THE PERILS OF FORGETTING GOD! In our busy work to map out, to make provisions for this earthly life, we have forgotten the ONE who is LIFE; namely, ALL MIGHTY GOD, THE FATHER OF ALL CREATION. In many instances, we have or think we have control of our own destiny--without HIS(Gods) input---and have brought to ourselves needless pains, grief and sorrows. We have mapped out our own human design for living. QUESTION: HOW CAN THE CREATED SURVIVE WITHOUT THE CREATOR? HOW CAN THE CLAY BE MOLDED WITHOUT THE POTTER? HOW CAN WE HAVE REAL PEACE WITHOUT THE TRUE PEACEMAKER, THE PRINCE OF PEACE? In our quest to make our own way, our own laws, we have forgotten or just disregarded the greatest LAWGIVER who ever was, is or ever will be--our HEAVENLY FATHER. We have rejected and forgotten HIS COMMANDMENTS(Exodus 20:1-25) and made our own in opposition to HIS; thus, putting ourselves in bondage to man-made rules, laws&rituals that are contrary to HIS spiritual, natural, physical and universal laws. We deny HIM access to and in our lives and hearts. We make our own decisions; yet we strive to be successful not knowing or if we know not believing that TRUE SUCCESS only comes through HIM. We deny HIM HIS RIGHT to have a say-so in the plans we make for ourselves and then cry when they fail. If we feel like doing, saying or being something, we ask HIM nothing about HIS WILL BE DONE, here to wit, we rush ownward under our own human steam(power) to do it, heaping to ourselves failure, disaster, and disappointnent as we struggle to prosper to have it all at any cost. But take note, how can we have it all if we give no reverence; no honor; no respect, no praise and no glory to the ONE who owns it all? For it is written, THE EARTH IS THE LORDS AND THE FULNESS THEREOF, THE WORLD AND THEY THAT DWELL THEREIN; FOR HE(not we) HATH FOUNDED AND ESTABLISHED IT. IT BELONGS TO HIM!!! THE GREAT DIVINE DESIGNER/CREATOR of the Universe and of Life has a purpose for each and every one of us and we can nit, neither ever will be who we should---HIS BEST--- if we continue to push HIM out of our lives. For it is written again, But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness(our efforts of goodness apart from HIM) are as filthy rags. Our best in and of itself is not good enough; it is only fit for vurning in the garbage heap of this finite world; unsuitable for now&for eternal salvation; it will not last when it is tried as gold and silver is in the HAND OF THE GREAT REFINER--ALL MIGHTY GOD, HIMSELF! In our attempts to make a living, we have forgotten how or never learned from GOD how to Live because we dont seek HIM in our decision-making on how to live! In our desire to love, we have forgotten the ONE who is the ONE SOURCE OF TRUE LOVE....THE GREATEST LOVER OF ALL.....: GOD WHO IS LOVE IN ITS PUREST& TRUEST FORM. OUR BUSYWORK SHOULD BE ABOUT GODS BUSINESS, for DID NOT JESUS THE MESSIAH, OUR SAVIOR&LORD SEEK TO &DO THE WORK OR BUSINESS OF THE ONE WHO SENT HIM---OUR HEAVENLY FATHER? As we look at the world today in its sin-ridden state, we see all the perils of forgetting and rejecting GODS influence in our lives.....very little joy! very little peace! and very little happiness. Many are sin-sick and refuse to acknowledge it because man has characterized his behavior of deviating from GODs Standards with his own terminology: psychosis, phobias, deficit disorders, schizophrenias, alternative behaviors&lifestyles, etc., etc.,& so on when infact for the majority these things are prevalent because of SIN: blatant, deliberate transgression/breaking of GODs eternal Laws, Statutes&Jugments. Our greatest deficit is denying God and casting HIS WILL for our lives to the wind! We try and continue to try to remove any thing connected to GOD from our lives but yet we expect His blessings! We deny HIS SON JESUS CHRIST&still expect things to go right! God is the loving, God of all Creation&HIS glory&honor only belongs to Him! Our human&spiritul purpose on this Earth is to honor&glorify God with our whole spirit, mind, soul&body: THE WHOLE DUTY OF MAN(of all of us as Gods Creation) is to fear(reverence) God and KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS(Ecclesiastes 12:13-14); and as we return to doing that duty under the Anointing of the burden-lifting, yoke-destroying power of the HOLY SPIRIT, all these perils we are plagued with will begin to vanish&eventually be non-existent. A whole-hearted return to GOD& Godliness will vanquish the power of evil and wickedness in our lives and our lands and every peril that arises or has already arisen to destroy us will be powerless....for as we return to God and receive HIS LOVE, we can then be all PEOPLE OF LOVE(1 Corinthians 13)...a World nation of peculiar people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a chosen generation where peace and goodwill toward all men is the dominant ruling power in the heart of every man and peril and sword will be of none effect because LOVE reigns SUPREME! ALL WILL KNOW GOD&KNOW LOVE&HAVE LOVE FOR ALL&SHOW IT BECAUSE GOD IS LOVE!!!!(2 Chronicles 7:14; 1 John 3:1-24; 1 John 1:1-9; Ephesians 4:1-32; Matthew 23:1-39; Psalms 37; Romans 1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6. GOD DESIRES NONE TO PERISH BUT IF WE CONTINUE TO REJECT HIS WILL, HE WILL NOT BE MOCKED, WHATEVER MEN SOW, THEY WILL ALSO REAP! A RETURN TO GOD &RIGHTEOUS LIVING WILL SAVE ALL& MAKE ANEW ...A NEW MINDSET...A NEW ATTITUDE ALL GEAR TOWARD THINGS OF GOD! A MUCH NEEDED REFORMATION...TRANSFORMATION& RESTORATION!!!
