After I posted the song's lyrics in the other thread about him, I had the same feeling.
This man, Tonex is crying out for help, but the spirit behind his pain is being poured out among those listening to him sing.
Whlle watching him on YouTube singing, that the 'spirit' behind the song is hypnotic... just watching the people in the audience as they were 'caught up in it' how it was 'trancing' them into another realm.
CAUTION ~ ~ ~ Huge RED Flag ~~~~
They were listening to words which sound right... to music in the melody of 'Love Ballad'... they were being enticed and brought into another place by a differnt spirit giving it entry into those caught up and off guard...
The devil is so SUBTLE... Jeepers Creepers ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
There are so many people who love God and want to 'worship' Him and here's satan coming in to deceive them, while taking them into another place.
I can't help but wonder how many people who get caught up in that song, ended up feeling depressed and not knowing why.
Folks who are gay, have the same testimony. That they don't have peace until their surrender to 'who they are', which is homosexual. They say that the torment in their lives stops as soon as they surrender to being homosexual.
HOWEVER.... that's not so.
What's happening is that satan will not allow them to have peace with God. satan fights and torments and wrestles with them with the full intent of them giving up in the battle. As soon as the person 'moves away' from God and surrenders to satan (i.e. the homosexual spirit), then satan stops tormenting them. This is where the deception lies. A person who struggles with homosexuality is not struggling with God, instead, it is the devil struggling with them to keep them in that sinful lifestyle.
Tonex without realzing it was revealing and admitting this in that interview. What Tonex did not admit was that it was satan struggling against him, not Tonex struggling to be right with God. Tonex shared that there were many who prayed and tried to cast the devil out of him and it didn't work. Well, it's Tonex who has to walk away from satan and not look back, but to keep it moving.
WHOOOAAA.... ! ! ! that's why God told Lot and 'em' to not look back as they were leaving Sodom and Gomorrah. Looking back keeps them in bondage to the sin of homosexuality. God HAD to make Lot's wife into a pillar of salt, reminding folks that they can not move forward looking back.
Where's Iwanthealthyhair67 and sidney... Nice & Wavy and Laela Come read this and reflect on it for me....
TraciChanel, Health&hair28, please comment.
Please tell me what you think regarding the revelation I have on Tonex's song. I'm listening...
Shimmie, this blessed me in more ways than you can imagine. Thank you.

I agree with this .. and that is with any sin. I tried to listen the song when it was posted in the other thread and when I clicked on it I listened to a few seconds... Now I'm reading these posts, I can understand.
Well, the thing with the underlined, Shimmie, is that a person has to want to be free from the oppression of demons that have a legal right to them.

Iwanthealthyhair67 your so on point with your response but my line of thinking comes from folks who say they love the Lord but then do nothing.You see someone hurting all you say so fake like oh Im praying for you and not actually try to help the person.I know when I was in my darkest depression I wouldn't attempt to reach out to folks esp blacks bc of such a cliche approach.Not saying other races don't but what I have dealt with its not nice.
I would love to be open in my journey but I haven't arrived at that stage which is why its personal.I write here alot but it's in rhymes because to truly voice my thoughts and journey a many which I have seen here even will stick their noses up.I struggle I fall.I know everyone does to a extent but I find mine to be something worst.I know God has dealt with all types of foolishness so I can at least take comfort in that.
My experience this week even as much as I want to share I know I can't..I look forward to having the platform to share one day..

Maryland just passed same-sex marriage.
Today, there are about 7-8 (more or less) states that allow same-sex marriage.
There are homosexual venues. There are homosexual neighborhoods. (In Chicago, we have 'Boys Town'.) It's starting to feel like homosexuality is 'normal'.
When one points out that homosexuality is a sin, one is deemed as "discriminating against a group". One is made to feel like one is "narrow minded" and overly "conservative". In the Off Topic forum, next door, some are celebrating and saying "it's about time it passed".
I don't feel like commenting in that thread because I don't want to receive any backlash. Because my opinion wasn't asked. I would really only comment on homosexuality in the confines of fellow Christians or if someone personally asked my belief.
However, we are supposed to expect persecution, right? We are supposed to be "salt" of the earth, right? At what point does one sit comfortably on the sidelines watching all that is going on ... versus at what point do we speak up to non-believers, or even believers who may be confused? Do we only speak up when asked?
My mind hurts. That is all.

