No window necessary

What’s more precious than God’s shared truth through each individual heart?  Tell me Brother the word that you have been reluctant to share, because as God’s word says; “Better is open rebuke than hidden love”.  I trust the Lord and naturally since He lives in you, I feel that a message from you spoken in truth and love is invariably directed by the Lord.  It is extremely difficult to see oneself without a mirror, please be that mirror to reflect those facets which may be unpleasing in His sight.  I know that things may not be corrected except by the Holy Spirit’s intervention but I actively accept this role in pursuit of love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance.  To that end the Word indicates the necessity of using the fruit of the Spirit to implement such personal commitment; 

“Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.  See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.  See that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son.”  Hebrews 12:14-16  We are meant to be holy, patient and sexually pure as any groom would expect of his bride.  How manifold the importance considering we are to be wed to Christ.

Keep on loving each other as brothers.  Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.  Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow prisoners, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.  Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.  Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”  So we say with confidence, ” The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?” Hebrews 13:1-6

These statements are not conditional they are informative as teacher to student.  Do these things and things will go right, disobey this direction and things will go badly.  The Lord expects so much of us, but after all we owe Him everything.  Be aware that the enemy will consistently attempt to stop you, dissuade you, harass you, cajole you or simply corrupt you into disobeying the Lord’s direction.

To sally on to the field of Christian battle without expecting enemy assault is worse than naive it is negligent.  Be neither!  Be prepared, be armored, be strong in the Lord and the Power of His Might, be prayerful, be courageous, be cunning, committed and stand your ground, shields locked with your Christian Brothers and His Word sharp upon your readied tongue.  Be victorious my friends, in Jesus.  Amen.
