God will either embrace your soul in peace or perish you to the Devil’s Den of Gehenna?

Do not rely on your strength in following the desires of your heart. Do not delay turning back to the LORD, do not put it off day after day. For suddenly His Wrath will come forth; at the time of vengeance, you will perish. Sirach 5:2, 7

Anyone who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his reward. Mark 5:41

Sirach 5:1-8, Psalm 1 & Mark 9:41-50

God is asking us to rely not on our own strength in following the desires of the heart but the strength that comes forth from the Truth in God’s Word illuminating the beauty of faith allowing grace to pour forth from our fervent prayer instituting His Love by the charity in proclamation as much in speaking as action to accomplish the Power of Peace. Ultimately, His Wrath will snub your last breath meeting Him face-to-face laying every instance of your life in front of you both. God gives us freedom here and now in heaven on earth by the surrender you give God now in communion with the desires of your heart for His Purpose speaking to Him the love of liberty freeing your soul in Christ’s confession of Truth in His Salvation.

Your heart’s desire must be that of Christ’s desire to clean the sin of yearnings past from a heart of self for in His Judgment He will either embrace your soul in absolute peace or perish you to the Devil’s Den of “Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire.” God brought to the world His Son as One to teach us that it is “better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into Gehenna, where ‘their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.’” Mark 9:43c I have learned that sin cannot be quenched by the appetite of overindulgence but by the water of God’s Only Son clean and refreshing the soul to accomplish works of compassion, courage and charity. I find this daily in my study in every second of every day talking with God praying for courage to live His life of charity living compassion as I travel for Him and not myself.

A child recently shared their prayers of conversation with God telling me he prays for me as I pray for him. God tells me the child is compassionate with mounting courage wanting charity as actions proof serving Christ’s cool water to those who are thirsty, feeding the hungry when tears of starvation rain, clothing the homeless who are naked from sin’s sanity, visiting the sick as you teach the Salvation of Christ’s love. “Amen, I say to you, (you) will surely not lose (your) reward,” my Brother in Christ- my little Child of God. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray we rely not on our desires of the heart dealying not our love of You in Your Word giving water who thirst for You LORD. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has our constant prayers. Day seven of a novena prayers for Roxy. Day six of a novena of prayers for Sal, Melina and Page. Novena prayers in day six for Sue’s healing LORD.

His flames might come forth forgetting to pray- Sirach 5:1-8

Find not the wealth in reliance
Of God’s love your defiance
Saying not I have power of guidance
By the money my heart’s desire compliance

Do not say “who can prevail against me?”
Never to be subdued by your deeds
God will exact punishment to see
He is the One Who eternally feeds

Beware of saying I have sinned but nothing did occur
Biding His Time the Most High has observed
Be not overconfident in forgiveness by your slurs
Sin-upon-sin adding to a life filled with blurs

God’s anger and His mercy are one in the same
Anger comes from sinning unless you abstain
From sin for mercy to gain eternal life in His Name
Alighting His Wrath comes from sin’s wicked game

Your conversion should not delay
Do not put it off day-after-day
His flames might come forth forgetting to pray
Deceitful wealth can’t help His Wrath you will pay

WISDOM: Her laws are trustworthy secrets revealed.

Those who love her love life; those who seek her out win the LORD’s favor. Those who hold her fast will attain glory, and they shall abide in the blessing of the LORD. Those who serve her serve the Holy One; those who love her the LORD loves. Sirach 4: 12-14

John said to Him, “Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in Your Name, and we tried to prevent him because he does not follow us.” Jesus replied, “Do not prevent him. There is no one who performs a mighty deed in My Name who can at the same time speak ill of Me. For whoever is not against us is for us.” Mark 9:38-40

Sirach 4:11-19, Psalm 119 & Mark 9:38-40

Wisdom seems like a far reach for some but can only be earned over time indulged in study submitted to every test. I remember as a child my mother watching me as we watched television one night pointing out the beauty by which God had given me in the little quirks if you will of moving toes or brandished birth moles of beauty sharing wisdom with me as we talked about life, lessons and love producing wisdom that carries throughout all my years. I am more appreciative of it now than I ever was by what both my parents instilled in me as well as being conscious of what their bloodline handed down to me from centuries past.

