Election to Serve – Delicately (ROI)

Thursday, October 22nd, 2015

The LORD’S wisdom considers that you need to be at peace, to allow you to project peace. That is a simple equation: in order for you to send something out, there must be an available supply of that thing, and, too, the supply must be under your control.

But, why should you, O woman, care about sending out peace? Why don’t we just be stingy, and receive that precious product for our self and our own, only? One good reason not to be so constricted in your service is this:

Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

(Luke 6:38)

Okay, let us evaluate that, as looking at it from a certain modern perspective.

Collateral Damage and the Heart of God (Core Reconfigured)

Monday, October 12th, 2015

The following Scripture contains a very serious indictment that the people of Israel placed upon themselves.

When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.

 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.

 (Matthew 27:24-25)

With that answer, the religious hierarchy of Israel walked away from its place of being the generation that would present the Kingdom of God, to man. They had no excuse for this failure; for, they were aware of the prophecy that indicated that Israel had been chosen for a ministry to the world.

kingdom of man (Productivity – Focused)

Thursday, October 1st, 2015

Sometimes, I hear my brothers and sisters of the kingdom of man, speaking of a reality in which we share our self with one another, freely and without restrictions. Among the references to which they are pointing is this one.

And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?

And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest.

And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

(Revelation 7:13-17)

I must admit that; that is an enticing reality to ponder. But; I do not have to share my self, in order to go there. In fact; in some matters, it is easier to achieve this state when one does not try to share ones self, or to place ones self in a position to be shared. Here, I am thinking about such wisdom as the following.
