You doubt that judgement must come because things are in disarray and God, having the power to set them right refrains from intervention.  This is blatant disregard of understanding, logic and God’s proclaimed Love for mankind.  He said that He sent His beloved son to die for all of us, so that we might be set free, reintroduced to the Holy God who made us.  Why then would He cut that opportunity short to enforce a final judgement when to do so would dissolve the coming turn of hearts back to Him, chased home by the tragic events He said must and certainly will soon come upon us all.  You see many will find the heat unbearable, realizing in the midst of their plight that God had been there always, waiting patiently for their arrival.  That is the extent of God’s Love for humanity, in waiting He must watch our suffering, knowing that to eradicate sin from the world would nullify the salvation of millions, perhaps billions of souls.  That is Love.

Do not believe in lesser gods when the One who Loves us so dearly is the origin of Awe.  We do not serve or wait upon an imaginary god, or something crafted in man’s imagination.  God is something that surpasses our imagination, because we paint everything with our own frail faith and our worldly wounds at the hands of corruptible man.  I pity your wounded imagination which cannot perceive an incorruptible God, outside the stains and blotches of humanity.  This makes Him no less real because we lack the capacity to perceive, comprehend or believe.  Nor does it free the world from His coming Wrath and Judgement simply because we refuse in rebellion or disbelief to prepare for the inevitable.  See He does not need my understanding or my imagination to exist nor does He need my permission or compliance to enforce His order, His discipline upon a world that He created and sustains out of patient Love for those people who He cares for dearly.

I love you, but if you will not listen to God, then you most likely will consider me fool.  No matter my concern for you, no matter the truth and love of my words, though they be filled with wisdom, insight and irrefutable logic, you will ignore them all.  For this exercise, this life is about one choice.  Not a simple choice made without consideration, but one encoded within the DNA of each man and woman.  A choice to hear, obey and accept God’s Truth or to deny it, serve ourselves and face the horrors of our imagination, because that is what awaits us all if we fail to choose wisely.  My care for you, my softly chosen words, my regard and respect for your spirit will mean nothing, except to solder my tears in catharsis.  But this is why I speak to You in His Words, because they unlike my own may raise the dead and save the innocent.  That is why I speak in scripture, because His Word is the two edged sword sharp enough to the cleave bone from sinew and spirit from soul.  Did you ever wonder what that meant, separating spirit from soul?  Or do these grand mysteries the greatest treasures of this life leave you bothered and bored?  I pray in the Mighty Name of the Lord Jesus Christ that some words I give you spark your curiosity such that you are forced to ask for answers, seek to unfold the riddles and eventually find the Truth at the foot of God’s Throne.  For that is where He waits for you as a kind, loving Father would for His children to come Home.

What are you afraid of, is it man’s unfavorable opinion of you, the loss of wealth, coming inevitable old age and death or is it God’s Wrath upon the ungodly?  Doesn’t that fear govern your possibility?  Isn’t fear the single largest barrier to your victory in whatever endeavor?  What you fear you will not pursue, you will not challenge but rather avoid, conceal or ignore until it once again changes your course and destiny.

Do you believe that you can be free of all these virtual prisons?  They are virtual because they fool the senses into belief in their reality even to the extent of raising the blood pressure and causing panic.  They mimic reality and utilize the natural instinctive alert systems telling us to fight or flee in order to cause panic, flight or paralysis.  Don’t you think that satan knows this factor and continues to play the heart strings of our nervous systems?  What then must a believer do to be free?  The answer, nothing.  We are not works performers, we are believers in the power of the Holy Spirit and the Works of the Lord Jesus Christ in cleansing us, freeing us and leading us into assured victory.  Fear is the enemy, reverence in God is the key to our pardon.

Do you fear what God could do to your eternal destination?  Then you have met wisdom.  Certainly we want to be assured in our salvation and that is entirely possible, in fact it is a reward that comes with our faith.  But in order to meet Wisdom, the Mind of Christ, we must first acknowledge God’s Sovereignty.  That includes God’s Sovereignty over our fears, fears dispelled in the certain knowledge that God Reigns and Rules even in the fearful factors that confront us.  Psalm 23, Davids proclamation of faith in God’s Sovereignty over his fear is the perfect place to begin the practice of turning over our worldly fears, exchanged for reverence in God’s Faithfulness, Power and Trustworthiness.

