Sometimes I have thought to unburden my soul. I realize this is not for everyone, but I do not know that perhaps it may be of use to someone. The command to come out of the world, to escape Babylon, is a real command. Too often this command is slighted, and too often the terrible effects of Babylon are seen among those who ought to be Saints! You wonder why you have such a difficult time in following the Lord, and in seeking His face, yet this is easily seen. It is because you seek the world, with all it's worldly blessings. Seek no more the world. Seek no more to partake of her evils. Because you seek after pride, vanity, their acceptance, their accolades, you place these things between you and your God, and therefore can never get your heart to be faithful to Father.
You wonder why you struggle all your life, and never seem to get comfortable. You struggle because your hearts are not truly set upon Father. You covet the things of the world, drugs, alcohol, coffee, tea, caffeine, sugars, and other stimulants, depressants, and medications, etc. Because you covet Babylonian fashions, music, mannerisms, heritage, and cultures, you suffer the consequences of these things.
Give up your claim on the world. Seek no more after the cultural heritage of your people. Set your hearts upon the Lord. Gather with the Saints, and build up Zion! Never again put your hand to the plow for Babylon. Organize yourselves as a family, as the Family of God! Do not argue, do not covet, do not seek for a higher position. Instead be meek, be humble, be helpful, be industrious in caring for each other!
Give to each other more than you give to yourself. Do not take, but contribute willingly and in abundance. Do not look for fault in each other. Do not notice the person who is not doing what they are supposed to be doing, instead seek Yeshua Messiah. Be the perfect example of Yeshua, so you may gain His Holy presence. For it is in the being, that He will call you to Himself, and embrace you in your humility!
Being like Him, copying Him, imitating Him, reflecting Him, doing as He would do, this is the Way. This is the Only way! Do not compromise, not even a little. Be happy, be helpful, spread goodness, spread kindness, carry each other's sins. Freely ye have received, freely give. Be the Saviour!
Beautifully said and written. Thank you for this reminder.
