v.i.c Wobble Baby...Not in My House
Disclaimer:
Please excuse the "grammer errors" you will find anytime you read the term satan. Capitalizing the first letter of a name is a sign of respect....I have none for him...
Soooo, lately I’ve been seeing a lot of Facebook posts showing
a line dance to the song “Wobble.” Most of the video posts I’ve seen include
our older generation doing a series of seemingly fun dance steps. The dance
moves are so entertaining that if you weren’t careful, you would completely
ignore the lyrics playing in the background.
The words “wobble baby” and “back it up” stood out to me. My
red flags were raised because (at the
risk of sounding a bit stereotypical) you generally don’t see older white
women dancing in “back it up” videos. I decided to search YouTube for the official
video and Google the rest of the lyrics to the song.The search results once
again confirmed what I’ve already said a million times before “satan is wickedly clever.”
There are actually two official videos. One that takes place
in a 1930’s jazz club scene with females twerk jerking and wobble dancing.
The second one sets the scene in a variety of places
including a nursing home, a park, a high school gym and club. The dancers in
this video comes from all walks of life ranging from backpack wearing school
kids, teen girls, and urban street kids to nursing home patients and plus sized
females. I watched these innocent children and impressionable teen girls wobble while the sexually explicit lyrics were subliminally implanted in their heads.
After watching both videos and picking my jaw up off the floor, I began to break the lyrics to this song. Here are some of them:
A girl told me that
a man who that could dance.
Might could possibly
get down with the tool in his pants.
Led em to the bed
while saying my scriptures.
Cause I leave ya
holy like you pray in the temple.Want beef? I move with the led of a pencil.
Get in there (repetitive vamp)
satan blindsides his hidden agenda in music with beats and dance moves that appear to be innocent fun. Before you know it, you find it yourself saying and doing things you wouldn’t normally do. It’s important to pay close attention to what you allow in your home and into the ears of your children.
Sexually explicit music like this puts us at risk of
becoming victim to its message. There was a cunning attempt to make this song
appear to be innocent fun by including young children, impressionable teen
girls and older generational in the compilation.
People are so quick to forget
satan was the minister of music in Heaven. He understands music’s powerful
ability to set the atmosphere in any setting. There aren’t many places where
music isn’t found. You hear music in elevator, stores, in movies, ring tones and
even in car key ignitions. Music is a very important part of life especially for
children of God. Psalms 150:3-6 tells us
Praise him with the sound of the
trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
4 Praise him with the
timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
5 Praise
him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
6 Let every thing that
hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.
Psalms 67:5-6 says when the praises go up to God, the
earth will yield its increase. We need music. But only the kind that will edify our spirits and send praises to God.
Oblivious ignorance is not an excuse. It's a choice. Are you willing to take that risk and let your family become infected with
satan’s deadly antics?Monday, July 29, 2013
Judgment Call
- Should I hire this person?
- Are they trustworthy?
- Should I join this church?
- Is this the right decision for me?
Our ability to teach, preach and live the word of God has been hindered by the fear of being called the overly religious judgmental Christian. While we have NO right to condemn a person to Heaven or Hell, we are obligated as Christians to warn people of actions that could lead them to Heaven or Hell. Satan has managed to twist God's instruction and the meaning of scripture by influencing the world to do the exact same thing our children do whenever they are confronted with the wrong they have committed. He has taught them to "pout" and his book "Satan's Excuses for Sin" is quickly becoming a number one seller in the world.
- You're judging me.
- Jesus hung with the sinners. Why can't I?
- It's a process. I'm still working on some things.
- Don't Trip. He Ain't Through With Me Yet (I hear this one even made it to the movies)
- That rule is in the old testament so I don't have to agree with that one.
Christians are ignorantly falling for this snare of the enemy. It is important that we continuously stay in our word for instruction on how to deal with these poor excuses.
The following scriptures require that we make judgment calls based on characteristics and the actions made by our personal selves or the person(s) we've been assigned to minister.
I Thessalonians 5:14
Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
I Thessalonians 5:22
Abstain from all appearance of evil.
I Timothy 6:3-5
3. If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to the wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
4. He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
5. Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
It is time for children of God to reclaim their God-given authority to effectively and unapologetically minister his word boldly in spirit and in truth. Yes, God is love but never forget his love isn't always filled with milk and honey blessings. Sometimes, God shows us his love with hard core discipline and instruction. Remember God chastens those he loves. (Hebrews 12:6) God knows that by exposing the worst in us, he is actually bringing out the best in us.
Know your God. Know your Rights and operate in them both whole heartedly!!!

Ten Rules to Live By
So here I am. It's the wee hours of
the morning and God woke me up just so that I could reflect on some things. A
lot has changed for my family over the past three years starting with us moving
from my husband's hometown to a new city. While we have no regrets about the
move, we've lost a lot since we made that decision.
From the outside looking in, you
would think everything that has happened would be the breaking of us but
actually it was the making of us as family. Our ability to persevere comes our
spiritual roots and the good ground in which they are deeply
planted. Travis and I grew in a church were our parents, leaders and
church mothers worried about our souls first and our feelings second.
Their tough love and two-edged words of wisdom prepared us for the harsh world
and the tough times to come. And believe it or not, our toughest times
wasn't in our finances, marital issues, health scares or after the
death of our loved ones. Our darkest hours came when those who we thought would
love us forever decided they didn't need us anymore. Growing up, we were
prepared for the persecutions that would come from the enemy's
camp but when some of those from our church world turned their backs on
us...we hit our breaking point.
But God.
God is notorious for always having
that "ram in the bush" and for us, he had several. In the recent
weeks, God reunited us with spiritual mentors from our past and introduced us
to new ones for present day. Their words of wisdom, love, prayers, support has
helped us to generate ten rules to live by. And here they are:
1.
When you don't know what to do, seek
God. When you are in need, ask God. When you don't know what to say, be quiet
and listen to God.
2.
Christians don't keep their friends
close and their enemies closer. They keep their friends close and their enemies
confused. Why? Because the enemy will never understand love.
3.
If it looks like a duck and quacks
like a duck, be careful, it might be a wolf in sheep's clothing.
4.
Their "no" is God's not
yet. Never lose heart.
5.
Remember Jesus didn't say a mumbling
word while being persecuted. You'd better not either.
6.
Vengeance belongs to God and if you
take action, he won't spare the rod....(against you that is).
7.
The battle is not yours but the
spoils of war is if you let God fight it for you.
8.
Never cry over spilled milk or the
"friends" that stole your cookie. Let them have it. God has better in
store for you.
9.
You can't be a child of God and a
punk too. Stand firm on his word no matter what.
10. When the day comes to forgive those who have lied, betrayed,
back stabbed, rejected, neglected and spat on you..do it quickly and with much
sincerity of heart.
Please understand, this post was not
written for pity. The post was written in praise. I once had someone
to say, "Bridgett, you don't have to write about your bad
experiences." To which I respectfully replied "Yes I do. This is my
testimony"
My life is not picture but most of
the time, it feels that way. If it had not been for the testimony of
others who had gone through and overcame, we probably would have given up. I
know that if God can do for them, he can do it for me too. I hope our testimony
encourages those of you who reads this. Always remember, just because life
may not always give you the roses you asked for, doesn't mean your blessings
can't be found in beauty of daisies.
