About awrkhakhaya16

A watchman standing my post with eyes, heart and mind open. When you combine Paul's warnings to Timothy in 2T3-4 and Mordecai's words to Esther 4-14 the truth becomes inescapable. Standing around hoping for change is folly. Cry out or come out but the path cannot be followed by standing still. Do what the Lord told "you" to do because time is short and there are many roads. Choose the narrow one that leads to life!

You sure you meant me, Lord?

http://www.cnn.com/2014/07/19/world/meast/christians-flee-mosul-iraq/index.html?hpt=hp_t4 Here is your “peaceful” religion, conducting slaughter, terror, tax and unholy crusades against law abiding residents of Mosul, or as Jonah knew is Nineveh.

Who will go and proclaim God’s command of repentance or imminent judgment?  Now we can see why Jonah got on a boat toward Spain.  Are there any Christians with the Holy Boldness attributed to a filling of the Holy Spirit of God, willing to put aside worldly comforts and aspirations to bring the Good News of Christ and God’s impending judgment for their wickedness in Nineveh?  Do we fear the evils that men do, so greatly, that we have placed far from our minds the miracles in the Hand of God?  Shall Christians be driven, as lemmings or defenseless sheep before the cruel hand of idol worshipers, forced to become refugees, while no one speaks out against this travesty?  Are we so afraid of islam that we will no longer lift our voices against obvious injustice?  Where are the leaders in our own churches, government and community organizations calling for military assistance and asylum for those being forced before this unholy throng of utter thuggery?

“Here I am Lord send me”, words so famously offered to God by Isaiah the prophet as he realized his own inadequacy.  We call ourselves vessels yet we send none to aid those being driven from their homes by the minions of air principalities.  We call ourselves “new creation” yet we offer nothing but a phone call or public “photo op” in absence of any real courage or Holy Spirit direction.  What have we become that we will stand as children are abused, raped, murdered or worse yet forced through conscript to support this unholy nightmare?  Where are the real men of old, willing to stand against tyranny in proclamation of God’s Good Word in defense of women, children and the elderly?  Who will offer themselves as sacrifice to God to shout in righteousness against this darkness?  You are my God, Jesus, Your Will be done, here and in heaven.  Send me, in my weakness your glory will be observed, for I am certainly inadequate to this tasking.

We better begin to “be of good courage” as God directed or all innocence will become capitulated offering as defenseless sacrifice to the iron, bronze and ghastly gods of this age.  Stand against the wiles of our enemy with your shields bound together wielding the two-edged sword of God’s Almighty Word in close combat.  We are the workers for God’s harvest and we must tend the fields until He determines it is time to reap that which has been sown from the seeds planted by Jesus Christ the King.

Wait and believe

http://www.wnd.com/2014/07/science-writer-atheists-might-not-exist/  A funny thing happened on the way to develop my cognitive belief narrative, said that anarchist to the agnostic about the atheist.

How do I maintain composure, trust and assurance through the time of unclear direction by God?  God’s prophets knew well how to react to times when the Lord apparently reserved or had no direction for these men.  They understood the subtle hand of God in their lives, sometimes using “behind the scene” influences to change the course of rivers over time.  What allowed them to wait out these times, resisting the urges of flight or fight, taking a stand where they were to align themselves with God’s lack of direction?

What we believe determines our position, actions, responsibilities and governs our list of potential options when confronted by this world’s direction.  I believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, not as some convenience to add my name to a list of personnel acceptable to speak at luncheons.  I believe that the Lord God knew before the beginning of this or any world that we would rebel in a manner commensurate with our prideful nature.  I believe that although Adam and Eve had the “free will” opportunity to choose otherwise, that God knew they would fall to satan’s convincing rhetoric in the garden.  I believe that the Creator knew that He would have to physically enter time and space as a human being to sacrifice himself in order to demonstrate His amazing love for creation.  I believe that in spite of all the enemy’s attempts to forestall that entry into our dimension, the Lord was born to a virgin mother, humbly having accepted herself as the vessel of God’s entry into the world, fulfilling all prophecy and predictions made by prophets, priests and kings.

