The Old Covenant

The old covenant 

Poem by Amira Haddad

In the beginning of my life

I had a rough start

All areas were rendered with strife

Demons whispered with taunts

My pain increased daily

While everyone ignores and flaunts

The old covenant was a living hell

I was a classic people’s pleaser

In case you couldn’t tell

I tried to move past the generational curses

But the harder I pushed

The pain reimburses   

I have had enough with this generation

Crying out to Lord Jesus 

He hears the desperation

And delivers

He has set the path straight

Where lies are intolerable 

Thus, will determine my fate

Lord Jesus

I thank You for setting me free

The truth is staring before me

I am not a joke

As many would utter

All because I am different

And not a cookie cutter

Anything to destroy my faith

Anything to divert my focus on You

The devil is mad

so he must convince others I am evil

How pathetic and sad

Lord Jesus

I praise You with my voice

Within my free will

You are my wise choice

A true friend

Lays down his life

And sticks around until the end

But You dwell in me forever

And forever

The old covenant is broken

No lies or diversions

Yet, the world thinks I’m joking?

Keep laughing

Because the end of the wicked is coming

Ignore the truth while you can

Tickle your own ears while humming

It irritates the demons to see the light

So many attempts to kill my faith

Yet, Jesus enables me for a good fight

The warfare is real

Do not be deceived

Satan is a liar and loves to kill

Heavenly Father,

Please have mercy on this generation

They are deeply lost and confuse

In many situations

The blind follow the blind

But why be so unkind?

The love for many has truly gone cold

Jesus is hope

And the truth shall be told

It aches me to see the mass deception

No matter where you are from

You can have true redemption

Jesus Christ can break the curses

Beginning a new chapter

Amen!