Here, we find her, wisdom, the love of God’s favor holding fast to the Glory of Truth abiding in His Blessing serving the Holy One with love. I miss this with my own children as they grow into their years separated by mistakes of sin’s past praying like all parents for the health, harmony and help your own bloodline represents and needs will be guided by Christ’s love of faith, hope and love of charity performing mighty deeds by His Precious Redemptive Name of Truth. My prayer is constant for all of my family but especially of these, my children, that we may grow into our years gaining the wisdom of age by God’s Glory of Truth. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to seek wisdom by living in Your Truth. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has our constant prayers. Day six of a novena prayers for Roxy.

WISDOM: Her laws are trustworthy secrets revealed- Sirach 4:11-19

Life comes from the breath of Truth
Wisdom her name obvious and true
Admonishing those who learn her right
Talking of her by day opening her words at night

The love of life seeks her true color’s need
The pinks and blues of highs and lows greed
Knowing her love finds God’s favor seed
Willing to fight but never to concede

Holding fast to her glory by the rights of He
Embraced by the LORD blessings for free
Serving wisdom naturally serves the LORD degree
Her inmost chamber inheriting the right to see

A stranger walked into the wisdom’s test
The assessment of life given at its best
Fear rolled into dread seen by an ugly fest
Tried in discipline embraced happiness crest

Her laws are trustworthy secrets revealed
Treasures of truth gained knowledge concealed
Failing her will have her abandon lest you squeal
Into the hands of despoilers will be your eternal meal

The trials of life are set before you to gain wisdom void of worry.

My child, when you come to serve the LORD, prepare yourself for trials. Be sincere of heart and steadfast, and do not be impetuous in time of adversity. Cling to Him, do not leave Him, that you may prosper in your last days. Accept whatever happens to you; in periods of humiliation be patient. Sirach 2:1-4

Then He sat down, called the Twelve, and said to them, “If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the servant of all.” Taking a child He placed it in their midst, and putting His arms around it He said to them, “Whoever receives one child such as this in My Name, receives Me; and whoever receives Me, receives not Me but the One Who sent Me.” Mark 9:35-37

Sirach 2:1-11, Psalm 37 & Mark 9:30-37

The trials of life are set before you to gain wisdom void of worry seeking not sin but Salvation from the Truth lasting in havoc by the Heaven we look up to living in peace by God’s Purpose. Here, we must learn to “be sincere of heart and steadfast undisturbed in time of adversity” clinging to God through His Word, His established prayers and His Spirit-led proclamation of His Everlasting Truth. There will be times that humiliation will come from outside forces as well as inner decisions that cause you great shame where it may seem God has left your side but He is there even then when bad decisions cause embarrassing positions where God seemingly lifts your pants after being dropped in public. Be patient and productive for Christ’s Charity and the Will of God will overshadow the desperation seen in disgrace.

We have been pushed to be first by the forces of secular living not embracing the Word of God but the desires of a heart filled with competition not grace enjoying excess not fate. Jesus points out the peace of a child asking for enlightenment by a growing brain living with such humility allowing the beauty of Truth instilling not the competitiveness of being first but the charity of being last lifting the joy felt by helping not hurting loving not languished in a sincere heart granted by God’s grace. Receive them with Christ’s Arms of Salvation and see the modesty, meekness and mastery of Truth. I felt this pull from God to live as a teacher of His Children watching in awe as the forces of Truth allow each to grow and sustain a heart craving faith, hope and love of Truth. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray we trust You LORD in trials seeking not to be first but last for those in need. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has our constant prayers. Day five of novena prayers for Roxy. Day four of a novena of prayers for Sal, Melina and Page. Novena prayers day four for Sue’s healing LORD.