Furthermore, I believe that God lived a perfect life as a man, determining for Himself the moment of His death at the brutal hands of human judges as payment of the collective sin debt for all humanity.  I believe that He voluntarily gave up life to pay the awesome price of sin so that all of humankind would again have an opportunity to enter relationship with the Holy, Almighty Creator of the Universe.  I believe that He is God and I am not.  Therefore, I believe that my perspectives on His rules are irrelevant in adapting or changing them.  Since He is the Sovereign Creator, what He says goes.  My only “choice” is one of dedication, whether I will accept His rules and act in compliance or conflict with those written guidelines.

I choose to comply with His awesome gift of pardon for my sins.  I believe that if I repent of my sins and believe that God became man, Jesus Christ, and lived, died and resurrected Himself as propitiation for my sins that I am included in a small segment of humanity that has surrendered ourselves to the Truth that is the Lord God.  I further believe that those who Love God and Truthfully believe will by their new Spirit nature walk a path consistent with His principles, turning themselves away from behaviors associated typically with carnality, selfishness, sensory fulfillment and wanton/wickedness.  The ideas of holiness and wickedness are juxtaposed, they cannot occupy the same space, the same mind or the same life direction.  This is the conflict to which all of humanity finds itself participant.

I believe that the prophets, heroes and notable characters for good in Biblical history shared a commitment to the Light.  I believe that they demonstrated their faith by maintaining course, attitude and action consistent with their belief in God’s Word of Truth.  I believe that they exercised and demonstrated that faith through resolve to wait upon God’s direction rather than taking those dictated by their own hearts and minds.  I believe that they used three techniques; one – they remained connected to God through prayer and scriptural review, two – they stayed the course upon which God had originally launched them and three – they took faith that God was always there especially during times of waiting, accepting fully that even when God’s Hand was not evident that He was inevitably at work behind the scenes orchestrating all things toward good for those who remained true to His calling.

I believe that politically correct speech is the enemy’s effective attempt to force vacillation in commitment.  For example we cannot say that abortion or homosexuality are wrong without potentially violating the “doctrines of tolerance” forcibly enacted by worldly authority.  It forces Christians to silence, which serves the purpose of God’s enemies.  As Christians cannot speak the Truth in faith and love without having to out themselves as pronounced “intolerants”.  This argument is fallacy, devised by the enemy for “truth is truth” and the edicts of right and wrong are written upon the hearts of men to violate or follow.  Even the most ardent atheist has a sense of the wicked and divine.  It is simply wrong to murder, in any circumstance, but the edicts of tolerance would have us move the goal posts of our own belief in order to make certain self-serving practices, like that of abortion, legal to serve the “will of man” and not the Will of God.

Man cannot serve two masters, especially where politically correct speech guidelines are concerned.  We either believe in God’s Word as Truth or we believe in man’s definition/interpretation of right and wrong.  We have collectively made this determination here in America when the rule of law was changed from Biblical virtue to the historical determination of man back in 1872.  And let us be clear, as we all readily know, that negligence, naivete and bystanding are all admissions of guilt/inclusion within the parameters of the doctrines of tolerance.  The Lord makes it crystal that “do nothings” and “say nothings” are included in the party to be judged, not the party to be acquitted.  Remaining silent as a Christian is demonstration of disbelief and inclusion in the Worldly Doctrine Party.  For a man cannot both speak the truth in faith and love as God directs and remain silent to the atrocities and wickedness of humanity/the need for a savior.

I choose to believe in the Word of God, where ever that may lead.  I shall not fear man as I see him rattling his saber above my proffered neck.  I am not bound by the limitations of man or the used car sales pitches of the fallen who would have me believe that this life is all I have.  I am a child of the Most-High God and He has directed that I speak the truth to the world that seems bereft of truth.  I have chosen to wait upon the Lord in every action of my life, certainly I fail, sputter, get weak and have to regain my footing when it falters, but I remain a soldier and priest on the battlefield for Christ.  The Lord is my shepherd, who may I ask is yours?

Mourn

Forgive me Father, for those things I continue to do in direct conflict with your commands for my life.  I mourn for festering sin, it’s growth flourishing, fed by the wanton hearts of a rebellious humanity.  We have been given over to our decadence and the odd becomes worse then reality, it has become socially acceptable norm.  Our children no longer flinch, avoid or become repulsed by abhorrent behavior, they now consider it acceptable, even participating in steadfast support of what God deems abomination.  Lest we forget God’s controlled and just wrath, we must remember the fate of Sodom and Gomorrah as they were wiped from existence not simply for practicing those acts counter to God’s direction but for condoning such behavior.