The sense of fear running up and down my spine is a electrical communication signal.  What I do in response to those signals must then fall within my reasoned or determined reaction.  If not, then I am simply a puppet to this world’s stimuli to be manipulated by whatever impetus blows by on tonight’s chilly wind.  I am not ruled by the stimuli, signals and impetus of the night, the devil or my own recollection.  I have been set free by the Holy Spirit of God, set free for eternity, anchored to the immovable Rock of Ages, The Lord God.  When fears come I appreciate their stimuli, their indication of potential danger, but I will not be governed by those electronic and illusory signals.  I will not continue to leave an open door for the enemy to control my access to victory.  I will pray to God to close that door and give me wisdom and discernment to determine what is real and what is virtual.  I will fear God and be filled with wisdom rather than fear man and the devil and be relegated to the prison of the unreal or emotion.  I will believe in the Power of God, the Freedom of Faith in the Works of the Lord Jesus Christ to set me free from sin, death and the devil.  In God I trust.  Thank you Jesus.

Being content with what we have received is a lynch pin in growth and opportunity.  It is hard to go to God with a thankful heart when I do not truly believe that I am blessed with what I have already been given, materially, relationally, and Spiritually.  I am not advocating or indicating that we shall place a goofy smile upon our faces and ignore the pain in our hearts surrounding our circumstances, although my goofy grin is indelible.  What I am saying is that the unfavorable circumstances we have been placed in are most frequently the exact training material for our edification.  That doesn’t make it more pleasant but we must remember that God is still in control, even within our arduous situation.

I do not like the pain, but I respect and understand that the pain will build my patience and if I stand my ground, conscious of my gratitude and attitude that at some point my faith will grow and my walk mature.  It seems that I am offering small consolation, but this is no small thing, this is learning to Trust God’s Plan vs. holding fast to my own concepts and understanding.  This is often so difficult for me that it nears the impossible, fortunately that is the point where I know that any resolution must come from God.  When we have reached the end of our tolerance, energy, assets, talents, abilities, creativity and cleverness we are exactly where God may use each of us.  What will I do when confronted with that moment, the point where I am empty?  Well I certainly cannot depend on myself, so I can either give up or wait upon God.  I wish I had gotten to that mind state prior to using up all my God given blessings.  Maybe next time I will trust God and thank Him for the opportunity to struggle through the mire.

I acknowledge Him right where I am.  That does not mean that I may just wander, willy nilly up ever hill and dale looking to serve my strategies.  What it does mean is that if I am surrendered to God’s Will for my life, having studied to show myself approved in rightly dividing the Word, then I will be given peace regarding the obstacles, battles and disasters as they arrive.  None of us is incident free.  No one lives a life of no challenge.  For if we do then it is extremely likely that the growth opportunity quotient, the sword sharpening will never come.  I desperately want peace and I may have it as I accept Life in its abundance.  I must not fall pray to the worldly ideals that if I have troubles then I cannot have peace, for often that is exactly when I find the kind of Peace offered by Jesus Christ.  In the midst of circumstance, when it makes no common sense, when it confounds the human idea, that is exactly when this type of peace changes hearts and minds.  I love you Lord and I love those who Love You.  In Your Name I pray.

What is the quickest way that God draws you back to Him?  Is it pain as with my separation, perhaps tragedy, loneliness, distance or shame?  You know that state that you cannot withstand, that predicament that will cause you to cry out for mercy, salvation and deliverance.  Do you feel the longing, a barrier or space between you and God?  Does it make you queezy, uneasy or sad?

I crave that thing which brings me immediately into God’s Presence.  Unfortunately for those around me it is usually a reminder of my inadequacy brought on by a much needed lesson in humility delivered to my doorstep, because He loves me enough to do so.  God doesn’t like being away from me.  I know, I cannot know the mind or heart of God.  I am simply assuming, because every time I walk away from Him doing my own thing, He gives me the exact pitch I cannot hit, the relationship I cannot resolve or the difficulty I cannot overcome.  And zam zoom, I am right back where I should have been all along, on my knees asking the Lord for assistance.  The problem with my behavior is that if I had listened in the first place and recognized my consuming desire for God’s Love and Approval, I never would have had to force His hand into teaching me the lesson.  I know that is probably backwards logic, because He knew before the beginning of time that He was going to have to provide me the opportunity to once again learn the same lesson I had missed the last, it seems one-hundred thousand times.   But it does bring me some comfort in my idiocy to think that God loves me that much.

