SWEET RELEASE
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

The Lord wanted to take me,
But you would not let me go,
With machines drugs and tubes,
My death you tried to slow.
So much in this constant pain,
I really wanted my release,
But you acted so selfishly,
And denied me eternal peace.
I know that you will miss me,
But I must accept my Crown,
Please turn off the machines,
And no longer hold me down.

SUPERHUMAN?
by Bill Kochman

Sometimes you may possibly wonder,
How I keep going year after year,
What power keeps driving me forward,
Is it just that I don’t have any fear?
No, I am not really some superhuman,
I possess no powers or even a mask,
The only thing I can really tell you,
God’s Spirit equips us for each task.
In the flesh I am weak as a noodle,
You’d be so surprised if we ever met,
But when God pours on His anointing,
I may say things you’ll never forget.

SUCK IT UP!
by Bill Kochman

This situation is getting out of hand,
Young radicals angry across the land.
The President-elect won fair and square,
Misguided marchers don’t seem to care.
Their true fight is against democracy,
No respect for the law, can’t you see?
The electoral college is how it works,
Why do street puppets act like jerks?
Equal representation E.C. guarantees,
Protects us all from voter monopolies.
So suck it up, and act like real men,
In four more years, you can try again.

STUFFED IN A BOX
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry
01-10-2017
Deeply stuffed into a dark box,
Is what so many Christians are,
So afraid of offending anyone,
Their preaching only goes so far,
They cut corners and compromise,
Leaving hard truths cast aside,
Ignoring what the Lord so taught,
Spiritual light they try to hide.
We must preach in love it’s true,
But a balance must also be met,
Jesus was both a lion and a lamb,
This you should not ever forget.

STRIVE FOR YOUR CROWN
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry
04-12-2014
In this world, fame and fortune is the game,
But rich or poor, our end will be the same.
Whether we die young, or last and grow old,
We all end up six feet under, dead and cold.
There is more, than what the world can give,
God’s desire, is that for eternity we live.
But to do so, we must partake of His Grace,
Believe in Jesus, and run in His great race.
The Angels cheer us on, as we live each day,
Listen closely, and you may hear them say:
Strive for your Crown, it is all you can do,
Strive for your Crown, He commands you to.

STRESSED OUT WORLD
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry
11-25-2016
Sometimes we have to wonder,
Why the world is such a mess,
Hunger, wars and terrorism,
So many people feeling stress.
Leaders don’t have the answer,
Things always remain the same,
But if you ask me personally,
I’d say it’s just the Devil’s game.
Hate and greed are everywhere,
We don’t abide by Golden Rule,
Love and caring bind all wounds,
But we have been Satan’s fool.

STRANGE MANIFESTATIONS
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry
06-25-2018
Oh how they love their manifestations,
As they stomp, shake and jerk about,
They say such things are of the Lord,
But my friend, I really have to doubt.
They say they are slain in the spirit,
As they are falling all over the place,
But when I watch some of those videos,
It is just like seeing Satan face-to-face.
What is wrong with all of those people?
Do they really not know how to discern?
They should ask God for His true Spirit,
And His wisdom so that they can learn.
For not every spirit comes from above,
Liars and deceivers there are so many,
The Bible warns us of these vile things,
Make sure your church doesn’t have any.

STOP WHINING!
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry
12-12-2016
You stubbornly decided to go your way,
What God thought, you really didn’t care,
But now that He’s put the pressure on,
You dare complain that it’s just not fair.
Well, what did you think would happen,
When you poked a finger in God’s eye?
No, He won’t let you get away with it,
Regardless of how loud you even cry.
You foolishly asked for the spanking,
So be quiet and take it like a man,
Maybe the next time you’ll be smarter,
And you’ll obey Him the best you can.

STOP LOOKING AT THE WAVES
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry
08-25-2014
So many kinds of people,
Become depressed everyday,
Tho I give them the answer,
They don’t hear a word I say.
They seem to be so busy,
With eyes fixed on the waves,
Maybe they have forgotten,
That only dear Jesus saves.
Yes, this world is depressing,
And it gets worse by the year,
But if we’re focused on Jesus,
We really have nothing to fear.

STOP GAMBLING!

You need to take control,
Of your gambling addiction,
If you don’t do it soon,
You may face an eviction.
So totally out of money,
You won’t even pay the rent,
And if other bills pile up,
To court you may be sent.
Collections will hound you,
They will take every dime,
A jail cell may be calling,
If you run out of time.

STINKIN’ FLESH!
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry
09-12-2014
One day Satan came after you,
Pounding away in your poor ear,
He got you looking at yourself,
And exactly what did you hear?
Oh yes, you are just so pitiful,
And you can’t do anything right,
So just give up and surrender,
Why even try to put up a fight?
Forget about your hurt feelings,
Forget about your stinkin’ flesh,
‘Cause such carnal-minded thinkin’,
With God’s Spirit just doesn’t mesh.

STILL NUMBER ONE
by Bill Kochman
https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry
11-20-2016
While presidents and PMs may come and go,
And rivers are born then stop their flow,
There is one thing that you ought to know,
Our God above still runs the whole show.
He rules the world from behind the scenes,
Setting up kings and at times some queens,
Tho we don’t understand what it all means,
It is to His Will that the whole world leans.
From the rising Moon to the setting Sun,
As each planet and star makes its daily run,
We come to see after all is said and done,
Our Heavenly Father is still number one.

“And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads, And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross. Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said, He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him. He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.”
Matthew 27:39-43, KJV
“And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, Save thyself, and come down from the cross.

Mark 15:29-32, KJV

For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.”
Galatians 6:12-14, KJV
“For he [Jesus] is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.”
Ephesians 2:14-18, KJV
“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.”
Philippians 2:5-8, KJV
“Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)”
Philippians 3:17-19, KJV

Colossians 1:19-20, KJV
“And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”
Colossians 2:13-15, KJV
“For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.”
1 Peter 2:21-24, KJV
“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

“And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them, If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple. For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him, Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish. Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace. So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.”

Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied. Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that our prayer should not pass through.