Forgive me Father for the violence in my heart.  This is the thing that you most dislike about humanity.  I mourn my participation in the summary judgment and rash punishment of my fellow humans as if I have any authority or basis upon which to base my righteous condemnation.  We have followed the enemy in our continual acceptance of brutality against mankind, proclaiming ourselves judge, jury and executioner in our words, deeds, cinema and our propensity to war.  We know from whence these urges are born and promoted, yet we continue to view them as innocuous.  Let us not lend our allegiance or loyalty to an enemy preaching and promoting anything but the Prince of Peace.  Lest we forget the flood which cleansed the earth of a violent humanity whose every thought was of violence, cruelty and ills done to our fellow man.  We must remember the purity which God preserved in Noah’s family, which is easily corrupted by lacking diligence, commitment and vigilance.

Forgive me Father for my inconsistent intercessory prayer.  How may I consider myself, prince and priest if I do not practice those things consistent with an intercessory prayer warrior, through beseeching you continuously in prayer.  We have grown cold in our relationship with you Father.  We consider you more a genie, or djinn to be commanded in time of want or need then the Holy, Righteous, Almighty, God that you are.  My prayer is worship, representative of my true understanding of Your Glory and Sovereignty.  Lest we forget Jesus’ admonition to the churches in the luke warm behavior, return our hearts to persistent prayer.  Teach us to depend totally on you Father for our every need, reward or lesson.  Give us a heart for relationship with you.

Jesus please delay your coming until each of us has done their righteous and willing duty to proclaim the Gospel to everyone for which we have influence, opportunity or responsibility.  Let us comprehend fully the price you’ve paid so that we may assist you in pulling souls back from eternal separation and judgment.  Give us hearts designed for Your Will alone.

Sing of God’s Wondrous Grace

Grace is offered to all willingly and openly.  God stands with open arms welcoming all who heed to calling to repent and surrender, waiting, bidding you come and be forgiven.  You may be set free from the burden, chaos, control and price of sin on your life, having your debts cancelled and sins washed clean by the redeeming blood of Jesus Christ the Lord.  The is no grander gift, than the blood of the righteous and rightful King given as ransom for His beloved creation.  Given so that even the wicked may turn from their sin in repentance and find sufficient grace and abundance in eternity spent with Almighty God.

Forgiven, does that mean what we believe that it means?  Our sins forgotten, separated from us, removed without trace like tar and feathers from a tarnished, snake oil peddler.  Gone, never to be remembered, made new, made whole, healed, saved, cleansed for a timely appointment with an everlasting savior.  I mourn for this world that buckles to the breaking point from the weight of our collective and individual transgression.  Babies murdered, families forgotten, bodies polluted with unholy sex, drink and drugs, people left to suffer in their misery all for the price of power, greed and prominence.  He loves them dearly, enough that He died for them, in their place, waiting until the very last minute to allow them to recognize and accept His standing invite.  What a God that we serve, who would suffer such indignation for the love of men.  He is truly beyond my reckoning.

Father, we cannot go on yet we know nothing else but the wondering of our inescapable thirst, unquenchable hunger and insatiable desire for fulfillment.  Our disobedience is total, there is no innocence left that we have yet to plunder, no pledge inviolate nothing sacrosanct.  We have reached the bottom and having no where left to go we shall soon turn on each other, biting, gnashing, cannibalizing our brothers for the price of breathing room.  Father I ask you to forgive them, draw them near to you so they may see the unwieldy price of their unrepentant sin.  Make of them workers for the coming harvest so that they might someday see Your face or be comforted.  I sing of Your Wondrous Grace knowing my voice is too small, too whimsical, too frail to make any difference above the deafening moans of humanity, but somehow my loving whispers and hums will reach your ears and perhaps bring a smile to Your brow.  I love You and that is more than enough.  Sing of the King, A King who gave everything for those He loved so that He might show them the way to receive His Love in person forever.  Jesus, My God and My King.

The time

http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/06/30/us-health-ebola-leone-idUSKBN0F520F20140630  Pestilence, famine, rumored wars, rumblings in the Earth, signs in the heavens and wide spread death, how many of these Biblical predictions are applicable Today?.  Beyond concern about how this may make me appear, please heed the Lord’s indications of His coming judgment.  Please search your heart and ask God to answer your prayers, even if you simply ask Him to let you know He’s there.  When He answers, as His Word readily promises, then please make a decision for Christ, repent of your sin and accept Him into your life to seal you for eternity and sanctify you for the day you will meet Him face to face.  Time is the only thing we have and it is suddenly in extremely short supply.

