Question to all current, up and coming, new, and pondering Holy Hip Hop, CHRISTian Rap Artists.
WHO WROTE THAT RHYME? DID THE HOLY SPIRIT SEND YOU THE RHYME, OR ARE THERE HOLES IN YOUR SPIRIT?
Many times we as Holy Hip Hop, Christian Rap artists put together projects, mixtapes, compilations, etc. and we have a lot of bible based rhymes, meaningful lyrics, good singing/rappin hooks, on time content, verses of life and ministy can be heard and felt in many of these songs. But then there are the meaningless, scripture used incorrectly, catchy punch line riddled, it took me 2 minutes to write it, sullen, dull, take me to the water and make me drink that curse word, ministry less songs that grace the on a daily basis.
I can see it now. Sitting in the studio with the pen and the pad or the note pad notes, music on bumpin' loud, and the Holy Spirit nowhere in sight. The ink pen hits the pad and out comes You.
I'll make this short and to the point. If Our God is not petitioned by His Son Jesus to send a Word(rhyme) to You(us,we) by way of the Holy Spirit then save it. Keep it in your personal stash in da whip(car) and you and your friends can have an alright time when you get together. All I'm saying brothas and sistas is Spend time with the Lord, more than the time you spend in the studio without Him. If He don't send it, Don't write it. Think about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Living by the Spirit’s Power Galatians 5:16-26
16 So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves. 17 The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, so you are not free to carry out your good intentions. 18 But when you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under obligation to the law of Moses.
19 When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, 21 envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!
24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. 25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. 26 Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another.
God Speed. I Love You
