Look Alive Soldiers!
As members of a unified body; most things should be in synchronicity.
Although life differs for each of us; the journey holds the same destiny (Eternal Life). Whether or not that eternity is damnation or salvation, it is up to us.
There are some more things that hold similarity along this the journey. They are seed, time, harvest, obedience, asking, seeking, knocking, and prayer & fasting.
Seed:🌱 🌰
the beginning or the opening up of Time and that, which consists therein
For every seedling planted, there is also the expectancy of its arrival (transformation)——For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting (Galatians 6:8).
——And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel (Genesis 3:15)
——Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ (Galatians 3:16)
——Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God (Luke 8:11)
Time: ⏲️
With each day we’re given, there’s perseverance towards the next, never having taken for granted of the former. Time definitely stands still for no one, so take heed as to how it’s appropriated——I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work. (Ecclesiastes 3:17).
“And that, knowing the time, that now [it is] high time to awake out of sleep: for now [is] our salvation nearer than when we believed”——Romans 13:11
Harvest: 🌾🌼🌳: 
The exposure of experiences resultant of our cultivation (growth). This is what’s brought forth from diligence, obedience, sacrifice or even rebellious sowing. The spiritual harvest is always plentiful in abundance and blessings——He becomes poor that deals with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent makes rich. He that gathers in summer is a wise son: but he that sleeps in harvest is a son that causes shame. Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covers the mouth of the wicked (Proverbs 10:4-6).
——” For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold, now [is] the accepted time; behold, now [is] the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2)
Obedience:👂& 🙉🙈🙊:
Hear & Do…it’s that simple, at least to say it, it is. However, it’s difficult sometimes to do right things in the presence of wrong actions and those of others. Yet, we must not allow room for distractions or hindrance on our course. We must continue to increase our faith, strengthening our patience thru the hearing of the word of God. We fall off sometimes with our studying, but if we diligently seek him via our studying; He’ll write His law on our hearts. This way we are never far from it. To obey means to come under submission/subjection to or humbling of ourselves in front of ethereal righteousness, doing and/or adhering to God’s will over our own——For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous (Romans 5:19).
Asking ❔❓:
Ask but at the same time Believe everything we’re asking and be thankful and always expecting the answer. The HOLY GHOST is here to present us with all truths necessary to our pilgrimage thru life. This epic journey thru life will definitely present us with examinations or things, with which to catechize with the FATHER being the sole & soul of whom when we inquire; will not withhold information but is yet, forthcoming. Always be mindful and careful about what is asked because when you ask and whatsoever you ask, you shall receive. Always remember that when we pray prayers of petitions (asking for and of) the MOST HIGH, to both ready & conscious of the inevitable positioning or arranging of us us to receive THAT answer via GIVING. To whom much is given, much is required——Luke 12:48, so if we anticipate the giving of the LORD per our request, petition and/or asking; we most definitely need to be aware of what the MOST HIGH will require of us to receive THAT answer———-with a full understanding that HIS thoughts and ways aren’t like ours——Isaiah 55:8-9; he is able to do exceeding abundantly above what’s asked——Ephesians 3:20-21. HE requires us to do justly, love mercy (forgiveness, sympathy, compassion, grace, tolerance, liberality and/or charity and magnanimity); and to walk humbly with our God——He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God (Micah 6:8)?
We have to be aware of the angels unawares (strangers) that may be strategically placed before us to test the wills of our GIVING, concerning our and their supply of abundance. 2 Corinthians 8:12-14
Seeking: 👀👀📜:
Always strive to see the inward vision, but also knowing that provision supersedes what’s ahead…look earnestly——But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul (Deuteronomy 4:29).
——”But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33)
——”But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way” (1 Corinthians 12:31)
Knock: 🚪🔐🔒🔓:
To knock implies we need something opened for us in this life. Maybe it’s something inside of us or perhaps outside of ourselves, but rest assured there is only one Supreme key master——Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me (Revelation 3:20).
——Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened (Matthew 7:7-8)
Prayer: 🤲🙏📿⛪:
Simply stated, this is one of the most successful operations of diligence towards prosperity. This is the most profound communication we have with the MOST HIGH about EVERYTHING & ANYTHING we want, need, or desire to disclose and/or to inquire——Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak (Matthew 26:41).
——Then hear thou in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause (1 Kings 8:45)
——Pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
——I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day (2 Timothy 1:3)
Fasting:🚫⛔
The power of abstinence is the greatest test of wills. We teach our mind, body, and spirit how to reflect, reject, let go or postpone access to and/or of certain unhealthy people, places, and especially of unrighteous things——Howbeit this kind goes not out but by prayer and fasting (Matthew 17:21)
May we often remember that the bravest steps taken are those moving forward—Moving forward past lessons via trials by faith; some involving hurt, guilt, shame and/or blame…yet all via forgiveness.
We Fought a Good Fight & Kept the Faith…
Faith has helped us thru tragedy or perhaps some of the gravest moments of our life’s course.
- We didn’t think we’d make it this far, things didn’t look bright looking ahead (futuristic) but we persevered.
- We thought the loss was all we could take or deal l with at the time, but we pressed onward.
- We didn’t know how to convey or exude love, but patience became a ethereal virtue of instructions, showing us just who and what LOVE is, and its functionality. Thereby teaching us via wisdom, the very quintessential essences of stepping forward to LOVE.
#LoveHarder
May we grow together in power, love, and soundness of mind. May we move forward towards liberty beyond the turbulent debris along our pathways. May we love in unison the life we’ve been given, being grateful for the vessel of the Most High GOD’S choosing. Trusting that in creation, there are no mistakes, just food for the soul and rest for the old.
