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

WHO IS THIS JESUS???

Just as long ago, there are those in this day, asking, who is this JESUS that created such controversy, such dissension, such confusion amongst the people of this world, though HE came in PEACE, and IS in fact, THE PRINCE OF PEACE? Who is this being who defied even death, and rose again, showing HIMSELF? Who is this Man who was kind, gentle, meek, and lived a simple life, while travelling through the lands to teach of *GOD* ALMIGHTY? Who is this who promised LIFE to those who believe in HIM??? HE IS THE LORD of the HEAVENS, and the Earth, *GOD* OVER ALL, and EVERYTHING, with exclusive, and sole power ABOVE ALL else, THE SON OF *GOD*, The SON of Man, the firstborn of ALL CREATION, SOVEREIGN KING OF KINGS, the beginning without end! HE IS THE LIGHT, THE WAY, THE TRUTH that eradicates the hold of the world on it's inhabitants; inhabitants of which, belong to HIM alone!!!

Why did this JESUS called CHRIST come to Sacrifice HIS own life for the souls of this planet? Why did HE agree to endure the worst of humanity's behaviours, to be ridiculed, scorned, rejected, spit upon, scourged, then, nailed to a cross of shame, and humiliation??? It was LOVE that sent HIM, it was LOVE which motivated HIM, it was LOVE that led HIM to lay down HIS own life, for the LIFE of those who seek it; LOVE for THE FATHER, then LOVE for HIS people! It was LOVE that had determined, even before the foundations of the world were laid, to save the people of this globe from the destructive, deadly forces which, claim rule! It IS LOVE that makes HIS mission as real, and vital today, as when HE was AROSE, VICTOR OVER death, and sin!!!

What did this CHRIST JESUS hope to prove in HIS undertaking? What was HIS intention, as HE taught the masses, healed them, and performed endless miracles for them to bear witness to? What was the point of HIS time spent amongst us??? HE came to prove HIS WILL, HIS power OVER HIS enemy, the enemy who is bent on stealing THE LORD'S people from HIS fold; like a wolf of prey! HIS intention is to grab from the wolf's hold, as many as can be directed to THE LIGHT! The point of HIS time amongst us was to SHOW us THE WAY, and to encourage us towards TRUE LIFE, freed from the bondage of the wolf's savagery, with HIS PROMISE of returning to gather the FAITHFUL into HIS CHURCH of whom HE IS THE HIGH PRIEST!!!

Where did this JESUS, CHRIST disappear to? From where does HE manage to work HIS powers OVER the world? Where can one find HIM??? THE LORD CHRIST JESUS AROSE to sit at the right hand of *GOD* ALMIGHTY! From HIS THRONE in the HEAVENS, HIS powers manifest to the Earth below, that HIS own are guided, protected, and provided for, as they sojourn the lands, and time! One can find HIM in the heart of hearts, in the mind, past the egocentric being, and in the spirit!!!

When will the world see HIM again? When will HE come to take HIS own to HIS THRONE? When will HE appear before our sights??? The day, and the hour is unknown, even to HIM, for the time has been guarded since before CREATION, for the safety, and advantage of HIS own, for the sake of the willful to work towards HIM, in body, mind, heart, and spirit! When HE comes, the HEAVENS and the Earth, will melt away, along with ALL against HIM, ALL who have not chosen HIM, ALL who have doubted HIM, and ALL elemental rulers, authorities, and principalities of this troubled old world! When HE appears, there will be great distress to this planet, and all of it's inhabitants, as disbelief, pride, arrogance, defiance, and other worldly behaviours prove helpless, and useless against HIM, and HIS HOLINESS!!!

As surely as there is an Earth, and the HEAVENS ABOVE, CHRIST JESUS DID, and DOES exist! HE DID come to pay the ULTIMATE SACRIFICE FOR HIS own, through HIS own death! HE SHALL return, and when HE does, for many it will mean eternal bliss, but for many more, eternal misery! As surely as we have breath at this moment, HE IS THE LORD *GOD* ALMIGHTY, and HIS GLORY IS EVERLASTING; OVERCOMING, defeating, then eradicating ALL which is against HIM, HIS WILL, and WAYS, born OF LOVE, finally, to be completed IN LOVE, because anti-LOVE came to wander the world, and captured HIS people!!!

WHO is this JESUS, called CHRIST? HE IS *GOD*, LORD, THE LIVING WORD, THE AMEN!, MESSIAH, ALPHA and OMEGA, SAVIOUR, REDEEMER, LIGHT OF THE WORLD, LAMB OF *GOD*, RULER OF CREATION, MEDIATOR, ADVOCATE, BREAD OF LIFE, and HE IS! HE IS ALL WHICH IS RIGHT, JUST, and GOOD! HE IS LOVE! HE IS ALL THAT, and MORE! HE IS the LOVE of my LIFE!!!

THANK HIM, and sing PRAISES for HIS LOVE, and HIS GIFT of LIFE! Sing HALLELUJAH, ALLELUIA! WORSHIP HIM, TURN TO HIM, HONOUR HIM with HONEST allegiance, and obedience, for HE IS, and EVER SHALL BE! YES, PRAISE THE LORD *GOD* ALMIGHTY, CHRIST JESUS, SAVIOUR, KING OF KINGS, and THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHO SAVES, and DELIVERS no matter the day, hour, or circumstance!!!

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
