Many are called but few are chosen.

Each of us has a calling and it is closely associated with our righteous passion.

If you are willing to give up your passion, you will always have it.  It may lay dormant for a period of time but it will be there once FATHER’S timing comes forth in your life.

One of the first tests you must pass is the money test.  This test is at the core in dealing with the soul and body.  Both Jesus and Paul focused on this issue so The Holy Spirit directed me to also write about it.  I personally have no problem in writing about this test because after many challenges, I was able to overcome the money test and become a cheerful giver.  Paul speaks of the issues associated with our mindset.  Do we have wood, had, and stubble that need to be removed?  Those are all aspects of immaturity and the lack of excellence.  Those issues of immaturity will be dealt with but it is our choice of when.

Paul spoke by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Corinthians chapter 3:

2 I had to nurse you and feed you with “milk,” not with the solid food of more advanced teachings, because you weren’t ready for it. In fact, you are still not ready to be fed solid food, 3 for you are living your lives dominated by the mind-set of the flesh. Ask yourselves: Is there jealousy among you? Do you compare yourselves with others? Do you quarrel like children and end up taking sides? If so, this proves that you are living your lives centered on yourselves, dominated by the mind-set of the flesh, and behaving like unbelievers. 4 For when you divide yourselves up in groups— a “Paul group” and an “Apollos group”—you’re acting like people without the Spirit’s influence. 5 Who is Apollos, really? Or who is Paul? Aren’t we both just servants through whom you believed our message? Aren’t each of us doing the ministry the Lord has assigned to us?

6 I was the one who planted the church and Apollos came and cared for it, but it was God who caused it to grow. 7 This means the one who plants is not anybody special, nor the one who waters, for

God is the One who brings the Supernatural growth.

8 Now, the one who plants and the one who waters are equally important and on the same team, but each will be rewarded for his own work. 9 We are coworkers with God and you are God’s cultivated garden, the House HE is building.

10 God has given me unique gifts as a skilled master builder who lays a good foundation. Afterward another craftsman comes and builds on it. So builders beware! Let every builder do his work carefully, according to God’s standards. 11 For no one is empowered to lay an alternative foundation other than the good foundation that exists, which is Jesus Christ!

12 The quality of materials used by anyone building on this foundation will soon be made apparent, whether it has been built with gold, silver, and costly stones, or wood, hay, and straw. Their work will soon become evident, for the Day will make it clear, because it will be revealed by blazing fire! And the fire will test and prove the workmanship of each builder. 14 If his work stands the test of fire, he will be rewarded. 15 If his work is consumed by the fire, he will suffer great loss. Yet he himself will barely escape destruction, like one being rescued out of a burning house.

In order to walk in excellence, we are to manifest our callings toward those in need whom we come in contact.  Our callings are directly related to accessing our Covenant with FATHER for we do not need to plead with HIM to receive the benefits of our Covenant with HIM but rather align ourselves so that we are found fully trustworthy.

Your mindset is your limits.

Your marketplace is based on those around you with needs and the demand for your calling is based on the manifestation of that calling where the marketplace sees it and wants to draw on it.  When we manifest our calling, a flow of supply and demand is created.  This expands The Kingdom of GOD on earth. 

Anyone who has a negative impact on your calling must be removed from your inner circle.  Those who want to impede, control and manipulate you must be identified so that their impact on your calling is removed.

Our Covenant with FATHER through Jesus Christ’s Blood is stronger than our giving.  We will receive wealth and resources from all sources because of our Covenant and we can be trusted with great wealth, however our motive must be that we Love GOD.  Those who simply attempt to work the “system” will be those who Jesus never knew.

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 7 concerning access to our Covenant:

7 “Ask (demand), and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9 Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him! 12 Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

You have to be under full authority of The Holy Spirit to have authority and walk in the manifestation of your calling!

Prosperity has to do more with authority than it does giving.

I am posting the following to provide perspective on the state of the current system. I urge you to focus on the spiritual since that is where all true solutions are found. We will navigate through the coming months by being led by The Holy Spirit rather than what fearful men do. We need to be as wise as “serpents” during these times!

I have been involved in financial markets for roughly 40 years, the news out this past Thursday was in my opinion more important than ANY announcement during those years. In fact, when I heard it, I thought of it as “the shot heard ’round the world”! But here we are Sunday and almost no discussion nor coverage of “Russia will demand trade payment from the unfriendly countries (the West) in gold…or rubles if they wish”. Are people so dumbed down they do not understand what was said?

