From the rising of the sun to its setting let the Name of the LORD be praised. Psalm 113:3

Wig’s Word of God Today 7-5-2012

Healed in Community by faith.

“The Law of the LORD is Perfect, refreshing the soul. The Decree of the LORD is Trustworthy, giving Wisdom to the Simple. Psalm 19:8

When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Courage, child, your sins are forgiven.” Matthew 9:2b

Amos 7:10-17, Psalm 19 & Matthew 9:1-8

I heard a Pastor say, “Community is what gives us faith.” Meaning the people around you make living in a “community” the faith that drives your love of God instead of living for self from pride and envy finding faith in possessions void many times of forgiveness. Your community lifts you up as we pray and care for each other’s needs in the LORD. We all know the Law of the LORD is perfect yet we try and add some sort of description of our own ideals or purpose. Joined in community guided by God’s Word we find explanation, encouragement and energy to exercise our enjoyment of His Will setting us straight from selfish purpose.

The outpouring of prayers and concern for our son’s recovery from a car accident from our “worldwide” community has been such a boost to our energy we barely notice we haven’t slept more than a few hours each night. It is the faith we feel from our community that allows us to lessen our fear of daily proclamation of Christ’s Eternal Forgiveness allowing us to bring more souls to His Kingdom. I see it ubiquitously in a Truth we must step out and share with anyone, anytime and anywhere.

During the July 4th Rally for Religious Freedom put on by South Florida Conservative Editor Marcos Sendon, many people I didn’t know approached me to let me know they have been praying for me in my desire to live God’s Will to take our Founding Father’s and Mother’s ideals of faith, hope and love back to Washington in my bid to send an “Everyday Ordinary American” to serve our community with zeal for His Truth in Congress.

These men and women are just many extraordinary examples of true community lifting up unknown souls to God’s Eternal Purpose of faith and charity. Our purpose is to live in His Community of Faith by explanation, encouragement and energy to exercise our enjoyment of His Will setting us straight from selfish purpose. When Jesus sees your faith, does He see the community working in you? I pray the community of America binds together to find His Purpose in faith, hope and love. Live you faith in community and be healed by His Eternal Love of Forgiveness. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today to find community in everything we do to accomplish faith, hope and love for Your Glory LORD. We pray Julian does not need a trachea tube and his breathing, renal and liver problems are healed. We pray for the Prayer Soldiers of the world. We pray for the USA as we approach our country’s elections. We pray for peace, strength and courage to live our faith in You. We pray for the NC Emmaus Team preparation. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

God Bless His Truth for America,

Romans 8:28

“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed”

Glorification of God’s faith to repeat– Matthew 9:1-8

A man entered the house by community

Each holding on to his stretcher of faith

Jesus said your sins are forgiven

Stand up and walk to state

I am not a blasphemer but Authority

By God’s Own Hand I forgive

Scribes evil thoughts are mindless

Lacking surrender to God’s Will to live

The Son of Man forgives by His Father

Rise and go home to your family to greet

God’s Purpose in community faith forming

Glorification of God’s faith to repeat

Freedom of Religion our society must defend.

Seek good and not evil, that you may live; Then truly the LORD, the God of hosts, will be with you as you claim. Amos 5:14

They were so savage that no one could travel by that road. Matthew 8:28d

Amos 5:14-15, 21-24, Psalm 50 & Matthew 8:28-34

We claim a day in history that seals our abilities to pray and worship in openness. It is our day of Freedom that is modeled the world around because it centers on the fundamental right to worship God anywhere, anytime and by anyone. What’s so amazing to me about this day of Freedom is that we have celebrated it 236 years without any type of internal problems of takeovers or coops demonstrating our ability to truly have majority to rule through civil procedures where the government of the people allowed all Americans to pursue financial desires of God’s Will.

I know in my heart a majority of Americans are believers in God and they act on their lives with God as their guide. Our Founding Fathers and Mothers sought to “seek good and not evil” claiming the Good Book as their escort. They arrived at the shores of America in search of freedom from oppression living as Christians for the Common Good of all people.

While it is a day of Independence for us as Americans, it is the Interdependence Day my wife and I choose to get married on. It is the day we said we would honor and cherish each other until death do us part. It is much like the responsibility I feel about being an American for we must stand up and see our country back to the majority as faithful God-fearing Americans who will not stand for our civil and religious freedoms to be trashed by a secular movement of self, lust and greed.

