Kingdom Perspective.

In this Topsy Turvey world no wonder there is such confusion on what is right and what is wrong. Many times we are stuck in a legalistic argument wondering what is right and what is wrong. We convience ourselves that we have reason for our actions or for our situation but when the dust clears the situation still stands. We are indeed a pained nation. One that holds no regard for its founder and disrespect for its roots. We have fallen deeper into a Tornado of what we feel is right and wrong and forget that Morals are instituted by our concience if God does not intervine. Are we as Good as the Good in us? How far can we questions ourseleves if the only knowledge we have is ourselves. Can we question our own action if we in fact are biased with our own decisions? As well as biased on our line of questioning. Or do we conciously forget to question ourselves in places where we are weak?

So many times I have realized that strength is not found in strengthing the stronger parts of a building but by giving strength to the weaker part. As in our lives how strong can we be if we are willing only to look at the BRUTe strengths but fail to look at our failures or the place that we seriously ...lack knowledge in. This brings us to understand our humanity, our mortality as well as who indeed is Lord in our lives. It is dificult to look above our lives and events and feasts to see beyond all and realize truly where we are at. It can be humbling. very humbling. To know that you are indeed not in control.

I fail sometimes to realize just how little ability I have. Yet it does not change my desire to change it. In Christ I feel that this is Okay. At least I know of my fraility. But have I indeed looked at what GOD wants for me. So many times we go towards a goal and see God for the process but not for the Choice itself. Have I made God a second fiddle to my decisions?

In Speaking of this..I relate it to Going somewhere not knowing the destination and telling others where they need to be. This is why juding is so very wrong. Who do I have I can judge. When I myself cannot hold a flame but Christ's.. I know I am not good nor am I wise in myself. By knowing this I realize the importance of Worship, spending time with him learning his ways and reading his word. It is amazing how the Bible is the best selling book yet seems to be the least read. I think it has alot to do with the conviction to own it ...But not to be under the authority of it....So many times I believe as Christians we do the same thing? What Ministry other than the Lords ever can bring us into better relationship with him. Is our Kingdom perspective our own yet seeking God in the aftermath.

I get the sense that God does not want to bash us over the head with a stick to dicipline us like many might think. I believe that simply he asks us to seek him to eleviate the process of pain, and destruction in our own lives. He is our father yet how many times do we sit in his lap and speak to him. Kiss him on the cheek and talk tenderly to him? How many times do we spend time singing to him. Looking into his eyes and telling him indeed how much we love him as the small children that we are.

But much like this world has done with it's earthly fathers. We blame them for our circumstance. and forget that we are indeed accountable to only one. We personalize the situation making God the bad guy and essentially the very place to find freedom and clarity becomes a nofly zone. The Accountabilty of the Lord and his Authority that he has set here is ignored becasue we are far too happy doing things our own way. We forget the Kingdom perspective and we become more happy with what we want then want we want for others. We loose touch with ourselves then tell others we are seeking individualism and our own identity.

My Identity in the Lords Eyes is a Child of God. We place names and titles exspecting recognition when in fact we deserve none. We call ourselves Youth Ministers, Worship Leaders, Leaders of Our Households, and Leaders of a Church.
When in fact all we are doing is following THE LEADER (THE LORD JESUS)and his leadership. It is a Noble task he has called us to. Not a noble title. The Title of Father cannot be given to one who births a Child but one who fathers one. The title of Mother is one who Mothers, raises a child. a Minister is one who Ministers. A Worshiper is one who Worships. For the record. I am a Child of God. Who loves to worship him. But Who are you? Ask yourself that question and perhaps see the missing link even in your christianity. I like Pauls letter to the Churches because therein. In exposes the truth of Heart regardless or RACE, RELIGION, etc. He simply exposes the desire of the heart. He even exposes his own in Romans 11. But who are we accountable to. As "Leaders" that God has instituted us to be. If in fact we have no leadership. If we have no accountability and if that accountability is not Gods. From Whom's Leadership are we Following if there are only two things to Follow in this World. God or Satan.

Some might choose one or the other. The simple question is Why? The Other question is though you may have good intentions following a good moral or good set of instructions will not lead you in Gods path nor in a place or saftey. It will lead you to deception. believing that simply your ideals of Good are Good enough and more worthy of GODS? This is Idolitry. So what is Good. What is Bad? No wonder again like I stated in the first parapraph we so often Blur thouse lines. For in the Temporal it is our Favor yet in the Eternal is will be devistating. Since This Revelation. I pray that God will smack me with a stick across the hand and the face if need be if it will save me from eternal flames. Wouldn't you?

