Psalms 34 encourages us:

15 ​​The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous,

​​And His ears are open to their cry.

16 ​​The face of the LORD is against those who do evil,

​​To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

​17 ​​The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears,

​​And delivers them out of all their troubles.

18 ​​The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart,

​​And saves such as have a contrite spirit.

​19 ​​Many are the afflictions of the righteous,

​​But the LORD delivers him out of them all.

Our Heavenly Father created the earth and all who inhabit it.  HE gave man the choice of which path to take: life or death.  Those who have chosen evil may have temporary, derivative power and authority but FATHER retains the right of original title over all of creation.  FATHER is fully aware not only the actions of men but all their intent.  HE knows our deepest thought processes and respects our desire to walk worthy of HIM.  HIS ears are open to our cry.

FATHER is in the deliverance business and I expect we will need that aspect of HIS Character soon.  David was delivered from the hand of King Saul and by THE SPIRIT he wrote in Psalm 18:

1 I will love You, O LORD, my strength.

2 ​​The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;

​​My God, my strength, in whom I will trust;

​​My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

3 ​​I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised;

​​So shall I be saved from my enemies.

There is a polarization occurring in the U.S. as well as other countries around the world.  Men are creating division in order to conquer the masses.  Governments are being toppled where there is no righteous unity.  Large corporations are funding nefarious activities without regard for the masses.  There will soon come a day of reckoning and the only question will be which group will people be associated- the wheat or the tares.  FATHER did not remove David from the earth but instead removed Saul from David.  When the death angel went through Egypt, the children of Israel were not removed but covered and protected by the Blood of the Lamb.  Judgment will come forth and those who are righteous will be supernaturally protected throughout the judgment process.  FATHER delivers HIS people by removing the affliction.

In Luke chapter 4 Jesus affirmed:

17 And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written:

​18 ​​“The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me,

​​Because He has anointed Me

​​To preach the gospel to the poor;

​​He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,

​​To proclaim liberty to the captives

​​And recovery of sight to the blind,

​​To set at liberty those who are oppressed;

19 ​​To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD.”

Our Deliverer has spoken and affirmed His power and authority over all who would oppress FATHER’S Sons and Daughters.  Let us stand firmly on HIS Word!

In Matthew chapter 5, Jesus spoke:

1 And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him.

2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:

​3 ​​“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4 ​​Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

5 ​​Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.”

Jesus spoke about people being blessed resulting in: inheriting the Kingdom of Heaven, receiving comfort, and inheriting the earth.  The challenge in understanding these blessings comes from the use of the English words: poor, mourn, and meek.  These words do not really fit the context of what Jesus was proclaiming as blessings nor do the results tie to our current use of these three words.

I would suggest that if “poor in spirit” were to be translated as “simple and uncomplicated” we would embrace the intent of the blessing.  Jesus affirmed this when He spoke in Matthew chapter 18:

2 Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them,

3 and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

4 Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives Me.

Jesus spoke again in Matthew 19:

14  But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”

If there is anyone who lives a simple and uncomplicated life, it is a child.  The child has not been tainted by the traditions of man and does not attempt to over analyze everything in life.  Most children are quick to accept the simplicity of an answer and do not attempt to complicate situations.  They are quick to forgive and have no lingering bitterness in their hearts.  They are the essence of “simple and uncomplicated”.

We generally attach a negative connotation to the word “mourning” in relation to loss.  Jesus was not being negative but instead was conveying a Truth in this blessing.  In this verse let us read it as “Blessed are those who purge and release, for they shall be comforted”.  We become attached to others as well as “things” and must be willing to let go when the time comes.  We must purge ourselves of any attachment which would prevent us from living in the “here and now”.  We must trust FATHER will take care of our loved ones as they release their physical bodies and HE embraces them in HIS Love.  We must release them so that we can move forward and continue in our individual callings.  We should not feel guilt or sadness if we truly believe they are in a better state with FATHER. 

When we purge and release anything in the past, it allows us to move forward without looking back.  The purging process is a healing process and we must let our emotions heal after any loss.

In today’s usage of the word “meek” it simply does not fit the blessing of inheriting the earth.  However “living in moderation” provides us with the intent of the blessing.  In Psalms chapter 37 we find:

11  But the meek shall inherit the earth,
And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

The “meek” are contrasted from the wicked in this chapter.  The wicked men plot to destroy, go to war, borrow and not repay, whereas the steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD and delights in his way.  Those who live in moderation and walk by THE SPIRIT will be the inheritors of the earth.  They do not hoard neither do they live a life of greed.  Jesus never walked in scarcity nor did He seek reputation but simply lived in moderation. 

