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

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE...


The LAW of the land, IS LOVE! It is the 2ND Commandment given unto us, and, for great reason!!! Not ONLY that, but, IF we HONOURED *GOD*; "And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might", the 2ND would be intrinsic!!!

Some say that the kind of LOVE of which *GOD* speaks, is NOT possible in society! Are you kidding me? Are you so far gone, that you would challenge *GOD*, who HAS CREATED ALL, and, EVERYTHING? Have you NOT tried to learn the matter of LOVE, that your understanding would allow for you to SEE the sense in HIS Commands???

EACH of HIS WORDS HAVE REASON, and, PURPOSE TO THE WHOLE OF EXISTENCE, and, LOVE is PRIMARY TO THE GOOD OF ALL IN EXISTENCE, for MANY reasons, one of which is, that ALL in existence IS PROVIDED for, OPTIMALLY, that each IS EMPOWERED TO FULFILL IT'S PURPOSE TO HIS WILL! You think that hungry, homeless people, or, abused people, or, oppressed people can function properly? Granted, some survive, some arise, but, for the most part, the SENSELESS suffering they endure, LEADS them into actions, and, reactions, not to mention thoughts, which are REMOVED from *GOD*, thus, BECAUSE LOVE was NOT evident in their lives, they fall into the traps of the evil trapper, and, suffer even more; none of them deserving of what they are suffering...

Few WANT to hear, the TRUTH of what happens, when we, ignore *GOD*! Everyone is bound by the good they want to hear, and, the freedom to pick, and, choose! This is something which needs addressing, and, needs to be considered! LOVE IS the evidence of *GODLINESS*, as HE IS LOVE! TRUTH is the evidence of *GOD*, as, HE IS TRUTH! There is NO swaying, tampering, or, selectivity, when it comes to HIS WORD, HIS WILL, and, HIS WAYS, NONE, whatsoever!!!

In the gist of LOVE, there is ALL PROVISION, for ALL, and, EVERYTHING, POWERED by WHOLESOME GOODNESS, and, POSITIVITY! This means that CommUNITY, is imperative! This means that NO person should be hungry, homeless, naked, or, left to fend for themselves! The WORLD IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WORLD, IN the gist of LOVE, and, THE TRUTH OF LOVE!!!

GIVING is far more rewarding, now, and, ever after, than receiving, AND, it PROVES LOVE!!!

CARING, and, SHARING, are components of GIVING (LOVE), and, SHOULD be taken to the heart of hearts, that they become as intrinsic, as is our breath! It IS ALL ABOUT PAYING IT FORWARD, that NO ONE is LEFT BEHIND, AND, that NO ONE is placed in conditions/circumstances/situations, which ROB them of THEIR INHERITANCE in *GOD*! You SEE, when we ignore the needy, we are aiding the probability of them being COMPROMISED, for, when one is LOST IN SUFFERING, they do NOT think right, act right, and so forth, therefore, the evil of life, can EASILY overcome them!!!

PSALMS 82:3-4...
Give fair judgment to the poor man, the afflicted, the fatherless, the destitute.
Rescue the poor and helpless from the grasp of evil men...

PROVERBS 21:13...
He who shuts his ears to the cries of the poor will be ignored in his own time of need...

1 JOHN 3:17-19...
But if someone who is supposed to be a Christian has money enough to live well, and sees a brother in need, and won't help him--how can God's love be within him?
Little children, let us stop just saying we love people; let us really love them, and show it by our actions.
Then we will know for sure, by our actions, that we are on God's side, and our consciences will be clear, even when we stand before the Lord...

There are COUNTLESS Scriptures concerning LOVE, and, CARING for one another, but, the above, speak volumes!!!

And, it is NOT just about the poor, or, needy, it is about REALLY LOVING one another, IN the way that *GOD*/CHRIST, LOVES us; it is about taking up the YOKE of RIGHTEOUSNESS, IN HIS NAMESAKE, that GOOD PREVAILS, and, eradicates ALL opposition!!!

Just something to think about! I LOVE you ALL, may *GOD* BLESS, and, BE with us ALL, may PEACE be as our footsteps, leaving the evidence of LOVE upon the face of the Earth, evermore!!! PRAISE *GOD* for HIS GENIUS plan to rescue, and, save us, 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
