The Vision and the Ministry (Updated Saturday January 9th 2021) We are all blessed with talents and gifts and as Christians, our purpose in life is to glorify God first and foremost, as well as to bless others with the gifts that God has given us. It's hard to realize the talents you have until others help confirm them to you. I believe revelation comes from God Himself and confirmation comes from/through man. God has given me a passion for rapping and poetry (Therapy - Prayeth - They Rap) and a burden for today's youth. With that, He has given me a vision to preach the sermons that He has laid on my heart in hip-hop (Holy Inspired Praise - Healing Our People) format, a sermon that can relate to young kids and our current generation. In order to effect (affect) change, we need to transform the mind's of our youths because they are the ones that will change the world. The moral decline of our nation (and world) calls for drastic measures. We need to reach our youths and bring them back to the path of righteousness and purity. God has called me and I have answered Him. He has given me a vision and I have taken the step of faith. With the help of the church, the body of believers, a great impact will be made if the youth can get their ears tuned in to the lyrics that God has inspired me to write for Him (to advance the Kingdom of God). I'm ready to stretch God (or Im ready for God to stretch me) to the limit with this ministry and I know that He will answer my call because He has promised me that if I call to Him, He will answer me and show me "great and unsearchable things that I did not know (Jeremiah 33:3). My ministry is called Words That Build because the words we speak are so powerful. The world speaks words that kill and tear apart, and I'm here to speak words that encourage, heal, and build. The tongue is one of the most powerful weapons we have. Forget about weapons of mass destruction; if people spoke words of love and actually loved their neighbors, would there even be wars? We are all accountable for the words we speak and I have made up my mind to not let any "unwholesome talk come out of my mouth, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it will benefit those who listen (Ephesaians 4:29). My vision is that every youth (or everyone young at heart) in America and even worldwide (made possible through the internet) will have access or an opportunity to listen to the ministry of Verbal Chemistry starting with my very first album, "His Favor, My Offering," because the words I speak are not my own. The words I speak are from Jesus Christ and are life changing. "Divine inspiration...Christ gave His blood, I give my perspiration, combined with patience, my lyrics will nurse the nation back to health. Verbal Chemistry

Lyrics
Track 3_Wisdom (His Favor, My Offering) Lyrics written by: Verbal Chemistry Music Produced by: Urban Noize Entertainment Now if anyone of you lacks wisdom you should ask God who gives to all generously and without criticizing and it will be given to him. (Bridge) Wisdom is mine, controlling my mind; Wisdom's divine, it's written on time; take what you want, take what you need but please...leave Wisdom 'cuz Wisdom is mine (Verse 1) The Bible, the scripture, the Word; decipher, encode it, it's yours; remember the verse, I said it before; the man who looks in the mirror, forgets it, ignores; is doomed, the fragrant perfume the Word exudes; commune the Truth, the things I used to do, not excused, but became a test, a trial that the Judge would bring me through; so Wisdom, stand in the streets and shout to the rooftops; the man will be weak if he doesn't sell what he has to get what you got; you are that treasure that can't be bought in stores, not because you're too hot; people just don't know what they're in for and choose not to follow your lead; they rather keep you indoors, but tomorrow they'll see; that the reason for their sorrow and grief is that instead of putting you first in the drivers seat, they rather borrow the keys (but not me!) (Chorus) I Lean not, I Lean not, I Lean not on my own understanding; 'Cuz He will, 'Cuz He will, 'Cuz He will, direct my paths... 2x (Bridge) Wisdom is mine, controlling my mind; Wisdom's divine, it's written on time; take what you want, take what you need but please...leave Wisdom 'cuz Wisdom is mine (Verse 2) The ways of man, crooked corrupt; look at the cops, they're looking to cuff those lacking sense; the way you raise a man, Book in his hand, wouldn't he stand detecting the heat instead of running, retreat like a deadbeat, supporting his fam? There's more to a man than the lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh, the pride of life; we need men who will give God everything until nothing is left; they will ride and die for Christ, 'cuz Christ is the air and you aint really whole until your're touching His death; and that's the breath of life, the promised abundant; victory from the sound of the trumpet; what's promised is coming and the coming of the Promised is near; so get Wisdom and stop guessing; His Spirit sealed my fate, the blessing of knowing I have real estate in Heaven...(Now that's an investment!) (Bridge) You gotta get Wisdom, you gotta get Wisdom (2x) (Chorus) I Lean not, I Lean not, I Lean not on my own understanding; 'Cuz He will, 'Cuz He will, 'Cuz He will, direct my paths... 2x Wisdom is mine, controlling my mind; Wisdom's divine, it's written on time; take what you want, take what you need but please...(leave Wisdom cuz Wisdom is mine) 3x
