HEAVENLY INCLINED...: HATE IS POISON; BEWARE!!!

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...

HATE IS POISON; BEWARE!!!

When you are filled with hatred, you can't see right, you can't hear right, and you can't act, or react right! Hate blinds one; hate deafens one; hate shuts down reason, logic, and dialogue, as well as LOVE, compassion, and emotions which work for the good of any circumstance, and for anyone---

Hatred is like a tidal wave, which we ARE experiencing in this country, and which is spreading beyond! Hatred is a bitter, bitter, vile poison which overtakes the being, completely, and can be very difficult to remove from the being! It truly affects all the senses, and the body, because though it does exist, it is NOT innate to our design; it is an acquired, learned, or adopted state of existence, which can be brought forth by influence, or unchecked behaviours, lack of character, and a dismal view of LOVE! Hatred IS awful, and has terrible consequences, both for the hater, and those being hated...

You think it is for no reason that we are bid to exist in LOVE? Or that there isn't any proof that LOVE works for our good? THINK about the differences between LOVE, and hate, and consider the effects, and how they affect everyone, and everything! LOVE IS POSITIVE, right, just, and good; hate IS negative, wrong, unjust, and bad for everyone, and everything! The negatives of this world work COMPLETELY against us, and hinder us entirely! Both exist, but we HAVE the CHOICE to embrace one or the other, and hands down, LOVE RULES, and IS FOREVER, and WINS even though all the humans in the world deny it, or defy it!!!

Animosity IS swelling in this land; yah, it is near the breaking point, and is making our existence insecure, and unsure! IS THIS WHAT WE WANT, AMERICA???

WHERE IS THE LEADERSHIP of WISDOM, and RIGHTEOUSNESS? It sure isn't very visible, or present at this time! The threats to ALL ARE getting worse, and ARE going to bring us to a point of reckoning, of that I have NO doubt! It IS UGLY in this country, and fierce enough to be likened to barbaric societies of long ago!!!

SOMETHING HAPPENED to this nation in recent years, something nasty, and evil, which IS in part, because of the turning away from THE LORD *GOD* ALMIGHTY, and embracing the self! INTENSE IS the TENSION coming from the peoples; and the divide IS enough to destroy us! We DON'T need outsiders to harm us, not at all, we ARE doing ourselves in, as some of the world observes in shock, and the rest celebrates, HOPING for our demise, and downfall! WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? DOES ANYONE KNOW, or even care???

IT HAS TO STOP NOW, BEFORE we face destruction unfathomable! WHO THE HECK WANTS to live in all this madness? There is NOTHING GOOD to come from it, UNLESS we acknowledge, admit, and then, CHANGE our ways! Otherwise, hate, kill, destroy WILL render us defeated, BY OUR OWN SELVES! NOT TOO SMART, NOT TOO OPTIMAL!!!

Humanity NEEDS LEADERSHIP; first from *GOD*, then WISE, COMPASSIONATE, and GENEROUS members of our societies! LOOK what happens when we DON'T allow leadership!!!

ARE most of us READY to die? Especially at the hands of our neighbors, or even our own Family! ARE we READY to go to the next level, KNOWING that we did NOT consider THE LORD, and HIS WILL? Ain't none of us ready, and we sure as heck better THINK long and hard what we are feeding into, and creating, as it IS getting worse by the day, and IS stirring up WRATH such as we cannot imagine!!!

LET'S GROW THE HELL UP PEOPLE! It is absolutely STUPID to be in such turmoil, and hostility, AND, it WON'T make for money in the bank, good jobs, or dreams come true; INSTEAD, we are going to be worse than if we had been nuked, because the hatred IS that loose, and running wild in FAR too many!!!

LORD, HELP US! We ARE LOST and we ARE making things worse than necessary, and for sure, to the point of no return!!!
