“You can seek out the things but miss God” – William McDowell
This is deep as the deepest blue sea. Process this. What is love? God is love. This notion takes me back to my 1st record deal. I slayed the auditions …
My first ever audition at 21. A major audition. God told me to decline the contract which I disobeyed, but heavily paid for by ripping my larynx in a week. It took me over a decade to recover.
Praise be. I am almost there and have picked up more new blessings along the way (Songwriting) but the price was a high one. My world class beautiful golden voice.
Recently received a “Double Honorary Doctorate in Divinity & Music” from a Bible School in Africa for my work in Music for “If You Need Me” & my Humanitarian work at MercyfulGrace Records / Blog.
I’m grateful God did not completely destroy my gifts. He made a deal with me in the aftermath when I pleaded for #MercyfulGraceRecords. Obedience is better than sacrifice. https://anthonyeverest.com/subscribe/

Beware of double agents, fake allies, jealous friends, projecting conflicted self-haters, saboteurs and plants in your circles sent to confuse you and spy on your business, ideas or progress.
Especially, some of those church ones who hide behind organised religions and religious idioms with neferous pysop agendas.
Not knocking off good God fearing one’s that are leggit. But how do you know? Not everyone who is with you is for you. I saw them all in 2020.
Those excessively nice leaches. Passive aggressive narcissists, bullies and sociopaths sent to you to run you under. Infiltrators, users, liars, abusers, professional cons, accusers and manipulators. Call the scribes. He who has ears, let him listen.
Pray them out of existence. Clear out your friends list. I don’t care if they are gay or straight, black or white. Don’t live your life in distress.
Merry Christmas Everyone
Anyone trying to put you down is already beneath you. Thieves don’t break into empty houses. Know your worth. This is the truth. The truth is in love. God is love.
Merry Christmas. May your Christmas Merry and May your New year over take them. I am covered by the blood of the lamb.
No weapon formed against me shall prosper. Amen 🌟❤️🇳🇬💞🇬🇧👆🏾💯.
I will always keep it real and 💯.

I put a pebble in your heart A river in your head The edges of a sword They are double and word
Try as you may What will be will be You are not the end Nor the beginning
Wait for it The day you cry The way you try Late but nigh
I must admit You had me knot I lost the thought Till myself I caught
For my eyes see But they are blind For my ears hear But they are deaf
For I know Who holds my heart Out in his hands Wait for it
I put a river
in your soul
to pour.

There is always this uncomfortable silence from folks weighing one down to unspeak for fear of reproach but how can you demand respect without change or raising awareness.
If you are not speaking up, and out, against the diabolical atrocious murders by the law enforcers, on black communities; and ethnic minorities, globally, then you are part of the problem, and not the solution.
Question is, are you still human, and humane? Or just numbed by it all? Your silence is compliance. Your compliance is acceptance. Your acceptance is murder! Your murder, is blood on your hands. Like I said, your children could be next!!!
For the first time in my life. I never thought it was a crime to be black ..’

“The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There’s also a negative side.” ~ Hunter S. Thompson
Seriously, I have a major concern with a certain group of non professionals who run around as pimps, calling themselves pros.
They are a concern to the entertainment industry. Clouding valuable space with dross, and confusion, when they ought to make room for more serious, seasoned, hard-working professionals with second to non, first class; work ethics, buttressed with a genuine love for creativity, art and humanities.
We ought to expunge them to stop them from denigrating the good will and reputation of the industry, at large for a quick buck or two!
They remind me of this famous quote.
“The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There’s also a negative side.”
As long as my peace is in love. Yaweh, Lord God Almighty. I can rest gladly with thanksgiving, with delights; in the gifts from my fruits. For they all belong to him.
And through, and throughout the mysteries, they minister love to him. On, or, off stage. Amen.
I believe in the power of now, the overture of time, and to life. I’m fearfully and wonderfully made. Love inly; only, is my ovation.
A single candle can light a flame. Even in the dark. The spark of eternity. The hope for generations ..’
Isaiah 31King James Version (KJV)
31 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek theLord!
The worst thing I ever did to myself was lie to myself that I had no challenges, haters, or fake friends. Now I’m #woke ..’ – #In14Ways

