Confessions of a Christian Rapper

Yes, that is the title for my new book " Confessions of a Christian Rapper"  This book reveals a lot about my past  and present life. Seeing the increase of black christian books, i felt the need to tell my story. I wanted to tell my story to all who would listen to it.

I have been through so many trials and just like you, some battles I did win, and others I lost. I have lived a decent life up till now, and I intend on following God to find out what else he has in store for me. In this new christian book i have opened up about a few things that many don't know about me. And i hope that this new book will help someone who has been through, or who is going through the same situations.

This  christian eBook is about the life of a christian rapper. This rapper has a interesting background story. This amazing book is full of interesting tales of money, drugs,sex, relationships, music, work, and family and proverbial insight from the lessons of his life.     

New christian books  are climbing high and it seems like they are more in demand in this present day. Many people are seeking the truth, because they are starting to realize all of the lies that are being told to them through every form of media they are using right now. Christian rappers,and christian hip hop music is on a steady increase in searches and sales. More youth are looking for new and more positive music to listen to. And i don't blame them.

This book has many lessons that you can learn from. Especially my mistakes. Christian rappers are of the elite that has been overlooked for a long time. I look forward to putting the stamp of  the love of Jesus Christ on as many hearts as i can do. Christian are an elite group as a whole that has not been silenced.


It will be ready by Christmas, so if you would like to be on the mailing list to be the first ones a copy of this book please click on the link below,

or send an email to "confessionsofarapper@Gmail.com" and put "I want your book" in the subject line.

Why didnt God destroy Satan from the beginning?

Why didnt God destroy Satan from the start? well, when you look at it, he had several reasons. 1) Satan had rumored and rattled so many of the angels that, if God did destroy him, it would have more of the angels questioning God's authority. 2) God wanted to give the angels a chance to really see the motives of Satan for who he really was, so when judgment came, there would be no excuse or pity on his punishment. freedom of choice was the greatest gift that the creator has given man, besides procreation, but it also comes with GREAT responsibility. When you choose to follow God and his will, you will be rewarded for your obedience. But if you  choose to follow rebellion, then punishment will be your judgment. There is no good reward in following rebellion.










 The angels watched as Satan deceived Adam and Eve, and how he took dominion of this world away from them and continued his battle with the Almighty to this day. They even saw how he came back and forth from the earth looking for his next prey. Look at what horrible things he did to a man named Job, took his family, all ten children, his livestock, made him ill with boils  and sores all over him, and made his wife talk crazy to him, and his friends couldn't understand either. And last but not least, look at what he did to the one who tried to save him from his own destruction; beat him, whipped and gorged him, disfigured his face, many people spit on him, made him carry a cross. Not only did he nail him to the cross, he stood it up on the highest point for all to see! 


 That was the moment that they knew he was a liar and a murderer. They knew that God was righteous and holy in his ways. Blessed are  the ones who didn't believe Satan's  lies. But sad for those who did follow him and got cast out. He had every opportunity to change but he chose otherwise. Hopefully some humans will be smart enough not to follow and receive his same punishment.




We can never know God's plan for things until we start doing our part. Then little at a time, he gives us pieces to the puzzle as we go...stay diligent and humble yourself. God will show you honor and glory for your obedience to him.

What does the bible have to do with me? Part 1

If i had a dollar for every time i have heard this question, the top 100 billionaires couldn't touch me!! but the answer is still the same... it has every thing to do with you!. Dont believe me? i figured you wouldn't, so i will break this down into easy to understand segments, this is Part 1. You have heard the expressions "There is nothing new under the sun" and "History repeats itself" which are actually facts. So many people laugh and say that the bible was written by man and that God is only a myth in the mind of humans. And that the bible is and outdated book because its over 2000 years old. But think about it..... IF THE BOOK HAS BEEN AROUND THIS LONG, THAN IT MUST HAVE SOME SORT OF POWER BEHIND IT TO ENDURE THIS LONG. Through a couple of illustrations you will see the similarities from 2000 years ago to the present day.





What is this? this is a ancient coliseum in Rome, where they held there sporting events, among other things.It is well over 2000 years old.















Now well over 2000 years later, what do we have hear... a similar coliseum which holds sporting events in our present day.
































Next is this olive tree. This well-known olive tree has been calculated to be about 1,600 years old. It still gives fruit (about 30 kg per year), which is made into top quality olive oil. No matter how old something is, when it works for the good of God it will always produce!!






















Is anyone familiar with the dead sea scrolls?


Here are some facts about the dead sea scrolls:


The Isaiah Scroll, found relatively intact, is 1000 years older than any previously known copy of Isaiah. In fact, the scrolls are the oldest group of Old Testament manuscripts ever found.



The Scrolls can be divided into two categories—biblical and non-biblical. Fragments of every book of the Hebrew canon (Old Testament) have been discovered except for the book of Esther.


The Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in eleven caves along the northwest shore of the Dead Sea between the years 1947 and 1956.They have been called the greatest manuscript discovery of modern times.


and here is a excerpt from an article about the scrolls and their findings about Jesus Christ:

"The discovery of the virtually identical wording "the Son of God" from Luke 1:32 and 35 with the scroll found buried in a cave in A.D. 68 stands as a tremendous witness to the early existence and transmission of the Gospel records within thirty-five years of Christ. If the Gospels were written and distributed within thirty-five years of the events of the life of Jesus (as the Gospels claim) then they stand as the best eyewitness historical records we could ever hope to possess. It would be almost impossible to distribute the Gospel accounts to thousands of people in Israel within three and a half decades of the events unless they were true accounts. If the Gospel records were untrue, many witnesses would have stood up and denied their accuracy. However, the records of the first century reveal that no one denied the facts about the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. In fact, all of these ancient historical records confirm the truth of the Gospels."






















