Adoring Dispense


Who is equal to the sovereign Lord and what oblation of obeisance is not due Him?

The thundering and cataclysmic devastation of all that we know would simply be the faintest whisper of His power. His reach extends to the farthest corners of an unending universe. There is no escape from His gaze and no limit to His mighty and terrible power ... and no measure capable against the expanse of His unfailing love for it is without limit...

His justice towers over the unjust and the wicked as an object of impending terror and date of recompense, yet His mercies are extended to the guilty submissive to Him in repentance and redemption. As the origin of all that is just, He offers the freedom of choice even to future destiny. If any perish, it is through their freedom to choose it...

He reigns above all that exists and stands high over the heavens in unequaled power and glory, yet has the heart of humility to suffer exquisitely in the quest to redeem what is so unworthy. He suffers heart breaking injustice at the hand of His own creation in a search for true beauty - His quest to find what He treasures... sincere love, freely offered...

He is the father of all fathers to those who choose to be His true children. His counsel and correction are the joy and treasure of those who call Him Abba in truth. His wisdom followed becomes their crown of honor and unperishing wealth under the audience of the heavens. They will not be disappointed and their hearts' desire will ever be for Him...

He is blameless and perfect in His ways and wisdom. His compassion is toward the powerless, the humbly broken and those who suffer others' misused freedom to choose. He will take an accounting and exact justice against the injustices they have suffered in the day of reckoning and will lift them up. He is the rescuing savior of all that are His children ...

In His omnipotent power He speaks what He will and His perspective is the truth of what exists before men without question. Only fools speak against Him or challenge His decrees for it is in the face of His compensation toward their own spoken destiny. He will stand before all men and the host of heaven to defend His reputation against them...

But for those of spirit kindred to His own, He will hold them close on that day. They will see Him with adoring eyes and fellowship with Him throughout endless time. Their tears will be wiped away and all they have suffered in their journey will be counted as nothing against the day of their reunion with Him in the indescribable glory of His presence...

Stars may fall and the earth collapse to be rolled up like a scroll, but their contentment and joy will never be diminished in their wondrous inheritance through His unearned grace. Far beyond the reaches of harm and in the presence of overwhelming glory devoid of sin, peace will finally reign and the desiring spirits of men be at graceful rest...

Oh Lord, indeed you are good! It is forever my loving joy to echo the truth of your own declaration - that You are God and there is no one like You.

What If...

"For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.  And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. "  Hebrews 4:12-13 (NKJ) I'm not one who appreciates the stoking of fear for the sake of it or unnecessarily. There are enough things in this life to keep people concerned and even constantly fearful if they subscribe to them. I would like though, to take a moment to encourage my brothers and sisters in Christ and any others who will take a little time to read this and give it some serious consideration because the subject has real   potential  consequences and there's still time to address any issues that we find upon reflection... If you were made aware that   sometime in the next hour  your life on earth was ...

Judging, Judgment And Judge...

"I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark. I will not judge those who hear me but don’t obey me, for I have come to save the world and not to judge it. But all who reject me and my message will be judged on the day of judgment by the truth I have spoken. I don’t speak on my own authority. The Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and how to say it. And I know his commands lead to eternal life; so I say whatever the Father tells me to say.” John 12:46-50 (NLT) A lot is said these days about "judging", but in the midst of that popular societal buzz and the assertive comments that come with that conversation, I have a question: If God has called something sin and we simply agree with what He's said,... are we judging or just repeating and declaring the truth? When He walked the earth, Jesus spoke about judging and He pointed out the danger of our judging...  “Do not judge other...

An Observance And Observing True Reality...

As Easter approaches, I begin once again considering how our God sees our observance of an occasion as I always do and also what He might truly desire of us in observance above any of our trivial, man inspired traditions . What I come away with in firm conviction is the understanding that the most trivial of my sins, the least of my crimes against God, had the power to forever damn me in His judgment of me and send me into unending torment. And that knowing this one thing in truth and as reality, is key to my correct posture before God in honor of His purpose in the event. That key being the horror of knowing that the price of my very least sin was the shedding of my Christ Jesus' blood and His horrible suffering, because the reality of this brings the deep rending of my heart in awe and gratitude and it makes possible my true joy at the relief of my sentence because of what He has done. I believe this is a part of what God would desire from us in observance of Christ's death a...
