Demonstrate your belief

According to the worldly system, when you execute, deliver, develop or produce results you are rewarded.  For the measure of worldly “success” is increased profits through process improvements or cost reductions via innovation.  This makes sense to us and we would never question why someone was being rewarded for producing results consistent with this formula.  Why then do we have such difficulty with God’s system of reward?  The Lord rewards faith and a blameless walk.  The measure of faith is a reliance upon the promises God made to us and a subsequent walk that reflects this understanding, reliance and demonstrable “belief”.  That is why the reward for those who believe without having to stick their fingers inside God’s wounds is substantially greater than those who remain in doubt awaiting “evidence”.  The test or measure of faith is living your life in reflection of that belief.  That is why God is not standing in front of us, though He lives inside, for the human heart, emotions and thoughts may lie, be tricked or misdirected through want and deception.  The Bible says, “without faith it is impossible to please God”.  That is just logical, because how can you please someone that you are not even sure exists?  Lord help us with our unbelief, relinquish our doubt and remove us from this worldly system of reward for works.

If you are waiting, watching and hoping for a sign then you are setting yourself up for deception.  There will be signs, and wonders but they will not spell some signal of arriving consciousness, but rather notification of impending judgment and general mayhem upon the Earth.  If the evidence provided by Almighty God of His Sovereignty and Grace have not challenged you to conviction and subsequent transformation then you have been listening for what you’ve wished to hear and not for the truth.  There is no grander story than that of the Life, Death, Resurrection and Ascension of Jesus Christ.  That is the pinnacle of human history and jewel of our future.  Those with ears to hear will understand, and those who understand will stand and walk in faith, belief and works born from Love of God.

I see what any man with a modicum of discernment would see upon the horizon.  Threats, hunger, pestilence, war and an elite class willing to dispense words of harmony while their coffers, bellies and unbridled passions expand beyond wisdom and tolerance.  Children with no direction, emotionally abandoned by parents who can neither cope with reality nor the truth that they are responsible for young humans.  Leadership that can no longer lead because they have hobbled themselves with this or that special interest or personal agenda.  We the people dissolving into me the person.  My needs must never outweigh the life of a child or the care of an elder but that does not condone some failed call for communism as most would proclaim answer.  We have entered an era where perversion, insanity and foolishness have been elected governor.  Man’s greatest challenge is realizing that we cannot resolve the problems set before us.  This problem calls for Christ Jesus.  He alone provides the answer to national, regional and global dilemma.  God’s plan for humanity is unveiling and I pray that you too have seen it and will embrace truth.

Praise God in His Righteousness, Truth and Justice.  In Jesus’ Name.
