Where
the righteous is on the throne,
the
people rejoice!
But
how can the righteous be on the throne,
When
righteousness is divided, against itself?
And
a house divided against itself cannot stand!
How
can the righteousness be on the throne,
When
the righteous allow itself to be divided,
To
be sponsored against righteousness,
By
anti-righteous forces,
For
the righteous to be divided against itself,
For
the unrighteous to rule,
reign,
to steal, kill and destroy?
There
is the use of subterfuge and schemes,
To
divide in order to rule!
Oh
that the righteousness will learn,
Not
to be used against righteousness,
In
order for the righteous to rule and reign,
For
the people to rejoice!
How
can the righteous be enthroned,
When
the righteous in carnal bids,
for
enthronement, refuse to listen,
To
Bishops, Reverends and General Overseers of righteousness?
How
can the righteous rule reign when they refuse,
To
listen to the voice of the Ultimate Ruler?
The
righteous in their carnal follies,
have
refused to listen to the voice of reason!
Rather,
they listen to the noise of their divisions!
And
the result is perpetual division,
For
evil to rule and reign ad-infinitum!
The
lot of the righteous,
Now
and forever is lamentation,
Blame
game,
Wailings,
As
the unrighteous receive,
Hailings
in the kingdom,
Of
the unrighteousness,
For
underdevelopment,
Retrogression,
Divide
and rule,
To
reign and rule ad-infinitum!
When
will the righteous,
Learn
and be wise,
Like
the children of Isachar,
that
understand the times,
So
that they will not serially and severally,
Fail
forward like the dog
Destined
to die,
That
will not listen to its owner’s,
Hunter’s
whistles?
How
many times,
How
many years,
Shall
righteous politicians,
Continue
to waste their energy,
Funds
and time in the pursuit,
of
shadows,
of
doing politics the old, carnal and evil ways,
To
the detriment of their souls?
When
will they,
Like
the prodigal,
Righteous
politicians come home,
To
the Ultimate Leader,
For
directions,
For
discerning spirits,
To
pull them away from being useful idiots,
In
the power-games without eternity in-view,
That
is a pursuit of mirages,
and
shadows that have been the journey to no where?
Our
politicians have wandered far away,
From
listening to the voice of the Ultimate Leader!
The
righteous has allowed adulterations,
That
pollute righteousness at wasting of fortunes,
At
Arabian teas,
Touch
and kill fishes,
At
wine and women,
At
voluptuous consumptions,
At
shishas and all manner of drugs addictions,
Forgetting
the injunction that we should be different!
We
have by our own volition,
Polluted
our righteousness,
At
unequal yokes with the unrighteous!
When
will we come home,
Never
more to roam?
God
is opening wide His arms of Love,
To
stop them from cyclic political wanderings,
So
that they will not roam anymore!
Are
the righteous politicians listening?
Are
they ready as true soldiers of righteousness,
To
stand at the post of the Ultimate Leader of all politicians,
And
power at such a time as this?
The
kingdom suffereth,
When
the righteous are not on the throne!
And
Progress, and Development,
Have
been knocked down by greed,
And
primitive accumulation and avarice,
Becomes
the norm,
Or
the new normal,
There
will be no light,
At
the end of our dark tunnels!
The
time to change is now or never!
But
there must be a note of caution,
The
righteousness we are advocating for,
Is
not for tribalism,
Nepotism,
Bigotry
and narrow-identity politics,
Or
corruption!
For
we are the light of the world,
A
city set on a hill that cannot hide!
In
vision, mission and blue-print.
May
God,
Our
God of justice, equity and fairplay,
Allow
us to fulfil His prophetic destiny,
For
Nigeria to be great in our time!
