Hand

Hearts aflame candescent. Bestowed with tongues of fire, shaken by the present Lord. In fetal ignorance I wandered wild, petulant, thinking myself Free. Self-captured in pride and sands of foundation impure. Beset by the mortal influences of time, pain and expectation. I lost access to fury beyond my own wakeful understanding. In this time I dwelt bereft of aspiration to stellar existence.

Which are my options? Those televised in my own conditioned response of temporal catalyst. Broken, shattered, torn, ripped from the pages of my own scripting. My belligerence, made known to the universe which laughed. My troubled fixation quickened by the flames of wisdom and arrival. Perched not in prowess or presentation, made ready for the Hand of God’s Works in revelation of each dawn. Where then are footfalls aptly placed, when climbing mountains yet viewed or pathways yet wrought?

In Glory I repel the walls of descent to final prudence. The valley repaired, rivers flowing to the seas yet ventured. I plant, walk, seeking rest for verdant seed of God’s eternal planting. The weight and gravity of physical limits removed, compelling me skyward toward justice and peace. Bound by vision beyond Earth, sky and mooring to islands in perpetual dimensions of frequency, light and mass. What then may harass a man of such independence in view and metaphysics? Well those things which beset all creatures of Creation, thinking ourselves adequate to a story written by the Fingers of Sovereign.

Resolution

When God called me, I chose to run from that recognition of this contact. His continued pursuits though recognized brought flight and greater self-deception aided by God’s enemies who want to help me be blind. It was the pain of this life that ended that attempted escape and brought my flight to resolution in surrender. I know that most do not wish to read, like, follow or share these thoughts. For to do so would acknowledge your own flight from God or perhaps elucidate your seared conscience or recognition of the Holy Spirit’s call. Maybe He has given up and included you with those who’ve chosen against Him. Does this in any way upset or arouse your sensibilities?

I run toward God now not away. That is what a man does when someone has saved his life and shown himself utterly trustworthy in perpetuity. God has demonstrated to me as He has promised to all that He is faithful and true to complete that work He first began in the man He saved. This man. I have been transformed over decades of experiences and chastening by God’s messengers and Spirit to rise above my previous limitations and self-direction. Now I look to the impossible as entirely doable not through self but by the presence of the King within who gave me privilege, power and protection to operate on a Spiritual Field of Battle. Have I repeated that this is not of my own doing but rather resolution to the fact of God’s Works within my mind, heart, Body, Spirit and Soul.

We are now faced with a world beyond most human control, but not one that is outside the Christian Scope. For we have studied and made ourselves approved that we have relationship with God, We Know Him and demonstrate that as we do our love by obeying His commands. However, it must be said it takes dependence, Faith and an understanding of His Word to see those events which challenge each of us. This world has arrived at the times when God said we should expect His return. That return and the recognition of the season means that the enemies of God will soon expect their brief and dangerous rise to power. God knows all this will happen and we too begin furnished the Word, the Mind of Christ and the privilege of prayer know too that we shall face the worst times known to the world of man and prevail. Not of our own authority but through His residing in the Person fo the Comforter, God’s Holy Spirit within our hearts.

Now is the time of resolution to those challenges and preparedness for those things which we certainly know must swiftly come to pass for God to return. This is a time of reeadiness and groundwork for the coming Kingdom. It is not a time of talk or reason and pondering though they may occur but rather a Time of Our Book of Acts as the Church of God in Ambassadorship to the World and resistance/restraint of His defeated enemy. At some point the enemy shall be given authority to make war against the saints and prevail for a time. Considering that awful truth we as the Body must then rightly expect that since the enemy shall prevail that many Christians will be persecuted by those enemies for their inclusion in the Faithful. What then may we do to prepare for these challenges if we know that we may not prevail against them. The objective of these challenges is the pregnant opportunity to bear fruit commensurate with Spirit and that which shall bring Glory to the Name of God.

What then is that Resolution to things over which we now have power and authority and some or all of us shall somehow lose and be overcome? Will there be a different outcome based upon that preparation and faith? Will those who are unprepared or missing some mysterious seal fall directly into those moments of persecution which they may have indeed avoided? That is one of the most impactful questions of our day. If there is rapture those who are prepared obviously as the maidens in the Bible had sufficient oil in their lamps to be ready for the Master’s return for the Church. Unfortunately that also demands that half of them were not ready having insufficient oil to navigate the night of the Lord’s Return. This demands or suggests that Christians must know that answer to be ready for the Master and consequently avoid or escape the persecution of the enemy in that period of authority over the Saints. Do you know this answer and if you did would you make resolution to take the necessary steps to bring these advantageous protective measures about?