Saints be true.  The time of service to the Lord’s Plan is upon us.  This world of people whom “He Loves” stands on the brink of common disaster brought about by dominant, nurtured, unbridled and unrepentant sin.  Their only salvation is found in Jesus Christ. Without a saving knowledge, relationship and belief in Him they shall perish without grace for eternity.

The Lord has designated “us” as the vehicle through which they will acquire this saving knowledge.  The Lord has armed us with a “pipeline of prayer” directly to the throne of God so that we may intercede on the behalf of humanity.  The Lord has shown us what will surely and swiftly come to pass throughout His coming judgment so that we may share the benefits of that foreknowledge with all who may listen.  The Lord has called us to unique service, determined by our particular talents, abilities and treasures with which He has infused us in preparation for performance against particular tasks.  The Lord has designated the day and the hour of His unfolding wrath.  The time is now for us to stand up and do those things that the Lord has designated, directed and demanded be done in advance of His coming.  The time has come for saints to exercise the freedom of “choice” and offer themselves for the completion of God’s Will on Earth as it is in Heaven.

This world’s sin should break our hearts, yet we do not pray in humility as a body.  This world’s predicament and obvious departure from the wisdom of God’s Word ought to crush our spirits driving us first to our knees and then to our street corners proclaiming return to reason.  The Churches departure from a solid Biblical Path to that including, incorporating, tolerating and accepting sin within the Body ought to arouse us to satan’s nesting within the mustard tree.  The gift we have been given ought to empower us to give back to the Lord by loving the people He loved so greatly, by telling them of His Loving Plan.  The time has come to stand up and do that for which we cried out to the Lord at the moment of salvation.  He saved us so that we could tell others of His coming judgment, grace and love.  The time has come, will we listen.  Join me first upon our knees repenting of our own sin and crying out to God for the United States of America and the world.  Then join me in the streets, upon the pulpits and within our families, friends and workplaces proclaiming the truth of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Rain, clouds, lightning, twisters, thunder and relentless, uproarious wind, chasing us to the cellar yet we continue to claim there is no storm.  The child’s cranium is crowned yet we must not admit that labor has arrived or be cast in worry, abandon and unavoidable reflection upon two things; our lack of preparedness and our continual conflict with the acceptance of truth.  The wars have begun, the earth begins to rumble, pagans overrun the unrepentant, pestilence, hunger and death will soon follow.  Time does not wait upon the misinformed, the unbelieving or those captured by the unconscious hands of denial.  When Monday arrives it is time to go to work whether I wish it were not so is irrelevant.  The time for the return of the Messiah is near, we all know it, whether we choose to demonstrate that belief through our actions is in direct correlation to our desire to display faith and dependence upon His Word.  A man who sees danger and seeks shelter in the Lord has seen the proof of wisdom.

I have had the presence of the Holy Spirit of God in my life for years yet I still see those areas of my life to which I have not allowed Him dominion or mastery.  Surrender continues to evade my soul and in moments when I am at my worst, I cry out for the Potter’s Hand upon this vessel.  This is the proving ground, where my dross is to be removed in advance of my audience with a Holy and Righteous Lord, in whose presence I will be completed.  That which I refuse to do or that which I am unwilling to resolve shall be counted loss and something for which I will give an accounting at the seat of my own judgment.  Yes, judgment as a Christian, for even we shall have to explain our works, our deeds or lack there of to a King who already knows them intimately.  I have been given a finite amount of time in this world to demonstrate my faith by walking in His Word of Truth.  Why then in this knowledge do I continue to squander that finite resource called time.  Time is an unbiased jailer, its walls confront us with the limitations of humanity, its controlling hand forces us to reason or denial, uncaring of which we choose.

Lord let me choose You, let me choose life abundantly.  Use this life You have given me to accomplish those things that will bring glory upon your name.  Forgive me for the uninformed, foolish or ignorant actions I continue to commit, yes commit, for this is sin against You.  I am troubled by my lack of growth and unwillingness to surrender all.  Allow me to give all to You before my time is expended, and the opportunity for work passes with the coming night of judgment.  Give me Your Blessing and Your Truth, Always.  I love you Father in the name of my Savior Jesus Christ the Lord of All.