Protection from evil before it’s too late- Sirach 2:1-11

Justice must serve the LORD in fear
Trials may happen along your years
Steadfast of heart as you seer
The Word of Understanding always near

Adversity will not disturb your mind
A heart and soul of love we will find
Clinging to God with patience in kind
Forsaking Him not lest you go blind

Ways of wisdom will fill your heart
What befalls you a blessing to start
Misfortune crushed by love’s part
Patient in humiliation God as your mark

Fear of the LORD grants His mercy
Lest you fall in disgrace as you curtsy
Love Him with hearts enlightened
Generations studied as love heightens

None has ever been disappointed by His fate
None to rebuff as we learn His Word to relate
Merciful compassion will be our eternal date
Forgiving sins saved by Truth we seek to create

Protection from evil before it’s too late

Grow away from God’s Truth grow away from wisdom granted only by God.

All wisdom is from the LORD and remains with Him forever. Sirach 1:1

When He entered the house, His Disciples asked Him in private, “Why could we not drive it out?” He said to them, “This kind can only come out through prayer.” Mark 9:28-29

Sirach 1:1-10, Psalm 93 & Mark 9:14-29

Once upon a time there was a boy who thought everything he learned gave him the needs to be everything he could accomplish until one day it dawned on him God was the reason for everything and therefore he stood in the midst of wisdom not on his own accord but that of the Truth granted by the Author of Life. The Law of God is Divine lasting not on the directions, decisions and destiny’s of mankind’s thoughts or desires but that of the Omnipotence of God’s Everlasting ability to resurrect your soul to serve with wisdom granted only by He Who Created all.

This wisdom was granted to Christ for He was the visible opportunity to see God face-to-face depending on the Father as a child craving the growth of his body, mind and soul not for His own purpose but that of God’s wisdom to forgive sin. Those who grow away from God’s Truth grow away from wisdom granted only by God to becoming learnt on their own accord void of God’s presence. The unclean Spirit of the boy would only come out by trusting God can do all things and this is accomplished by fervent prayer, fasting and complete reliance on God’s Power in the Name Christ Jesus. We must learn to trust by training our desires to tackle everything in His Precious Name. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to search for wisdom by the Trust we place in our practice, prayer and proclamation. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has prayers for a clean scan today LORD- heal my friend in Your Son’s Name. Day four of novena prayers for Roxy. Day three of a novena of prayers for Sal, Melina and Page.

Ephesians 6:17-20

Wisdom works poured upon the known- Sirach 1:1-10

Wisdom is like poetry
Coming from the LORD directly
In Him it remains forever
Divine Purpose not an endeavor

It comes before time was made
The seashore’s sands and drops of rain
Not numbered by mortals in vain
Only Truth in God where they are ordain

The depths of heavens or of the abyss
Not a man can touch them swimming amiss
Explored by all in wisdom’s beginnings list
Understanding prudence eternity’s gift

Not concealed or revealed in her ways
Only the Father the Most High can say
Truly awe-inspiring never counting the days
Seated upon a throne His Dominion to obey

A Holy Spirit created deservedly called LORD
Wisdom works poured upon the known
Only His Works can give you understanding
Lavished upon His friends according to His bounty

Fear of the LORD forming the gifts of the Spirit as God’s Knight of Charity’s use.

To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit. To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom; to another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit; to another mighty deeds; to another prophecy; to another discernment of spirits; to another varieties of tongues; to another interpretation of tongues. First Corinthians 12:7-10

When He had said this, He breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.” John 20:22-23

Acts 2:1-11, Psalm 103, First Corinthians 12:3-13 & John 20:19-23

The Church across the globe celebrates Pentecost Sunday 50 days after Resurrection Sunday inundating those who believe with the gifts of the spirit that include seven graces from God if you will of God’s sanctification for His Son to live within us the seven gifts of counsel, courage, knowledge, piety, understanding, wisdom and fear of the LORD forming God’s Knight of Charity’s use. I will live this knighthood by practice, prayer and preaching of God’s Word helping those to sharpen the swords of Salvation’s Truth donning the capes of glistening fortitude aligning with His Will living not in pity but piety for Christ’s Sake. The practice of true reverence lost seemingly long ago of fasting and praying from our knees will continue to be lost while the aching of humanity’s soul continues pushing Christ aside for self-indulgence.