Simply Thinking of you? (Thanks)

I don't know what words to use and so few words there are I have
To show of the Love you gave and the love that you have.
To show the appreciation seems almost pointless being that I have no words to show
To the Love you gave and the love you have?

I can now look at my life so pained yet so real. So set and I feel
Like I can move mountains! I can walk miles on bare street. That I can meet the ground and walk across fire past indulgence and desire to sit at the saviors feet.

How my heart now beats so differently how I can now see what I could never see
How my head is stilled and sat in traquility at night as I think simply about you.
Such peace I have such strength I have. Simply thinking of you.

I no longer regret. I no longer forget who I used to be where I have come from and how I am free. I am free from the desire to set myself high. I am happy in my Lot. That this world too much forgets I cannot control the actors nor the plot.

Thank you if there are words that I can say. I realize my action show more than all I could say in a day. The things I do just further delay the love I have for you. I must set my heart on the one simple task of simply following and loving you (thats all that you ask?) Sometimes yet It seems like a hard task when I forget just to simply follow you?

Its not dinners, nor parties, no days in your honour but daily living for your truth and your light. That all the right and all the good I could have ever been is simply dimlit without Jesus inside me that has crushed all sin.

As the serpent now lies dead beneath my feet. The flesh is another to handle but to forget who put me here is to be a hunter without a mantel a song without a title. A death without a will. A Dare without a feat. That I might forget the reason why I live and breath. That I might foreget the reason why? I wish to live and never die and live in eternity.

Prayer Warriors

I have been thinking recently about an encounter with a older woman. She was around 5' tall short gray hair and large swinging necklace one that pendulumed back and forth as he spooke. Here skin was pink and her eyes I remember were baby blue like a young childs. Though her looks did not astonish though were searng for a woman nearing her late 80's her verility did. She was spunk, chipper assertive. She was in control, full of Joy and love and a stength about her I still cannot exactly explain with all the words in the world. Her name was Estelle. She was working as a volunteer at a Hospital. I remember this day strongly for it was the Day that I had lost all hope was afraid and anxious all at the same time.

In this her voice was comforting as a Prayer Warrior during my most needed of times. Truly a person sent by God to help me with sorrow, pain, worry and faith. It was time I will not forget. My wife was in the Hospital. She had tubes in her nose. She was shllowly breathing. I knew that this was a moment of great change but never did I know why. As My wife near dead from her situation Sat in a Hospital bed. I sat in a waiting room. Full of worry pain and despair. I did not know what to do. I knew the Lord but needed something.

I remember like it was yesterday. I brushed past the desk with a look of death in my eyes. I remember as I looked at myself in the reflection of the hospital windows and metal racks and plates positioned near the door. I heard "Whats the matter dear?" I stopped realizing it was a older woman in her late eighties with a kind voice and a soft heart. "You know..." she muttered as she fiddled with some paperwork at the desk. "I have been where you at...I understand."... I remember her look in her eyes and she grabbed both of my hands turned them palm up and uttered. "Lets Pray..."

I rememeber as we prayed that a joy filled me. I remember just as I held her hand this energy from the Lord of two people in agreement and in faith proclaiming the impossible. I began to feel light again. Weightless and indestructable. I felt the power of the Lord fill my Body and the despair left and was replaced with a Childlike faith, understanding and determination.

I cannot forget this. I spoke to my doctor recently who spoke about how prayer would help the pain I am in now. My pysical pain and was puzzled to understand that many people believe in prayer and know that prayer works. Some proclaim that prayer works even those without a solid faith in Jesus Christ as Lord. I would have to say I know prayers that were answered of mine when I did not even know the Lord but realizing the power ultimatly realized that the power was not in the prayer but in the name of whom the prayer was prayed in. I immediatly needed to accept..Who he was in my life and thereby learn to address him properly. Jesus Christ who is Lord and Savior. In the name of Jesus....I remember and without sounding like some religious Zelot. Which I am. I will cease here and ask some direct questions. To Both myself and whoever is reading this.

If Prayer Works...How come it is usually the last Resort?
If Prayer Works why do we doubt?
If Prayer Works why do we hesitate when people are in need?
And Finally. If Prayer Works How Come We Can Believe in Prayer and Not In The Lord in whom it is used to communicate with?

In my opinion and of course this is opinion I believe there should not be beat between a problem or circumstance of another that there should thereby follow this words... Dear Father in Heaven...In the Name of Jesus...I.