 First a little background. Russia has been sanctioned by the West and even had some of their FOREX reserves “frozen” (read STOLEN) in an effort to bleed them dry financially and stall military efforts. The freeze came several years after the US very mistakenly began threatening Russia with a cutoff from the SWIFT system. If anyone believes that Vladimir Putin has not used these years since the original threats, to prepare, I believe you are grossly mistaken. You see, the West absolutely needs Russian trade material more than Russia needs dollars.

 Russia does not need the dollars to survive because they are not highly indebted. In fact, they are only 14% debt to GDP whereas most western nations are well above 100%. Besides, who does Russia owe money to that requires dollar payments? Western financial institutions? Do you see where this goes? By using SWIFT and the dollar as a weapon versus Russia, the US just blew a hole under the waterline in the USS Dollar!

 To explain, if Russia demands either gold or rubles from the West, then recipients of trade will need gold and or rubles to make settlement. Some nations still have gold (poor Canada) but few have any rubles held in their reserve accounts. (In fact, the US has very small foreign reserve balances as it was not needed with the dollar itself being the world’s reserve currency and dollars can and are simply printed). How will the US settle trade with Russia? By sending Ft. Knox gold…which may or may not be there as no audit has been done since the 1950’s? Or by paying with rubles which we do not own? Or will we just forego the many natural resources we import from Russia?

 The net result is severe dollar weakness and a strong bid under gold AND the ruble because any western nation wishing to import Russian material will need to either buy gold or rubles for payment. Another way of saying this is; they will need to sell either their local currency (or their dollar reserves held) in order to procure gold/rubles to make payment. Do you remember when supply and demand used to “matter”?

 In the same way that Russia views the Ukraine as we did the Cuban missile crisis, Russia’s demand for payment in gold/rubles is to Kissinger arranging for Saudi Arabia to ONLY accept dollars for oil. Settlement flows are huge and not just on the margin. They are not just huge, they are “contagious” if you will? There are many countries who today use dollars because they have to, they have been forced to. I also believe much of the current trade settlement in dollars would be done in other currencies if it was “allowed”. It will not be a shock to see dollar trade flows shrink dramatically as many nations will use this as an opportunity to shed their dollar hegemony shackles!

 Let’s finish with an overview. The US has for years relied on “King dollar” to support living well beyond our financial means. Having the privilege of issuing the world’s reserve currency (and the most powerful military) allowed the US to borrow $ trillions upon trillions. This is now changing after our bungled retreat from Afghanistan…and now Russia challenging the trade dollar. Can you imagine what US GDP would have been all these years without massive deficit spending? Can you imagine the levels where equity markets would be trading if not for all the easy and free credit thrown around? Can you imagine where interest rates would have been (and will be) if it wasn’t for reserve currency privilege? And thus, can you imagine what the US standard of living would have been? Unfortunately, we are about to find out the answers to all these questions!

 Lastly, please understand the coming problems as they will entail every facet of life. US (and global) financial markets will be greatly affected as lower dollar demand will create a de facto margin call on an already struggling Ponzi scheme. Also, trade balances will be forced back into relative realignment. Meaning those with the greatest trade deficits will feel the pain the most. Especially those nations that allowed their manufacturing and production to leave and instead import. Is the current predicament because of poor judgement/decisions/planning…or, was it the plan all along?

Standing watch,

This is one of the projects focused on the Kids In Need we financially support:

It is all about unconditional Love for these Kids In Need!

Jubilee is all about debt cancellation.

FATHER’S Covenant of Love in the Old Testament is not superior to that of the New Testament.  If fact, HIS Covenant is perfected by The Blood of Jesus.

Moses wrote by The Holy Spirit in Leviticus chapter 25:

8 ‘And you shall count seven sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years; and the time of the seven sabbaths of years shall be to you forty-nine years. 9 Then you shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement you shall make the trumpet to sound throughout all your land.

10 And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a Jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his possession, and each of you shall return to his family. 11 That fiftieth year shall be a Jubilee to you; in it you shall neither sow nor reap what grows of its own accord, nor gather the grapes of your untended vine. 12 For it is the Jubilee; it shall be holy to you; you shall eat its produce from the field.

13 ‘In this Year of Jubilee, each of you shall return to his possession. 14 And if you sell anything to your neighbor or buy from your neighbor’s hand, you shall not oppress one another. 15 According to the number of years after the Jubilee you shall buy from your neighbor, and according to the number of years of crops he shall sell to you. 16 According to the multitude of years you shall increase its price, and according to the fewer number of years you shall diminish its price; for he sells to you according to the number of the years of the crops. 17 Therefore you shall not oppress one another, but you shall fear your God; for I am the LORD your God.

