SUMMARY: A POEM by JOANNE AITKINS
Birds of a feather all flock together,
Flesh kings are just the same.
They fl atter each other and promote each other,
And they do it for power and gain.
These carnal kings are false leaders,
Not led by the Spirit, but the fl esh.
If you are not prayerful and reading God’s Word,
You’ll fl nd yourself being enmeshed.
Enmeshed in their plans for their fl esh kingdoms,
Plans which they say are “awesome” and “great”.
But saints, this is only a form of godliness,
Wake up before it’s too late!
Who do you quote in your every day life?
Is it your favourite fl esh king?
Or is it your Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ:
The one who redeemed you from sin?
These false leaders are spiritually bankrupt,
They’ve long left honouring God’s Holy Word.
They instead preach sermons to your felt-needs;
From their pulpit God’s truth is not heard.
For after you’ve sat under your fl esh king’s sermon,
do you feel closer to your Lord?
Or are you reeling with laughter,
having been entertained
but in the process robbed of hearing God’s Word?
Ask the Lord for His discernment,
This is what we need.
So we can be unburdened from these fl esh pharaohs;
Turning to Christ to truly be freed.
