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

LET US CELEBRATE CONTINUOUSLY, HIS GIFT!!!

Easter Monday! Or, RENEWAL MONDAY, as is cited by age old customs, mostly upheld by the ROMAN CATHOLIC Churches, and, EASTERN ORTHODOX Churches, which is the second day of BRIGHT week! BRIGHT week, lasts for a full 7 days, counting the RESURRECTION, usually ending the following Sunday (called NEW SUNDAY, or, THOMAS SUNDAY), in which mostly EASTERN ORTHODOX Churches celebrate the RESURRECTION, by repeating psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, reading of the DIVINE SCRIPTURES, celebrating, and, rejoicing CHRIST JESUS. It is said that in this way, one is exalted WITH CHRIST, and, RAISED UP with HIM!!!

For many of us Christians, it is back to the usual! But, should it be? Shouldn't we be celebrating CHRIST in each day of our lives? Shouldn't we, in our RENEWAL, be rejoicing, exalting, extolling, and, uplifting our PRECIOUS LORD in thought, action, and, deed, continuously? Isn't it probable that THIS EASTER be that date in time when we FINALLY begin to BE ONE with HIM, in ALL respects? HOLY days leave lasting impressions upon me, and, the closer my walk with *GOD*, the more I feel that EACH DAY should be as HOLY as is feasible, though I walk in this carnal world! There are great advantages to IMPROVING our HOLINESS, and, to BONDING with HIS SACREDNESS, so, WHY do we end abruptly, what is just beginning???

Renewal, rebirth, rejuvenation! Each is inclusive to what HE left for us, so, as this HOLY season winds down, we should take time to reflect, then, determine our role in this HOLY COVENANT, not only for the sake of HIM, but, for the sake of ourselves, and, those who might be affected by our own state of compliance! It is a time when we should shift MORE from the natural plane, to the spiritual plane, that we are TRULY reflections of HIS LIGHT, for all the world to see, and, wonder over! We should be reading THE BOOK, cover to cover, daily, nightly, DEVOURING the WORD, for that WORD holds sustenance such as nothing else! HIS HOLY SCRIPTURES are like mystically empowered fibers which begin to manifest HIS BLESSINGS in a way unprecedented by anything else, and, AID us in growing into the sound characteristics which represent, without doubt, the CHOSEN Children of *GOD*!!!

We should be ECSTATIC for our role in HIS plan! We should be EXCITED to be as DEPENDABLE, and, FAST examples of HIS WILL, HIS WAYS! WE ARE the LIVING CHRIST/*GOD*, in that, we, IF we are sincerely aligned, ARE the reflection of HIS TRUTH, and, HIS LOVE, as well as HIS WHOLESOMENESS! Thus, we SHOULD, by the GIFT of HIS NATURE, through the HOLY SPIRIT, BE ATTENDING to PERFECTING ourselves to be VIABLE examples of HIM!!!

KNOWING full, and, WELL, the WORD, allows for ALL to be interconnected, and, perfectly interactive in fulfilling HIS WILL! When there is partial knowledge, ignorance, and, altered instructions, then, there is room for arguments, dissension, tension, and, other negatives, WHICH place us AT RISK of tripping on the deceivers snares! So, you see, it IS IMPERATIVE TO LEARN THE WORD, constantly, and, consistently, that there is room for dialogue, discussion, and, advancement, VOID of any grievous counteraction on the part of the members of the BODY of the CHURCH, CHRIST!!!

If you TRULY LEARN THE SPIRIT, THE SPIRIT WILL UPLIFT you so HIGH, you will be soaring as the eagle, though you yet, exist in this life!!!

Don't worship with your mouth only, nor, once a week, worship constantly, and, in that worship, develop a TRUE spiritual connection with your *GOD*, LORD, and, SAVIOUR! BE ALL YOU CAN BE in HIS HOLY name, to GLORIFY HIM, AND, to further the state of the BODY, THE CHURCH, CHRIST JESUS!!! 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!!!

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