We are to walk in the “fear of THE LORD”.  When did the “fear of THE LORD” begin to leave America?  It began when The Lord’s Prayer was removed from schools.  This occurred in 1962.  Once this happened the students were no longer exposed to a Higher Power thus they began to forget the “fear of THE LORD”.  Slowly, extramarital sex became popular thus promoting the abortion industry.  Drugs infiltrated society as people looked to escape the Truth which was once spoken by most students.  It has become a multi-billion dollar industry.

The fear of THE LORD is connected to Jubilee.  Every time the Gospel is preached, Jubilee occurs and I assure you that people are in dire need of Jubilee at this point in history.  Nefarious individuals at the highest level of the current system want to permanently enslave the masses or kill off those who are non-compliant to their mandates.  We are in the midst of a great spiritual battle with the adversary.  In the end, he and his minions will lose because FATHER has anticipated every one of his past attempts and this time will be no different.  Be of good courage for the Truth is being revealed.  Now is the time to expect Jubilee in your life.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Corinthians chapter 5:

11 Since we are those who stand in Holy Awe of the Lord (fear of THE LORD), we make it our passion to persuade others to turn to Him. We know that our lives are transparent before the God who knows us fully, and I hope that we are also well known to your consciences.

12Again, we are not taking an opportunity to brag, but giving you information that will enable you to be proud of us, and to answer those who esteem outward appearances while overlooking what is in the heart.

13If we are out of our minds in a blissful, divine ecstasy, it is for God, but if we are in our right minds, it is for your benefit. 14For it is Christ’s Love that fuels our passion and holds us tightly, because we are convinced that He has given His life for all of us. This means all died with Him, 15so that those who live should no longer live self-absorbed lives but lives that are poured out for Him—the One who died for us and now lives again.

16 So, from now on, we refuse to evaluate people merely by their outward appearances. For that’s how we once viewed the Anointed One, but no longer do we see him with limited human insight.

17Now, if anyone is enfolded into Christ, he has become an entirely new person. All that is related to the old order has vanished.  Behold, everything is fresh and new.  18And God has made all things new, and reconciled us to Himself, and given us the ministry of reconciling others to God. 19In other words, it was through the Anointed One that God was shepherding the world, not even keeping records of their transgressions, and He has entrusted to us the ministry of opening the door of reconciliation to God. 

20We are ambassadors of the Anointed One who carry the message of Christ to the world, as though God were tenderly pleading with them directly through our lips. So we tenderly plead with you on Christ’s behalf, “Turn back to God and be reconciled to Him.” 21For God made the only One who did not know sin to become sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God through our union with Him.

Reconciliation to GOD is the greatest form of Jubilee for our debts are forgiven in Heaven and there is no record of transgressions any longer.  They have been expunged from our books.  In addition, we have the gifts residing on the inside of us to be activated so that we will experience full Jubilee in all areas of our lives as we activate them.  However, it is up to us to walk in Jubilee.

There is plenty of money; there just needs to be a wealth transfer to those who are led by The Holy Spirit.

I acknowledge that there are some believers who will not read blogs that challenge them in the area of giving.  Out if sight, out of mind!  They reject all the Scriptures that deal with this topic.  Why?  This is primary to the adversary’s quest to keep the Kingdom of GOD from expanding.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1^st Timothy 6:

10  Loving money (greed) is the first step toward all kinds of trouble. Some people run after it so much that they have given up their faith. Craving more money pushes them away from the faith into error, compounding misery in their lives!

The love of money is the root of all evil.  Shouldn’t we pluck up evil by the root?  Some believers don’t want to confront this issue yet The Holy Spirit makes the “root” issue abundantly clear!  Jesus focuses on the issue, FATHER focuses on the issue, and Paul focuses on the issue.  As a result, I too must write about this issue.  Why?  I have overcome debt by exercising faith in HIS Word thus I am qualified to be a witness to this Truth.  I can tell you that I have been in debt and out of debt… out of debt is better!

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Corinthians chapter 9:

6 Here’s my point. A stingy sower will reap a meager harvest, but the one who sows from a generous spirit will reap an abundant harvest. 7Let giving flow from your heart, not from a sense of religious duty. Let it spring up freely from the joy of giving—all because God Loves hilarious generosity! 