It has come

Even you wish that I would dim the light he has placed upon my life.  I saw the evidence of the enemy resting comfortably today within the body of Christ, travesty.  We have given way to the world, loosened our relentless grip upon truth, instead wanting that all would love us, when He said that they would not.  If the world adores us can we be doing the work that was entrusted to our stewardship?  If we receive praise from those who mock God how then can we remain true to the heraldship of coming judgment?  Would you have me comply with the rules of worldly men that are in direct conflict with the Word of Almighty God?  How can this be an example of my faith in the Lord’s Promises?

Watch the following video and you tell me what it requires to be Christian in the face of devastating circumstance.  You tell me if we have demonstrated that faith which may be required of us in the coming months and years.  Tell me where your heart resides, in the fattened calf of your Father’s Lordship or in the palsied, mockery and pestilence that calls itself the common sense of humanity.  Where will you turn when threatened by the opportunity to trust in God and show your faith real?  Will you comply with the demands of a wicked world, silencing your light, closing your ministry, taxing you out of existence or will you stand upon the promises of God, proclaiming the Gospel though your path pass through the valley of death’s shadow?  If these questions seem unrealistic, foreign or perhaps a bit too radical for the “real world” in which you live, perhaps you should watch the video again and see what “real” really means.

Father, Almighty and Sovereign Lord.  The times are upon us where man will turn against man in quest for domination.  The enemy is in the final throws of desperation, knowing fully of Your Rapid and Imminent Return.  Armor our hearts against his wiles Lord.  Make of us sturdy men willing to embrace eternity prepared and courageous in the Strength of Faith in Your Promises.  Give us Good Courage and the willingness to stand when most would run.  Father, Your Will be done through us and may there be peace in the world as a sign of Your Return.  Father we embrace Your Plan for this world and the next.  In Jesus’ mighty Hand I set my belief and trust.  Praise you with every breath, especially my last.  Amen.  We are amazed by your grace and glory.

The Right Hand

How many people passed away today, to whom we as saints failed to share the good news, saving them from eternity outside the presence of God?  There is nothing that shocks my sense of guilt as this simple, straight-forward question.  Why is that?  Is it because I am responsible for those going to a judgment separate from the mercy of God?  There has to be something to that, for I just feel miserable contemplating the implications of my inactivity.  Perhaps the Holy Spirit of God cries each time someone passes having missed the opportunity to choose grace, using my soul as a cavity from which to make His sadness known.  Oh Lord I am sorry that I failed, please don’t let me miss another opportunity as long as I may live.

Folks the time is winding down, the night is coming, a night so black, where no work may be done.  We must use the remaining daylight to proclaim the gospel to the frowning and misinformed world, praying for our enemies in direct obedience to Christ.  There is no other reason that I continue to draw breath, and if I continue to waste those few moments I have been given to do that for which I was redeemed, what value then have I placed on grace?  See it had to be worth something for the Lord to take off Glory for a while just to save the miserable lot of us from our own slavery and eventual death in sin.  Will I give worth to His Blood Sacrifice or will I treat it with trivial disposition?  I pray that I do not fall short, not because i am seeking some measure, prize or purchase, but because that is what He deserves, my allegiance, service, love and praise.  It is what He first did for me.

Praise Him in all His Glory.  Jesus is His name and He is lives, seated at the right hand of God.

Angry over the whole thing

Do you find yourself racing into the wind, defying the elements, questioning God?  Is God’s unfolding plan for humanity not sitting well with you?  Do you believe that there is a better way to save humanity from inevitable judgment and separation from God?  Or maybe you believe, like Jonah that there are some to which redemption should not be offered, for their sins are unforgivable.  Are you angry with the Lord and reluctant to tell Him?

Here is one of the grandest things that separates the One True God from all the charlatans, He wants to hear the deepest questions of your heart and help you to accept the unacceptable truth about this world and the next.  Are your fears mounting as we head into a time when the world is unraveling before us?  Take those fears to God and allow Him to encourage you and bid you be of “Good Courage” in the knowledge that He still sits upon His throne.  The things that are happening, must happen in order for things to become so difficult that even those “hard of heart” believers will be shaken from their tree, falling to the ground at the foot of the cross.  There is no avoiding what must soon come to pass, nor should we feel that we must resist these changes, for they are part of God’s eternal plan for mankind.  Pray for peace in Jerusalem, I pray for peace in your heart.