The Oil is the Seal of the Holy Spirit and the filling of His characteristics and Power in each Christian Born again Heart. Ephesians 1, the very first chapter tells this entire Truth. If you wish to know you will study and do whatever God’s Word, Spirit and Whisper tells you to do to get that filling. If you should need help please ask.

Praise God

In the middle of my wanderings did i forget about the Lord? I sat upon the shield of faith and saw no cause to pull His Sword.

Neglected all His Promises and promised to myself. I would always find dependence in my talent, luck and wealth.

Praise God for His Power and His Mercy, Praise God rejoice in the Risen King. Praise God who invited us to Glory, Praise God let all His people sing.

In the midst of my dilemma in foolishness and pride. I failed to recognize Him standing steadfast by my side.

Cunning in my calculus and certain in my doubt. Pursuing my own happiness, I forgot what joy was all about.

Praise God for giving us His Spirit, Praise God His Arms were open wide. Praise God for the Gospel and its wisdom, Praise God for freeing us from pride.

In the person of Lord Jesus I find the shelter from the rain. He freely gives me wisdom to withstand this life of pain.

Praise God for the moment and forever, Praise God for the Love He showed to All. Praise God to spend eternity together Praise God for giving us the call.

He gave me grace and mercy when I followed or forgot. He stood beside His Covenant whether I was cold, warm or hot.

He looked out for my heart and mind from heaven far above. He sent me swift reminders of His undying Love.

Praise God for His Power and His Mercy, Praise God rejoice in the Risen King. Praise God who invited us to Glory, Praise God let all His people sing

No other god’s before me in for I am the ONLY One. Remember me in Sovereignty for you are my adopted Son.

The time is soon upon US His Kingdom is at hand. Time for the world and heaven to be shaken as He planned.

Orbit

AS night intrudes, pushing day past the boundaries of heaven we are left to reminisce on the colors woven in the heavens. Another day escapes this veracious bully with appetites for shadow, sinister repose and the recesses of sinful pursuit. In the wee frozen moments passed midnight the beasts of darkness seek pray, purchase and passion before wakened by the morn. The doe see doe of dawn rekindles the hunt for righteousness and the healing hand of warmth and light upon the hearts of men.

Left to the dark in reflection and prayerful recounting we no longer accept the offered fear and panic raiment to silence the joyful songs of passion. Though the dark each day forgotten the light shines forth within each heart, mind, soul and strength. Untarnished, unrestrained, spirit alive in disregard of night. Free to be warmed and fed dreaming of the morrow, where light once again illuminates in wisdom all those who anticipate the Truth.

The turning away to call itself pure wisdom is to ignore that water is wet and fire hot. The potency in deception found in dismissal of those things which may never be dismissed in open regard of verity. To have joy one may not find it through consummation of splendor or destruction of hope and courage, but in the reward of these simple august pleasures. To measure life in worth and understanding rather then gold or castle’s kept. What makes of men the thing which surpasses our forgetting. To make marks beyond the simple divinations of import or power’s place in aggression or conquer. But to the finer moments of fragility and faith found in men who tender their belief investing in those things defined in everlasting.

What then is the joy of nights sweet splendor, coming to quench the day’s work, toil and sweat? To delight in sweet reflection on the earnings, will and expense of this day lived for Life hereafter or for the claws of dirt’s turning. The eagle swept the river searching for that talon full and this delight was etched upon each mind and eye beholding. Not for caution or doubt found in darkness, nor for sadness of memories lost by the coming of silken nightshades but the power of a day lived worth remembering, in hope of tomorrow’s offer.

How Sweet the night when one loves not the darkness, but resides in the reflecting pond of gifts rendered by Light and Life.

Here

For reasons that were cast before I made my first decision or harbored my first thought. How then can man claim his own destiny when achieving, adopting or considering the road before him? All strength of sinew, mind or heart and voice were predetermined to be at my disposal. Certainly improving upon or mastering those talents and techniques available to create wealth, health, reward or expertise required my participation and may have been shaped by my level of commitment. But, all men were set to purpose by their predicament.