8Yes, God is more than ready to overwhelm you with every form of grace, so that you will have more than enough of everything —every moment and in every way. He will make you overflow with abundance in every good thing you do. 9Just as the Scriptures say about the one who trusts in Him:

Because he has sown extravagantly and given to the poor,

his kindness and generous deeds will never be forgotten.

10This generous God who supplies abundant seed for the farmer, which becomes bread for our meals, is even more extravagant toward you. First He supplies every need, plus more. Then he multiplies the seed as you sow it, so that the harvest of your generosity will grow. 11You will be abundantly enriched in every way as you give generously on every occasion, for when we take your gifts to those in need, it causes many to give thanks to God.

This ministry of receiving and giving is a primary mandate of Servias Ministries.  My wife and I have experienced FATHER’S blessings and have more than enough of everything.  Some people are envious because they have not experienced what FATHER has done in our lives yet they have not walked in the same level of commitment to FATHER as we have.  They want the harvest without sowing seed.  I can’t help it if they are uncommitted to walking the walk. 

We have loved ones who live from paycheck to paycheck even though we have helped them multiple times in the past.  We can’t help their blindness though they have been exposed to The Word.  In the final analysis, it is all about trusting FATHER and understanding HIS Love which is unwavering.  Perfect Love casts out fear so we are able to walk according to HIS Word in faith, expecting HIM to provide for us. 

I can assist you into all Truth yet I cannot force you to embrace these Truths presented as of late.  I can’t force you to quit hoarding and loading up your “balance sheet of assets” as though you are assured those assets won’t become worthless in the future.  I have seen men lose their fortunes in days.  I have seen $200 million in a portfolio evaporate within a short period of time.  I have seen mansions go to sheriff’s sales.  I have even seen a pension fund unable to access but a small portion of its cash mandated by the bank during a crisis.  These situations should be a wakeup call to those who trust in uncertain riches tied to the current system.  You have been warned!

There is plenty of money; it is just in the wrong hands.

The word mortgage means: death grip.  How many of you are currently enslaved by death’s financial grip?  This should not be.  However, the current system promotes a continuous grip on your finances by wooing you to buy newer, bigger, better, etc., appealing to your fleshly and/or soulish appetite.  For many believers, it is out of ignorance of The Word that causes them to walk according to the world’s system of borrowing enslavement.  FATHER has no mortgages in Heaven for HE is the source of wealth.

Wisdom wrote by The Holy Spirit in Proverbs chapter 22:

7  If you borrow money with interest, you’ll end up serving the interests of your creditors, for the rich rule over the poor.

The borrower is servant to the lender, a sad reality.  As long as you make your payments to them, they will treat you well.  On the other hand, they will use the current laws to throw you out of your house if you fail to make those payments by foreclosing on your house, sending the sheriff to enforce the action.  This is not FATHER’s way of doing business and it should not be your way either.

What if all the believers embraced the revelation of being debt free and manifested it in their lives?  The banks would no longer pay those obscene bonuses to their executives at the expense of others.  How much money does a person really need to enjoy life?  The adversary wants people with money to hoard it rather than distribute to the necessities of other. 

Jesus spoke a parable.  This is taken from the Combined Gospels of Love:

JESUS TELLS “THE PARABLE OF THE “BARNS”

One of the people listening to Jesus teach in the Temple asks Him if He will “speak to my brother” in order that his brother will divide his inheritance with him.  Jesus tells the man that He did not come to be “a judge or a divider over” the people.  He also warns the man to beware of covetousness, for a man’s life does not revolve around the things that he does or does not own. To demonstrate this wisdom, Jesus provides the man and those gathered before Him in the Temple with a parable.

Luke 12:13-21And one of the company said unto Him, “Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.”  And He said unto him, “Man, who made Me a judge or a divider over you?”  And He said unto them, “Take heed and beware of covetousness for a man’s life consisteth not in abundance of the things which he possesseth.”  And He spake a parable unto them saying, “The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully.  And he thought within himself saying, ‘What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits.’  And he said, ‘This I will do.  I will pull down my barns and build greater and there I will bestow all my fruits and my goods.’  And I will say to my soul, ‘Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years.  Take thine ease.  Eat, drink and be merry.’  But God said unto him, ‘Fool. This night thy soul shall be required of thee.  Then whose shall those things be which thou hast provided?’  So is he that layeth up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”

The lesson provided by Jesus in the parable is perfectly clear. The treasures that we “lay up” for ourselves are meaningless. The treasures that have value are those that are laid up for God. If our treasures are not “rich toward God,” we will be considered a “fool,” and the Lord may very well “require” our soul “this very night.”