Blessed John Paul II shared with all people of America in Baltimore, MD on October 8, 1995 the following call to action to defend the freedom that aches in America’s soul. “The challenge facing you, dear friends, is to increase people’s awareness of the importance of Religious Freedom for society; to defend that freedom against those who would take religion out of the public domain and establish secularism as America’s official faith.”

Will you stand up with me and help take our future back from secular greed and decadent immorality? Pray with me to find this strength to see our country through for ALL generations to come. Amen.

In prayer we ask: Dear LORD, we pray today to seek good and not evil. We pray for the United States of America to find its roots in the Truth our Religious Freedoms were founded upon. We are praying for Julian’s complete healing of body, mind and spirit. We pray for all children and families in need. We pray a prayer of thanksgiving for all Prayer Warriors. We pray for the NC Emmaus. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

God Bless His Truth for America,

Romans 8:28

“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed”

Lifelong Commitment Presumed- America’s Official Faith

The USA was founded by people from Truth

People wanting freedom from spiritual abuse

To escape the confrontation of a rope and a noose

Their necks eager to find the land of honey as proof

They came and prayed for God to help them stand

As their lives grew so did the help from His Hands

The Freedom to choose has always been a fan

Of Freedom to live and take proof of God’s Land

The public domain is ruled by the majority thoughts

Of men and women who know what God eternally taught

In America it has and always will be the official faith

Religious Freedom defending the society from hate

It is a Sacrament of Matrimony

The Eternal Wine consumed

Special anointed Truth

Lifelong Commitment Presumed

Are you blessed to believe what you can’t see?

Through Him the whole structure is held together and grows into a temple sacred in the LORD; in Him you also are being built together into a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. Ephesians 2:21-22

Then He said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and see My hands, and bring your hand and put it into My side, and do not be unbelieving, but believe.” John 20:27

Ephesians 2:19-22, Psalm 117 & John 20:24-29

The whole structure of God’s Glorious prayer circles are being built up by you and me as we carefully live our lives to see His Truth bear witness in our walk across this great planet. Paul carefully taught “you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the Holy Ones and members of the Household of God, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus Himself as the Capstone.” Ephesians 2:19-20

We have become a part of God’s Temple allowing our lives to be His dwelling place to live in His Spirit joyfully sharing the splendor of His Truth. We become believers leaving our doubts behind just as Thomas did when he stuck his hand in Christ’s side. How often during the day to call out to God by saying “My LORD and My God?” “Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.” To believe without seeing sums up the word faith driving our lives to strengthen the capstone of God’s Eternal House in Heaven. Your apostleship lays the mortar of Truth abiding in His Word. Amen.

In prayer we ask: Dear LORD, we pray today to live our lives as an example of the Holy Ones. We pray for Julian’s surgery this morning. We pray for the Payer Warriors across the world. We pray for my children starting new chapters in their lives. We pray for the NJ Emmaus Team and NC Emmaus Team. We pray for strength to accomplish Your Will LORD. My LORD and My God, save us from our fatigue. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

God Bless His Truth for America,

Three to One makes Thrice to Believe- prayer of thanks for all Prayer Warriors

Thank you my friend in Christ

I’m glad and happy God’s Will is seen Thrice

Placed together as servants of He

We learned to share Truth so readily

I find His Comfort Glorious to say

I want nothing more than to communicate His Way

For in the end we find His Truth

Nothing to borrow and everything to lose

A cup over floweth in Grace of Christ

Where His Will covers me snuggly by knowing Them Thrice

TT to some may seem eager to relieve

Three to One makes Thrice to Believe

To Follow beyond every demand.

Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go. Matthew 8:19b

Amos 2:6-10, 13-16, Psalm 50 & Matthew 8:18-22

We learn the difficulty of saying “yes” to Christ above every demand we ever place on ourselves today when Jesus tells a Scribe who asks to follow Him wherever He goes, “Foxes have dens and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to rest His head.” Matthew 8:20 This reality of serving Christ means roughing it was a normal day-to-day occurrence is then pounded into our subconscious by Jesus when He tells another who exclaims, “LORD, Let me first bury my father” as Jesus retorts “Follow me, and let the dead bury their dead.”

