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

SOAR 'IN' THE SPIRIT!!!


GALATIANS 6:2-10...
2/ Bear one another's burdens, and so you will fulfill the law of Christ.
3/ For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he is deluding himself.
4/ Each one must examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast with regard to himself alone, and not with regard to someone else;
5/ for each will bear his own load.
6/ One who is being instructed in the word should share all good things with his instructor.
7/ Make no mistake: God is not mocked, for a person will reap only what he sows,
8/ because the one who sows for his flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows for the spirit will reap eternal life from the spirit.
9/ Let us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest, if we do not give up.
10/ So then, while we have the opportunity, let us do good to all, but especially to those who belong to the family of the faith.

To bear one another's burdens is to "serve one another through love" (GALATIANS 5:13)
It is IMPORTANT to train the mind to REMEMBER that time is fleeting, thus, WHILE we HAVE the opportunity, let us BE GOOD, and, DO GOOD, each of which, ARE the evidence of LOVE ALIVE, SHINING FOR the world to bear witness to!!!

The one who sows for his own flesh, WILL reap CORRUPTION FROM the flesh; this means that one is seeking SELF gratification, and, NOT the WILL of *GOD*, NOR, LIVING in LOVE for others! We CANNOT serve others, when, we are serving the self! To serve the self, is CHOOSING recompense IN THE NOW, and, not for the riches of *GOD*! It is serving one's desires, passions, and, egocentric mind, OVER *GOD*! It is ignoring the needs OF the world, and, the WISHES of *GOD*! It is wrongful living, OFTEN, because of LACK of KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORD, and, partial instruction, therein!!!

HUMILITY is PLEASING to *GOD*, as HE, ALONE, IS EVERYTHING, ALL POWERFUL, ALL KNOWING, and, whom brings forth ALL in this day; it is the acceptance, that, WITHOUT HIM, we are as if nothing, disabled, stagnated, stymied, and, unable to grow beyond our limitations! WITH HIM, we CAN SOAR as the eagle, ARISING OVER the world, FREE from it's constant, constricting bondage, therefore, anyone who thinks he is something, when he is nothing, IS deluding himself, GREATLY! WITH *GOD* AS our MENTALITY, and, AS OUR CHOSEN inspiration, instructor, and, guide, we ARE something, but, we give UNTO HIM, ALL GLORY, for glory only exists THROUGH HIM, and, HIS WILL, being fulfilled!!!

Two planes of existence; one, the natural plane, is deadly; it is OF the flesh, and, is CORRUPTED, and, CORRUPTIBLE; the other, the spiritual plane, is LIFE, ETERNAL; is UNCORRUPTED, and, INCORRUPTIBLE, and, is FREEDOM FROM THE NATURAL PLANE, for IN *GOD*, the natural plane is, and, will be, non-existent, and, will perish from HIS sight, forever! CHOICE, and, EFFORT, ARE key to life in CHRIST/*GOD*! We only have to KNOW the choice, and, what it entails, that, we BEGIN to 'get' it, and, measure our steps in righteousness! Righteousness is the ACTION of self-denial, becoming as Children, adapting to conducting ourselves in MORALITY, WHILE, CONFORMING TO *GOD'S* WILL!!!

To Walk with *GOD*, IS a most SERIOUS, REVERENT matter, as, it REQUIRES, WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING, ADHERENCE, CONFORMING, ALIGNING, and, more, YET, as we COME INTO HIS world, we begin to become FREED from so much! It IS WORK, yet, it is the GREATEST PLEASURE we could hope to find, and, brings MORE than ALL of what the world has to offer, combined! You don't have to LOSE yourself in entering *GOD'S* world, NO!, HE CREATED YOU, the way you ARE, for reason, and, purpose; INSTEAD, you FIND the REAL YOU, FREE from delusion, deception, dissension, and, discomfort! You become WHO YOU REALLY ARE, and, the binds of the world, fall away, one by one, as your spirit BECOMES LOVE, and, is enabled, enriched, endowed, empowered, and, encouraged BY LOVE/*GOD*!!!

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