8If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.10If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.
God is the greatest.
Every day is a gift. Our bodies are clothes for the air we breath. It belongs to dust.
There is nobody like God. I don’t care how holy you are. We solely exist by grace. In it we find mercy and grace.
Love is the greatest gift money can’t buy. It’s absolute. Love is a vibration that’s eternal.
It’s infinitely freely given. Paid for. In truth. No one owns love. Try it for yourself. Love is friendship!
AnthonyEverest.com
Love is transparent. Love is not self righteous. Love does not judge. Love does not project self hate. Love isn’t adversarial.
Love is fearless. Love cares. Love is timeless. Love never dies. Love is divine. Love is freewill.
Love is a seed deep rooted in God. You are nothing till you love. But love, is not a door mat. You are not; until, you understand.
Love is #God ..’ – #In14Ways

Finally, Meeting the Mayor of London 🥰🤦🏿♂️ #today in a VVIP style for Xmas Lunch. Best Xmas experience, ever, yet. Gave me Christmas presents, picked up first thing in the morning and dropped off back home. Speechless. Thank you #SadiqKhan. ..’ – #In14Ways MX #HNY
*OVERVIEW* ✍🏾
RELATIONSHIP IS 50:50.
DO NOT ASK FOR WHAT YOU CAN’T GIVE.
NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS #2020Vission.
Sticking up for myself (yourself).
Dismantling exploitation.
Keeping it real.
No offence. Xmas is 365 days a year. It would be hypocrisy to me, to assume Xmas day; is different to any other day of our lives, in essence: when the values are love. Always. Do not start me off, this Xmas. Merry Xmas & Happy NY wishes to everyone.
This year has been quite a tremendous one. It’s challenged and fortified my purpose in life, generally, from my creativity to my relationships with folks. Likewise, it re aligned my own values.
I just want to take this moment to thank all my friends* and fans. My real genuine friends who came through on all accounts. Also, my aquaintances and colleagues – too
Sadiq Khan with Anthony Everest ..’
Over time, some acquaintances became good loyal friends, while some colleagues became friends and vice versa.
One thing I’d like to point out on this post, expressively, at this moment is that, I do not care for two faced relationships. I am very forthright about it. It will never change.
Life is too short for that mess. One great friend is worth more than a million fake friends. Seriously.
If I dimiss you in private, so shall it be in person. What you see is what you get. I make 150 percent time for those who matter to me, online, or offline; while the rest is my charity and tolerance.
I understand we are all imperfect, so I do give my uttermost good & great graces, cuz I may need them too, one day.
My close friends even chastise me routinely, always for making escuses for bad people. Even my mother says the same. It’s the bad remnants of my bad religious mis-conditioned flaws, working in progress; to be utterly uprooted.
However, if and when it comes to insulting, my own, intellegence, that’s a wrong move. The gloves are off. Just saying. Love is not a door mat. Love is a verb not a fantasy. Love isn’t a two faced noun. Neither, am I.
Everybody wants to be loved. Do unto others as you want them to do to you. That’s why I am very, real and not in the two face business. No fake friends allowed is my #2020Vission. Too old for that mess. I’m super woke and conscious.
If by what Jesus went through is any milestone, I can tell my work is cut out. Time is of the essence; and time is money. I do not and won’t use people. Therefore, no one is using me. All that glitters, is still not apparently, gold. So I have made my peace.
Real life and circumstances reveal peoples motives around you – respectfully. Respect is a two way street.
Merry Xmas. May friends be plenty and true and may you find peace, love and joy in the new year.

May love lead us to those who truely love us and away from those who masquerade as thou they truely #care. I see you in every #frame ..’ – Anthony Everest

Cultural ignorance is not my problem. Paying no further attention to it is my challenge.
The hyprocrisy of these mis-educated, white jesus, victims; requires major professional psychological, intervension.
So, leave me alone, and out of your, antiquated self-righteous, delusions. Project them in a clean mirror. I am not your #shrink ..’ – #In14Ways

I really don’t say this often cuz it’s not my style. Some People don’t know I have seizures sometimes; when I am singing; or talking, but I mask them well, or, at least, I try.
At times, when I see my vocal flaws, I remember how far I got better at masking them; than focussing on the flaws. I could easily give up on life itself, but instead, I try my best, and leave the rest. I made that oath in high school.
I say this to encourage others to do the same. I don’t live in a Utopia of delusions. That shirt doesn’t fit anymore. Self love has taken over. Awakened!
“If You Need Me” is my new forth coming single coming from my new Ep “Oblivion”. It’s a beautiful song I wrote.
One of the the hundreds of beautiful songs I’ve written over the years. I write songs, daily. 2 or 3 at times. My best friend is my witness. Believe me when I say so. I’m indebtedly grateful to God Almighty!
It’s a heavenly divine gift. It felt right; to put it out now. The world needs love 😍🤗 – #In14Ways