This demand by Jesus points to the Authority given to Him that overrides what both the Jewish and the Hellenistic world regarded as a filial obligation of the highest importance. The word “filial” is a virtue of respect for one’s parents and ancestors that obligated you to carry out the final order of laying a parent to rest. Jesus is explaining by this statement that following Him allows the spiritually dead (those who do not follow) bury their physically dead. No matter what situation you find yourself in, when you place God First you allow His Graces to flow in honorable proportions throughout every aspect of your being. In a sense, you are saying to Christ, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.” Amen.

I love to witness Christ’s passion in complete strangers allowing me to interject the beauty of anyone praying to our God in the public’s eye. In fact, I pray people will begin to see the importance of giving “thanks” to God openly in public encourages the revision of values, truths and principals our dear land was formed by. I met a couple yesterday in a restaurant that was praying over their meal and I commented how beautiful it was to see their open adoration of God. They were young and energetic giving permission to the discussion of our LORD being more important than anything else. They were placing “God First” and confidently displaying the “Swagger of Truth.” God Bless ‘em for loving our Savior so much. Thank God they follow Jesus above every demand. Amen.

In prayer we ask, Dear LORD, we pray today to follow when the road gets rough. We pray to swallow the pills of dust. We pray to gather to teach people to trust. We pray to abstain from Satan’s ugly fuss. We pray for our son Julian as he is operated on today. We pray for strength as the parents who resoundly stay by his side in the hospital no matter where he may lay. We pray the fatigue never waivers our Trust in You each day. We pray for the prayer warriors worldwide who pray for the unknown child to stay. We pray for the new job to comes Terry’s way. We pray to love Jesus each and every way. In His Precious Name we dare to say. Amen.

God Bless His Truth for America,

Mask Removed eliminates Control–In honor of Carlos Andres Chase-Ramirez

I was raised as an elite

Brought to my knees by fate

Controlled to homeless to make

Life’s torments to taste

My mask is in layers of control

As rose pedals relate to sow

Covering the shame to stand and grow

Alone in God’s Holy fate to know

Turning to His Word I sought

Open forgiveness proven not bought

Cleansed by wisdom’s Psalm forgot

The 51^st song of Spirit’s magical lot

Willing or unwilling to be

Your parents are handed by He

Not knowing what I’ll see

Removing the mask setting me free

Your daughter has died; why trouble the Teacher any longer? Matthew 5:35c

Wisdom 1:13-15; 2:23-24 Psalm 30, 2 Corinthians 8:7, 9, 13-15 & Mark 5:21-43

The thought of giving up on anything life has to offer lacks the faith God instills in your soul to live for His Purpose. We shadow the love God created us in to brush away the fog of every adversity or trial. We trouble the teacher in prayer for He delivers miracles in the midst of every trial or tribulation. This feeling is not boisterous, prideful living or an “I told you so” type of delivery, it simply means living God’s Will with passion, poise and permanence striving to share as much as enjoy the Purpose God calls mankind to fulfill.

I overheard someone say my stepson Julian might not make it as my wife and I prayed on our knees with hands held high as the serious life-saving skills of nurses and doctors worked to sustain his life brought back by the paddles of electric juice. We prayed aloud our acceptance of His Divine Will asking for mercy to see His creation smile another day. We believed what Jesus said to the synagogue official, “Do not be afraid; just have faith.” He took the child by the hand and said to her, “Talitha koum,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, arise!” The girl, a child of twelve, arose immediately and walked around.” Mark 5:36b, 41-42

We believed Julian would rise but embrace the fright of losing Him to God’s Eternal Kingdom. We acknowledge this not as giving up but rather pursuing the Truth of living God’s Will. In community, we have found countless prayers of support and encouragement, love and laughter, peace and purpose much of the same I feel for each of you. One of these people wrote a piece about living life in a beautiful way I have titled “LORD, oh LORD.” I pray it will touch your heart as it has us. We can’t give up on God’s Will, can we? We must live for Him He Who gives us life. Amen.

Dear God, we pray today we never give up on anything Your Will guides us to live. We pray Julian will survive this critical stage in his recovery. We pray for the surgical work left to be done to help him heal. We pray the unknown broken bones are minor and heal with Your Hand of Truth. We pray for us as we battle fatigue. We pray for Carlos Andres Chase-Ramirez and his intentions. I love you Brother Carlos. Prayer of thanksgiving for the Prayer Warriors across the world. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Romans 8:28

“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed“

LORD, Oh LORD-Written by Carlos Andres Chase-Ramirez (just don’t pronounce Ramirez like they do in Baltimore.. good grief…)

LORD, oh LORD of Love and Mercy,

I call in You, for I am in need,

LORD grant me the strength,

to bear the sting of the fruit,

that life is serving me.

