My God is a Powerful Statement!


My God is a powerful statement, but its not God! Mankind does not

direct God’s steps, nor are our ways his ways.


We are not the potter and God the clay that we mold into an acceptable

god created by our thinking and standards. God’s personality is

revealed from heaven through his Son, if God so chooses!


Luke 10:22 Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been

delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the

Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the

Son desires to reveal him.”


Rom. 9:21 Or hasn’t the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump

to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor?


Isa55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says Yahweh.

The Value of Hard Work?


The value of hard work set a test stone in ones life! One cannot be a

fool or lazy and be a good employee, one cannot cheat or be

self-centered and work with others for long.


It requires goals, tests, improvements for the reward of self-respect;

each improvement brings greater character while exposing the lies of

free loaders like government. This is how our founding fathers made

America great and independent!.


Proverbs 29:17 Correct your son, and he will give you peace; yes, he will

bring delight to your soul


Proverbs 19:18 Discipline your son, for there is hope; don’t be a willing

party to his death.


Proverbs 10:5 He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during

the harvest is a son who causes shame.

Two Choices . . .

Two choices, finding a way to do the least we can working or learn how to improve every day at our work. One way builds moral character, the

other destroys it!


There is no job beneath us it just shows our real character. Stealing,

lying, blaming others start with our work habits. There are no cutting

corners our work proves if we are a giver or taker. There is only

wheat or weeds!


2 Thess. 3:10 For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: “If anyone will not work, neither let him eat.” 3:11 For we hear of some who walk among you in rebellion, who don’t work at all, but are busybodies. 3:12 Now those who are that way, we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.

Self-scruntiny Does Not Exist For People Who Expect Others to Take Care of Them


Self scrutiny does not come from people who expect others to take care of them. When people demand programs from government paid for by tax payers dollars self-scrutiny doesn’t exist!


What the rest of us end up with is a plagued woke society without

appreciation, a society who hates any criticism. Self-scrutiny is the

Devil they must destroy! The difference between a fool and wisdom is

as simple as self-scrutiny!


Psalms 92:6 A senseless man doesn’t know, neither does a fool understand

this:


Proverbs 12:15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he who is wise listens to counsel.


Proverbs 17:10 A rebuke enters deeper into one who has understanding than a hundred lashes into a fool.

Does Simple Truth's Deceive or Mysteries?


What deceived Eve? Was it the simple truth that Eve was deceived by, or a

mystery? Adam wasn’t deceived he just went along with the lie!


The Father of mysteries, who is also the Father of lies, understood human

weakness for great mysteries to deceive not just Eve, but the world.


Deception comes from pride, it’s pride that fertilizes the field of mystery.

Truth has no pride, why? because no one created it or owns it, but

God!


John 3:27 John answered, “A man can receive nothing, unless it has

been given him from heaven.


Rom. 11:6 And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace

is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.

Life is Complex When What we Really Want is a Simple Answer!


Life is complex when what we really want is a simple answer. We want a

starting point and end point and clear markers to guild us through

this maze called life.


That why the world is full of books trying to simplify life, which only

adds to the complexity of life. There is good and evil, light and

darkness and God is love with those markers we can keep our life

between the lines.


James. 1:16 Don’t be deceived, my beloved brothers. 1:17

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down

from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning

shadow.

Why Does The Bible Say We Humans Can't Direct Our Steps?


Why does the bible say we humans can’t direct our steps?

Well, If we like something we think everyone does, we judge from what we

like, gay people think everyone gay, drinkers think everyone like

drinking, drug addicts think everyone like some kind of drug, and the

matter get worse when we have a high aversion to something!


In fact, we’d have the whole world just like us, if we had God’s

power.


John 8:15 You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.


James 1:25 But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom, and

continues, not being a hearer who forgets, but a doer of the work,

this man will be blessed in what he does.

Why Are We So Involved In Reality?

Why are we so involved in reality? Because life teaches us reality in

the harsh ways. Life can be a cruel unloving unforgiving task-master.


When parents allow children to live in fantasy make believe world those

attributes are practice in adult life. It is reality that fixes

unreality messes, pays for, sacrifice for, and often dies for the

drug of unreality!


Heb.12:6 For whom the Lord loves, he chastens, and scourges every son whom he receives.”{Proverbs 3:11-12} 12:7 It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with children, for what son is there whom his father doesn’t discipline?

At What Age Do We Stop Making Mistakes?


Being wrong is human, its a life time history lesson! The pain is when

people pretend not to!


The myth society teaches; at some point we learn to stop making mistakes

through experience. Humility teaches truth, we don’t, there just

harder to admit because we should know better by our own

history lessons!


Eph. 4:2 with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one

another in love;


Col. 3:12 Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a

heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;


Proverbs 16:18 Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a

fall.

Truths That aren't so Self-evident!