Moderation allows the flow to remain in balance at all times, maintaining equilibrium and not moving to extremes.  We should never attempt to take on more than we can handle.  Some people can handle more than others, especially in the area of finances.  We must not let our soulish man dictate our needs and desires for they would move to the extreme.  Living in moderation brings forth an abundance of peace and blessing.

By THE SPIRIT it is written in Deuteronomy chapter 28:

8 “The LORD will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the LORD your God is giving you.

9 “The LORD will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the LORD your God and walk in His ways.”

A storehouse denotes abundance beyond satisfying the requirements of today.  Your storehouse represents the results of what you set your hand to do.  FATHER fully endorses and expects us to be active, productive, and prudent with the opportunities HE places before us.  Any diversion from HIS directive for your life only serves to delay this blessing.  Many never reach the point of being established in HIS blessings.

The purpose of HIM blessing us is to establish us as a Holy people to HIMSELF.  There are those who would encourage the flow of blessing and then take another path which ultimately lead toward destruction.  This occurs when they begin believing they were able to be successful independent of FATHER.  Others are successful in attaining resources because FATHER will need those resources at a future time to establish HIS Holy people.  They were simply stewards for a period of time.

Some people place such a focus on a future prophetic events that they end up doing nothing, expecting to be delivered at the time of the prophecy.  In the final analysis, they were simply unproductive for the Kingdom.  This is exactly why we must seek to be led by THE SPIRIT each and every day.  There are some projects we should take on and others we should pass on.  FATHER knows which ones fit into HIS purpose for our lives.

We must trust that FATHER will command the blessing on us.  HE has sufficient power and authority over all creation to assure HIS Word will come to pass.  There will be times when you are in the midst of work when your mind will question the outcome but you must simply work through any doubt as you walk out HIS instructions.  You should endeavor to be the best at what you are doing, not just meeting minimum requirements.  Your quality of work should reflect your mandate from Above.  FATHER only selected the best artisans for HIS tabernacle in the Wilderness.  There were no “slackers” involved in its construction.

By all earthly measures, the current system is quickly moving toward a major change.  I believe it is our responsibility to prepare ourselves for whatever outcome is ahead.  FATHER will prevail in any case but HE will use those who have been fully prepared and matured for such a time as is ahead of us.  Those who have established themselves as doers of HIS Word and not hearers only as James wrote in chapter 1:

22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror;

24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.

25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

Are you being deceived?  A doer is blessed and one who does nothing lives in constant scarcity.  Scarcity is relative to your calling and scarcity to one person may look like abundance to another.  We have abundance if we have sufficiency in all things pertaining to our individual lives.  Set your hand to the purpose FATHER has called you and HE will command the blessing upon you.  Do nothing and you will receive a reward of nothing.

The Beloved Disciple John wrote in 3 John:

2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

Within this one verse, there is much power.  If anyone understood the Divine Intent of FATHER having spent 3 1/2 years with HIS Beloved Son, it would be John whom Jesus Loved.  John’s first priority is the prosperity of our soul or Spiritual health and Spiritual success.  In the “faith” movement, evangelists would focus on physical prosperity without first considering the Spiritual requirements.  People wanted the result without regard to the intent of the Spiritual Truth found in this verse.

The “cause” of success in all things including health is that your soul has become successful in Spiritual matters, not the opposite.  People are eager for a quick fix to their problems and many evangelists were willing to accommodate their eagerness by selling the concept of man’s view of FATHER’S Word.  Many who were fleeced will no longer consider the very Scriptures which contain the promises of FATHER to HIS children.

Jesus never walked in scarcity but had sufficiency in all things.  Prosperity is relative to your needs and calling.  I don’t need five cars to provide me transportation.  Prosperity in transportation is a good, reliable vehicle.  There is a simplicity in prosperity that suggests it is as important to not have too much as it is not to have too little.  There are men and women who have a “scarcity” mentality and hoard possessions as though FATHER will cut off the flow at some point.