Forsake me not in this dark hour.

Hold on to me, Oh LORD!

Remember where You once found me.

In the darkness, be my compass, be my star,

guide me through, Oh LORD, one more time.

LORD I once laid broken,

a shell of a man,

believing not in myself,

trusting no creature, no man.

Blessed Father, and then you came,

from the gutters of the world, LORD, You rescued me,

and my life before You I laid.

You rose me LORD from the shadows,

You healed my bleeding wounds,

You showered me with Your Mercy,

so I could be born anew.

LORD oh LORD, my son here now lays,

clinging to the Life You so graciously gave.

Remember oh LORD, the call of Your Son,

whom rose from the dead to save this sinners life.

And as Your Son rose, oh LORD,

and as you have risen me,

Rise my son, Holy Father,

bestow upon him the blessings you have given me.

I give You all Father,

In You I trust,

LORD, for Your glory, I hand to You my son.

Be it your will Father,

Just one word,

Let my son’s life be,

a living testimony,

to the Power of Your Word and Works.

And LORD, oh LORD,

when in Your time my son shall speak,

I shall cry out to You,

and sing of Your praises to the proud

and to the meek.

And LORD, oh LORD,

when in your time my son shall walk,

LORD to the world I shall serve,

as witness to your flock.

Wherever the road leads oh LORD,

Let Your Will be done forevermore.

Let our hearts rejoice and praise

The wondrous glory of our God,

forever and one day more.

My life, is Yours!

My heart is Yours!

My soul is Yours!

Your will is good, Oh LORD, Your will is good.

Up, cry out in the night-time as each watch begins! Pour your heart out like water in Yahweh’s presence! Raise your hands to Him for the lives of your children. Lamentations 2:19a

LORD, I am not worthy to have you enter under my roof; only say the Word and my servant will be healed. Matthew 8:8b

Lamentations 2:2, 10-14, 18-19, Psalm 74 & Matthew 8:5-17

The amazing life we have to live is all too fragile for in an instant someone can be severely injured struggling to stay alive after being brought back from the Netherworld for a second chance at life. Today we eagerly call out to God and Lament for the healing of my wife’s oldest son Julian who was in a severe car accident yesterday afternoon leaving him bleeding internally causing him to die and be brought back to life on the cold table of an operating room.

By the time we had heard, Julian had made his way back to life struggling to stay alive in the ICU amidst constant confusion and torment for us as parents as we frantically rushed to the hospital twenty miles away. What do you do when your child lays dying from injuries suffered in a car accident? You pray and you keep praying calling out to God on your knees with hands held high. You call every person you know to pray and see the prayer chain of God’s Truth begin to gather steam until you feel the tremble of prayers shake the very hospital bed your child struggles to live on.

You ask God to heal them while calling out to God to embrace His Will regardless of the unknown outcome. You cry. You laugh. A million thoughts shatter your brain into sights of never ending joy. A baby crawling. A son laughing. Last night I witnessed a miracle. Our child was dead yet he fights this morning opening his eyes during the night trying to talk through the tube that kept him alive. He lives this morning because of your prayers. He is in critical condition but he lives because you acted and God hears the prayers of His faithful.

Please don’t stop praying. He rests in the miracles of God above by the prayers of our worried hearts. In our practice of learning the LORD’s Truth, we must live His Will with complete confidence leaning on the ways of community in prayer to accomplish the miracles of prophesy in faith, hope and love. We must trust when the trusting is the hardest. We must pray the prayers of the faithful through open doors of critical care units to allow our children to hear the faith of our souls. Please pray with me now and often today for Julian.

Heavenly Father, we pray today for the miracles You create for our son Julian and his precious life to live as we honor You LORD. We pray a prayer of thanksgiving for the people who have been praying for Julian. LORD we thank You. We pray for Juan Menendez who I wrote the poem for today. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

The End of My Fear’s Increase- In honor of Juan Menendez

Hardest thing for my ground

Sounds easier than normally found

Trusting God in love’s proof sound

Extraordinary grace eternally abound

I wanted more to vividly see

My true identity to always be

Devil handling my choice in me

No tears of feelings to laughingly agree

I wondered where my feelings escape

My sister’s death was no escape

No change in me to literally take

I was lost in self to constantly relate

Karma is my shaken belief

Wrong will follow who seek

In right will I know to treat

God’s love will always repeat

Let go and let God to cease

Surrendered each day in heavenly peace

Christ my trust’s ordinary release

The end of my fears increase

You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God. Matthew 16:16b

I will give you the Keys of the kingdom of Heaven: whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven; whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Matthew 16:19

