jesus hates money”.

Dominion is simply ones rulership over his domain. Consider this – If you didn’t have money to pay your house note for 3 or 4 months, chances are you would be evicted ultimately forfeiting your right to live in your dominion area. Another family would eventually move in and dominate what used to be your dominion area. The music industry is the same way. Because we have leaders who in the faith refuse to accumulate wealth to sponsor Gods word and reveal his message to the nations, the secular music industry has taken our dominion area in music. The simple truth is that in order to get it back we need some cash! So to answer the question, I’ll take rapping for God rich over rapping for God poor any day.

Look At Cha Wordz!

The Bible constantly reminds us of how powerful the tongue truly is. I mean if you stop and think about it God said.... and then there was. Since we're made in His image and likeness, that same capability is in our speaking! Have you had nothing but complaints coming out of your mouth lately? How about the songs that you've been reciting... Are they bringing glory to the King or even speaking life into ANY of your situations? I challenge everybody to watch how they talk and also what they're talking about. A food for thought is: A lot of people talk, but they're not necessarily talking about ANYTHING!!!! Shalom! ~Levite~ (King & Priest)

What Do we Talk About

Hip Hop has been talking about the same thing for years. Jay z just said in an interview, "We been talking about the same things for years. It's getting old so now what do we talk about". I encourage young artist to make a shift in the game. Give the people something that's worth listen to, be creative with your music. The majority of the songs out right now are too predictable. We wouldn't watch movies that repeat the same plots over and over again, it would start to get boring. Whenever a movie is released they try to put meaning to them. And make it different from other movies. So stop talking about the same things, be unique from other artist, it will pay off. (Disguise)

What do you require?

A lot of times when we pray we come to the King with a grocery list of things. Though some may happen this is not the way to get His attention! What we should ask more than what we desire, admire, or want is for Him to reveal His plan for our lives. With revelation comes increase.... I charge you from now on to will your life over to do His will. Then you allow His kingdom to come into EVERY area of your life. Matt 6:33! Shalom! ~Levite~ (King & Priest)

Who are you representing?

When people think of you, do they think of Jesus? When people see you, do they see Jesus? When they hear you, do they hear Jesus? When they watch your actions and reactions, do they see the actions and reactions of Jesus. Are you representing Jesus. If our thoughts, conversations, actions, character.... If our life isn't for Jesus, then we're against Him. Don't make it hard. Represent the King, Jesus! (Lyrical Truth)

All These Voices

This week I have been exalting God through prayer every day, multiple times a day in order to keep my focused on where I am going as appose to where I have been. I realize that the biggest enemy against next level living can in many cases be me. Before this week, I would start my day in good faith that God would provide every need, but as soon as something happen contrary to what i was believing God for, I would start hearing all these voices that reminded me that there is no way I can handle all the different things i am working on right now.

Usually they were activated by the negativity around me and my response to it. After I had one negative thought, that would just activate another. Eventually I would fill my mind with all these thoughts about how I could not and would not succeed (You know those voices). The worst thing about this type of thinking is that it eventually spills over into my actions and I begin making irrationally decisions in the way I speak, spend, work, etc.

I am exalting God to where it is uncomfortable, knowing that this is not recommended, but required to change my thinking, my actions, and my life!

Refuse 2 Be Limited!!

We all know that everyday we're constantly reminded of what we can, can't, should be able, or shouldn't be able to do. However, I charge you starting NOW... To never live up to anybody's expectations of you besides what the King Himself speaks to you about who you are. No matter what the circumstance or situation God is bigger and He gave you the power to speak to that mountian (whatever is in your way)and cast it out of your path!(Matt 17:20) Never agian think, "Oh, that's just the way it is"... But now say it is what I say it is because there's power in your tounge and what YOU decree or speak in your own life! (Romans 4:17) Shalom! ~Levite~ (King & Priest)

Prophecy

In my mind I’m fighting it, but from my mouth will only come prophecy of abundance and reminders that God shall supply all my needs. The kingdom of God is so vast and so deep, and I have yet to even scratch the surface as I found out tonight just by listening to Bishop Tudor Bismark speak on the topic of prophecy (speaking into the future and changing a situation).

Lord I love you and I love Your kingdom. If You say sew, I will sew. If You say bring the tithe I will bring the tithe. And if You say give an offering I will give an offering. I will expect You to supply all my needs when I give. For what is a measly rent bill, energy bill, phone bill, or care note to You? Lord, help me to increase my faith to not only give, but to prophecy when I give.(Mission Man)

New Year!

Praise to the King! I've been getting a lot of revelation lately and I believe great things are coming from 5 Tre! My new year started yesterday as I turned 26 years young. I decreed that this year will be the best year I've had and I'm expecting UNUSUAL favor! Stay blessed and walk out the Kingdom!~Levite~ (King & Priest)

Riding the bandwagon to hell....