I Chronicles 29:11
"Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything that is in the heavens and the earth; Yours is the dominion, O LORD, and You exalt Yourself as head over all. (New American Standard)
Once again we're treated to David's public accolades concerning his God. There are two words I want to mainly focus on in this verse: victory, and dominion. Even using a secular dictionary, victory is defined as: the overcoming of an enemy or antagonist; achievement of mastery or success in a struggle or endeavor against odds or difficulty. Dominion is defined as: supreme authority: sovereignty. All of us as believers must admit we have seen God lift us against the odds time after time. The best way to really see God is to remember your personal victories. David never compared God's working in his life to His working in the lives of others. Your testimony is just as miraculous as anyone else's. Sometimes the miracle is that God spared you abuse or addiction! This declaration of David was expressed in front of everyone. You have made it this far only because of the victory afforded you and the dominion securing you. I believe we will experience more victories and greater dominion when we praise God openly for what He's already accomplished on our behalf.

Hi Loolalooh,
I'm learning that we speak or be quiet, as led by the Spirit of God... we will know it's God because we'll be convicted to open our mouths or shut it. Words under the conviction of God are seeds to be planted, for whatever that purpose is...to heal, encourage, admonish (not condemn) or edify. Sometimes we won't know why we say it but it's heavy on our hearts to release it, no matter what, not seeking praise or thanks. We can't worry about the outcome of what people think when revelation comes, because it's not our battle but the Lord's. We all have divers spiritual gifts, but are all in the heat of the battle just the same.

@GM focus on God, ppl will disappoint us, they will fail us. As human beings we are all fallible, don't look to people, your help cometh from the Lord. I had to learn this the hard way, but I am glad it's a lesson I learned. He alone is your strength, no one else.
Also like you because I am hard on myself I can also be critical of others, I pray God gives us the grace to extend to others that he extends to us.

Where do you and Precious Wavy 'find' these messages? They are awesome and I look forward to what you are going to share next.
Hey loolalooh... please don't let this get you down. I'm in Maryland and I purposely kept my Maryland residency to join the fight against this.
It's not going to go through. I won't say too much now and especially not on this forum, however there is nothing for them to celebrate. O'malley pulled some 'illegal' stunts, there was a lot of arm-twisting, threats, and even bribes to 'force' / persuade legislators who were voting against this to change their votes to support it.
There are a lot of 'loose cannons' in Maryland's legislature (especially Gov. O'Malley's wife...she's about to open wide on something that will destroy him...
). Even more, there are those who are about to blow a huge whistle and expose much of which has been done in the dark. (Mark 4:22). One of things that I am so very proud of are the large number of African American Ministers and Lawyers who stood their ground and supported Traditional Marriage which is Pure Marriage, and please be assured that they were absolutely wonderful. The gay agenda is so angry with Blacks.... who cares? It's just grieving to see the African Americans who are being 'puppets' for the gay agenda. It's just sad, for the battle they are in is not for them, it is against them. They are being 'used' and I seriously mean they are being 'used'.
First the gay agenda tried to use the persuasion that gays and Blacks have the same experience. Ummm, since when does gay equal Black or vice versa? Folks were not 'falling' for that lie and trickery. The gay agenda is livid against Blacks who do not support them and I mean livid.
I'm so proud of my Black community who would not bend, buckle, or shuffle to their [the gay agenda's] agressiveness. There is absolutely no 'yezzz sah' mr. charlie gay, yezzzz sah'... I'zzzzz wit choo'.
The gays were so pensive and agressive in Annapolis; they had rounds of folks stalking and filling the hallways, using intimidating words and gestures towards their opposers, they were like demons in utter confusion.
The debates were hot and heavy, however, like I shared above, I am so proud of our Black Church Leaders and Black Lawyers, who teamed up and did not back down. One of the strongest Churches is in Prince Georges County, MD.... Pray for them. They are doing a tremendous job fighting for what's right.
The gays are scared, for this a 'false victory' and they know it. Laws and rules have been broken and will be exposed; this bill will be repealed and rendered null and void. When you have to lie, bribe, threaten, strong arm, to get something, that is a sure indication that the gay marriage bill is wrong and it shall fall to the ground and die... in Jesus' Name it will.
Keep praying for God's rule and for God's total intervention. Pray for the Leaders who are in the battle for keeping Marriage Pure and Protected. They are working so hard and I am 'there' in full prayer and support.
I'm laughing at what you said about 'OT'... calling it 'next door'...
Too cute. I've haven't even been there in about a week; I've been too focused on our Prayer Line here and other things in my personal life. Let them have their weak kool-aid celebration. It won't last.... Trust me... it won't last. If this is all they have to celebrate, especially as African Americans, they truly have a limited value of themselves and their self-worth, let alone the worth of the African American Heritage. They have a very limited 'foresight' into their futures. Why would someone forsake their culture for another right that has no life or promise?
This is not a victory for them [African Americans], let alone anyone, of any race or colour. But especially not for the Black race who is already weakened by so many other tragedies. Only those who 'awake' to Righteousness will survive.
For every knee shall bow... and call Him Jesus! Jesus is Lord,