I cannot bear my brokenness, hard head and heartedness, heck sometimes I cannot even test the waters of thinking I am in any small measure useful for God’s Good Pleasure.  But that is exactly where I should have been in the first place, because it was never my talent that He found useful.  I am most appealing as an empty vase, tarnished, chipped, cracked and half lacquered.  The irony for man is that we matter so much to Him that He came to save us then use as vessels and conduits for His majesty.  That is so deep it is a bottom I cannot fathom.  All I know is that I need Him.  Not just ever day, but ever moment of every day.  And the most painful idea is that I ever wasted a moment thinking that I could do it on my own, because I cannot.  I admit it.  I need God even more than air for air simply sustains me in life where God will be my foundation through eternity.  Please Lord don’t let me wander far and allow me to escape the pain that it apparently requires to keep me conscious of my place in the universe.  But, my worst fear is that you just let me go and for that I would suffer all the promptings, however painful if they always brought me back to the place I belong, under the shadow and shelter of Your Mighty Wings.  Praise You Father in the Awesome Name of Jesus.

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.  But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.  And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.  The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.  Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.  For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?  The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,  Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.  He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.  Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.  Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.  I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.  Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.  Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.  Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.  Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.  Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. Psalms 1 & 2

What is blessed and why would it benefit a man to abstain from walking by the advice of ungodly counsel?  How is it beneficial to stand apart from sinners or refrain from participation in round tables that mock or scorn God?  What are the traits that make a man who perpetually ponders God’s Law, delightful?  How may he be likened to a tree that is well planted and sufficiently watered to point of bearing good fruit, in due time?  What makes ungodly folks like dry stalk that is easily disbursed by the wind?  Why are the ungodly precluded from standing against or for righteous judgment?  Why are sinners not accepted in a righteous congregation?  Why do the righteous withstand the scrutiny of God’s knowledge while the same review of ungodly behavior enforces death?  So many seek answers to all their self initiated questions, but they seldom take time to contemplate the questions that arise naturally from contemplation of God’s Word.  These questions are important, defining and their answers Earth Shaking, why then would we skip the opportunity to ask the Holy Spirit for these crucial answers?

Please take a few minutes to review and meditate upon Psalms 2 and you will see that many of the answers point firmly and undeniably toward God’s Love for Jesus and His resolution toward punishing the ungodly for their defiance to His command and for chastising believers.  This is the repeated theme that relativists, self-servers, atheists and those established servants of darkness must at all costs proclaim illusion.  This belief that God is sovereign, all powerful and that His righteous Law applies to everyone is absolutely unfathomable to man who would be his own king.  They prefer illusion to truth and hide in the darkness of self-righteousness to avoid the reality that God is in charge, makes the rules and is the only wielder of judgment for man’s behavior.  Therefore having no mechanism or vehicle to battle against an Almighty God they do what any other coward would and attack those who believe in and serve that Almighty God.  Cowardice preys upon innocence, just as wolves love to eat defenseless sheep.  But the day will come when the Good Shepherd avenges this devastation of the innocent and enforces judgment and justice upon all who wrongly believe that there is no price for sinful action.  The wages of sin is death and God’s death proclaimed for this unbelief lasts eternally and burns indefinitely.  God is fair giving us all the choice to either obey or defy, that type of conscious decision comes with no excuse or logical defense.  God is Just, Right and True.  I will not stand against His Sovereign Authority for a few years of living my own lie.

Lord Jesus come soon, but if You don’t, give us strength to joyously accept our individual and collective purpose within Your Great Plan for humanity.