In Luke chapter 6, Jesus spoke:

38 “Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”

Jesus expects us to be successful which in turn allows us to give out of Love.  If you sow sparingly you will reap sparingly for you determine the measure by which you will receive benefit.  It is all about intent.  We should never pay too much for a good or service but more importantly we should never pay too little.  When you exploit the situation by paying too little, you are not Loving the other person and thus you restrict the measure of your return.  FATHER is interested in fairness in all matters of exchange.  When you muzzle the oxen, you minimize the output benefitting those who are being fed by the oxen’s output.

Is there an issue of scarcity in Heaven?  Not at all.  FATHER allows no scarcity in Heaven and it is HIS Divine Intent for Heaven and its qualities to come and be fully expressed on earth in all areas.  We must quit omitting aspects of Heaven which are not currently operating in our individual lives.  If I am living in lack in a particular area it is because I have yet to receive revelation in this aspect of HIS Divine Intent.  I am void of HIS Word thus I should focus and renew my mind to the revealing of the Truth and Intent about this area.

Jesus multiplied fish and bread when the need arose and provided the young man with twelve baskets of food to take home, notably more than what he came with.  Jesus is generous by nature and expresses FATHER’S generosity.  We must not limit FATHER by our past misconceptions based on men’s teaching and interpretations.  As we embrace the fullness of Love we will become generous to others.  When my grandkids have a need, I don’t look to barely fulfill it.  I truly want to exceed their expectation.  Is FATHER any different?

In Luke chapter 11 Jesus spoke:

9 “So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

10 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

11 If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish?

12 Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?

13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

FATHER is more than willing to give good gifts to HIS sons and daughters.  By giving the Holy Spirit FATHER has given us a means to daily guide our footsteps to success in all areas of our lives.  First the Spiritual, then the physical.  As our soul prospers by being led by THE SPIRIT, we will be successful in health and in all we set our hand to accomplish thus we will eliminate scarcity in our lives.  In turn we can be a blessing to others because now we have the ability to give.

We often try to limit FATHER by restricting HIM with our understanding and perspective.  We will latch on to a particular verse that fits our view and fail to look at the big picture.  In Psalm 103 we are provided a subtle difference in perspective:

7  He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

When man lives in scarcity it is due to there being a hindrance in the flow from Heaven for in Heaven there is no scarcity or lack whatsoever.  FATHER’S creative power provides for any and all requirements to sustain life and light hence HE is known as THE CREATOR.  How is it we call HIM FATHER and fail to acknowledge a most fundamental aspect of HIM being Provider?

Lack and scarcity are manmade temporary states of condition.  Before the Old Covenant,  FATHER made an emphatic statement to Abraham in Genesis chapter 12:

1 Now the LORD had said to Abram:

​​​“Get out of your country,

​​From your family

​​And from your father’s house,

​​To a land that I will show you.

2 ​​I will make you a great nation;

​​I will bless you

​​And make your name great;

​​And you shall be a blessing.

3 ​​I will bless those who bless you,

​​And I will curse him who curses you;

​​And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

Blessing denotes favor, prosperity, and increase in all areas of your life.  It does not mean lack, sickness, and scarcity.  Abraham needed to respond to FATHER’S Word and depart from his current place and situation (or state) so that he could receive the fullness of the blessing from FATHER.  Those who cursed Abraham would be cursed themselves.  The curses would include a list referred to in Deuteronomy chapter 28:

16 “Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the country.

17 “Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.

18 “Cursed shall be the fruit of your body and the produce of your land, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.

19 “Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go out.

20 “The LORD will send on you cursing, confusion, and rebuke in all that you set your hand to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, because of the wickedness of your doings in which you have forsaken Me.

21 The LORD will make the plague cling to you until He has consumed you from the land which you are going to possess.

22 The LORD will strike you with consumption, with fever, with inflammation, with severe burning fever, with the sword, with scorching, and with mildew; they shall pursue you until you perish.”

Has FATHER changed since HE spoke these Words to Abraham or the children of Israel?  Not at all.  HE went further to reconcile us by sending HIS first begotten Son to reveal HIS Love for us, further revealing HIS Divine Intent of Love behind HIS Words of blessing.  HE did not negate blessing and prosperity.  The problem with prosperity is when man perverts it for his own selfish use rather than the Intent FATHER has endorsed.  As we embrace blessing with the intent of Love, we will open up the storehouses of Heaven that await those who walk in Love and operate in faith.  We must fully trust FATHER and HIS Word to bring forth provision to establish the Kingdom in a supernatural manner.  We must shed the orientation to lack, sickness, and disease as though HE is unable to deliver us out of calamity.  Each of us is just one Divinely imparted thought away from the solution to our problem.