Thank you for this post. Ladies, don't let the devil fool you into attempting this battle alone. Two are better than one, a three cord strand is not easily broken (Eccle. 4:9). Everyone is imperfect, but there's one perfect. As long as we all stay submitted to the perfect one, we will get there!!

Amen, you've got the secret right here lady! Yes! You know what blows my mind about God...He loves mercy! He delights demonstrating his mercy to us. Micah 7:18. I know I need his mercy continuously...so we have to put it in action when we relate to others as he does for us!

I donno what else to add other than folks should have known that Tonex was 'off' years ago his style was always flamboyant and over the top he often appeared androgynous many attributed that to his 'ar teest' creativity I just got gay and confused...back then that song was his hearts cry, today he's agreeable with his sin and decided to 'come out' ...I pray that he cries out in repentance; "I yield I yield I can't live in sin any more"...
After I posted the song's lyrics in the other thread about him, I had the same feeling.

Just wanted to share 
Well I have been reading the bible everyday since Sunday (thanks to a suggestion Shimmie made!) and I just have to say after the 2nd day I started feeling right again.
I am turning 30 this April and had planned a bday outing with my besties to NYC for dinner, dancing and drinks. I had confessed in another thread about my battle with alcohol but still was planning on having atleast champagne on my bday. Well, can I just say that after reading the bible and feeling the conviction of the Holy Spirit I WILL NOT be doing what I was gonna do lolol I have rearranged my plans to something still fun but sober fun! I also heard God's voice on a matter and experienced sum extra favor at work this week.
God is good and I somehow forgot that these past few months smh...glad to be back!

I'm believing God for change. If I just focus on Him and go to Him for everything, I mean EVERYTHING big and small, things will start to change. Not necessarily my circumstances, but my attitude towards those circumstances. I believe that He will also give me hope for the future if I make Him a priority. I'm asking for so many things but I need to get back to the basics of making Him top priority in my life, not just saying to everyone around me "God is first in my life." Seeking His face, not just His hand.

I really wish my time would some how be on God's time.My focused self can't enjoy the journey at all.All I can focus on is the lack in my life.I lack money,social standing,and power.I have dreams and aspirations that I feel are going no where fast because of lack of patience.I know some old folks will say oh it takes time but I'm old 26 isn't young at all.I know people younger than me who have far more than I could even wish and are able to enjoy the life.I'm tired of merely existing.I am grateful that I do have a little but I want to be able to have more.I don't want to extremely old before being able to enjoy life.I wonder how quickly I can be ready and grow so that I can be able to live.I know in the so called waiting room of life,God uses that time to grow you and such.It's been over 6 yrs since I have even been near a man and its taken several to get into the career field I desired.I really wish God would just show me all faults so they can be corrected so I can move on to the happy life Im tired of being unhappy.Frustration right now is at a high because of all I see in life and at times here..I wonder if I will ever reach or get a one day.

^^^u kno what helps me when I start to feel like this GoddessMaker? I visualize myself taking all those thoughts, worries and concerns in my hands and literally handing them over to God. I constantly say "I submit these concerns to u God" throughout the day
Fear and worry go hand in hand and are not of God. The enemy wants us to focus on the issues of life because it makes those issues appear to be GIGANTIC which can make God seem smaller. Give God those concerns! U don't have to carry them around! It makes me feel lighter when I do this and kno that God will only reveal to me what I am ready to receive/handle