How then may I revel of self worth or glory? All is owed to someone, whether or not I accept acknowledgement of that origin. That is the beginning of choice, the acceptance of the Truth as guide and Gospel, the embarkation from darkness into the light or subsequent retreat into the shadows of my own casting. Denial and doubt, near twins, set the possibility for future path. I am not my own, not can I escape the bonds of this life and hereafter of my own volition. Only the choice that must be rendered will determine these outcomes, outcomes that include only those presented by the hand and mind that proffered my gifts.

So, to achieve the summit of my limitations or surpass them I must inquire as to the expectations of the Hand which made me. There is no path through my own imagination, intelligence or experience but through the understanding of my design. That requires an invitation and introduction to my designer. The defining question; Do you know the King? For it is meeting, accepting, acknowledging and obeying His expectations, rules and outcomes through which I will find my place in eternity. The only success worth remembering is did I hear, do and follow my maker’s direction, for no outcome, reward or mark shall be fulfillment of my tasking without having first been listened.

Am I here for I Am? Does the shepherd’s voice ring clarion above each and every call or draw? Do I know what the King wants of me through study, prayer and waiting upon His command before walking my own roads? Let me not simply look to the beginnings but to the outcomes, for His may never be ventured without His direction, intervention and supernatural authority/power. That is my choice to be here for His making or depart for my own temporary understanding. I choose to be Here, before the King in reward or failure for this road is never taken by those who have chosen otherwise. This is my success, this is my design, to be here for better or worse until death loses its grip upon me as I walk into His waiting Arms and Eternity with God.

Becoming

Selective hearing, blurry vision and the audacity to speak without being spoken to while documenting the facts of history compelling dispute of young argument. With massive exception to rules held firmly in retribution we glide to finish and beyond, thinking only of wind, updraft lift or drag. Sagging unharmoniously on the back of beast in burden, we eclipsed the fear of nightmare and passed the horizon of the impossible.

This is not someone else’s dream of paradise but the pursuit of spiritual realities. What is the definition of those things which may not be spoken because those in power fear that unknown acknowledgement of their failure. Judgment only hurts when you failed to heed its warning to obedience or choice. The calamity is the palsy of deranged thinking and world’s made steady only by the power of projection. The protection of the few is hardly reason to capture or detain the many. Left freedom have her fill and see who remains left in prisons of their own design and questing.

Leave chance to romance and spontaneity. Life seldom complies with those processes which lack candor or character. Certainly strange men are rewarded for youthful cleverness but as we age the Truth takes precedence in pursuit. What then is the reason for my adherence to reason and folly in protection of your heart over desired wanderings? What day does the sun reveal that has not been gauged and anticipated by the King? What demons are assuaged to forfeit their carnivorous intention? What clock replaces the absence of sovereign intent?

There is no glory beyond what has been delegated to those in service. My delight in rapture outweighs the best honed plans of my success. There is no greater reward then horseback behind his wrath. In tandem and courageous ambition I arise to find my name included in the rosters of men of valor, knowing fully that when the rubber tastes friction that I shall bail on the glossy printout. The touch of dove or kind whisper especially by those that have determined your worth is more that this man deserves.

However I have been given it all and for that there is no justified response but humility in Grace.

Enough

Restraining evil is full time job now. he Father has determined that it is time for the Great Dividing Line of Christ to separate humanity into those for God and those against. There no longer are any attempts at camouflage or common ground as it does not exist in this period of disambiguation. Those who harvest children and seek endless freedom from accountability have clearly determined their Right to own and direct the world. This situation will end in collapse and one side shall prevail. The Bible clearly states that the Wickedness of the Empire of Anti Christ will rise at least for the Seven year period of Tribulation.

However, we do not know the extent of the potential revival before the rise of the Prince that is to come. We must admit the environment is ripe as many if not a majority of people in the world appear to want sorcery, sin and satiation rather that the things of God. This situation may instantly be changed by the power of the Holy Spirit but at present people are indifferent to Christianity at best and at worst serving the enemy full time. Our eternal hope then calls US to reconcile this circumstance with God’s desire for all to come to the knowledge of the Truth. The only plausible explanation, not discounting those that I cannot yet see, is that God will spark Revival’s Flame that all those in the world who will accept Grace shall do so before the rise of Anti Christ.

