HEAVENLY INCLINED...: SET YOURSELF & OTHERS FREE FROM THE CHAOS OF THE WORLD!!!

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...

SET YOURSELF & OTHERS FREE FROM THE CHAOS OF THE WORLD!!!

As is obvious from the news of the day, the world is ever growing more evil; the people that know TRUTH MUST PRAY constantly, as well as offer what they might to others---

STAND IN THE LORD *GOD* at ALL times, and BE HIS REFLECTION as well as a beacon of HOPE; BE a channel of PEACE, of LOVE, and of what is good, right, and just! More of the world does not know *GOD* than do, which means we HAVE WORK TO BE DONE, DESPITE that many have turned from HIM, or have been convinced to ignore HIM! It is imperative to souls, and to time that we SHINE in the darkness OF HIM, existing IN HIS WILL in the best of our capacities, FOR HIS GLORY, and the greater good of ALL!!!

My heart is wrenched from the onslaught of wickedness, and evil! Daily it persists, as it consumes yet more in that time span! Lack of KNOWLEDGE OF THE LORD *GOD* IS the foremost reason WHY this is happening, albeit EVERYONE HAS that knowledge within! Thus, THE LORD HAS CHOSEN certain peoples to REVEAL HIM, HIS WILL, HIS WAYS, HIS WORD to others, THAT as long as there is this hour, this day, there WILL BE OPPORTUNITY to TURN TO HIM, and to one by one, CHANGE the course that the majority are on, which is one of devastation, ruin, and total destruction of being(s)!!!

WHY humans CHOOSE to continue to remain in the volatile chaos we HAVE created is beyond me! It makes NO sense whatsoever, when we COULD dwell in a constant state of well-being; thriving, flourishing, and prospering! WE ARE WHY this has happened; we HAVE LET ourselves be taken over by what is wrong, bad, and unjust, PARTLY because we are complacent, and then, TOO danged tolerant OF what is wicked, and evil! We HAVE SETTLED in the mire of degeneracy!!!

There IS NOW CONSTANT danger right outside our doors, and for a great many, this is new, but it seems, we STILL fall right into the trap, and accept it! An enormous amount of bloodshed has occurred in the past 2 years, including mere Children, and other innocents! Violence HAS surged to unfathomable heights, with many appearing to simply, snap! Sinful matters have contributed to this, such as drugs, and other such. Listen, synthetic marijuana IS tainted, and even natural pot affects everyone differently; some should NEVER light up; not to mention the widespread use of mushrooms, acid, ecstasy, opioids, heroin, and more, plus, over indulgence of alcohol! MANY people CANNOT get high, or drink, especially ALL of the time, it begins to destroy them from the inside out! Drug use, and alcohol excess is prominent in MOST countries on Earth, which HAS contributed to MUCH of where we are today! A guy just killed a Father who was protecting his 2 year old Son from a mushroom crazed shooter in Florida, for NO reason other than, as the shooter stated, "I felt empowered by the mushrooms"! We have road rage, rapes, and all sorts of acting out CAUSED BY such, as it works on the mind, and the entire being! THIS IS WHY *GOD* forbids use of such, and with alcohol, says in moderation ONLY, BECAUSE it FIRST off, REMOVES HIM from the person, and secondly, ALTERS the state of the being; the same IS TRUE with uncontrolled lusts, greed, passion, and each of the deadly 7! INSTEAD OF BEING FREE IN HIM, one becomes CONTROLLED by these...

People CHOOSE to be controlled by things, and matters of this world, which ultimately lead to an increase of bad things (consequences), INSTEAD OF choosing TO BE FREE IN WHAT IS OF *GOD*, AND this IS as ludicrous as it gets, since one is draining for the being, and the other is FULFILLING!!!

WE DON'T make ANY sense IN our choices! It REALLY baffles me, as it IS pretty clear, and OPTIMAL to choose to exist in comfort, health, and overall wellness!!!

*GOD* IS THE ONLY ANSWER, and ANTIDOTE TO the messes we make! There is NO other way! WITHOUT HIM we ARE going to suffer, and be brought low, and even lower the more we deny, or defy HIM! The worse we get, the less we will find ANY joy!!!

*GOD* HELP US! We ARE SO lost in this darkening, dismal realm of destruction, and we downplay it bigly!!!

PRAY, BE GOOD, and DO GOOD, EVEN when the majority is rendering iniquity! FOR THIS, HIS PRAISE, and GLORY, WERE we CREATED! BE A BLESSING ALWAYS, and HONOUR THE LORD *GOD* ALMIGHTY IN ALL your ways, for the rest of your days! SNATCH souls from the fire AS you inspire others to SEE HIM, and TO FOLLOW HIM!!!