This world needs more Prayer Warriors. People willing to interceed for the ones who cannot or don't know how. There needs to be more teaching to show others how to approach the Lord and not to fear even if we do not know how. It amazes me that so many people believe in prayer Yet hold no Faith? Do they think AIR has answered? It pains me that people are willing to accept the prize but not give recognition to whom has answered them.

I am sorry but this pain roots deep. Secular Spirituality speaks of tranquility and seperating yourselve from the pain. I say accept it and pray about it for a lesson is to be learnt here. Solomon himself says that the Day of Death is far better than the Day of birth.

Ecclesiastes CHAPTER 7
1
A good name is better than fine perfume,
and the day of death better than the day of birth.
2 It is better to go to a house of mourning
than to go to a house of feasting,
for death is the destiny of every man;
the living should take this to heart.
3 Sorrow is better than laughter,
because a sad face is good for the heart.
4 The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning,
but the heart of fools is in the house of pleasure.
5 It is better to heed a wise man's rebuke
than to listen to the song of fools.
6 Like the crackling of thorns under the pot,
so is the laughter of fools.
This too is meaningless.

But Why. Because Death Teachs the Living what life is about.
Sorrow is better than laughter for Shallow laughter teaches noone. But Heartfelt pain teaches the heart. Like thorns that were used to heat things quickly but without a long lasting burn so will the laughter and the feasting be quick and without effect. But the pain and sorrow and love lost and day of death teaches us our existance and importnace of the Lord himself in our lives. This is a long lasting burn that many of us take to our graves.

Why not the burn of Prayer? Why accept Prayer yet reject the call of the Lord and his commands? It pains sometimes to realize how many times I have actually accepted prayer or even engaged in it without the TRUE heart of its effect and its realness in our lives to today. I know by experience that some prayers are answered very speedility and the quicking of it is not pleasing yet the result indeed is Beautiful before the Eyes of the Lord and even Man.

If we can so easily accept the call of prayer becasue it is what we want? Why not the commands and what he wants from us? Has our selfishness of this world become a disease for the chosen and the world alike?

EXODUS 20


And God spoke all these words:

2 "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
3 "You shall have no other gods before [1] me.
4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand {generations} of those who love me and keep my commandments.
7 "You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
8 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. 11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
12 "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
13 "You shall not murder.
14 "You shall not commit adultery.
15 "You shall not steal.
16 "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
17 "You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor."

John 13
34"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.

Romans 12
10Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.

Proverbs 3
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;

Malachi 3
10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it.

Romans 13
8Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law.

Ephesians 4
2Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.

1 John 3
23And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.

Luke 6
29If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic.

Matthew 5
44But I tell you: Love your enemies[1] and pray for those who persecute you,

Colossians 3
15Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

Colossians 3
16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.

Luke 10
27He answered: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'[1] ; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'[2] "

Mark 12
30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'[1]

Proverbs 24
17 Do not gloat when your enemy falls;
when he stumbles, do not let your heart rejoice,

Proverbs 4
23 Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life.

Proverbs 4
4 he taught me and said,
"Lay hold of my words with all your heart;
keep my commands and you will live.

There are so many more. But this BLog has not enough to fill them. I will be the first to admit that I myself cannot hold to all of these. If someone was to read them without the spirit of God. They would simply denounce them as rules and regualtions. However in essense they are how to live. Peacefully in harmony with others and in a way that is not compromising to the truth of the Word of God. In essense if you are going to take part in the precious communion of prayer or Worship. These things may not be complete in your life but allow the Lord to slowly shape them and the Miracle of prayer will come not as a extra for christianity or as a shot in a dark for an unbeliever but a faithful step in beliving and knowing the impossible is possible only through Jesus Christ who is Lord.

When we live in his word it over flows into out lives. Though imperfect we may be a stretch for pefection is Christ is possible. It is not a task or a race. It is an honor.

Let us Become Prayer Warriors with a Commanding Officer.

If you want to accept Jesus Christ into you heart or want to rededicate your Life to him pray out these words.

