Part One of The Bad Man

Habakkuk 1:7-13

"[The Chaldeans] are terrible and dreadful; their justice and dignity proceed [only] from themselves.

Their horses also are swifter than leopards and are fiercer than the evening wolves, and their horsemen spread themselves and press on proudly; yes, their horsemen come from afar; they fly like an eagle that hastens to devour.

They all come for violence; their faces turn eagerly forward, and they gather prisoners together like sand.

They scoff at kings, and rulers are a derision to them; they ridicule every stronghold, for they heap up dust [for earth mounds] and take it.

Then they sweep by like a wind and pass on, and they load themselves with guilt, [as do all men] whose own power is their god.

Are not You from everlasting, O Lord my God, my Holy One? We shall not die. O Lord, You have appointed [the Chaldean] to execute [Your] judgment, and You, O Rock, have established him for chastisement and correction.

You are of purer eyes than to behold evil and can not look [inactively] upon injustice. Why then do You look upon the plunderer? Why are you silent when the wicked one destroys him who is more righteous than [the Chaldean oppressor] is?"

The man of God here, is living in the days of The Caldean bad men. They were killing and destroying nations of people. He ask God, Who has Pure Eyes, "How can You be inactive with injustice?"

He is sick of all the tragedy. How like our day...

Being Persuaded

John 13:19

"I tell you this now before it occurs, so that when it does take place you may be persuaded and believe that I am He [Who I say I am—the Christ, the Anointed One, the Messiah]."

Jesus told them then, ahead of time about Himself... He Is Telling us now, about What He Has done, Is Doing, will always want to do.

A Man and His Foe

Matthew 10:31-36

"Fear not, then; you are of more value than many sparrows.

Therefore, everyone who acknowledges Me before men and confesses Me [out of a state of oneness with Me], I will also acknowledge him before My Father Who is in heaven andconfess [that I am abiding in] him.

But whoever denies and disowns Me before men, I also will deny and disown him before My Father Who is in heaven.

Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

For I have come to part asunder a man from his father, and a daughter from her mother, and anewly married wife from her mother-in-law—

And a man’s foes will be they of his own household."

I am wanting to paint free hand a picture that a plant friend posted. I knew it was there grounds and their secret garden place. I wanted to capture the feeling of how proud they are of the "Beauty of Peace."

I believe here in Matthews 10:31-36; Jesus was wanting His people, (all souls belong to Him) to have a Oneness life with Him and The Father. By living in harmony, as They Do, and being in agreement, as They Are, you can know when others around you are your enemy. But not fearing of what they may say are subatoge your "Secret Garden" Place in Him.

Word To The Wise

Ecclesiastes 9:18

"Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good."

Wisdom Speaks to us now By The Spirit. He Is Saying..." I Am Is Coming." Being Ready for an event that only The Spirit and The Father Knows when It Happens, Is what is wise. But, to keep on sinning when all the known signs are in the Sky, on The Earth, is like having in your hand a stick, and a hurricane is coming for you.

Present Heavens

2 Peter 3:7

"But by the same word the present heavens and earth have been stored up (reserved) for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly people."

Our loved ones who were Born of God through accepting Jesus Christ as God Come in The Flesh, and dewelled among us, is In The Present heavens with Christ now. He has reserved Fire for the next wipe out done, like in Noah's day had a water wipe out.

But For Your Sins You Were Sold

Isaiah 50:1-3

Isaiah 50

​THUS SAYS the Lord: Where is the bill of your mother’s divorce with which I put her away, O Israel? Or which of My creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities you were sold, and for your transgressions was your mother put away.

Why, when I came, was there no man? When I called, why was there no one to answer? Is My hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a desert; their fish stink because there is no water, and they die of thirst.

I clothe the heavens with [the] blackness [of murky storm clouds], and I make sackcloth [of mourning] their covering.

This Way Is To Suceed

Acts 20:32-35

"And now [brethren], I commit you to God [I deposit you in His charge, entrusting you to His protection and care]. And I commend you to the Word of His grace [to the commands and counsels and promises of His unmerited favor]. It is able to build you up and to give you [your rightful] inheritance among all God’s set-apart ones (those consecrated, purified, and transformed of soul).

I coveted no man’s silver or gold or [costly] garments.

You yourselves know personally that these hands ministered to my own needs and those [of the persons] who were with me.

In everything I have pointed out to you [by example] that, by working diligently in this manner, we ought to assist the weak, being mindful of the words of the Lord Jesus, how He Himself said, It is more blessed (makes one happier and more to be envied) to give than to receive."

Jesus...Is The Way To Suceed! 

By Example He Showed us an excellent way! By Working a long side His people He taught..."Hands On..." Learning. 

We need people, but we need to work for their good, not against their strengths.

We need Power, but our testimony of overcoming is that power. Paul said; "I covet no man's silver or gold..." Just, to show Christ as Lord, and my Lord...Is what Paul is saying is successful.