I saw part of the MTV Video Music Awards the other night and this actor, who was naming a winner for an award, went off on a tangent and started thanking Satan for his darkness and praising and worshipping Satan for who he is.... This actor even asked others to join in this "prayer and praise" and people actually did jump on the bandwagon with this actor. This event was live on MTV and replayed afterwards as well, so alot of people witnessed this praising of Satan. Unfortunately, if some people openly jumped on the bandwagon while on camera at the event then folks at home may have also. There ain't anything funny about it. The gate to hell is broad. We can't jump on the bandwagon to hell. And praising and worshipping Satan isn't the only way this happens. Christ made it clear that if you're not for us, then you're against us and vice versa. I was saddened when I saw and heard that take place....(Lyrical Truth)

Self Confidence = Motive

Ask yourself who am I? And what answers did you come up with. A lot of cats struggle with identities. not knowing who they are, trying to fit in wit a certain clique. Some even turn to drugs, sex, and gang bangen! But it's important that people know what they want in life. Or else it's easy to get distracted, and for somebody to influence them in negative ways. You loose sight of who you are people will try to change you to what they want you to be. (Disguise).

Upgrade Your Thinking

A common misconception is that when God calls us to something big, the process will be easy just because He told us to do it. I’m realizing every day that this is not the case. Whenever He calls us, it’s always to take us to a new level we have yet to experience. In order to function at this new level, an upgrade within our way of thinking has to occur. The longer you wait to upgrade your thinking, the longer it takes for you to sustain at the new level.

For example, God can call you to financial freedom and debt free living, but until you learn how to budget your money and discipline yourself you will never stabilize at the debt free level. The ability to overcome problems is found within the willingness to upgrade your thinking in regards to how you see the problem. Do this through seeking the King and acknowledging Him as your guide. He will do the rest. He has proven this to me on numerous occasions.

Activate Your Faith: Speak the Unseen Into Existence

Thanks Mission Man! I'm overjoyed about my wife's and my son Kingston Ray Matthew Ceaser now fresh out the womb! You know...we each start off living in water, then we get with Jesus and become born again off that living water - the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost gives us boldness to speak unseen things into existence. Both of my children have meaning to their names. My 18 month old daughter is Leila Ivory Ceaser. Leila means dark beauty, and Ivory is my wife's middle name which means white and purity. Before she was born we proclaimed that she would be a light in the darkness, hence Leila Ivory a.k.a. Moonlight! And a light she already is in the lives of everyone thats around her cuz it is Jesus who is the Light of her world. My wife and I speak blessings, Word, correction, and activate our faith over her life everyday - EVERYDAY. We activated our faith and spoke our son Kingston into existence before we ever knew my wife was pregnant with him. On December 8, 2008 I bought my wife a MOM ring with all four of our names and birthstones, including Kingston and his birthstone September. We didn't find out my wife was pregnant until December 29, 2008. The result: we had our son Kingston Ray Matthew Ceaser born on September 3, 2009. What we proclaimed before he was born: Kingston means Kings town and his body is the town where the Most High King Jesus resides (the Lord's temple); Ray means guardian which he shall be a guardian to his loved ones; Matthew means gift of God which he is; and Ceaser for both of my children you can say royalty. Faith isn't magic - it's real. Activate your faith and speak over your unborn children, or their unseen future, or the unseen job, or the unseen payment for a bill, or the unseen need, or the unseen dream come true. Line yourself up to God's way, His truth, and His life and speak the unseen into existence. It's yours! (Lyrical Truth)

Welcome Kingston

Shout out to my boy Lyrical Truth and family regarding the new addition to the household! My nephew Kingston was born on September 3, 2009 in Houston TX. Children are a blessing, but the most interesting part about a child is how they make us mature in our thinking; and through loving them, we have a better understanding of God’s love for us (His children). We will laugh, cry, urge, build, teach, mold, and shape them into what we (as parents) know they can become. They will not always understand, and appreciate it, but in the end they will realize that our actions were intended not for our benefit, but their own. Parents love and cherish your children as God loves and cherishes you!

Dear Lord, I thank you for the blessings, signs, and wonders you are going to reveal through Kingston. We pray for his health as he matures and becomes acquainted with his new family. Began to mold and shape him, and give him incentive NOW for Your Kingdom and the work within. I pray the he is passionate about, and pursues You with all his heart. Give him the obedience of Samuel, the kingdom mind set of David, and the faith of Job as he begins his journey in this life. Remind him of his authority over the enemy and give him a leadership mentality wherever he goes. Let him be a Joy to be around, and a blessing to his family now and for years to come. May this be done and established in Jesus name.