We sometimes have a hard time understanding what gift the Spirit has given us as we wonder from one thing to another until it hits us over the head like a ton of bricks on a sunny day. You’ll know it is given to you by God when it makes a difference to someone or many a person in such a way that you feel His presence and joy allowing first fruits to be displayed wonderfully in a complete surrender to His Purpose. Here, in this moment I believe it is imperative to Consecrate and Sanctify your life to living for Him and Him alone forgoing statements of “what will you give me God” to utterings of “what can I do for you God” seeking only faith in His Salvation exuding prayers of forgiveness sharing His Word by more than just speaking but action, accountability and acceptance submerged in dialogue annulled of anger, aggression and avoidance.

We make God the action we live in our study not ashamed of the Good Book taking it with you in thoughts from practice placing your hands across it during the day for inspiration, comfort and peace. This action leads to living accountable for God consecrating everything we live for in the Name of Jesus Christ. It’s about you and God not others thoughts or opinions. It is your relationship of surrender and obedience not to your boss, childhood friends or the car you drive by the job you lust but the love of faith, hope and love being accountable to grace. The acceptance of this surrender rids your life of self-willed interests or judgmental opinions of disapproving beliefs allowing God’s Son of Salvation to live in the Father’s Divine Will leaving judgment where life begins and ends in Divinity’s Hand. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to live the Spirit by the fruits we sweat for humanity’s love of Truth. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. Day three of novena prayers for Roxy. Day two of a novena of prayers for Sal, Melina and Page. Novena prayers day two for Sue’s healing LORD. LORD from Psalm 135:15-18 I chant- “The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of human hands. They have mouths but do not speak; they have eyes but do not see; They have ears but do not hear; nor is there breath in their mouths. Their makers will become like them, and anyone who trusts in them.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

The doors were locked the Upper Room complete
The Disciples gatherd with Mother Mary at their feet
Sacred and huddled shaking for fear the Jews would treat
The Disciples with disdain a death they would repeat

Peace came over them as the Christ stood in the midst
His peace given showing them His hands He couldn’t resist
The side Thomas would stick his hand in at the fist
Rejoicing as God granted them the soon Spirit’s twist

He again blessed them peace will always be True
The Father has sent the Christ now I send you
Breathing on them the fire of His love Spirit of Truth
Saying, “Receive the Holy Spirit” fruits you will do

Granting confession for humanity to release
The sins I shouldered not judged by thee
Forgive them they are forgiven as I agree
Retain them they are retained by Grace you appease

By Christ we love to please

Embrace all with Jesus charity judging not the sinner but sharing the Salvation of sin.

Let it be known to you that this Salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen. With complete assurance and without hindrance he proclaimed the Kingdom of God and taught about the LORD Jesus Christ. Acts 28:28, 31

There are also many other things that Jesus did, but if these were to be described individually, I do not think the whole world would contain the books that would be written. John 21:25

Acts 28:16-31, Psalm 11 & John 21:20-25

Our study of the Book of Acts comes to subtle ending with Paul explaining the Prophets of Old description of Salvation was fulfilled by the LORD Jesus Christ over and over again convincing some but confusing others as even Paul fulfills the Prophesy of Isaiah from chapter 6:6-9 describing with such Spirit-led accuracy and Authority the Truth of Salvation God had brought to the world as described by He amongst the bearers of witness from the beginning of time.

