Forever Starts Now

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 20:48:46 PST

What on earth could such a vague statement mean? Forever starts now? How?!!! Here's what I wrote when I made a new beat with the exact title: Knowing that as Believers, we will spend forever with God, we have to live and have a relationship with Him; We have to live with the end in mind. We also need to trust and believe God that we can get a glimpse of His blessings while we are on earth, be it healing, true joy, etc. Forever starts now; Live with your end (in Christ) in mind. The end of the world is coming, and forget all the nonsense that people are saying about when the end is; nobody knows except God. That being said, I'm not...

Sex, masturbation and lust - What you don't know

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 21:00:29 PST

NOTE: Some things in this post are for married people only!!! If you're not married, you should not have any type of sexual relationships. Yes, oral sex counts. Yeah, kinda awkward introduction... but very necessary :D ... and yeah, it need to be said #dontCare lol Therapists, some pastors, psychologists, Hollywood and the like are all in the same rock-band; they're telling everyone that the key to good sex is to watch more porn, masturbate, lust, etc; All lies. I noticed that I have been posting a lot of videos recently and have been doing less personal writing. However, when I come across videos like the three (3) that I...

Jefferson Bethke, the author/poet who composed "Why I hate religion but love Jesus" was interviewed on CBS and gave a good explanation of his poem, and the context in which he used "Religion" in the viral video. Apparently, he's got another video coming out soon, so keep em eyes pealed :D

Json - Making Me Over (feat. Ad3 & Tedashii)

noreply@blogger.com (TBB) — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 09:58:33 PST

Json's newest single from his upcoming album "Growing Pains" is more than amazing. Growing pains is being released on February 21, 2012. Json - Making Me Over featuring Pastor AD3 and Tedashii My Thoughts It's so different that I love it soo much. It's like an anthem but it's got a worship-y vibe. The production is soo clean too. More thoughts Soli Deo Gloria. That's a phrase that I use a lot and will continue to use... a lot :D. God is making me (and you) over; the work that God has started, God will complete and bring to perfection. This song is one of my Theme songs... I love it. God is moulding me into the person that He sees...

Be thankful for everything no matter how trivial

noreply@blogger.com (TBB) — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 18:50:06 PST

Although this is not how God works, although God does not bless us based on how much we tell Him thank You and show our gratitude, although God blesses us and keeps us because of His mercy... imagine if we did not have the most "trivial" and negligible things we take for granted like our heart beat, like breathing, something as negligible as being able to sit-down or even move... imagine if God decided not to forgive us of anything or sin we commit? How would life be? This video sums up what I was trying to say (successfully or unsuccessfully) about being thankful to God. We need to be thankful big big time to God for everything and anything...

Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Spoken Word Video

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 13:28:44 PST

All glory to God for giving man wisdom like this; for revealing His heart on religion through Spoken word. God deserves all glory; this video hits and hit me well. Watch it and read the transcript for the video below the video. There's a reason this video has gone viral almost instantly; Please watch it. And his other videos are "wow" as well. Video Transcript What if I told you, Jesus came to abolish religion? What if I told you getting you to vote republican, really wasn’t his mission? Because republican doesn’t automatically mean Christian, And just because you call some people blind, doesn’t automatically...

Broncos vs Steelers 2012: Tim Tebow has God on his side (@TimTebow @TrueVined)

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 21:27:01 PST

Tim Tebow is a name you should be very well familiar with by now. If you're not, fix that asap; google Tim Tebow and read the wikipedia page about him. There's nothing that makes me love the dude as much as his proud stance in support of God and godliness. Tim Tebow gives God the glory for everything and every win he gets; tebowing in every game to clearly show his reliance on God. Well, if you take a look at the video highlights (below) from the 2012 game between the Broncos and the Steelers, you'll see that God was on the side of the Broncos. God indeed lifts up the humble, and Tim Tebow, God bless him, is very...

My awesome beginning to 2012

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 04:59:17 PST

2012 has not been all perfect, I'll be a big liar if I told you that it has. But it has been good and full of blessings. There's one thing that God has placed on my heart big BIG time: To grow. To grow into Him. To press for our relationship to be at its best and I know this is very possible. Thanks for the grace to have faith God. But that's not all. Over the last couple of days, I've met a couple of believers and lovers of Christ online. I have discovered a lot of new blogs, new musicians, new samples on my computer that sound great. Back to the people, these people have encouraged me. I love seeing people blogging,...

Pray in times of anxiety - Men of faith

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 05:46:58 PST

IMAGE SOURCE I just saw this post on a facebook page called Men of Faith. I was about to ignore it but felt led by God to read it and I did. I just learnt something that by God's grace will always be with me. Pray in times of anxiety. Everyone on earth, believing in Jesus or not, has at some point been anxious about something and felt bad about something; I have, more than a few times. The funny thing is that the last thing on my mind is prayer usually. Another funny thing is this: The Bible verse (Philippians 4:6-7) that the author of the post referenced is a verse I am familiar with. Isn't it funny and amazing when you learn...