This is for you who are on the fence and dont know what to do. Trust and have faith that Jesus is the way of life.I will have much more to share and show you in these next segments. God does love us all, and this is living proof of it.



People will tell you that God is a myth, but they dont understand that God will forever preserve his word. The above information supports my statement. Im not here to force anything on you. but facts are facts.Im here to share knowledge because i care. God says "My people will perish, for lack of knowledge". Man will always fall relying on his own knowledge and understanding. I dont want to see that happen. stay tuned for part 2.

Thank you to the men you stand and do the will of God.

Thank you  for stepping up and being a Man of God. As a Man, there are many strenuous tasks that we men must do to provide for our families and ourselves. Thank you for not leaving your children abandoned. Much love to you making sure your son or nephew grows to become an excellent man from your example. Much love to the men who help the orphans and stray youth on the street. Taking the word of God to the  teenagers , and young adult males that are strung out on drugs and help turned their lives around.

Thank you for  taking the time to mentor to as many of the young men as you can. God bless you for  assiting your wife with what she needs and being the rock of  the family that God made you to be. Thank you for sharing your dreams  with the youth to become better men.


Young men, take heed to what you learn from the Men the help guide you in a Godly path. When  someone takes time to show you how things are done, appreciate it and  be fruitful with your wisdom and labor. When no one  takes the time to talk to you anymore, than you get worried. And most importantly young men, please  give thanks  and love to the men who care for you  and praise God for putting them in your life.  We need more young men to step up for the generations coming after you to help guide them in a better way. And thank you to the older generations for not given up on the younger generations.God bless.

The time is now...get moving!!

I have been feeling down on myself lately because I know i haven't been in the Word like i ought to and i have been feeling the effects of it. i do talk to God, but when i look back at the last couple of weeks, I know that I have been making it real difficult for me to hear him now.i have been letting my circumstances overshadow my focus on the Word. I have asked him to help me with managing my finances better, to help me with expanding my ministry, and to also hear him more. I have been getting answers to some of my prayers, but i now realize that i can get stuff from God, but not have God,because i havent been listening to him when he speaks. He can allow me certain things that i ask, but if I am not fully into the Word, then i dont have him. I understand that he wants to spend time with me, so therefore the feeling should be reciprocated. but all to often, he gives us things we say thank you, but dont spend any time with him. Just like the woman who was with the rich man, who was not only rich monetarily, but also spiritually. He gave her things, but she never spent any time with him. Only when she was going through something, thats when she would call on him, but she never took the time to listen to anything he said. every word out of his mouth was an answer to any problem she had.
but because she knew what he COULD do, but did not KNOW him, she never grew. So today i was looking for the word that would help me overcome this cloud of despair that sits above me. I went to Joyce Meyers daily devotionals and read it, it was good, but my spirit was telling me to go to Kenneth Copeland's website. Lo and behold lol, it was right smack on point!. it just confirmed exactly how i was feeling and going through, WOW! the WORD IS POWERFUL!!! im realizing that I have to get myself submerged into this Word. the Lord has told me that he has so much blessing and favor he wants to pour out on me, but until I learn how to better manage them and get more into my Word, he cannot give them to me now. People tell me that they enjoy my music, they love the words, the enjoy watching me ministering in person. My goal is to get 100 churches or more before the end of 2010 that will allow me to come minister my music to their congregation. Im just getting started and i have a long way to go, but i know that i have to get back into his Word like i was. it has been a wonderful journey and there is no way in the world that i would stop this for anything. Satan CANT WIN!! God hurts when we fall, but he hurts even more when we dont get back up and continue to walk with him when he's been with us the whole journey. the Word for the day is exactly what i needed to hear to get myself motivated. I hope that it does the same for you. The time is now...get moving!!






From Faith to Faith -- Daily Devotional


May 11, 2010



Never Fall
Kenneth Copeland

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed.

– 2 Timothy 2:15

A lot of people have been playing games when it comes to the Word. They claim to be faith people in public. But, in private, they never open the Bible at all. Then, when a time of trouble comes and they try to stand on the Word, they fall flat on their spiritual faces.

Well, the time for playing games is over. It's time for us to realize that real faith involves action. James 2:20 says faith without works [or corresponding action] is dead.

If you want the kind of faith that will keep you on your feet when others are falling around you, you need to take some action where the Word is concerned.

First, you need to study. You can study the Word in many ways. You can not only read it, you can dig deeply into it with concordances, Greek/Hebrew dictionaries and other study guides. What's more, if you have a cassette player, you can walk around half the day listening to teaching tapes. It's only one way of study, but it is a powerful one.

The second thing you need to do is go where the Word is being preached. When Romans 10:17 says "faith comes by hearing," it's talking about the preached Word.

Whenever I start feeling surrounded by problems and I'm having trouble hearing from God, I drop everything and find some place where I can hear the Word preached. I've received more answers from God that way than I can count. Even though the preacher may not have been preaching about anything even remotely connected with the issue I was struggling with, some Word of Scripture would suddenly start my thoughts in a certain direction. I'd realize, "That's the answer to that problem I've been dealing with for the past six weeks!"

Third, you need to start confessing the Word you've heard. Find the promise of God that covers your situation and then declare it out loud as if it had already come to pass in your life.

Get serious about the Word of God. Study it. Go hear it preached. Confess it. Become such a diligent workman that the devil himself will look at you with fear and say, "There's one believer who's not playing games anymore."
