SLOW down, take it EASY, read THE WORD with intent, and diligence; give it time to meld into the being; it IS imperative TO allow it to seep into the heart, the spirit, the being!!!

Thanksgiving for the LORD's Favor

Psalms 138 (A Psalm of David)
1/ I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.
2/ I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
3/ In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
4/ All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.
5/ Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.
6/ Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.
7/ Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.
8/ The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me:
thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands... AMEN!!!
One CANNOT earn GRACE, it is HIS own ESSENCE; a gift, still, IF one claims to be IN HIS GRACE, we ARE to, or, OUGHT to, be reflections of that GRACE! 2 CORINTHIANS 6:1, tells us not to take HIS GRACE in vain! This means, living in LOVE, morality, ethics, virtue, righteousness, and, spiritual improvement, TOWARDS, spiritual maturity, WHILE, visibly BEING as LIGHTS, beaming OF *GOD*, beckoning the world, TO THE LIGHT! Righteousness MEANS, conduct in conformity with *GOD'S* WILL, and, "Be HOLY because I AM HOLY!", therefore, indicating that knowledge, wisdom, and, effort, DO, apply TO the righteous!!! NEVER forget, we were grafted in, and, if we do not bear fruit, as a dead branch, we will be pruned out, just as were, the natural branches!!!

We are not saved by works, instead, works PROVE HIM in us: they identify HIS own...
IF I claim ONENESS with *GOD*, through CHRIST JESUS, I am DEAD TO THE WORLD, THUS, LIVING as HIM, which is, hopefully, witnessed IN, and, THROUGH, my every thought, action, and, reaction; MEANING, I am, THROUGH CONSCIOUS application OF THE WORD, HIS COMMANDS, HIS WILL, REFLECTING righteousness, not, merely, FAITH! I become, the TRULY FRUITFUL branch, of THE VINE, the TRUE member of THE BODY/THE CHURCH, CHRIST JESUS, and, TESTIFY, then, GLORIFY, BOLDLY, BY my thoughts, actions, and, reactions, HIS name, because, HE IS WORTHY, and, IN HIS LOVE, has SHOWN me, how I OUGHT to exist, to which, I eagerly, adapt, and, comply!!!

MATTHEW 5:48...

So be perfect,
just as your heavenly Father is perfect

1 PETER 1:14-16...
14/ Like obedient children, do not act in compliance with the desires of your former ignorance
15/ but, as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in every aspect of your conduct,
16/ for it is written, "Be holy because I (am) holy."


ROMANS 12:2...
Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.
Conduct, in conformity to *GOD'S* WILL, marks the righteous; it is NOT because of guilt, or, ancient Laws, but, because of LOVE; LOVE for *GOD*, self, then, others! CHRIST JESUS gave us Commandments to live by, of which, the first is to LOVE *GOD*, with all of your mind, heart, and, soul; the second is, to LOVE one another!

LOVE COMPELS us to LIVE IN HIM, through conduct which conforms to *GOD*; in other words, morality, ethics, doing good, and, being good, and, ever striving to improve the spirit! It is about REFLECTING THE TRUTH, for ALL to bear witness to, FOR, and, TO HIS GLORY, RADIANTLY SHINING OF HIS POWER, GRACE, and, MERCIES!!!

It IS ALL ABOUT LOVE, baby, all about LOVE!!!

MATTHEW 4: 17...
From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

JOHN 14:15...
"If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

MAY PEACE BE WITH YOU, ALWAYS!!!

NOTE: I do not intend to preach, rather to reach; to stir up, awaken, to inspire, and, bring forth, in discussion, that which is, perhaps, dormantly existing in the heart of hearts, thus, little, or, no, sugar coatings, just THE WORD of *GOD*, the TRUTH, along with some of my thoughts. And truth is, I am reminding myself always, as I practice these reminders, in the best of my abilities, and capacities, while RELYING on THE LORD to lead me on that narrow PATH---> MATTHEW 7: 14: "For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it... TO *GOD* BE ALL GLORY...

EVERYBODY PRAISE THE LORD: LINCOLN BREWSTER

*GOD*, ALONE, HAS GIVEN ME THIS DAY...

*GOD* gave me this day, in hopes that I will honour HIM, and, GLORIFY HIS name, by thought, and, action, AS a living example of HIS WILL! HE gave the hours before me, to manifest the BEST I can, even IF the world tries to alter that effort! HE COULD MAKE me do HIS WILL, instead, HE gives me FREE will that anything I do for HIM comes from some understanding of HIS WAYS! It is the effort which defines the action; as effort is based on what lies in one's heart of hearts, even if they are sub-consciously acting upon what lies there!!!