This video ministers to me and touched my heart. There's something about the Truth (God's word) being spoken [through whatever medium (rap, singing, poetry, preaching, teaching, etc)] that gives peace and makes me [and you] happy. Lost Soul by Saylah featuring Chris Jenkins is an amazing song. Enjoy.

Why did you use your hours the way you did?

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 03:07:00 PST

I read this awesome post (I still am reading it at the moment) about how we manage time. The post is awesome, please read it [especially if you're some sort of student]. The question that hit me the most on that post is this: God asking me "Why did you use your hours the way you did?" As of right now, I would turn red in embarrassment and guilt if God asked me that question now; I guess God is. I think this post is to help wake some people up. Me included. Why did you use your hours the way you did? We know better, way better. When we're wasting time doing something we shouldn't be, we all know. When I'm in my room on my desk...

7 easy tips for recording at home

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 22:41:03 PST

There are tons of rappers and singers out there now. Some (and I don't mean a few) are very good but cannot afford to rent a studio or pay a producer. Well, having been there and done so for a while, here are 7 easy tips, very basic and almost abstract tips for people recording at home: Note: There are tons I could mention, but the most important ones probably are: 1. Pray before you start and while you are recording. 2. Learn to project your voice... different from shouting or yelling. This takes a lot of energy; eat before recording lol. Swoope is a pro at this. 3. If you don't have a pop-filter, consider wrapping your...

It's finally here. High Society has been buzzing for a while [especially in the Christian rap arena]; they're not a new name on the block and neither are its members. Sho Baraka, Swoope, J.R. and Suzy Rock make up this group. Drum roll please... the album is called: CIRCA MMXI: THE COLLECTIVE by High Society Collective I am listening to it right now and it's good sounding... I plan on reviewing it soon. Get it from Noisetrade now. I respect all the artists in High Society Collective; this album doesn't change that. High Society Collective - New Free Album

I don't like the term "New Year Resolution"

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 00:11:12 PST

I do not like the new year's resolution "hype" that usually builds up around this time every year. Don't get me wrong, I very much like the idea of trying to change bad habits, or setting goals to improve yourself and your life, but I do not like the idea of people going on such missions on their own; without God's help, failure is almost guaranteed and yeah, people get depressed and stuff... and that leads to more ...stuff. Firstly, I'm not here to make you feel bad whether or not you're a Christian who has made plans (or some New Year's Resolution) for 2012 (hello 2012). I am here to implore you to consider (and I pray...

Today is an awesome day; today is Christmas. Today is the day that we remember the birth of our beautiful Saviour and Lord, Jesus Christ. Today is awesome. Jesus is the reason for today. Jesus is the reason for the season, this season. It's not about Santa. It's not about gifts. It's all about Jesus. It's all about being like Jesus. If being like Jesus means us dressing up as Santa and giving gifts, so be it. Jesus has a big heart; He loves people. Okay, I don't want to make this a long post, so, I'll say a quick prayer for you. Done. Have a lovely Christmas. Don't over eat. Give something to someone. If you have excess food, give to...

December 21 2012 - The New "End of the World"

noreply@blogger.com (Bezalel) — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 20:52:07 PST

So there's a new day that some funny people somewhere decided will be the end of the world. Hmmm... wouldn't that be perfect if we knew when the world was to end. To the Christian, the end of the world would be something that would be looked upon with joy because that will be the beginning of eternity with Jesus. To the unbeliever, it could mean that those who knowingly sin will keep on sinning till some days before the end, then "change". God will not be toyed with. God sees your heart and mind, your thoughts, everything. God wants you to be in a relationship with Him. Saying a prayer alone nor anything else WILL NOT SAVE you. Repenting...

Swoope, a very gifted rapper and producer has officially released the album cover for his debut album. The release Date is March 20, 2012. In his highly anticipated debut album, Collision Records artist/producer, Swoope is calling on Chrisitans to “Wake up.” Wake up from their dream states of longing for heaven, while ignoring the call to be the hands and feet of Jesus. “Wake Up” will take you on an emotional journey that will engage both mind and heart with Swoope’s cognitive lyrics and score-like productions, it’s a call to a lifestyle that we have been redeemed to live. Here's the album cover; it looks pretty fresh to me. This album...

The grace God has given to the Skit guys never ceases to amaze me. Every video of theirs has this "ZING!!!" to it. This one is no different. The line that had me the most is this: "It's not about you, it's always about me, that's grace..." And... Jesus saying "What I did on the cross was meant to take what was unforgivable and make it forgiveable". Here's the video:

Pray for them. I'll list the male and female celebrities and link to the website for you to read the articles. Personally, I'm very glad I found this article. God is telling someone to stop supporting "celebrities" who don't glorify Him. Side-note: I strongly believe that every Christian should be Pro-life (not pro-choice or worse). Ladies first: Female celebrities who support abortion: 1. Scarlett Johansson. This one was a shocker...