“Some were convinced by what he had said, while others did not believe. Without reaching any agreement among themselves they began to leave; then Paul made one final statement. “Well did the Holy Spirit speak to your ancestors through the prophet Isaiah, saying: ‘Go to this people and say: You shall indeed hear but not understand. You shall indeed look but never see. Gross is the heart of this people; they will not hear with their ears; they have closed their eyes, so they may not see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and be converted, and I heal them.’” Acts 28:24-27

Paul has a lot of convincing to do establishing the First Church amongst the gentiles would be as challenging as the Jews laying the Divine Foundation for Christ’s Resurrection to now as described by Christ where “the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against It.” We will prevail by the Promise established by God for he who believes in the Son of Salvation. We will speak and some will not hear while even when the do listen the will not understand keeping us focused on prayer and surrender without judgment loving all as Commanded by Jesus Himself for the Works of Christ could never fill all “that would be written.”

When I think about prayer and surrender to a Way of Christ, I think of serving the less to see more engaging pity by His Purpose noticing not sin but Salvation’s grace all should feel by the love of Christ’s Charity we lovingly seal in our hearts and souls by obedience to Deliverance by God’s Destiny for all mankind imprisoned but free radical diseased. I find Jesus more in the eyes of the homeless, hungry and hurt as much as I find His beaming Spirit from the eyes of the imprisoned held behind the gates of mistakes in society’s fulfillment of God’s Decrees. My poem today reflects the love of Christ we bring to the prisoners in South Florida’s Kairos Prison Ministry from our monthly reunion we experienced last night.

Please join me in praying for a 9-year-old little girl to know her daddy’s heart of love and protection as well as his own Walk in the LORD’s love these next nine days. Please also join me in praying for a man in blue whose description of the tears expressed last night he felt when given his first Bible grasping Freedom in the walls sentenced by sin. Behind the walls of punishment to the darkness of living on the streets of God He asks us to embrace all with His charity judging not the sinner but sharing the Salvation of sin. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to share as we dare for You LORD for the witness of Your Son following Paul to the hearts of the lost. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. Day two of novena prayers for Roxy. We begin a novena of prayers for Sal, Melina and Page.

Love of Christ recreated just like Peter in his confessed three times of love.

When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these?”* He said to him, “Yes, LORD, you know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs.” John 21:15

Acts 25:13-21, Psalm 103 & John 21:15-19

Jesus allows Peter to admit his love for Jesus not once, not twice but three times to set the record straight for denying Jesus three times after His arrest. Many Biblical Scholars agree that here in John and Matthew is when Jesus gave Peter authority over the whole flock in commissioning the Church and it guidelines by Christ’s own words in Matthew 16:18-19, “And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this Rock I will build My Church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. I will give you the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

Here, we find the Church built strong and centered on Christ’s Salvation to further hope in love, instill faith in peace and live the charity of Eternal Life offered by Christ for all who, “at the Name of Jesus every knee should bend, of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:10-11 This is not to say even the Church will make mistakes for men not God still make decisions based upon earthly things when God only chooses Heavenly Truth. This Truth hurts sometimes and in the end corrects all faults by the Blood of His Son’s Cross.

We know that men make mistakes and run churches broke centered not on the Gospel of Christ Jesus but the stupid desires of the flesh wreaking havoc with pride displaying not the humility of Christ’s Truth. Yes, we all make mistakes but it how we surge forward in life to recognize the need for involvement spreading the joy of God’s Word established to offer faith and obedience to propel prayer whereby we give thanks to God for everything we think, say and accomplish to overcome desires of self tethered to the love of Christ recreated just like Peter in his confessed three times of love. We might deny Him but He opens His arms and receives you by His Grace of forgiveness. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray if we deny You LORD we repent quickly and hold on to Your Truth. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. We begin a novena of healing for a friend’s wife named Roxy. LORD from Psalm 136:23 I chant- “The LORD remembered us in our low estate, for His mercy endures forever.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Ephesians 6:17-20

Simon Peter confessed his love three times to concede- John 21:15-19

Jesus reappeared to the Disciples to eat
A breakfast of fish feeding the meek
Forgiveness would instill Peter to seek
Asking do you love Me will be the order to speak