In Philippians chapter 3, Paul wrote by THE SPIRIT:

17 Brethren, join in following my example, and note those who so walk, as you have us for a pattern.

18 For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:

19 whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things.

20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

21 who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself.

Paul mentions two examples: one to follow and one to disregard.  Paul’s example or pattern is differentiated by the “cross of Christ”.  He wrote in 2 Corinthians chapter 5 that “He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”  The cross is where our reconciliation to FATHER was fully accomplished that we might become citizens of Heaven.  Anyone who teaches otherwise is an enemy of this Truth and their destruction is assured.  They preach and teach earthly doctrines which are at best temporal.

Paul boldly expresses the difference of the two paths men can take.  He spoke from first hand experience as he had experience both paths himself.  He walked in great Love and gratitude for his deliverance on that fateful day on the road to Damascus.  The light shone from Heaven and Jesus Himself revealed to Paul that He is “The Way”.  Paul saw Jesus in His glorious body and saw in His eyes the Love which intervened and took Paul off the path as an enemy of the cross of Christ.

The cross of Christ has Love at its foundation and motivation.  The Beloved Disciple wrote of this revelation of Love in John chapter 3:

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

18 “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.

21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”

Most people can quote John 3:16 but the verses afterward clearly express FATHER’S Divine Intent.  FATHER is not looking to condemn us but instead to redeem us unto HIMSELF.  HE is looking for citizens to populate Heaven.  Citizenship is the state of being vested with the rights, privileges, and duties of a person authorized to live in a community.  Those people who are citizens in Heaven have accepted the Truth of the cross of Christ atoning for their sins so that they are reconciled to FATHER.  You and I have rights, privileges and duties as citizens.  Everyone is quick to embrace the rights and privileges but we must not forget the duties to our fellow man.  We are to establish HIS Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven.  Love is the focus in Heaven as it will come forth on earth as HIS Sons and Daughters come to full maturity.  The tares will be removed and the fruitfulness of the harvest will be left to feed mankind.  We will be conformed to His Glorious Body as He subdues all things to Himself.

Your duty is to operate in your gifts and calling.  Now is the time to be fruitful in that which you have been called.

In 1 Timothy chapter 5, Paul wrote:

17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

18 For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain,” and, “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”

Life is about promoting “flow and exchange” whether it relate to THE SPIRIT, blood, water, or other resources including money.  Every morning as FATHER gives me something to convey to others, I faithfully forward it for the benefit of all who would read these words throughout the earth.  Clearly there are billions who have not found this site but those who have and are drawn to return benefit from this flow of THE SPIRIT.  What would happen if I simply received the Word and did not spread it?  The flow would be stopped like a dam holding back water.  I would be blessed with the relevant Word for the day but no one else would receive needed ministry and instruction.

Those who faithfully carry out FATHER’S directions over sustained periods of time on behalf of The Body of Christ are called elders.  By THE SPIRIT, Paul says they are worthy of “double honor”.  In the context of verse 18 Paul is referring to twice the money or wages.

Be assured that I am not writing this in an attempt to extract your funds for I look to FATHER as my Source.  My family has not only been sustained but blessed by being givers ourselves so I know how FATHER’S economics works.  As you give, FATHER honors your intent by increasing the flow of resources back to you.  It is FATHER’S directive that we not “muzzle” the ox while it does its part in treading out the grain.  On the other hand, people who do not understand FATHER’S Divine Intent of provision dam up the flow of funds generally out of fear of scarcity.

Muzzling the oxen refers to Deuteronomy 25:

4 “You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain.”

The ox must maintain its optimum strength in order to carry out its function on behalf of the Body of Christ.  The “selfish” people who focus on their own scarcity would have the oxen performing its task in a minimum fashion, barely making it through the day.  Those who understand FATHER’S view want the best for the oxen so that it can work in an optimal manner.  This is where wisdom enters into the picture.  Proverbs chapter 14 speaks of wisdom concerning the ways of Life and death.  In verse 4 we find:

4 ​​Where no oxen are, the trough is clean;

​​But much increase comes by the strength of an ox.

Wisdom says “Taking care of your ox is a wise investment in your future.”  If you can’t cheerfully embrace the revelation of this topic you will also hinder the flow.  I suspect FATHER has me write on this topic because of two reasons:  First, HE knows I will be obedient even though there will be some who will look for error to justify their hoarding.  Secondly, I know FATHER well enough and we have a history of HIM providing for me and my family.  Our history includes the revelation of cheerful giving.