Amen.

Welcome Kingston! (Uncle Mission Man)

No Time 2 Waste....

A lot of times life can have such a demand on us that it can keep us pre-occupied with all this "stuff" that needs to get done. Whether its a new job, a new opportunity or business, or just daily activities. However, we need to stay in tune with the Spirit and know His will for our lives so we don't WASTE time! As you go looking and searching for your purpose your #1 objective should be whatever I do I want to do with excellence and also what is pleasing to the King. As long as it brings glory to Him do it!! ~Levite~ *King & Priest*

Jesus, if you...then I would believe....

Some old folks who knew the scriptures well, yet they still requested a sign from Jesus so that they could believe ~ Matthew 12:38-41. One person devoted their whole life to proclaiming the name of Jesus and His works that would be done and even baptized Jesus, yet he requested a sign to assure himself that his efforts weren't in vain ~ Matthew 11. Some folks who saw Jesus perform many miracles and heard Him teach with authority still desired a sign so they could believe ~ Matthew 27:37-43. The disciples who spent more time with Jesus on earth than anyone else ever has still doubted when Jesus appeared to them after He resurrected ~ Matthew 28:16-17. Do we do the same by asking God for a sign or blessing? "...then I'll know You're real Lord..." or "...then I'll believe Lord..." or "...then I'll live for God." If we truly examine our lives and what goes on around us, we've already received our personal sign. We gotta stop delaying and give our whole life to Jesus and get to work for our Father's business.

What da Kingdom ISN'T...

The Kingdom is NOT a place where His citizens are broke and destitute. The Kingdom is NOT a place where His citizens are sickly or with disease. The Kingdom is NOT a place that's out of reach to those who are His. The Kingdom of God is in you (Luke 17:21) Here also are some scriptures that proves that God wants us to be prosperous in health and wealth! Deuteronomy 30:5, Joshua 1:7, 1 Kings 2:3, Mark 1:14 Luke 9:2, Luke 9:11, Luke 10:9..... The reason I gave all these Scriptures is because a lot of teacher and pastors of the Word don't teach how God's desire is that we succeed in everything we do! The Kingdom of God is not RELIGION!!! Nor some man made doctrine... This is heavy on my heart and spirit to charge you to do your own seeking and TRUST NO MAN... No matter who or what they are...(pastor, friend, etc.) Gone! ~Levite~ *King & Priest*

We're Sorry

To The mothers, fathers, aunties, uncles, grandmas, grandpas, and every fan of Hip Hop. We want to say sorry. So many parents try to get their kids to stop listening to Hip Hop because of it's content, the way it degrades, and it's negative message. In part of 5 Tre Clique we promise to clean up the pollution. And to feed our fans with something they can use in life. To many rappers rap about the problem, it's time to start rapping about the solution.

what TIMEzone are you in?

When moving from one part of the world to another part of the world, we change timezones. When moving from a life in the world to a life in Christ Jesus, we also change timezones. Our clock strikes eternity and our whole mindset becomes eternal as we shift to the desire of being with the Lord forever. So we now change our clocks for everything in comparison with eternity. For example, the TIME it takes waiting for marriage to make love through sexual behaviors with someone is NOTHING compared to ETERNITY! So when patience seems too difficult to obtain, we might need to change our TIMEzone....(Lyrical Truth)

The Now VS. The Dream

Man of God,
Your dream will come, but you first must build a firm foundation, and create a culture of discipline, peace, and love within every element of your daily life (The Now). How can you obtain a dream if in your personal life - your wife, kids, church, business/job, education, etc don't have your undevided commitment and spirit of excellence?

If these things are not considered with the utmost importance (at all times), they create friction between your current state (The Now), and the level in which you wish to go (Your Dream). Meaning "The Now" is not subject to "Your Dream", rather the obtainment of "Your Dream" is subject to "The Now". Conciously take care of "The Now" to receive "Your Dream".

Repent....!

If you take a look at the first words of the King, Jesus, He said in Matt 4:17. "Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!" Repent means to change your mind or the way that you've been conditioned to think! With that said also look towards Romans 12:2, us as Kingdom Citizens can't think the way this world thinks, we're totally opposite. Repenting is more than feeling sorry for what you did, but more about conditioning yourself to think the opposite of what seems "normal" to the flesh! So with that said if you're not in right standing "repent" (change the way you think)and get back in His righteousness.... TODAY! (Levite) *King & Priest*

Stayen on Da Grind

I been looking at some cats with success and of high status. When most people think about the success of famous Athletes, Artist, Actors, Actresses. They believe that things like that only happen to the people who are lucky. But not true! those entertainers, artist, and anyone with a level of high success or famous status, got to that level because they stayed on the Grind! These last couple months I been noticing how 5 Tre's grind payed off. but we didnt get to this level by chilling, WE WORKED! So get up outa bed and get some work done ya'll stay up. (Disguise)

Which came first???