HE has in place, many ways to determine the righteous from those who live for the world! While HE HAS placed HIMSELF in our hearts, and, minds, HE has also, obscured HIMSELF in many, plus, many do NOT align to what HE has placed within them, as the world fascinates them, deludes them, and, twists their TRUE natures into confused states of existence! Thus, as some make the effort to learn of HIM, understand HIM, then, to align to HIS WAYS, these become TRUE examples of HIS POWER, as they, then, GLORIFY HIM through their actions by ARISING from the world, and, altering their lives to reflect ALL which HE is! Such people have been convinced that HIS WAY IS THE WAY, and, rarely, do they look back, as they continue their growth in HIS WILL, therefore, becoming SHINING, living examples of HIM!!!

FAITH is not enough, but, in the SINCERELY FAITHFUL, it can be a point of envisioning what comprises the whole! FAITH MUST BE, there is no doubt, but, it is NOT enough to merely be FAITHFUL! One must LIVE in HIS WAYS, and, GROW in those WAYS, that they, BY SPIRITUAL ACTION,  further the state of WHOLESOME GOODNESS, both visibly, and, not!!!

Our days are numbered, we only have this time, IF we seek *GOD*,  to rectify the damages we have incurred, thus, when a new day has been given us, we must remember that it IS a gift from the MOST HIGH, and, act accordingly! We must increase in QUALITIES which express HIS LOVE, HIS WILL, HIS WAYS, that HE IS honoured, and, GLORIFIED, always, for HE, ALONE, is worthy of the mightiest, loudest, and, uplifting proclamation!!!

Yes, *GOD* gave me this day to do what I might with it, but, because I LOVE HIM with all my being, I CHOOSE to further myself in HIS name, that, always, from my internal being, to my actions, and, reactions, HE is GLORIFIED, and, evident to the world through me! Thank YOU FATHER, for granting me another day! I pray for strength, courage, vision, and, the components of LOVE, WISDOM, and, understanding of YOUR WAYS, that I walk in YOUR WILL, doing YOUR work, and, spreading the GOODNESS which is PURELY OF YOU! I am grateful to have the opportunity to UPLIFT YOUR name for all the world to see, and, hear, and, that YOU have spared me long enough to be able to do so! I take nothing for granted, for ONLY YOU KNOW the number of my hours, and, I have learned, through YOU, that I must make these hours worthy OF YOU, and, FOR YOUR name! PRAISE YOU, my LORD, my *GOD*, my SAVIOUR, and, my HOLY SPIRIT for empowering me in these hours, that I am rightfully aligned to what IS TRUTH!!! AMEN!!!

MALACHI 2:7-8...
7/ "For the lips of a priest ought to preserve knowledge, and from his mouth men should seek instruction—because he is the messenger of the LORD Almighty.
8/ But you have turned from the way and by your teaching have caused many to stumble; you have violated the covenant with Levi," says the LORD Almighty...
When you GIVE HOPE, you find HOPE, and, any time you find HOPE, be sure to GIVE it to someone else!!!

By FAITH we sleep, by FAITH we live, by FAITH we keep...lw'12

HOSEA 6:6...
For it is love that I desire, not sacrifice, and knowledge of God rather than holocausts.

(MATTHEW 9:13 & MATTHEW 12)

The world over, needs prayers, day in, day out! LET US PRAY WITHOUT CEASING! Let LOVE be the voice we lift UP to *GOD*! May HE BLESS us, and, may we allow HIM to show us THE WAY!!! PRAISE HIS MIGHTY name, and, GLORIFY HIM in thought, action, and, reaction!!!
The messengers of PEACE, in the heart of LOVE, have been handpicked by the Creator *GOD*, from the ranks of life, for HE knows the effectiveness of using those who have survived the worst, and now understand the best. In this way, the warriors of PEACE & LOVE are empowered, with strength, fortitude, longwithstanding, therefore, enabled to create ripples in the minds, & lives of mankind...

No GREATER LOVE exists:

No GREATER LOVE exists:
as CHRIST JESUS died for me, I, also die in HIM, and, ONLY IN HIM, do I find LIFE...

LOVE ONE ANOTHER---DAN LUEDERS