Acts 12:1-11, Psalm  34, Second Timothy 4:6-8, 17-18 & Matthew 16:13-19

After asking the Disciples who people think Jesus is, Jesus admits He is the Christ, the absolute Son of God, meaning He is both Messiah and Son of the Living God. Jesus’ response attributes the confession to a divine revelation granted to Peter alone and makes him the Rock on which Jesus will build His Church and the Disciple whose authority in the church on earth will be confirmed in heaven, i.e., by God. Here we find the reason Christ instilled all Power over the Church to Peter as the Foundation of “Christ’s Body” we still worship in today.

Peter has been handed the “Keys to Heaven” conferring upon him the intimate eternal connection between God, Heaven and himself allowing for the cherished details of Christ’s Church to be developed, maintained and celebrated each and every day by consuming Christ’s instituted “Host of Angels; His Body of Heaven and earth.” We celebrate this every day in the Mass allowing us to take part of the Heavenly Food of Christ’s Body, Soul and Divinity. He is the Only Way to Enter the Narrow Gate we long to see eternally, the Heaven we look to live in here on earth.

Ultimately, the Church established the joys Christ wanted us to celebrate here on earth to draw our faith, hope and love from. We are taught to practice by reading our Bible everyday. We are taught to pray unceasingly over everything we think, speak about or act upon. (I know, that’s a tough one.) Finally, we are taught to preach and proclaim with confidence allowing the Holy Spirit to direct our every word. Today, I will share the Nicene Creed, which is our profession of faith. The belief God’s Only Son was the Savior of the world allowing our sins to be forgiven. Do you believe?

“I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of Heaven and earth,

of all things visible and invisible. I believe in One LORD Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, True God from True God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through Him all things were made. For us men and for our Salvation He came down from Heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake He was Crucified under Pontius Pilate, He suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into Heaven and is seated at the Right Hand of the Father. He will come again in Glory to judge the living and the dead and His kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the LORD, the Giver of Life, Who proceeds from the Father and the Son, Who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, Who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.”

In prayer we ask: Dear LORD, we pray today we can live up to Your Word to accomplish all for Your Glory. We pray for the miracles Your Word instills in our hearts to be Children of God. We pray for the NC Emmaus Team preparation. We pray for our children. We pray for knowledge to learn, we pray for Grace to help and we for pray for strength to proclaim. We pray for Juan Cruz, my 92-year-old father-in-law who I wrote the poem about below. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

What is your string reminder for God?

Everyone who listens to these Words of Mine and acts on them will be like a sensible man who built his house on Rock. Matthew 7:24

Second Kings 24:8-17, Psalm 79 & Matthew 7:21-29

How do you know when you are acting on the Word of God? Can you prepare your day in His Truth to accomplish the Will of God in all things by a certainty in the thoughts, actions and deeds of every step you will take to be one in Words you read aloud to yourself every morning, noon and night? I remember as a kid I used to tie a string to my finger to remind me to accomplish this or that but I never spent time in God’s Word to read, learn or act on anything but my own selfish desires.

This past weekend I was standing around talking to a fellow veteran who heard me explain why I say, “I love You” to my wife whenever the numbers four, three or seven come up on a clock. It was 4:03 PM and I looked at him explaining the time, love, seven-in-heaven connection as I said aloud, “It’s 4:03 Toni, I love you.” Looking at my new Brother in Christ, John, I exclaimed, “It’s 4:03 John, I love you!”

I mention this because John gave me something before I left without realizing the meaning his gift would have in the coming days as I feel the spirit of two men I’m praying for resound in the pulse coming from the bracelet John imparted on me as a Christ-like memento of our Emmaus weekend together. It sort of feels like an adult type string wrapped around my wrist to remind of God’s Word, His Holy Spirit and His Son’s Redemption.

Without knowing it, John created a prayer reminder token I find hard to take off. I’ve prayed for them both, the veteran who made it for John, Colt, and John non-stop for his friendship in Christ’s Holy Name. Acting on God’s Word brings about faith, hope and love to live in His Joyful Purpose. There becomes a sensible feeling of Truth to eliminate the fear of death longing instead for the Sacred Embrace of Christ. Do you listen to the Word of God and act for His Purpose? What is your string reminder for God? Whose life can be changed by a bracelet?