Jesus gave us a warning in the parable: So is he that layeth up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.

Once you are out of debt, you are able to minister to those in need in a greater manner without the burden of “death’s grip” put on you by lenders.  Your Love and joy increase.  Where your treasure is so is your heart.

Are your words stout against THE LORD?  Do you truly walk in “the fear of THE LORD”?

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Malachi chapter 3:

13 ​​“Your words have been stout (harsh) against Me,”

​​Says the LORD,

​​“Yet you say,

​‘​What have we spoken against You?’

14 ​​You have said,

​‘​It is useless to serve God;

​​What profit is it that we have kept His ordinance,

​​And that we have walked as mourners

​​Before the LORD of hosts?

15 ​​So now we call the proud blessed,

​​For those who do wickedness are raised up;

​​They even tempt God and go free.’ ”

These people are living on “borrowed” time and little do they realize their judgment will come forth… swiftly.  However, there is another group that FATHER mentions:

16 ​​Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another,

​​And the LORD listened and heard them;

​​So a book of remembrance was written before Him

​​For those who fear the LORD

​​And who meditate on His Name.

​

17 ​​“They shall be Mine,” says the LORD of hosts,

​​“On the day that I make them My jewels.

​​And I will spare them

​​As a man spares his own son who serves him.”

18 ​​Then you shall again discern

​​Between the righteous and the wicked,

​​Between one who serves God

​​And one who does not serve Him.

As for me and my wife, we desire to be one of His jewels!  Prior to these statements that differentiate the two groups, FATHER brings up giving:

8 ​​“Will a man rob God?

​​Yet you have robbed Me!

​​But you say,

​‘​In what way have we robbed You?’

​​In tithes and offerings.

9 ​​You are cursed with a curse,

​​For you have robbed Me,

​​Even this whole nation.

10 ​​Bring all the tithes into the storehouse,

​​That there may be food in My house,

​​And test Me now in this,”

​​Says the LORD of hosts,

​​“If I will not open for you the windows of heaven

​​And pour out for you such blessing

​​That there will not be room enough to receive it.

​

11 ​​“And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes,

​​So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground,

​​Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,”

​​Says the LORD of hosts;

12 ​​And all nations will call you blessed,

​​For you will be a delightful land,”

​​Says the LORD of hosts.

This is the only place in Scripture where FATHER challenges us to “test” Him.  You can be assured that HE will not fail HIS test.  Will you fail yours?

In chapter 4, FATHER continues concerning the two groups: judgment versus blessing.

1 “For behold, the day is coming,

​​Burning like an oven,

​​And all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble.

​​And the day which is coming shall burn them up,”

​​Says the LORD of hosts,

​​“That will leave them neither root nor branch.

2 ​​But to you who fear My Name

​​The Sun of Righteousness shall arise

​​With healing in His wings;

​​And you shall go out

​​And grow fat like stall-fed calves.

3 ​​You shall trample the wicked,

​​For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet

​​On the day that I do this,”

​​Says the LORD of hosts.

Will you be in the Book of Remembrance?

Life and its fullness await our understanding.  If you want to walk in Love and joy, give.  Lay up Heavenly treasures.

Super-abundant joy overflows when we walk in an act of extravagant generosity.  How generous was Jesus when He gave Himself for all of mankind!  None were excluded from His willingness to give so are we ready to step up in our own ability to meet the needs of others?  It is all about submitting to The Holy Spirit to discern what to give and to whom.  I don’t give to every beggar on the corner holding up a sign.  Neither did Jesus.  He walked past many who could have been healed such as those who were at the pool of Bethesda.

Jesus spoke in John chapter 5:

1 After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches. 3 In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water. 4 For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and stirred up the water; then whoever stepped in first, after the stirring of the water, was made well of whatever disease he had.

5 Now a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, “Do you want to be made well?”

7 The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me.”

8 Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your bed and walk.” 9 And immediately the man was made well, took up his bed, and walked.

Why didn’t Jesus heal all who were close to the pool?  He was directed by FATHER and only that man was healed.  We are to be the same way in our walk.  Ours is not to reason why.  We should act and give only as directed by The Holy Spirit.  However when He says to give, give and our joy will be full!

Paul addresses this issue when believers were experiencing a season of severe difficulty.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Corinthians chapter 8:

2  For even during a season of severe difficulty and tremendous suffering, they became even more filled with joy. From the depths of their extreme poverty, super-abundant joy overflowed into an act of extravagant generosity.

