Luke 12:48b-49 ~ Require. What does the LORD require of you?

Thursday, April 21, 2016

What would you do if a letter arrived for you, a parchment that care had obviously given to. The contents were the Book of Life: direction for your best and highest purpose.

Would you read this letter each day or save this for once a week, month, yearly?

The Amazing and Wondrous Works of the Lord are always unbelievable,

intertwined with the ordinary, 

and then with periods of doubt we could call lag time. 

The events conclude the same way for multitudes and multitudes. In the Valley of Decision.


We have this opportunity each day to send a letter to our Eternal Home. Our heart, our time in conversational prayer. The deeds we do. The apologies we make.

What is the purpose of your life?

Luke 12:48b-49

Everyone to whom much was given, 

of him much will be required, 

and from him to whom they entrusted much, 

they will demand the more.

49 "I came to cast fire on the earth, 

and would that it were already kindled!

Micah 6:8

He has showed you, O man, 

what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? 

To act justly 

and 

to love mercy 

and 

to walk humbly with your God.

Malachi 3:10

Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, 

that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," 

says the LORD Almighty, 

"and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of Heaven 

and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room

 enough to store it."

Now, here is a thought. If the purpose of life is to be the Prodigal Son returning Home to the Father..., what is the Tithe? We shall not play around with Tithes like Cain and Able.

Malachi 3

9"You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing Me, the whole nation of you! 10"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so 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 a blessing until it overflows. 

11"Then I will rebuke the devourer for you, 

so that it will not destroy the fruits of the ground; 

nor will your vine in the field cast its grapes," 

says the LORD of Hosts 

What will forgiveness do? Free us of burdens.

 Not all horses are meant to be ridden, and yet we can see the journey with joy.


10 lepers were healed, one returned to Give, Give, Give Thanks to Jesus.
10 Virgins, 5 kept oil to keep the Light burning bright.

We shall do the work God gives to mankind - to believe.

We shall be keepers of the Light of Christ.

John 8:12

"I am the light of the world:

 he that follows Me shall not walk in darkness,

 but shall have the Light of Life."

Abba, Father,

Father, we hope for Your grace and favor in Your sight, 

Bless us when we carry and proclaim 

the Light of Jesus in all mankind, 

we are pleasing to You.

We believe You are the Living God. 

We believe, no good thing do You withhold from those who walk uprightly. 

We believe daily in the Glory of Your Word 

and Will.

We will long for Your counsel and Your Will, to have those we love - praise Your Glory!

We believe, Your Word of Truth,

We are sealed with the Promises of the Holy Spirit.

With Your Help, we will believe, daily keeping Your Light in us.

With Your Help, we will rejoice in the Light of Life.

With Your Help, 

we will look to the Windows of Heaven in our life 

and see a blessing overflow 

believing all things work together 

for those who Love You.

With Your Help for ourselves and the ones we love, 

our prayer concerns. 

We will act justly

 and to love mercy

 and to walk humbly with You, our God.

You are our guarantee. 

For ourselves and the ones we Love. 

In the Highest Name of Jesus, we are covered. 

Amen to Your Glory!

Our God is working. His Son, 

Jesus is working.

In Jesus,

Amen.