Dear God, we pray today we act on Your Word as we remind ourselves to live for Your Truth. We pray today for my mom’s Joanne’s surgery be guided by Your Hand LORD. We pray for NC Emmaus Team- it’s 5:31 and I love you all. We pray for our friends, children and the unknown soul needing Your Truth. We pray for guidance for Your Glory LORD. We pray for Tom Stilley who I wrote then edited today’s poem below. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Communication of heart to say

God’s True love to proudly display

The Foundation of Prayer I eternally crave

Dad questioned his answered prayer

My strength in God I eagerly dare

My weekend guided my obvious scare

To Eulogize my dad in Christ’s fashion fair

Prayer is all the help I need

Overwhelmed in prayer to eternally feed

Capable of faith void of greed

I opened my eyes to what prayer can do

Renewed Covenant gains Your Cup of Fruits that Runneth Over.

The king then, standing on the dais, bound himself by the Covenant before Yahweh, to follow Yahweh, to keep His Commandments, Decrees and Laws with all his heart and soul, and to carry out the terms of the Covenant as written in this book. All the people pledged their allegiance to the Covenant. Second Kings 23:3

By their fruits you will know them. Matthew 7:16a

Second Kings 22:8-13; 23:1-3, Psalm 119 & Matthew 7:15-20

We all have to follow the laws of the land but when there comes a time that the law goes against our moral understanding of our Sacred beliefs, then we must come together to exult our accepted wisdom, actions and abilities to overcome the tyranny of secular oppression. King Josiah was just a young boy of eight-years -old when he was crowned king but his reign lasted thirty-one years in Jerusalem because it was recorded he walked in the ways of the LORD mimicking his father David. “He did what was right in the LORD’s sight, walking in the way of David his father, not turning right or left.” Second Kings 22:2

Many Biblical scholars believe the book found during the appointed tidying up of the House of the LORD ordered by King Josiah was probably an early edition of material now found in the Book of Deuteronomy. The “Book of the Law” described God’s Covenant essentially the Ten Commandments as instructed by God to Moses. The King “renewed” the Covenant of obeying the rules. It seems understandable but someone always has to break the rules to accomplish their selfish needs.

I can only imagine what God must be thinking now as His people run from one place to another seemingly racing across the earth to fulfill the most selfish desires of lust, greed and gluttony. How long will the LORD wait to launch His Wrath seems too many times to be an ignored question as we witness the destruction of moral responsibility, honorable living and honest love.

Jesus reminds us we are accountable by the fruit we have grown into and easily described as a sweet fruit or a rotten fruit to better the living of the Will of God. Over the years, I have heard different stories of people renewing or in many cases beginning their Covenant with the LORD. You can look back on their life and see such destruction of morals by a lifestyle filled with lust, greed and gluttony until one day they have a revelation that changes their life forever.

Yesterday as I talked with my father and his old friend, I recalled mine as I often do during the day of it being an Angelic moment in my life while my father’s friend was an Easter Morning Service in 1981. I was just 19 at the time and my father’s friend was almost 50. His surrender that day left booze, carousing and sin behind in an instant and as he described to me yesterday “his cup runneth over” sharing a witness that is filled with God’s Spirit of Truth. He has grown into a man of faith, hope and love because he accepted Jesus into his heart and has lived his life completely for him.

You can check out Ray Wood’s story as and embedded video in the movie “Courageous” called the “Story of My Father.” You can also take a look at the You Tube introduction here at http://youtu.be/v9D_WEFN2GA. Will you renew your Covenant with the LORD and live a life with a cup that “runneth over?” I pray we as Americans face up to this Truth soon. Amen.

In prayer we ask: Dear LORD, we pray today for a “renewal” of the Covenant You LORD instilled in our ancestors regains our lives of faith, hope and love. We pray today for the fire of Truth to keep our souls on fire for Your Glory. We pray for the NC Emmaus Team preparation. We pray for Ray Woods and his work to bring more souls to Your Kingdom. We pray for the health of a friend of my mom’s named Joanne. We pray for Ed Beck and the poem I wrote for him below. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

God Bless His Truth for America,

Romans 8:28

“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed“

By Service we can learn to Forgive- in Tribute to Ed Beck

In the call to come

I accept no matter what

Maybe clean toilets to start

In Christ I’d clean with heart

Ashamed of a past I hate

I need full surrender to relate

Christ’s love my eternal fate

I do love God in faith

In days of anger and fear

I forgot Mass so dear

Ignoring my commitment in tears

Walls I crawled over to peer

We seek service to live

Christ’s Redemption to give

God never makes me relive

By service we can learn to forgive

Wig’s Word of God Today 6-26-2012

A Remnant Value instilled by God’s Sabaoth.

