Many layers of short stories have been told about the power of the spirit realm. The gospel of Jesus Christ tells of HIS birth, death, and resurrection.
Our belief in this story has power to save the world. A world full of unelected governments the people never asked for or wanted. Run by males with an omega manhood who considers themselves alpha. With words on their hats that read, “mark on my forehead.” Failing to acknowledge their mistakes being their biggest mistake of all. Bringing the world closer to unprecedented danger.
May the church of God unfold the layers, drink from the golden chalice of God’s Word, and push back the expansion of evil influence. With our light, we shall eclipse the increasing darkness of this world. Our mindset will drive and not obstruct movement towards a better world; this is the power of the church. The Word of God gives us hope, which expands the possibilities for a better future.
HE will provide for those HE guides. With God, our heart will always have a companion and HE is our support upon which to lean, and we are never alone. We only have this one life, serve God and humanity.
No more countless thoughts and walks without beginning or end, ripping apart our universe like a vortex of unyielding motion. There has been too much time lost to misunderstanding. We are approaching a time at which we will have made earth uninhabitable for humanity.
As long as the going was easy, we all were easy going. We have too many big things to do, to be distracted by small ones. Everyone who lives a life in Christ will have trials, yet we are in a better place despite our tribulations.
Remember to forgive to heal and let go to grow. The choice of forgiveness is a personal one; it sometimes goes against our natural instinct. The constant pull of what’s going in the opposite direction of truth is a sign to detach. Let go of people who choose to drag us through the mire for their own satisfaction.
There are so many layers to Scripture and reading it reveals the helper we were sent by God, the Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 28:1-14) Tells us of the many blessings we receive for our obedience to HIS Word. No afflictions or adversaries can reach us when we follow HIS commands. (Luke 6:44) Tells us that we are recognized by our own fruits. (Proverbs 24:8) Tell us about those who plot evil.
For a good life, obedience to God is not an option. AMEN

Blessings for Obedience
28 “If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. 2 All these blessings will come on you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God:
3 You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.
4 The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.
5 Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed.
6 You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.
7 The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.
8 The Lord will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.
9 The Lord will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in obedience to him. 10 Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they will fear you. 11 The Lord will grant you abundant prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground—in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you.
12 The Lord will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none.13 The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom. 14 Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them.”
Deuteronomy 28:1-14
King James Version
28 “And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:
2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.
3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.
5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store.
6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.
7 The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.
8 The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
9 The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways.
10 And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the Lord; and they shall be afraid of thee.
11 And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
12 The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.
13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:
14 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.”

28 “ “If you fully obey all of these commandments of the Lord your God, the laws I am declaring to you today, God will transform you into the greatest nation in the world. 2-6 These are the blessings that will come upon you:
Blessings in the city, Blessings in the field; Many children, Ample crops, Large flocks and herds; Blessings of fruit and bread; Blessings when you come in,
Blessings when you go out.
7 “The Lord will defeat your enemies before you; they will march out together against you but scatter before you in seven directions! 8 The Lord will bless you with good crops and healthy cattle, and prosper everything you do when you arrive in the land the Lord your God is giving you. 9 He will change you into a holy people dedicated to himself; this he has promised to do if you will only obey him and walk in his ways. 10 All the nations in the world shall see that you belong to the Lord, and they will stand in awe.
11 “The Lord will give you an abundance of good things in the land, just as he promised: many children, many cattle, and abundant crops. 12 He will open to you his wonderful treasury of rain in the heavens, to give you fine crops every season. He will bless everything you do; and you shall lend to many nations, but shall not borrow from them. 13 If you will only listen and obey the commandments of the Lord your God that I am giving you today, he will make you the head and not the tail, and you shall always have the upper hand. 14 But each of these blessings depends on your not turning aside in any way from the laws I have given you; and you must never worship other gods.”