Face this day with the knowledge that God fights for you and it will lose its sting.  This is not our home, hard word to comprehend.  How then may I become embroiled in circumstance, being pulled into the details of episodes that are meant for my training and His Glory?  I do not like the way this loss, this hate, this missing love feels, but I know what it breeds within my spirit, a craving.  That craving for home, the garden, walking with God in the cool of the day.  There is no other purpose here but to practice for eternity and play some part, even a small one in pulling others from the unconscious and desperate fray.  This is the day, and like it or not I will rejoice in it as the only one I have been given that leads to the next and the next eventually to Him.

Father I am sorry for refusing to let go of scenarios plaid out from my childhood, trying foolishly to work out the scenes that did not end in my favor or find the love that I was not given.  Surrounding myself with the exact same characters and scenery, again and again is insanity, hoping to somehow arrive at different, more favorable outcome.  That is never how this works.  Thank you that you will use these things for the good of your purpose, because I certainly am either incapable of letting go or this play is the one that will teach me what I must invariably learn.  Forgive me for not loving them to the fullest, for begrudging them gain upon which my own envy was set.  This is so distasteful, especially the rolls that have been repeated innumerably.  I pray that you finally set me free of these vestiges of a life gone bye, take them from me so that I may truly become that new creature You’ve intended.

Waiting has always been my greatest weakness for in waiting I find my greatest enemy, my impatience and desire to have things work out the way I have prescribed.  That is not what my heart truly wishes, yet I continue to play the role.  May I bow and leave the stage now Lord, please.  For I tire of myself, not in a hateful, loathing manner but rather in boredom of my incapacity to rise above this same mundane performance.  The secret is in the desire for accolade, notoriety, glory.  Set me free from these pursuits, let me simply serve and delight in the successes of those you love as they see Your Glory fulfilled.  Give me peace Father.  Lord Jesus, I do not doubt that I would make the same mistakes Your Apostles made, but that does not matter for I believe that it is in the living that our reward is fulfilled.  I love You and though I repeatedly fail, I know that You know my heart and love me dearly, so continue on I shall.  For my prizes are the people and the path that leads to the only destination I truly desire a day spent sitting in quiet with You.  Bless Your Name Lord God through Jesus Christ my King.

What is the danger of narcissism or political motivation within the Church Body?  When I am looking at me, I am not listening for God’s direction.  When I am manipulating people, assets and situations for my own intention then I am winnowing energy necessary to complete God’s Plans.  When I am segregating people and things toward achievements built within my own vision, I will naturally divide, segment and divert people, assets, time and energy such that I limit our over all potential.  We see the effects of this division in every city across our nation, where Churches are all trying to succeed on their own with no general cooperation.  This division of potential whether by denomination, color, ethnic origin or simply ego places the victory within our cities outside the realm of achievable goals, thus keeping us from the radical breakthroughs or miracles we know are possible in Christ.  This is America in my day, where the enemy has largely convinced us we must remain divided, fractured and mediocre instead of embracing the victory promised us by Almighty God.

The good thing is that He also uses all things for the good of His Good Purpose for them who love Him and walk according to that Purpose.  That means even when I have less than perfect intentions He intervenes through my actions and turns things to His desired results.  That is comforting, but wouldn’t it be wonderful if we all stopped in fighting, back biting, segregating, territorializing and setting up our own little religious fiefdoms instead cooperating to achieve His intentions for our cities, towns and counties?  That may be why Jesus hates the practice of separating the professional clergy from the laity.  For when we have a professional clergy they develop their own vision for their church with a little “c”, thus diverting from the overall vision of Jesus’ Church, with the big “C”.  Isn’t that what led satan to fight against God in the first place, his ego, his pride, clouding his judgement to the point where he actually believed he could lead successful rebellion?

I have had enough of my own rebellion.  Certainly I have a reasonable measure of ambition and vision, but that vision should never limit what is possible if I simply dedicated myself to giving God all the Glory by applying one hundred percent of my time, talent and influence to achievement of Kingdom directives.  Do you see the divisions in your own church, your community, your city, state or country?  How can you help heal these divisions and bring people together so that God may heal this land, build bridges and cooperative effort toward resolving some of our greatest problems.  We all know that if we do not work together that we cannot do what must be done.  Why then do we continue to settle for second best?  Lord, help me to bring you into every interaction today.  Please heal these wounds that have been festering for decades in our cities.  Give our leaders fresh vision of cooperation and self-sacrifice, a vision that may have been present in our God fearing past but has been forgotten or overlooked for our own pursuit of glory.  Let me be humble in my service so that you may hear my prayers and heal this land as I turn from my own understanding and embrace Your Vision for Creation.  Give me the power to overcome fear, division and ego to encourage a better world.  In Jesus’ Name.