The Empire must rise, as God’s Word says it will. Therefore, the outcome of that rise must be fully investigated to understand God’s objective for the coming period. The pain and suffering will be sufficient to transform hearts that those unwilling to make this choice voluntarily now, will in fact give their lives during that ferocious period of God’s Wrath in order to find Grace. Thus, knowing what is coming we may now begin to unpack the formation of Empire fully understanding that the enemy has known these days would be upon US at some point since as early as Daniel 2’s proclamation of the Empire’s in Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream.

How does an Empire rise in a long term planning function when it does not know the exact time of it’s arrival but knows that at some point it Will Definitely occur? It must take all the steps that it can to prepare for Empire without launching that Empire. Let US review the period from roughly 500BC from when this knowledge was revealed to the world until this time when they are clearly seeking its arrival/launch. New World Order, the term most readily utilized to describe this coming Empire is accurate but incomplete. Without the biblical understanding of the position and power of Anti Christ in this Empire or the fact that it is the continuing Empire of Rome we are left with incomplete understanding of its implications.

The last Five

Trying hard is on me. Surrender is acknowledging God’s presence within my heart. If I could have done, I simply would have. That is the importance of miracles and the impossible for mortal men. They are not signs of God’s Power that we may believe or kinder faith, but the realization that without God there are many things beyond our abilities, treasure and time.

They want me to self help myself into eternity. It cannot be done, that is why I refrain from writing books that rephrase or repackage the Bible into some of my own best ideas for men to improve themselves in to heaven. I care not how long you believe the history of man extends, yet I do recognize that throughout this history regardless of length, we as men will always try every possible iteration of self help before entering God’s throne room in contrition seeking His Help. Is this the insanity that Einstein coined?

God made the World and all that is in it, even the destroyer. Therefore He is the only one with the Power, Position and Understanding to make the Rules, Laws and guidelines for everything within it. Playing by His rules although voluntary because He loves us enough to give us that choice, only provides one outcome based upon a single choice. We get to Choose God or Not. Recovering from the separation (Sin) that distances us from God is only done in positive affirmation of this choice.

We cannot save ourselves, which goes in saying that we cannot make our own provision or invite ourselves to Heaven. Only God determines our acceptance or acceptability and that is based solely upon that aforementioned choice. If you choose wrong you will be separated from God forever as penalty for making the wrong Choice. Equally just as inclusion in heaven is not within your power beyond making that Correct Choice escaping the judgment and assignment to hell is equally beyond our authority, power and imagination.

God knew we would mess up before He created us and time. Therefore the solution, the choice was also created before the universe began, providing us the hope and context for the possibility of escape. That escape was given us by Jesus as a sacrifice of His Perfect Life lived that we may be set free from sin to make that Choice to join Him in Eternity. We can tell ourselves another version, another construct, building our own house of cards or constructing a graven image of God, but it by definition leads to the same end.

Now to the joy that comes with loving a God who loved us so much that He planned before time began to provide a way of Escape for all men. It is perhaps of greater amazement that He would punish His perfect Son to achieve that objective. That’s Right, God punished Jesus on the Cross for our Sins. That is the only way we are set free by that sacrificial payment of a Perfect Lamb of God given upon the altar to appease God’s Fury and end the War between Him and Man.

So, our job now includes the discerning clarity to silence or avoid all other explanations: lies depicting alternate routes to heaven. See we are not alone here, there are influences that specifically possess power and authority to deceive the saints, leading them to make that eternal choice with faulty information. I cannot save myself. I cannot adopt myself, nor forgive myself for my sins against God and His Laws. Christianity is the only God Help Program, all others are self attempts to overcome or rewrite the immoveable truth of God’s Word.

I have been foolish but thankfully this truth is absolute in my thinking. There is no coming back from a departure from God’s Wonderful salvation. So, although there is a measure of time left for us to make the right choice and even time for us to repent of having gone astray/backsliding, the end of the respite is upon us. It is time for all men to make the choice and then time for all men having chosen sides to get about the work of support or resistance to God’s Coming Kingdom. That’s right if you choose something other than God your only hope is to try and void His inevitable return. That means you are contrary to ushering in God’s Rule and Reign for Eternity in the Person of the King of Kings the Lord Jesus Christ the King.