For those who believe we evolved or that humans came from a big bang out of nothing.... Which came first, the baby or the adult? If you say adult then it contradicts your logic that we have beginning stages as infants as we can clearly see day to day with each baby being born. If you say baby then your logic is faulty considering a human baby cannot take care of itself whether feeding, getting around, or remaining safe from danger. The fact is that God, our Father and Creator, created both man and woman. Explore the thought further and continue seeking the kingdom of God and His righteousness; your needs including wisdom and understanding shall be added to you. (Lyrical Truth)

Stuff that Distracts

I'm working hard to eliminate everything around me that has nothing to do with my purpose. We get so rapped up in "stuff"that distracts-from, rather than adds-to. He gives more insight to our purpose when we give more time to His will...Selah (Mission Man)

Keep it Kingdom!

There should never come a point where we're not consistently representing the King! It is not necessary to sound your own alarm so people can distinguish a difference between you and them. You know a good or bad tree by its fruit! So we, being ambassadors of Christ, should never tell people our opinions pertaining the Kingdom of God because the King's Word is law!!! Whether you agree with it or not you have two choices.... Accept or reject it, but never can you change it. So always reverence His statutes, laws, and ways in order to reap the Promise He gave you. Ask God for the Holy Spirit not to only be on you, but in you. Then and only then do you carry Heaven with you wherever you go! ~Levite~ (King & Priest)

Where Did Hip Hop Go

Latley I been looking at these music videos. And I notice almost every rapper is doing and talking about the same thing. I keep thinking to my self, where is the creativity, where is the passion behind the music. What I really want artist to understand is, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE LIKE EVERY OTHER RAPPER! get back to the creativity of Hip Hop. Hip Hop can be used for doing so much more than just talking about the stuff and honeys you got. (Disguise)

the MISmatch!

If you and a little child were gonna fight, you'd easily win and would in fact pound the child to the ground. It's a MISmatch! In order for that child to beat you up, they would have to get a weapon or gather up some more people to jump you. Same thing in the Spirit realm, some people may appear to know the Word and God better than you and try to show you how the Bible contradicts itself and why God's not real. You may be stuck in a MISmatch. So you gotta grab your weapon (the Word) and study up and get some believers who are mature in their faith and know the Word better than you so they can help you fight off the MISmatch. Don't stay stuck in defeat! Dig in! (Lyrical Truth)

Kingdom vs. Religion...

The main thing with religion, and yes even "Christianity", is that people are on a path with an attempt on "finding" God. Their in pursuit to finding something (the Kingdom) and search and search and are never satisfied. However, in the Kingdom God finds us and once we're adopted in our search is finished! We're now sons, not servants, of the Most High! We are now Kingdom citizens! *King & Priest* ~Levite~

Dreams are just a glance into the future

What's Poppen! when I first stepped into High School I couldn't imagine doing what I am now. Honestly I didn't even think of my self being in the industry. If your dreaming of being an actor, actress, doctor, lawyer, rapper, or whatever! Just know that it's you seeing your own future. And that God put it inside of you. As long as you use that dream to build up Gods kingdom, your destine to accomplish it. So keep dreaming ya'll, be easy (Disguise).

Heart Check

Even demons know Jesus is Lord (example: Matthew 8:28-34). So to believe with your heart that Jesus is Lord isn't simply knowing. Physically, we're dead without the heart because it's part of our every aspect of living. So spiritually, we've gotta make Jesus Lord of our every aspect of living. Keep it Jesus! (Lyrical Truth)

Going to the Next Level

Any time God calls you to something, it's always bigger than where you are currently. Old mindsets will try to tell you that you can't do it. Seek Him to give you revelation knowledge - to not only work through it, but to obtain Next Level Living in the process. (Mission Man)

Kingdom Livin'

The good news about living in the Kingdom is that you're free from everday "worry". Kingdom Citizens are assured that their provided for by our Heavenly King! So don't worry about what tomorrow may bring cuz it's not promised to you! Keep doing the Matt 6:33!! Peace. (Shilom) ~Levite (King & Priest)

Break me Down

In order to change old mind sets, the Lord has to break us down and build us back up in his system. That's the only way we can receive the double portion. I'm working hard every day to be fully dependent on Him! (Mission Man)

What a weekend

This weekend has been busy, but God has allowed us to touch many through song and conversation. This is what its all about! Shouts out to Delta Sigma Theta for allowing us to minister at your regional convention this weekend. (Mission Man)