The son of John Peter would no longer deny
As Jesus asked, “Do you love Me?” in a cry
You know all things Peter said to Eternally vie
As again Jesus asked a second time to spy

The real love Peter had for the Savior inside
No longer running but building to abide
“Simon, son of John, do you love Me? to confide
Peter answered yes LORD You know that I love Your stride

Jesus wasn’t finished in His Will for Peter’s streak
A third time He would ask if His love will always reach
For Jesus as he climbs to build the Churches peak
When Jesus replied the third time tend and feed His sheep

Growing old younger times will be the memories you see
Dressing yourself was easy as one two and three
Soon they will dress you and lead you to be
The kind of death to glorify by succumbing to always follow Me

Simon Peter confessed his love three times to concede

In Him I am ready for death without Him I am already dead.

I pray not only for them, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word, so that they may all be One, as you, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. Righteous Father, the world also does not know You, but I know You, and they know that You sent Me. I made known to them Your Name and I will make it known, that the Love with which You loved Me may be in them and I in them. John 17:20-21, 25-26

Acts 22:30; 23:6-11, Psalm 16 & John 17:20-26

Jesus has just consecrated everything the Father had ever shared with Him as He wondered the land sharing God’s Truth in Word by giving us a New Covenant of Love forthcoming in forgiveness shouldering the untruths of the world preparing for the death He sought absorbing every ounce of humanity’s sin. The Disciples are described by some Biblical Scholars as listening from a far this discourse Jesus had with the Father Himself asking to allow all God had shown Him would be revealed to the them from within as Jesus asks the Father to make them One to accomplish the faith, hope and love of charity.

Jesus asks to be made known in you too overcoming your ever rushing world of self-pity in ways you can only imagine but will relish by the surrender you give to living for His Truth. Jesus shouldn’t be something you deny but celebrate in confidence in every decision you make joining with Him to become One as you should your spouse abiding in thoughts, actions and deeds for the Good Will of mankind. I was encouraged by this beauty of living for Christ this week by a 93-year-old woman who held my hand and prayed the Our Father with me enjoining me with Christ’s love instilling surrender to God’s Word. In Him I am ready for death without Him I am already dead. Amen.
We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to remain in You as You remain in us. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. Prayers for Julian who by Gods miracle turned 23 yesterday.

Sometimes Jesus talked only with God
Praying aloud so the Disciples wouldn’t nod
A far they may say was Jesus praying to Him
Praying for Truth in the words they begin

Those who believe in their words find faith
They all become One with Love void of hate
As the Father is in Christ for us to relate
He asked we be in Them both as His Will of fate

The world will then believe You sent Me He said
Giving the glory the Father gave to Him instead
Of not sin and lying but Truth as they wed
Perfection only felt when you surrender your bed

The Father even loves You as He loved the Son
A gift to Jesus from the Father the ONLY One
Loved by Him before the world’s foundation was laid
God’s solution to forgiving sin by the Son Who paid

For all sins the Righteous Father even unknown He bled
In those who denied the Father or Christ Who fed
For Jesus made known the Father forgiveness instead
The Love of Him and His Son is in you He bred

In Him I am ready for death without Him I am already dead

Seeking riotousness avoiding debate creating dialogue absent of judgment and hate.

I know that after my departure savage wolves will come among you, and they will not spare the flock. And from your own group, men will come forward perverting the Truth to draw the disciples away after them. Now I commend you to God and to that gracious Word of His that can build you up and give you the inheritance among all who are consecrated. Acts 20: 29-30, 32

Consecrate them in the Truth. Your Word is Truth. As You sent Me into the world, so I sent them into the world. And I consecrate Myself for them, so that they also may be consecrated in Truth. John 17:17-19

Acts 20:28-38, Psalm 68 & John 17:11-19

To live a life in Christ I believe as Jesus describes today as well as Paul who followed Christ’s own Way that we must “consecrate” everything about our lives to living in Truth for the sake of Christ’s Gospel. This really isn’t as tough at it may sound because the surrender comes from obeying every day the need to delve into the Word of God with fervent desire to practice what we preach unceasingly praying about everything we practice. I see consecrating your life to Christ as giving up selfish desires and replacing them with righteous desires of God in faith, hope and love living in charity.