We know that God looks to a man’s heart.  What is love to you?  Not to the guy next to you, to you.  For Love’s purpose within your own heart, whether craving in neediness, giving in self-sacrifice or burdened with having never felt its velvet touch drives a man to immeasurable heights.  What could measure to this precious gift?  You will struggle to name it even in comedic attempt.

What God has given us is for use to seed the garden.  He will bring the increase, exponential perhaps, but again something left to His Will, Kindness and Promises.  Why then must we use the love he has given us so sparingly?  It seems as though we do not know abundance only rationing and scarcity.  How may a man overflow into another person’s life when he himself is only slightly full?

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 

Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried in fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. 1Peter1:3-9

This life, this Christianity, this living for Christ, in Christ and He through each of us is meant to be a time of overflowing joy, peace and most of all, Love.  We were not meant for sparse thinking but to share for the Living Waters of an Eternal Well Spring.  To offer water, or air or food, help, praise, song, prayer or counsel we must have first been filled of these things by Almighty God through Christ.  For this life is simply a time of trial in our faith through various temptations, situations and emotion.  But we never face these alone as does every man or woman that does not know Jesus.  Imagine your pain intensified by being entirely helpless without shelter in Christ.  I remember so short a time ago when I was a wretched man and I thank God that I am able to help those still caught firmly in the chain of sin.  They need His help and we are meant to lead them to Him for relief.

My struggle is with myself for command of my conscious attitude.  Shall I whine about circumstance when I know these trials produce patience leading to renewed, invigorated or increasing faith?  Shall I demonstrate negativity when those about me desperately seek relief from the python grasp of sin and death?  Or maybe, can I raise my eyes in victory, knowing where my hope resides, proclaiming hope and joy and peace to those who desperately need, Him?  This fire, is a Holy thing, consuming the chaff of my life, forcing the dross from my bones, leaving only refined mettle, the mettle of man born again through Christ.  I will stand in it awhile, if He bids me so and know that doing so makes me more like Him.  Thank you Father, thank you Dad.  This is the day I was given I will rejoice and be glad in it.  All Praise to God the Father in the Name of Jesus Christ the King.

If you see and do not recognize the signs then perhaps you do not know what God told us will swiftly come to pass.  Don’t you want to know so you can either ignore or be prepared?

Either the Bible is true in its entirety or it is dispensable.  Most and I repeat Most Christians face the Bible with an eisegetic perspective.  That is, they have a behavior, concept or idea that they want to be true and scour Bible Verse for validation.  These same people will continually fail to read the Bible from cover to cover, for that would invalidate their excuse in painted negligence.  If I don’t know about it then I will not have to honor its direction is their cry as they approach life in direct disobedience to God’s Second Commandment.  It must be noted that this argument neither works with God nor when confronted by judge or jury in the court of law.  What then is the cost for my never having read or heard the Bible?

How do I know God if not but by reading, comprehending and making decision to depend upon the Word He has given?  If I don’t know what He wants us to do, how can I safely and truthfully state that I believe?  How may I have a relationship with someone I do not know?  Knowledge provides data leading to belief.  Belief is based upon conscious determination resulting in demonstrable action reliant upon a foundation of faith that something is, in fact, to each of us, real.  Do each of us know the parameters of salvation?  Do we know that salvation is based entirely upon faith, faith in the redemptive price paid to buy back each of our souls from slavery, a fee paid by Jesus Christ upon the Cross.  Salvation may not be found in good behavior or deeds, it does not matter how good each of us is, only that we believe in the Works of Jesus Christ Himself.  Additionally, salvation is not based on how bad each of us is or was, again sin is forgiven for all mankind when they believe in the redemptive Work of Jesus Christ on the Cross.  How may I know this without having been heard God’s Word preached or having read the Word of God regarding this issue within the Bible?  And may I simply overlook, escape or correctively re-interpret God’s Word to my own liking to avoid the consequence or rationalize any action I feel like taking?