Yes, our rulers, leaders, representatives and families have gone seemingly haywire.  Wrong is right and bad is good in this alternative, ethical relativist global climate.  This is to be expected as it was predicted thousands of years ago in scripture setting up the circumstances where the Jewish people will cry out for the Messiah’s return.  There is no other way, so if you are looking for one, you may wish to reconsider aligning yourself with a plan that is not from God.  Pray for our leaders to have a return to wisdom, good judgment and dedication to God’s principles, just as the apostles prayed for Rome.  We must not hate, divide and determine each man’s qualifications for redemption based upon our own judgment for we are “not” God.  His ways are above my own, unknown to me, unfathomable as the depths of the universe are to common man.  We must have “faith” in God’s plan as the best possible thing that could happen for humanity.

Try letting go of your anger by taking it to God in prayer and meditation upon His word, in return you will receive a peace that surpasses the understanding of this world. That is why it is called “supernatural”, above nature, because it comes from outside our capacity and resolve.  Don’t allow this world to define or taint the definition and perfection of God’s plan.  Remember the enemy’s greatest gift is an ability to twist and re-manufacture truth in a palatable fashion acceptable to mankind’s desire.  Learn the truth, know the truth and utilize the truth to keep you and your family safe from false teaching, false hope and false gods.  In the name of Jesus I ask God the Father to heal your heart and stem your anger leading to hope, peace and preparedness for the coming of the Lord.

Live Truth

Nicolas Cage makes Rapture ‘bigger’ than ever

  Hollywood in conflict, more pressure continues to be placed upon fence sitting.  Are you ready for judgment day?

Can  I let go of the wrongs that have been done me and those things I see that offend God?  What is forgiveness that the Lord would offer it to the entirety of humanity?  Is there a prize so compelling in human behavior that we cherish more than this type of love, called forgiveness?  Do I look to the Lord to free, resolve, remove and relinquish those offenses in my own heart or must I continue to look over my neighbors fence for necessary changes?  Aren’t those things/standards to which I hold my fellow humans accountable not exactly the same things with which I continue to struggle or have been given freedom via the changes of Holy Spirit?  How can I hold grudge for errors of soul to which I myself may still or once found myself enslaved?  Father forgive them for they know what they do, but forgive me even more for I have judged them for their misgivings, lack of faith or sensibility.

This world is astray.  It is not one step off the path it is now several generations departed from fealty, service and relationship with God.  We are not the apostate church we are an apostate humanity determined to winnow, root out or deny God’s authority over every part of our lives in His infinite and compelling sovereignty.  The voices in the desert are silenced calling men to make straight their paths as the Kingdom of God has come.

Even our greatest pastors now have millions of dollars tied up in the trappings of blessed ministries, such that they truly are no longer free to speak the absolute truth of God having to be cautious of man’s legalities and feared losses.  I see these flaws in my own ministry as the blessings like rain pour down upon my life and I see growth where once was fallow ground.  This is not easy, but we must be “perpetually” ready to lose all for the Word of God.  If we do not prepare our hearts in this fashion then we are denying and disobeying the charge placed upon us by God, for it may very well cost us everything reach the last soul for Christ.  If you aren’t in it to win it, risking, surrendering and enduring everything for the furtherance of Grace then you may as well stay home.  Stacking up, piling, hoarding and counting the blessings of God without while one soul goes unreached, unhealed, unserved, unfed or minimized is disobedience to that blessing.

Churches that have huge tracts of land while people are starving for food, shelter and water, should be ashamed for missing the purpose of blessing and grace.  If there is but one orphaned child in your town, city or state without care and adoption into the fold of the Body of Christ while your church brandishes great coffers, investment accounts and real estate holdings, then you should sell that profit and provide for these forgotten children or be in direct disobedience to God’s Direction.  If you pray for God’s will to be done on Earth and He has given you the assets to start, foster or complete the realization of His Will and you are not using those assets to promote that Righteous Will then you are double minded, hypocritical and a liar before Christ.  Give as it has been given unto you.  I say these things to myself and ask God’s forgiveness and restoration of my heart to use those things I have been given for His Purpose.  All else is folly and service to self and the darkest fallen.

Guide us, free us, reveal Your Self to us oh Sovereign Lord of All.  In the Name of Jesus Christ the King of Everything.  Amen
