Accuser Of The Brethren Poem by Manger Born

Accuser Of The Brethren



The biggest obstacle that I face is the battle in my mind - the Accuser of the Brethren always brings it back up when I try to leave the past behind.
He reminds me of all the things that went down when I was out there in the world - things that I did and that was done to me; it all started as a little girl.

He says:
Didn't I molest you when you were three and rape you at the age of fifteen?
From an early age I've tainted you and you're NEVER going to be clean!
You were raised in a house of iniquity where drugs were hustled and sold.
You're never going to have a normal life - there's no WAY you can break the mold!
And didn't you abort that child - the one that you conceived at seventeen?
That makes you a murder…and you're a felon too! You've been to jail times three!
And didn't you smoke weed, and do coke and pop pills, and get drunk on alcohol?
You were an addict and you'll ALWAYS be one; you CAN'T stay away for too long!
I killed your mother with a drug overdose, and your father has been strung out for years.
It's in your genes to live life like they did; it's your DESTINY, your BIGGEST FEAR!
You saw a psychiatrist for years because I had you bound and extremely depressed.
I even made you lose your mind when you could no longer take all the stress.
And aren't you the girl who stripped for 4 years using her temple for financial gain?
You took off your clothes and swung on those poles while the dope boys made it rain? !
You married a man in the name of the Lord, and then you got a divorce.
You've zigzagged all over the STRAIGHT NARROW PATH; there's no WAY you could get back on course!
AND you have 3 children from 3 different men; two of which were married to other women…
A WRETCH like you could NEVER represent God; you went WAY too far with your SINNING!

When those accusations rise up in my mind, I pick up my sword and fight back! I've learned that through the Word of God, I can make a COUNTERATTACK! So I say:

Yes, you did violate me in my younger years and you took something precious from me…
But I'm washed in the blood of Jesus Christ now; you can't haunt me with those memories!
And yes, I aborted a child at thirty-four and seventeen, but I remind you of Moses and David
Who had men murdered at their command and hand but God STILL used them to lead Nations!
And yes, I was highly addicted to drugs because they helped me to lessen the feel
Of the pain that life had inflicted me with, but ALL of my wounds God will Heal!
And yes, you DID kill my mother with drugs and they also took my dad away
But God has freed me and told me I shall not always live NOR die that way!
When my mother and my father forsook me, then the Lord thy God took me up.
And he gave me a Peace passed understanding; he has OVERFLOWED my cup!
It's true that for years you had me bound and under psychiatrist care,
But God has restored a sound mind to me and ended that hell of a nightmare!
And I DID have 3 children from 3 different men, but the Love I was seeking in them
Is the Love that I've found in Jesus Christ which has filled me to the brim!
And I DID lay down for too many men AND committed adultery
But my body is now consecrated to God until my Boaz comes and finds me.
And God has released me from my marriage - in case you're wondering why…
The man I had married was NOT the one God sent - that Judge had ordained a Lie!
Devil, you say I can't find rest in God cuz I took my sins too far?
Well, DESPITE the condition I ran to him in, I find that I'm SAFE IN HIS ARMS!

You've accused me with facts and I have to admit that in all you said you didn't lie
But Jesus redeemed me anew from your curse, and his blessings WILL lift me on High!
Oh, Adversary, you thought you had won the battle in my mind because you held the middle ground?
But Jesus Christ is the FIRST and the LAST and He played you like a clown!
You DID put deep strongholds in my mind and sealed them with you r locks,
But the Truth has set me free from you, and I broke out of EVERY box!
Satan, I'm here to serve you notice - you stole my stuff and I want it all back!
As a matter of fact, I want double for my trouble - now empty out your sack!
Not you, Satan, but JESUS CHRIST is going to end MY story…
Now get back from me - you can go gnash YOUR teeth as I'm filled with God's Honor and Glory!
Oh, yeah, by the way, I'm pregnant again - but this time it's not from a man, you see.
The EXALTATION of GOD'S SALVATION has been implanted in ME!
NOW I'm a Royal Priesthood; I'm God's masterpiece, and I'm walking out HIS Master plan!
I've been RESTORED BY JESUS CHRIST as a vessel for the work of HIS hands!
The Lord has put His Spirit in me, and appoint ted ME to go tell the good news.
That if Jesus can cleanse me from all of these sins, He can do the same thing for you!
I've been overshadowed by the Lord they God to deliver His ministry
And He told me to Breathe, and push and push past ALL adversity…
Past ALL the contrary circumstances in my life that don't reflect what I'm saying
And deliver the ABUNDANT LIFE; then they'll know that when the Great I AM promises or commands…
He AIN'T Playing!
