Heart of the Wise

The Lamb is the Lion of Judah The Lamb of God that was slain  They didn’t know His spiritual identity They saw a carpenter, a commoner They saw a lamb—feeble, fragile, frail They saw quiet and muted mini-animal  They saw a man without connections They saw a fellow isolated from others  They saw a man abandoned by friends  They viewed a man without loved ones They saw a man deserted by disciples They saw a weak and vulnerable one  They saw an easy prey; they closed in They entered the trap that was set Those who set up had been set up They knew He had power with God They saw He had favor with God They heard Him speak God’s truth They saw Him express God’s love They deemed it a contradiction  They couldn’t comprehend Him They concluded He was a fraud They hoped that they were right They presumptuously slayed Him They framed and accused Him badly They were tools in the hands of Satan  They didn’t know what they were doing In their pride and hardness, they...

“The Law of Christ is Love.” Godly Love.  “God is Love.” Holy Love. Perfect Love. The above (in quotation) are biblical truth.  This kind of Love is the fruit of the Spirit of Christ and of the recreated or regenerated human spirit.   Truth, Justice and Mercy are attributes of this Love.  This Love is the Life and Walk in the Spirit of God. When we do things contrary to this Life (as we may sometimes do), we are acting out of character and the Holy Spirit of our Heavenly Father cautions and corrects us with His Truth, which are all done in Love. This is a core difference between man’s religiosity and God’s spirituality: the rich, real, relevant and robust ministry of the Holy Spirit of the Living God. Unlike most of the religious Pharisees back then in the early and earthly days of Jesus who knew the letter of the Law so well but didn’t have (and thus weren’t led by) the Spirit of God—because they were truly (spiritually) disconnected from God.  Death in its spi...

In the tapestry of Scripture, few contrasts shine as sharply as the lives of Deborah and Delilah—two women who walked the same era, yet carved destinies that could not be more different.  Their stories echo across generations as reminders of the profound power of influence and the enduring weight of character. Deborah stands tall in the pages of history—judge, prophetess, mother in Israel.  Under the shade of her palm, wisdom flowed like a river; leaders sought her counsel, and nations found clarity.  Anointed by God, she rose not by charm nor manipulation, but by divine conviction. Her voice stirred courage in the heart of Barak, her presence rallied a nation, and her obedience ushered in deliverance.  She lived yielded, purposeful, aligned—her legacy sealed in a victorious song that still reverberates through time. Delilah, by contrast, moved in another spirit.  Known for allure but devoid of divine anchor, she wielded influence not to uplift but to undo....

Intriguing topic, yes I know.  For a reason you will see soon. As you noted, it’s a shortened question not a statement of fact. So let’s start by asking it fully as a proper question: Does Satan care? Does he care if he tells you to sleep a little longer when you wake up to pray, when you are already well rested? Does he care about your health? Does he care if he reminds you of all your bills and pressing needs or quizzes you on why you want to give all of that tithe and offering? Does he care about your welfare? Does he care if he suggests to you that you need to get down with someone you’re not married to because you need physical or emotional intimacy? Does he really care about your emotional health? If he tells you to not forgive, or to not humble yourself and apologize, or to not give support of any kind that you are capable of, do you think he is protecting you, or helping you cultivate relationships, or doing you any good? If he convinces you to fight, downgrade, abandon or ...

PLEASE LISTEN TO THE GOSPEL God is Holy, Holy, Holy.  God created the Heaven and the Earth. God created Man to manage the Earth. All that God created was good.  God gave Man a commandment. Man sinned (disobeyed God's command).  This sin (disobedience or transgression of God's law of life) had great consequences. Man fell from Glory, from Divine Nature. Evil and wickedness entered the world.  The knowledge or experience of good and evil. To end this, God will destroy the present world. Sin ultimately resulted in Disease and Death.  Man, as created, was never to be ill or to die. Now, Man's physical body dies and his eternal soul is heading to everlasting damnation.  That's the bad news.  But the good news is that God had a solution.  God came as Man in the person of "Jesus". To pay the ultimate price of death that took the penalty of sin for His Bride, the Elect of God, thus revealing "The Father" in Love, in Grace. "Jesus Christ", God in hu...

A prophetic psalm  The Lord hides himself Yes, God amidst mortals Shows up as the unknown Came from humble home Lived as an ordinary man  Saw what men did to him  Malhanded their Creator Oblivious of spirit identity  They showed true indices The scope of their hearts So judgment can be just And justice determined  So the full scale is seen A cup takes all pouring  Till it is filled to the brim Then it overflows—spills Content not re-contained  Some trust in the chariots Some defined holy amiss Limited their applications Of what needs be holistic Blessed are the merciful  For they shall get mercy You who did show mercy You have given blessings Come into the light now To reveal yourself clearly  So yours will come to you Blessed be the Lord God Be blessed of the Lord 🙏