This Word today is directed to those who have faithfully served FATHER over time and have done their part in laboring in the Word and doctrine.  Blessings will not be withheld but FATHER will honor that work in a greater degree.  THE SPIRIT of FATHER had Paul write this passage and it is just as relevant as any other verses that make up HIS Word to us.

Wisdom says “Let the cheerful givers give and withhold not”.  The hoarders will continue filling their barns until their death and the benefit will end up in hands of others at some future time.  FATHER’S economy demands that the rivers of Living Water flow forth.  The body demands that blood flow through the veins to provide nourishment.  The Truth of the matter is simple.  To carry it out demands taking command over the soulish thoughts and be led by THE SPIRIT.  Blessed are those who are willing to embrace ALL of The Word, not just a portion.  Their strength will continue to increase.

In the 5th chapter of Ephesians, Paul wrote:

25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,

26 that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word,

27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.

28 So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself.

Every serious student of Scripture would like to know exactly when FATHER plans to intervene on their behalf.  Prophetic writers and speakers have been predicting major events for decades and now is no different.  I recall when Jesus was suppose to return for the church in 1988 as well as many other dates scattered throughout the last several decades.  As each target date passed, we simply went on to the next plausible date and focused on it.  I found that as I focused on those dates that I became less productive in the “here and now” to the degree that I felt that time was wasted in the interim.  I finally realized that I should treat each day equally important and not get caught up in some future date.

We are cleansed by the washing of water by The Word.  As FATHER speaks to you and me on a daily basis HE is removing any spots and/or wrinkles so that we should be holy and without blemish.  Communication is critical to this process.  As we speak we either promote life or else we promote death.  As husbands we are given the mandate to speak words of life and encouragement to our wives for the purpose of them becoming “spotless”.  Our wives are to reflect us in the same manner that the true church will reflect the values of Jesus Christ.  For those of you who are married, does your spouse reflect Christ?  For those who are single, to what degree does your life reflect Christ?

I once knew a man who had studied Scripture for years and then finally proclaimed it was no longer required and he “closed the book” as though he no longer had need to study the Written Word.  Many others have effectively done the same thing without any fanfare but I say to you that there are many more facets to Scripture than will be revealed to us in a normal lifetime.  How would you like for FATHER to cease communicating with you?  As for me, I desire more communication not less.

Communication is a means of connecting, imparting, and exchanging ideas, thoughts, and direction.  As I grow older and more mature in Christ I am convinced that hearing FATHER daily is key to my progress in removing “spot or wrinkle”.  Each and every day before I write these blogs, FATHER instructs me what to write.  I have no hidden agenda or preconceived notion but simply respond to HIM.  Beloved brothers and sisters will communicate with me about specific blogs and how they were appropriate to their situation.  These writings may tweak guilt or remorse to some.  If so, it is because FATHER needed to expose a spot or wrinkle for removal.  There are some blogs I write that cause me to change as well.  As FATHER’S Spirit leads me, I write.  I purpose to be the first to change as a result of a Word of correction.

Love is the basis of all things pertaining to life.  Absence of Love promotes death, division, and destruction.  When my wife and I are at odds concerning anything, I ultimately have to accept responsibility for failing to inject Love into that facet of our marriage.  Jesus came to perfect the church, not condemn it.  The church is to reflect Jesus just as the moon reflects the light of the sun.  If my wife is not reflecting Love in a situation, it is time for us to communicate and expose the issue.  Not in a condemning or judgmental manner, but pursue resolution with Loving sensitivity.  I must admit I am still being perfected in this area myself.

Jesus proclaimed in the Gospel of John, chapter 10:

10 “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.”

Are you and I producing life in abundance in our interaction with others?  In Luke chapter 6 Jesus also spoke:

45  “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.”

If we have Love in our hearts, our words will express that Love.  If we say nothing, what does that indicate?  If we speak negatively and judgmental, where is Love found within?  FATHER’S Breath of Life is in every person for HE formed each and every one of us in the womb, no exceptions.  Therefore we should be communicating Love and life to all mankind.  Yes, there will be times of needed correction but it must be done out of Love.  Communication is the key to conveying the revelation of Love to others.  Let your words build up others and bring forth good.  Be transparent and allow your Love to shine forth in others.  This is exactly what Jesus did as He proclaimed the Gospel!