I am sorry that you have chosen the enemy or made the fateful mistake of sitting upon the fence and ending up having Christ mke the Choice for you, but I will not be joining you in the Lake of Fire. I will not weep at your passing as you make the free will decision to depart from and be separated from God eternally. I will however love you as I would want to be loved and tell you the Gospel Truth of Eternity to Come that you may join me forever, but the Choice has always been yours alone to make. Choose Wisely because there is no coming back once God says “Pencil’s Down”.

Dissuaded

A dusty page of prophecy pulled over a tv screen, when all along discounting the Truth we should have seen. In freedom there is wonder and wander to and fro, never taking time to acknowledge the way we were meant to go. In distance there is complexity of ignorance and doubt, never admitting in our self worship what closeness is all about. You see I was designed to walk in clarity, revelation and the Truth but often followed folly and the perceptions of my youth.

Oh, how far I have sauntered away from God led by my Pride, knowing as I grow older how often I could have died, Protected in my ignorance as if it could ever be labeled bliss, what demonstration of the Loving could be greater found than this? And in my obfuscation, deliberation and certain self, I left the brilliant guidance of His Direction to gather dust upon the shelf. Inclusive administration, diverse in our intent clearly shows our foolishness represented as intent.

What is the price of return to frazzled thinking, linking all of our victimization to drugs, or sex or drinking? Am I guided by my sin the yearning deep within, not subject to accountability as my ancestor’s had clearly been? What is this newfound entitlement and surety of station that threatens our own families and the foundation of this nation? Where have we taken liberty, wisdom and understanding, that it cries to be released from our current understanding? Each time I try to justify the works I’ve done in dark I am embarking on the hopeless excuses the journeys of a lark.

This is not so rare, some exception from the course, nor is the loss of reason part of some contested debate or uncontested divorce. We knew where we were headed when we veered away from God the fact that He didn’t stop us seems all together odd. Two steps from the slope of which we are so fond that leads to stinking swamp or deadly silent pond. So measure clearly your departure your journey or your search as you stand there all alone on your ungodly worship perch. The church of imagination is an island made of sand a place that no one ventures when they seek to make a stand. This land of God’s resistance is built upon the Rock, An Aged piece of mountain that is measured by eternity not by any clock.

When you seek the World’s Summit the high place of our lives you’ll find it in humility where the truth of God revives.. In the War’s enbding you’ll see redemption that Christ sacrifice hsa bought not the glory and incandescence that your previous journey wrought. I bought the legislation, the lies and all the prose and wandered down the boulevard where everybody goes. But when I found the skinny path I knew it led to God and every other pathway became darkened, false and odd. So on this road to my salvation I hope that we shall meet replete in our hopefulness that victory has replaced defeat.

Limits

Can it be? That you and me, just were never meant to be. All that time, every dime spent to find a way that never should been attempted. What now, that relief is so hard felt. We’ve dealt with lost dreams and caverns too deep for lighting. But as time wanders and tries to convince us of its authority. We just sit and contemplate the wind.

All the frost and the fallow ground surrounds me. A heart of gold transformed in nuclear acceleration, speeding up and nearing stars to find its way through time. Calculus of two asteroids asunder, plunging deep into space then gravity allows. We still stand oddly in juxtaposition, having strewn our wake through the confines of solar left behind.

And those wonderful dreams, so powerful to children. The stuff of imagination and miracles this side of God that man are rife to acquiesce. What then lurks beyond palsy and weak reason, when we clearly see the Hand upon each thing He brought to light. And the Life that bore all daylight resting nightly, accepts the reality of Power beyond the will of man. Yet in the spotlight of man’s prideful journey, with examples set that show the mighty fallen, we still fail to accept the glory and the wisdom.

You pulled your hand away because it was given freely and without resistance the wound may not find life. To find love it must not be fought for or against but understood even in the shadow of imperfection. For all must fall and then choose to seek out glory. Not to serve pride but to serve that which is fully deserving of my fealty. And in that moment when our frailty becomes common, we let go of the scenery and script to live a life free of past infliction, where dreams and possibility reign as we seek the limit of God’s indwelling hope.