It means to go as far as God tells you to and then some by avoiding men “perverting the Truth” devouring your soul like “savage wolves” enticing your good nature by their good looks, swift charm and enticing personality focusing not on the Gospel of God’s Only Son but that of what a mere man can do forgoing what Christ’s Blood has already done. By living the Life of Christ we come to know what it means to be Spirit-led God-inspired and Christ-fed in everything we do seeking riotousness avoiding debate creating dialogue absent of judgment and hate. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to consecrate everything about our lives to Your Truth. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 137:6 I chant- “May my tongue stick to my palate if I do not remember You, if I do not exalt Jerusalem beyond all my delights.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,

†Spirit led God inspired Christ fed†
Ephesians 6:17-20

Consecrated in Truth is what I want them to be- John 17:11-19

Heaven held His gaze
Consecrated fix as He prayed
Father so Holy hold their daze
What You have given Me as One to blaze

IN Your name I protected them
By Your Name I taught them
IN Your Name I guarded them
None was lost except the son of destruction

As Scripture foretold as gave way to Your Plan
As I come to You to sit at Your Right Hand
Sharing my joy in the world as I speak candidly
Sharing what I’ve known from the beginning completely

Jesus gave us His Word to entail
A life of the Father none to curtail
The world hates His Word they eternally fail
Not belonging to this world Jesus wasn’t frail

None who believe belong to the world too
Please keep them from the Evil One’s deadly flu
The sickness of sin lacking what is True
Burning in hell the world boasts as proof

Truth is what we bind in His Word to see
God’s Word is Truth following Christ faithfully
Into the world He was sent to consecrate fully
Consecrated in Truth is what I want them to be

Give our all for Christ’s Purpose of living for the love of Truth.

This is My Commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. John 15:12-14

Acts 1:15-17, 20-26, Psalm 113 & John 15:9-17

The LORD asks us to be His friend by the life we lead for others obedient to His Truth laying down its purpose to share faith, hope and love as friend wanting nothing more than to see the fruits of love ignite the passion of Salvation. We discover the joy of giving when we truly give our all for Christ’s Purpose of living for the love of Truth. We can’t deny this need in every corner of the world by our love of sharing the Word of God in living as friends of Christ Jesus.

Many a time homeless people will say they have no way to repay me when I offer them clothes, food or a room to take a hot shower. People are so adamant about life’s needs by their costs instead of embracing the needs of existence by their courage of hard work, honest giving and faithful service to God’s Children allowing God’s love to encompass their lives of Truth. As Jesus said, “It was not you who chose Me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name He may give you.” Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to always love one another as You have loved us. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. Praying for a clean scan of Greg and Wayne. Amen. LORD from Psalm 15:1-3 I chant- “LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy mountain? Whoever walks without blame, doing what is right, speaking Truth from the heart; Who does not slander with his tongue, does no harm to a friend, never defames a neighbor.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,
Thomas Cruz†Wiggins
†Spirit led God inspired Christ fed†
Ephesians 6:17-20

Ask in My Name so He may give as you love one another- John 15:9-17

Jesus spoke as a lofty dove
Nothing greater than My love
As the Father loves He
The Son granting Truth to see

He spoke of love to have joy complete
Keeping His Father’s Commandments meet
Christ’s love as the love remaining to greet
Remaining in His love by a soulistic retreat

No greater love than this as I have loved you
Laying down your life is the proper thing to do
You are Christ’s friend if you give to accomplish Truth
No longer a slave because you know as He abides to soothe

Friends will hear what Christ has heard from His Father
No longer a burden but granting love without bother
Bearing fruit to remain in Christ’s Name as a brother
Ask in My Name so He may give as you love one another