There are many self-evident truths in life not all are beautiful like a

heavenly song, such as “there is no innocents in evil!” And, that humans will ignore both until their own lives are dramatically affected.


Things break, we imperfect human’s fix them, but few of us have foresight beyond that. What should be self-evident is why we and government repeat such foolish non-sense?


Jeremiah 10:23 in the Bible says, “O LORD, I know the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man who walks to direct his own steps”.


Jer. 17:5 Thus says Yahweh: Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart departs from Yahweh.

THERE IS NO WINNING WITH EVIL!

There is no winning with evil, don’t flatter yourself, evil doesn’t

care, there is no power in walking away from evil that doesn’t care

if you’re there in the first place!


We entirely own the mind games, evil doesn’t care, evil only want us

in its life if we benefit its evil. The mind games only tells evil

that we haven’t accepted the truth of evil.


1 John 1:5 This is the message which we have heard from him and

announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.


Gen 6:5 Yahweh saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil

continually.

WHAT IS A PROCLAMATION?


A proclamation is an act of proclaiming; the founding fathers proclaimed what God

has endowed all human’s with, not man, or government.


We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,

that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable

Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

 

They did not say government could attain to these unalienable rights for

us, rather these high ideals were the glue to hold us together

driving us to never give up on true godly freedom by how we respected and treat

each other in relationship to God!


Mark 12:31 The second is like this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’{Leviticus 19:18} There is no other commandment greater than these.”

One Does Not Need to be a Prophet, Why?


One does not need to be a prophet, why? If a person had no other book

but the bible they would know what all human government are

and what they do!


That is why the founding fathers did not trust government; all were

bible readers, the general population was also. The best they could do

was offer us laws to stop its evil nature.


The song of the fool is using corruption to make a new one!


1 Cor. 15:50 Now I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood can’t

inherit the Kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit

incorruption.


Rev 13:18 Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the

number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six

hundred sixty-six.

Evil Lies; That is Truth!


Evil lies that is the truth of evil. Politics justifies evil, in the name

of God, mercy, and compassion! There is nothing new under the Sun

when it comes to evil or politics.


When human’s are willingly naive thinking evil can rule; then watch time and again it destroy lives and country no one is innocent. Giving power to a thief everyone suffer for what they get away with!


John 10:10 The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that

they may have life, and may have it abundantly.


Isa. 59:7 Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent

blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; desolation and

destruction are in their paths.

The Hard Questions?

When we learn to ask the hard questions not of others but ourselves we

find we become less angry at those that have failed us. Good mental

health; psychology does just that.


But so does the bible, if its not taught too us like wonderful prosperous life now and in heaven later.


The scriptures teach us to cope with the many problems of life and gives

us a future hope of a new heavens and earth and the promise of grace

to get us there, which of course psychology doesn’t!


Matt,5:43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your

neighbor, and hate your enemy.{not in the Bible, but 5:44

But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good

to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and

persecute you,

Never Meant a Person Without an Addiction!


Addictions, something we despise in others, but I’ve never known a person

without one! Its just depends who’s buttering the bread on which

side?


We have an intricate unwritten rule book of accepted addictions and

those that aren’t, but Christ Jesus had none! When he stated sin no more that was under the Old Law he fulfilled. We can’t sin no more unless we’ve received Grace

the reason Christ came to save us from our sins!

 

1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the

truth is not in us.


2 Peter 3:18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior

Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.

Wouldn't it be Nice to Repair Our Thankfulness?


Wouldn’t it be nice to take thankfulness to a shop to replace missing parts of

when were not thankful. The truth is those always boasting in

thankfulness probably aren’t!


The cliche there’s so much to be thankful for is just another way to

reminded the thankless. Truth is thankfulness is realty a heart

condition God has to help us with. Today let us draw close to God

and he will draw close us because he is always thankful!


Col.3:15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you

were called in one body; and be thankful.


Ps. 28:7 Yahweh is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in

him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my

song I will thank him.

Idols are Wonderful Until They Stop Blessing us!


Idol’s are wonderful until they stop blessing us! Admiration is a human

emotion that we all express which often becomes an Idol.


Idol’s are a life time of disappointments misplaced affections entrusted

to variations of shadows, here today gone tomorrow. The evil of

seeking human glory while thinking God is the same!

 

James. 1:10 and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower

in the grass, he will pass away.


James.1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down

from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning

shadow.


1 John 5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

Believing the Devil is a Saint!


Evil is in control of our government the idea that its going to change

when its blackmailed, purchases and intimated every facets of

government from local to international trade is as naive believing

the Devil is a saint!


If its evil its the Devil the father of the lie, if its the government its evil and its lying; our eating fruit from a corrupt tree, won’t make it a good tree no matter how we wrap the fruit in pretty paper!


Matt. 7:15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. 7:16 By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? 7:17 Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.
