HEAVENLY INCLINED...: THE LIGHT IS THE LOVE OF *GOD*...

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.

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...

THE LIGHT IS THE LOVE OF GOD...

The LOVE of *GOD* is the LIGHT which spans over CREATION, ever fanning outwardly, touching EVERYTHING in CREATION! In this LIGHT is empowerment, enablement, endowment, enrichment, encouragement, and ALL, which is, RIGHT, and, HEALTHY!!!

In contrast, what is of the world, deception, is like a huge, towering, darkness inducing, vacuum, with endless hoses, slithering around the Earth, which, sucks THE LIGHT, from the human race, ALTHOUGH, it CANNOT eradicate THE LIGHT! When this obstruction comes near, it blocks THE LIGHT, then, attaches itself to all in it's path, changing what IS, into what is NOT!!!

Unfortunately, this huge, dark vacuum, has been present in the lives of many since birth, and while, they KNOW of THE LIGHT, and, have even caught a glimpse of it, now, and, again, they are so encased in the hindrance of the vacuum, and, are, in fact, IN the hose, that, they don't realize that THE LIGHT IS the TRUTH of existence!!!

As LOVE reaches into the depths of some, these are LED to grabbing those hindered by the vacuum of deception, while, RADIATING THE LIGHT of LOVE, and, showing the hindered, THE WAY TO THE LIGHT, which, is NOT easy, because, so many are SURE that the dark vacuum, and, it's constant presence in their lives IS the truth, as, that is all they have known to this date! Therefore, those who have been TAUGHT BY THE LIGHT, have to INCREASE their own intensity OF THE LIGHT, that, it OVERCOMES the blindness, caused by the dark obstruction, and, these LED, are NEVER to relent, as, IF they should, the vacuum WILL inhale ALL in it's path, and, take them to where they do not understand, nor, wish to be!!!

ONLY THE LIGHT OF LOVE can save the human race, because it is *GOD*, and so, HE has chosen many to search, and, rescue the hindered, THROUGH their reflection OF THE LIGHT OF HIS LOVE, as come one day, that dark, hampering vacuum, and, all encompassed within, ARE going to be eradicated, BY THE LIGHT, never to disturb THE GLORY OF THE LIGHT OF LOVE again! Many will have CHOSEN to remain obscured, in the confines of the vacuum, because they knew NOT THE LIGHT, but, per chance, others WILL be FREED from the influential might of this destructive vehicle of damnation...

LET THE LIGHT SHINE, and, OVERTAKE YOU, it IS the TRUTH of REALITY, and, the safe passage to ETERNITY! PRAISE THE LORD, our *GOD*, for ALL HE has provided for us, IN HIS LOVE!!! AMEN!!!