Do I know God’s Word or am I putting on a front hoping that no one will notice?  I am an effective thespian, I may put on the guise of a true believer when mingling.  Does that free me from the reality to which I am consigned, that I neither know God’s Word or truly have relationship with God, through Jesus Christ, the only Way, Door and Light?  I ask this because the reality found in asking myself this question brought me to the beginning of wisdom where I truly began to fear God.  This is the one place in our lives where our acting ability is a detriment and perhaps our greatest and most deceptive enemy or obstacle.  For each of us must be entirely true before God where our self-centered works will be incinerated when first we meet.  Each of is known fully, totally, entirely by God.  Nothing of my life is concealed from His omniscience.  Negligence in this circumstance does not effectively explain away my continued deception or lack of initiative to know and follow His Word.  With God there is no excuse it either is or isn’t for He is the Great I AM.

So how do you look upon the Bible?  Do you know what I mean when I speak of New Jerusalem and if not are you willing to take off the mask of your rebellion and admit that you do not know the Bible and therefore are limited in your relationship to God?  Do you know the intention of the Ten Commandments as the law given to show us our sin so that we might know the need for salvation?  Are you depending upon anything that you have done or will do in this life to earn you access or permission to enter God’s Presence?  Do you lack the power of conviction in your life, have you ignored your calling to tell others about Jesus?  Is there evidence of the presence of the Holy Spirit in your life and if there isn’t are you willing to face the fact that you may not have ever been saved?  Do you know Jesus or does He just know you?  Read the Bible, Listen to its preaching, discuss it with other believers and stay connected with God through the Holy Spirit by belief in Jesus Christ.  That is the only way to Truth.  Any other path is one you’ve paved yourself and leads to the broad road of destruction.  In Jesus’ Name.

It is near impossible to fend off evil when you have been convinced that evil is only a matter of perspective.  Though beauty lay within describer’s scope, evil steals from the blind, rapes the unwilling and craves innocent blood.  Just because you have never seen the passionate eyes of wickedness, as it watches life subside within its strangle, simply leaves it outside of your experience not outside existence.  There are those who would take what you have, poison all that is good and giggle at your gasping breath.  Do not be fooled into believing that every man knows compassion for some shake their fists at God.  Certainly forgive them, certainly offer them up in prayer, but also know that God will consign them to Hell in eternal judgment for their unwillingness to repent, their service of sin and their allegiance to the powers and principalities of the air.

This is the enemy of God, this wickedness, this penchant for sin and desire to consume in the soul’s endless hunger for stimulus.  That is why the term is spree, for they delight in consumption, craving, seeking hungering for that which belongs to others.  What they cannot control out of strong character, honor, work and love they will feed upon, owning it in tyranny.  We were not meant to coincide, condone nor cohabit with evil.  We are meant to stand against it, knowing that God’s fight for all humanity out of love for His Creation.  Do not be led astray, take a fresh look upon your life and offer any sin, dark corner, rebellion and harbored filth to God for cleansing.  These practices, thoughts and hidden whims are part of your rebirth, they are succubi, clinging to your eternal spirit, praying for your descension.

Evil exists, though it will try it hardest to convince you that ethical relativism makes everything acceptable.  They will beckon you to “do as they do”, until you are satisfied, but trust this, you will never be satisfied.  For wickedness and sin are temporary highs.  They bring you into euphoria, then drop you from the heights, leaving you ravenously craving, “More”.  There is no true fulfillment in sin, even God’s enemies never tire in their endless hunger.  There is only one absolute power and He wants for nothing except that we be saved through faith.  Just as we must remain conscious of evil, we must never forget that God remains in charge of everything.  Yes, He could rid the world of evil, and He will but just not yet.  Why?  Because, He loves mankind so much that He is waiting for all those who will come to decision, repentance and life everlasting to do so before He passes resounding and final judgement.  That is the true extent of God’s Love.  He knows that some who are currently doing evil will have a change of heart and turn their lives around on bended knee asking for forgiveness and release.  Evil will have its day in court, just not yet, so while we wait upon God’s patience, do not be deceived or conned into slumber.  Be ready, be prepared, be watchful and be filled with His Spirit.  In Jesus’ Name