Father in Heaven.
I Know that I have sined and have fallen short of your Glory.
Father I accept Jesus Christ your Son who died and has risen into my life.
I ask Jesus that you would come into my heart. Change me form me and Shape me to be
A Reflection of you. Jesus forgive me of my sins and my enequities. Jesus sustain me
Call me your own. I believe in you, trust you and accept you as Lord, and Saviour of my Life. In the name of your Precious Son Jesus I hand over my Life to you. I ask Lord nothing but your precense and authority of My Life.
Satan I ask you take your hands from me. I want no part of your Lies. Your Sin. Or your World. I proclaim now in the Name of Jesus Christ who Died and set me FREE that I am FREE. FREE from your Chains, Free from your Bondage. I proclaim in the Name of the Jesus. The Lord of Lords The King of Kings that I am now a Son of The Most High God. Jesus Come into My Life.

Amen.

Our Father in Heaven is amazing. He will set us down to write something or preach something or teach something that is stirring our hearts and ultimately we find who we have written it for is ourselves Also. He does indeed work in mysterious ways.

Let us be Prayer Warriors not in Just word but in deed and action.

Ephesians 6
18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

The Depth of the Deepest and Darkest Ocean

The depth of the deepest ocean is the heart. Plainly said it is a place that when we dig we find things we might never have found if we have not got down on our knees and bared our soul before the Lord. How often we tend to forget that the heart is decieving above all things. It has become so commonplace in our speech as christians we forget that it is a daily fact of life.

We can dive but even we can't dive the deepest of the ocean that is our heart without the help of the Lord. In this place destruction lies. The rebellion, the anger, pain. Far too many things to count and as if trying to accomidiate each with an excuse as the heart tries to do we must realize that our heart stops and starts with the will of God.

If anything this journal is a fact that I indeed know and understand what God has asked and what he is doing in my life. In this it is also the very thing to convict me. It is proof I know what to do and how to act and what to say and how to say it. How to love and how to love it. But the will and the direction and the action is in the heart. Which varily does what the mouth or even what the keys of the keyboard types for the words of the mouth are but a ill impression of the heart.

Sickly and barely pressing on the surface of the heart are the words for the action and the revelation only comes when we dive past our preference our comforts and where we feel safe.

In Authroity and in Leadership many things I have learnt but still things I have hidden deep in my heart. The only thing that should be left there is the law of God and nothing else should have place there. I realize sometimes in my deepest of darkest times as I write this journal primarily for myself that it must go beyond the page or beyond the screen. I pray that an impression of these entries will reside far further than just the surface of heart. That I will live to fullfill all that has been said or revealed. Even if God could be fooled; which would never happen! I have written it down exspelled by my own heart. Through the voice of language. The gift the Lord has given me to place words on a page to hear his voice. The gift of the heart and the brian he gave me so that I may have will. I must indeed surrender them both which should belong souly to him.

I am afraid the desire to be has become a pain one that I wish to end but I know that as far as I have come that I must run the race. I have no place to return to. I have no place to call home but what the Lord has given me. I feel that many times I should stop running but as I do I begin to sink back into what it was like before christ. Many do not realize where they have come from till they have gone to another place and I do not want to return back to a place of selfishness again.

I will agree than Humanism is far easier. It holds an excuse for every action and every reaction but it holds no answer. The Lord has given me answers to these and far more than I wanted answers for. he has given and showed me a devine love that cannot be equaled. He has lifted the black cloud and shown through adversity a treasure to be held and shared.

I know there is no ill fate for those in Christ and I know that what I done and am to do will far not be enough. It is not my revelation. My words or speech that will drive this force. It will not be my understandings or my beliefs. It will be the soul power, will and plan of God's. I ask daily that all I believe and understand would come more fully in line with the lords and continue to do so.

I write this in confession that it has not lined up many times. I have faulterd and fallen to place where I felt I had no place to climb back to. I felt pained to look back into the face of the Lord. I set that lie aside and realized that All the Lord wants is obedience unto him. In all things.

Becoming a daily action...Not simply a reaction when things don't go right. In this deepest of Darkest of Oceans I find that my actions are led by this. As a Christian this should not be. I want the Lord to break this more and more. I know to fully come into Worship him desire is not simply enough. Obedience is far more needed. Obedience to hear the Lord above the call of the heart.

Have I set the Bar Far too high. Truth is. I have not set the bar. It is not a matter of accomplishment I am loking for. It is not even a level to be reached I am looking for. But I want the love in my heart to indeed show how much I Love the Lord for what he done for me and to me. I realize that that is going to be in the most difficult of my issues of life and not in my simplest. A fool would say that he is looking forward to it. So a fool I must be. Call me a fool.

Is Authority a Priority?

