Certainly there is something that can be done to break the hold of tyranny upon this world. For sure there are positive steps that may be employed to correctly and effectively navigate the treacherous waters of those who would enslave free humanity. With no doubt it makes common sense that all is not lost, the battle unfinished and no victor declared if even one of us still possesses the avenue to shout the ideals of free speech to those that might be in listening distance. What then inspires the desire to declare loss, apathy, despair and shame the only roads left travelling?
We are sovereign, not only in our reflection to this nation and its inception but to the Creator who would have us empowered by the authority and expression of the “Free Will” he gave us. If God had meant us to be enslaved then He would have placed us in a nation that does such to its people from birth. That apparently is the structure of the argument and capacity that this foul beast of global empire has sought institution within this great nation. How then might a gift that was given by God be so carelessly tossed by wayside, forgotten, relinquished and merely mourned by those given those authorities as reflection of their Creator’s character and Love?
This battle has begun not ended. we are the voices remaining, declaring that Freedom shall not be governed by the few in proclamation of their superiority to all men. We shall fight wherever men are the property of other avaricious humans to see that they are set free to reflect their God given aspirations of hope and purpose. This is not a duty easy stricken from the record, the columns of debits and credits regarded in the accounting of nations. This is an idea for which all effort may be employed and that greatest talent for preservation must be our Hope. For without that hope there is no bright tomorrow arising in the vision of the future. We must collectively look upon that vision at this very moment and see the future to which we have all dedicated our thinking, resolves and direction. Where are we headed? For not knowing the course or possibly understanding the desired destination hopeful vision may never be employed and therefore fail to fire prior to launch.
What is it that we want for this world? A system of folks pursuing their own interests that guarantees that the ideals and vision of those with the money will invariably be overtaken? What then of the bulk of humanity who are neither rich nor slave to this thinking? How is it that our vision differs? Do we wish to serve the Creator who gave us the characteristics of sovereignty, concern, accountability and shame for our own personal sin? Or do we want a world unbridled by the ideals that there are certain things that are just plain WRONG? We stand at that battle ground today upon a field where the battle has only now begun. Will we armor up in the Characteristics of Christ and take the field in Hope and shared vision of a future He has told us is soon coming? Or will we capitulate to an enemy that has already been defeated and simply awaits the arrival of the One and Only King of All, Jesus Christ the Lord?
Caleb, You are so eloquent and inspiring with your words. You have blessed so many with your wonderful gift of teaching Gods Word. It speaks directly into my heart.
I am ready for battle, but with the understanding that it always requires thoughtful continual prayer to seek His way and not my own. I admit that I’m a perfectionist, but The Lord is lifting that self imposed burden from me. I find myself relying more and more for His guidance. Saying that I’m ready is difficult to say out loud without explanation. I don’t want to ever sound as if I’m in a continuous state of readiness… but my spirit is willing. Is it wrong to think that I am ready and willing to do or go where He is asking? Knowing that I’m so flawed and not completely ready at every moment, is just me being honest. However, I WILL give it my all…with my many imperfections. I don’t know any other way to be, after everything he has given and sacrificed for me. Trying to express my thoughts and words with what is in my heart has been a difficult thing for me, especially as of late…can ya tell?!?! 😍
When I cannot seem to be physically able to put my words together or focus my eyes on written words, I hold my Bible to my heart and am sill and quite. I have found comfort in those moments and sometimes clarity. It must seem like an oddity that I occasionally do this, but I so long to be in His presence and hear His voice! Sometimes, at that moment, it is all I can do.
My mind explodes in the realization that He has placed me exactly where I am at this precise time and place. That knowledge gives me strength. I feel the increasing intensity of the approaching battle and from surprising places as well.
I thank you for listening and letting me rant on and on. I seriously welcome, correction, and guidance… for that is a true gift! 😍😍 Praise His Holy Name!!!🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼 God Bless you! Amen! 🙏🏼
All that I have was given by God, including you as a gift to remind me of the precious things in this life and the next. Our inadequacies are irrelevant and may in fact be our own judgment of the perfect work God did in each of us. How can I be inadequate when God made me. Impossible? Additionally, being inadequate is perhaps irrelevant for even in my most inadequate moment I may be the very vessel that God uses to do the miraculous. So, it may be deception having me focus on my abilities or lack thereof instead of keeping my eyes upon the Holy, Omnipotent God living in each of us. You are ready if God is your choice, that is what makes us ready. BE at peace in Him, He is ready in His timing, the rest is for us to enjoy, wrestle, overcome, rejoice and live abundantly. In Jesus’ Name Be Blessed.
Caleb, God is my choice. The One True Thing in my life is The Lord. He has always been faithful to me and helped me grow and rejoice through little trials along the way. I am nothing without Him! I’m sorry if I am not phrasing my words in a manner that is expressing the thoughts I am trying to convey while I’m on new medication. I’ve been directly confronted about my FAITH…My Faith that gives me so much Joy! All because of a health issue! I have been told several times in a couple of days, that I am struggling with my health because of a lack Faith. But I say bring it on, because I feel closer to The Lord than I ever have, and am really happy that God loves me so much that he knows I’ve got this.
I’m sharing so much with you because I have been praying for leadership, teaching of His Word, and fellowship with other believers. And then there it was – suddenly right in front of me! The answer to my long and heartfelt prayers. I am going to continue to enjoy, rejoice and be happy with my situation. I agree that since I’m His creation I can choose to let these little things define me, or gladly choose to learn from trials along the way.
I pray🙏🏼 Almighty God of everything beautiful and wonderful, please continue to prepare me so I might Glorify You! I look at the life you have given me and am truly privileged dear Lord. I’m ready to be Your humble and loving servant. Mold me into the vessel you see in me oh Lord! Thank you for loving me THAT MUCH! 😍😅🙌🏼 Dear Heavenly Father, I will be forever in awe of your sacrifice, forgiveness and the glorious way you continue to work in my life! Amen 🙏🏼
That’s what I’ve always believed and wanted to say! And I welcome 🙏🏼 continued guidance from you my Brother in The Lord! Thank you for being patient, loving and kind to all who are lost and are seeking Him, and those who strive to be more obedient to The Lord! Praise Him! 🙌 Amen and God Bless!
😍🙏🏼😍
Praise God in His infinite Strength, Mercy and Glory. I am so thankful for this testimony and grateful that I get to love you in this lifetime and the next. Have an awesome year in Jesus’ Name.
Hi Caleb, Just checking if everything is okay. Your message sounded like you’re going to be gone for the remainder of the year. I hope all is well. God Bless! 😍
Don’t remember saying that. Has the Lord told you something he hasn’t told me yet? All is always great, living the abundant life he intended. challenged but growing.
No…😂 You’re last message back to me ended with: Have an awesome year in Jesus’ Name.
I assumed that you might have something planned! Now you know what happens when people (like me🤦🏻♀️) assume! Sorry. Well I’m laughing at myself now. I just got back home for a few weeks!!!😍👍🏼 Have a blessed evening! 🙋🏻♀️