3 For I can verify that they spontaneously gave, not only according to their means but far beyond what they could afford.

4 They actually begged us for the privilege of sharing in this ministry of giving to God’s holy people who are living in poverty. 5 They exceeded our expectations by first dedicating themselves fully to the Lord and then to us, according to God’s pleasure.

6 That is why we appealed to Titus, since he was the one who got you started and encouraged you to give, so he could help you complete this generous undertaking on your behalf. 7 You do well and excel in every respect—in unstoppable faith, in powerful preaching, in revelation knowledge, in your passionate devotion, and in sharing the Love we have shown to you. So make sure that you also excel in grace-filled generosity.

One of the principals where we distribute the food and clothing cards wrote yesterday to us, “I can’t tell you how much we appreciate your generosity with the cards.”

8 I’m not saying this as though I were issuing an order but to stir you to greater Love by mentioning the enthusiasm of the Macedonians as a challenge to you. 9 For you have experienced the extravagant grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that although He was infinitely rich, he impoverished himself for our sake, so that by his poverty, we could become rich beyond measure.

10 So here are my thoughts concerning this matter, and it’s in your best interests. Since you made such a good start last year, both in the grace of giving and in your longing to give, 11 you should finish what you started. You were so eager in your intentions to give, so go do it. Finish this act of worship according to your ability to give. 12 For if the intention and desire are there,

the size of the gift doesn’t matter. Your gift is fully acceptable to God according to what you have, not what you don’t have.

13 I’m not saying this in order to ease someone else’s load by overloading you, but as a matter of fair balance. 14 Your surplus could meet their need, and their abundance may one day meet your need. This equal sharing of abundance will mean a fair balance. 15 As it is written:

The one who gathered much didn’t have too much, and the one who gathered little didn’t have too little.  TPT

Paul was directly taught by Our Lord Jesus Christ, not by man.  He spent much time in the 3^rd Heaven and received an abundance of revelation directly from Our Lord.  This revelation was to provide us with 2/3rds of the New Testament and he did not hold back on the topic of giving.  He knew the issue of fear in men’s hearts concerning giving of their resources.  Deep down inside, most are afraid of running out of resources for their own survival.  Others want to leave an inheritance to those who may or may not deploy the inheritance in a righteous manner.  As for me and my wife, we will lay up treasures in Heaven according to our cheerful giving with what we have been blessed with by FATHER.

I have no interest in making anyone feel guilty about not giving.  Only cheerful giving will receive an abundance anyway.  This is about leading those who truly want to achieve full maturity as Sons of GOD and this path is narrow thus I don’t expect many to actually find this path.  However, I have a responsibility to lead those whose hearts are drawn to this narrow path.  Why do you think that I continue to write virtually every day?  FATHER supplies our needs in abundance thus allowing us to expand our giving. 

Servias continues to pay no salaries and at the same time we have expanded the giving to the poor, especially the Kids in need.  In addition, we are funding the publishing of a new book titled “The Combined Gospels of Love” written by my close friend.  It is being edited now.  It combines all four Gospels into one writing that is in chronological order so that we will easily see multiple facets of Our Lord Jesus Christ as we read.  My Beloved Brother adds commentary to provide additional understanding as given to him by The Holy Spirit.  This work is one aspect of spreading the Gospel.  What a blessing to be a part of this!  FATHER will reward those who share in funding this work.

Luke 12:13-21And one of the company said unto Him, “Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.”  And He said unto him, “Man, who made Me a judge or a divider over you?”  And He said unto them, “Take heed and beware of covetousness for a man’s life consisteth not in abundance of the things which he possesseth.”  And He spake a parable unto them saying, “The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully.  And he thought within himself saying, ‘What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits.’  And he said, ‘This I will do.  I will pull down my barns and build greater and there I will bestow all my fruits and my goods.’  And I will say to my soul, ‘Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years.  Take thine ease.  Eat, drink and be merry.’  But God said unto him, ‘Fool. This night thy soul shall be required of thee.  Then whose shall those things be which thou hast provided?’  So is he that layeth up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”

The lesson provided by Jesus in the parable is perfectly clear. The treasures that we “lay up” for ourselves are meaningless. The treasures that have value are those that are laid up for God. If our treasures are not “rich toward God,” we will be considered a “fool,” and the Lord may very well “require” our soul “this very night.”

We should pay close attention to the Words of Jesus!