LIFE
In Life we question our situations and circustances many times we even loose touch with what or who we are to be. How many times do we change our decisions and compromise our beiefs in order to live in harmony only to live later in tragedy? Why do we do these things? A question I had to ask myself. I needed an answer and it seems to have once again come under the leadership and authroity of Jesus Christ to guide, direct and teach me in my Spiritual Authority class I enrolled in today.

REFLECTION ON AUTHORITY
While reading a book by Watchman Nee called Spirital Authority Nee states "To serve God we are not called to choose self-denial or sacrafice, rather we are called to fullfill God's pupose. The basic principle is not to choose the cross but to obey God's will. Should the principle on which we work and serve include rebellion, then Satan will obtain and enjoy glory even through our sacrafices." pg.51 Upon reading this you kinda get hit in the head. As if being hit by a stick made of solid oak. It is far easier to sacrafice (meditation,budhism,Hinduism,Fasting) than to follow the will of God. This primarily being the very thing that seperates Those who love Christ and those who have become acustomed to their own personal God that fits their needs. Who is not God has no Authority or power over your destiny or your soul. (Mat:10:28) Authority can only be given or deligated by One..God Himself. Christ Jesus in essence though our belief or lifestyle may seem to be reflecting a god figure type. It is not the sacrafice nor the Good deed or Good Work but simply the difference of if it is a "God thing or a Good Thing" Not all Good Things are God Things. Acting Good can be easy sometimes if indeed we are Moral people. However the true test is of when God comes in a way we do not exspect will we act or question that Authority? What if he comes in a way where there is no Moral implications; but in a way that is completly against our preference. Will we obey or reject God?

Marriage & Relationships
I do indeed love this topic. Perhaps because of the love I have for the Marriage relationship that embodies the truth and the gospel of Christ. The very perfect representation of Gods relationship to his people and to his church (whom are his people chosen and set apart (saints) given by God (Authority) to mankind. Indeed a beautiful thing. I fret that I made many mistakes in this area. However the great thing about this is that you can look back and see where you went wrong and kick yourself for not reading the manual first (Word of God) before trying to take part in such a intracate and beautiful thing as the Marriage convenant.

Indeed many people have themselves massacared this Holy relationship. They live lives with another hoping to find purpose living in the relationship soley ordained by God. The reasoning for the Church and a minister in the involved ceramony. I mean not to be harsh but the Lord says that the act is Adultry. Harsh yet truth. I would desire for this not to be true as well and many times of my life but now I see why. We must not go against the Lords plan. Not becasue of any other reason that he is Lord and knows what will be better for us. Like a father to his child our Supreme father in heaven is the only one whom can give us authority over our lives or our relationships. Essentially without him we become a slave to another master. That master is not kind nor is he understanding, nor is he loving. He is a deciever that means to destory, set-apart and ultimatly eliminate the sacred God given relationship of Man and woman, Husband and Wife. This conversly hard to see with what is now regarding as normal living together without being married. There is no dating in the scriptures.

Relationships have taken a turn into a bad place many people would rather have intimated relationships than to establish a relationship of friendship first. Many people feel the need to administrate their own authroity in their love relationship we take the handles and feel that we are destined for paradise. However the only one who can lead us to paradise is our Father. If we take he reigns essentially it is a crap shoot. Statistics and what is happening to the marriage covenant.

It does indeed Boggle the mind to look at the statistics behind divorce in America today. Indeed many people have lost touch with Christ (The Authroity that Made Marriage and Love Sacred, Loving and Unconditional). Christians as well have replaced (as Titled) the priority of Authrity of Christ on the second ring called it a doctrinal truth and left in the the to do list when in fact obedience the requirement that frees us and ultimately leads us to a Healthy family, CHurch etc. Examples go as far as Christians leaving a church to go to another out a preferance without seeking god or blessing of the authority of the pastor (The Shepard who leads under Gods Authroity delgated to him.)

It it all Roses?
Naw. But essentially through the set way that God has asked us to live our lives with Him first and everything else after we find ourselves freer and in joy. Not essentially happinees which is temporal and relies on situation. But a Joy knowing that God is in control and everything is in his power, his will and his control. Oh Did I say that. I felt it deserved repeated mention. :)

It does create anguish to know that I myself have at one time and even now and then become this wedge against leadership of doing as I want. I still do. I pray the lord will break that. Forgeting that God's plan and ordained authority will be the only thing that will be left to prevail in my life. I will admit I try going the other way. I try fighting against it not becasue I am against it but becasue of the authority of God in my life is Becoming very clearly to be the only authority left in my life. We must fight our heart which is decieving above all things. So many times we look to our resources people around us and friends and forget who is actually running the Show. Who places a man in a position of leadership? God himself is the only authority who can give authroity. Both in my life and in every human being on earth.