Let all the kingdoms of the world know that You alone are God, Yahweh. Second Kings 19:19e

A remnant will issue. Yahweh Sabaoth’s jealous love will accomplish this. Second Kings 19:31a-b

Do to others whatever you would have them do to you. Matthew 7:12a

Second Kings 19:9-36, Psalm 48 & Matthew 7:6, 12-14

If you take the word Sabaoth and research it, you will find it means the plural form of “host” or “army.” I would be willing to guess most of us have armies encamped against us all over the place. Armies that are hidden as well as evident in daily a battle we deal with every way possible known to man. We deal with them by smoking. We deal with them by yelling in anger and disrespect. We may deal with them by abusing alcohol and drugs. Fighting our demons is a process of free will acknowledging our denying the belief in God’s Truth. The true belief we can surrender “anything” to Him and Him alone.

When King Hezekiah (what a cool name.) heard he was about to be attacked, He yelled out to God as the leader asking for God to show the world He is God and God Alone. The Yahweh of Humanity’s Idol many people search for in the lure of evil’s flash and flair distracts us today from living a devoted life of faith, charity and love. Its mind-boggling tricks of colors steals our “mojo” of surrender. The self-confidence that allows us to practice, pray and preach for the Glory of God the Father. We can’t hide it if we truly surrender to eliminating the dye of crimson’s fiend from every aspect of our life shielding it from our lineage spores.

It is up to our “Free will” of surrender to live in “God’s Will” of Redemption. Today we are faced more than ever the obvious need to seek out the “Remnant” values our Founding Father’s instilled in the hearts of all Americans to learn and respect the ideas of Religious Freedom. It is a battle our Founding Fathers instilled in all Americans to never create but we are now faced with now.

Their Remnant thoughts, actions and deeds are written into the chemical makeup of all manuscripts ever written here in our country labeled the “Land of the Free.”  A Constitution that gave us a Freedom that is being jeopardized if we as the majority don’t wake up and be a nation of believers who act always to receive the God-given right of Religious Freedom instilled America’s Lineage Evolution.

We all know the broad gate leads to destruction as we have witnessed the broad destruction of our family’s core. The respect our nation built with honesty, service and love has been replaced with deceit, greed and lust. Somehow, someway, we must steer our thoughts, actions and deeds back to the joy of living in Truth. Let us pray my new Emmaus Brothers can find this “Opus Dei” type of feeling every moment of our lives. Opus Dei which means “Work of God” literally translates in the belief that everyday ordinary men and women like you and me can be holy by performing our daily duties with a Christian spirit. Today we celebrate the life of Saint Josemaria Escriva de Balaguer who is the founder of Opus Dei’s surrender of living a life of Christ to accomplish God’s Will. Let us use our Remnant Spirit to create our own armies of love and prayer to drive humanity back to the Narrow Gate of God’s Kingdom. Amen!

Let us pray: Dear God, we pray today to find Your strength to create our own armies of love and prayer to regain our remnant attitude of God’s Holy Truth. We pray for the NJ Emmaus Men and new brothers of Christ’s Divine love to live in this Remnant Spirit of Your Truth to always find faith, hope and love. We continue our prayers for the NC Emmaus Team preparation. We pray for our families, friends and people in need. We pray for Izzy and the poem I wrote for him below. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

God Bless His Truth for America,

Romans 8:28

“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed“

A Disciple of Christ to set people Free- In respect for Izzy M.

The prayer of Jabaez

Opened his talk to feel

God granted him his request

Void of evil in God’s Meal

No knew knowledge to seek

Family and friends to reap

Listening all without grief

Sharing void of Satan’s thief

How do I listen?

Where is He?

Jesus’ wet tears we search

Amongst you everywhere to be

Open your arms to family

Find friends who believe

Spiritual leaders in Truth

Open your heart and soul to conceive

A Disciple of Christ to set people Free