A GOOD THING OR A GOD THING? --- FIGHTING FOR THE ENEMY OR THE MIGHTY KING?
It is frightening to realize that Watchman is pointing out that in all of our endeavors if they are not in the will of christ. The enemy the devi the big bad meany. The destroyer, the accuser, the liar will prevail and be given glory. WOW! Even in good deeds. Even in the best we can be and the best that we feel we can give if it is not the desire of the Lords it is against our Saviour's Authority and we begin fighting for the wrong team. Realizing how very important the Authority of God is in my Life I am realizing I have no choice but to follow. How many times can we say we do that? Do we attend services regulary, Do we read our Word? Do we speak the good news to those in the world? Do we live in the will and in the LAW of the Father? We are here for a purpose. People continually have looked for that purpose. Is there not a purpose? Is it not there? Is it FAntasy? Or is it that the pupose that we desire perhaps is not that of the Lords and we cannot realize the End for we have not accepted the Beginning? (I am the Beginning and the end) When Making important decision in your home or employment, marriage or relationships. I believe there is no thing too small to ask God for direction on. What could be infinte for God represents the most Finite to the most Astronomical. yes Finite that which you would think would not change your life the Lord knows the path of very little as to the great turn in the road and the small creeks the vere into the deepest and darkest of Jungles. Only the Lord knows the way not to enter as well as the way out.

FAKE OR FOLLOWER?
The Authroity brings up the importance of Relationship over Denomination. Understanding over Administration. Focus over Revelation. There is a balance that the Father has set that we should follow that we would not be tossed to and frow and that our faith would be the result of someone who stood steadfast in the Lord. No moving not budging becasue we know that we are in our fathers will.

The Revelation of the Authority of Christ decides wither we attend church in the morning or we sleep in. Wither or not we pay our tithes or spend it on the movies. It decideds wither we obey or disobey. It makes the differnce of Christian complacany or History makers walking in his name. Wither we read our Bibles. Open our homes to others. OPen our hearts. Remain and continue to live transparent lives. It makes the difference of relationship or pharasitical religion at which jesus himself despised. If we walk in light but not his it will not make a differce in the end. The harsh truth is that our Lord is jealous, loving and exact. He is not vague as this world is. He is not tossed to and frow by the wind. He is the wind.

This world has desires for drama for revolt, for revolution for instruction, direction revelation and truth. However the farthest many of them will go will be a phrase or a good deed. However when it comes to following the will of God. What is it they ulitimatly choose?

When we hear the Lord do we move or do we Run? I have run.; (away) that is. I have made this mistake. I have forgotten the authrity of God in my life even as a christian. I repent now for not relaizing that though somethings may be harsh. Difficult to handle. Difficult to swallow. It is important to know that truth is not administered by anyone but the one who is truth and is Jesus christ himself. There is no Alternative to truth but a lie.

BUSY!!! FOR GOD OR CHURCH, PRAYER OR READING?
Im too busy. I don't have the time. I can't make It. I really wish I could.
I have other plans. The day you fell to your knees on the day you needed him and did not know him. Did he not come and rescue you? That which this world is seeking is something that otherwise would be unessasary if they would only believe and understand that JESUS CHRIST indeed is lord and lord of their lives. Read and do what he requires and see that not that you are not given your hearts desire.

For What purpose are you here? Where did you come from? At point have you actually made a choice that you were sure was not under the almight hand of the Lord. We think we have so much control. It shocks me to understand that even Atheist cry ou OHH LORD! when they are in trouble. What is it that you Cry out!...I have cried out many times when in need. But now I simply Cry out everyday.

In Realizing Gods Authority we understand that it is not the preference or the feeling that takes precidence or emotions or desires but God's alone. This makes it very difficult for servants of the lord to explain to people in a rational why they do the things they do.

When we do something out of a sense of duty, it is easy to explain the reasons for our actions to others. But when we do something out of obedience to the Lord, there can be no other explanation-just obedience. That is why a saint can be so easily ridiculed and misunderstood. Oswald Chambers - Utmost for his Highest FEB 28

When all fades what is left. What task have you done that will last forever? What love have you brought that was genuine. What heart do you have? Do you know more than the CREATOR? Are we to say ...ANYTHING....?

He is indeed Lord? But What do we do to show that? What do we do?
My Friends this is as as REAL as it gets.
