What does it look like to be secularized?

The name of Jesus Christ is banned from the public square!

What does it look like to be secularized?

The Holy divine word of God is marginalized, minimized, and rationalized.

What does it look like to be secularized?

When our God’s Holy ways, the Holy commandments, and His word

are mocked, denied, and not lived out through our ultimate source

the power of the Cross of Jesus Christ.

What does it look like to be secularized?

We separate ourselves from Christ and live like the world and not like Jesus did!

For such a time as this, Children of the Heavenly King, may we take a stand

like Daniel, Esther, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, Joseph, Elijah and

refuse to bend our knee to anything or anyone but Jesus Christ our Lord!

What does it look to be secularized precious church of Jesus Christ?

I think we are sadly there! And I think our Savior, weeps!

May our Triune God be our greatest hope.

May our Triune God be our true trusted

respite for our minds, hearts and souls!

May our Triune God be our mighty fortress.

May our Triune God be our treasured delight.

May our Triune God  always be our top priority.

May our Triune Godm filled with only light,keep us

on the trusted,truest, and joy filled straight and narrow way.

For He alone is the blessed, most precious omnipotent

omniscient, omnipresent author of all our days!

No one can condemn us

brothers and sisters

of the King of Kings,

for we stand upon

solid ground,

Jesus Christ

our Lord!

ffFor Christ did not please Himself [gave no thought to His own interests]; but, as it is written, The reproaches and abuses of those who reproached and abused you fell on Me.

Romans 15:3 (Amplified)

I wonder if they really

knew the Christian’s heart,

would they really have thrown

the enemies insidious darts?

I often times wonder why

so many darts, do you?

It was then I heard the voice

of our triumphant God say,

“Yes child until the end of the ages

there will always be a battle  between

light and darkness for the enemy

is out to lie, kill and destroy the

kingdom heart in His servants of grace.

Remain strong in the Lord and in the

power of His might child of grace.

Stay the course child of grace and remain

faithful and true and your Triune, victorious,

triumphant, God will see you though.”

When humanity makes sport of trying to bring reproach upon

the righteous who are the apple of His eye who are royally redeemed

and bought by the precious blood of Jesus Christ, fear not

royally redeemed Child of the most high King of Kings,

fear not the reproach or the insults of mortal men,

ahhh for this is truly when our God brings Godly and divinely sent

retribution and reproach upon anyone who would harm or try to

destroy a Child of the one and only true and living God!

This is when our God sends treasures of wisdom, grace,

forgiveness and love to the Child of the one and only most High God!

For Christ is our ultimate warrior, our redeemer, our defender,

our friend, and He is perfectly faithful oh so very faithful and

perfectly loyal and promises to  walk with us no matter how 

difficult the earthly journey ,no matter how difficult the eternal test,

no matter how difficult the insults ,the reproaches, the shame

keep on keeping on Child of the most High God!

keep on keeping on for great is your reward in Heaven,

keep on keeping on for this world is not our home!

Fill us with the brilliant, loving, gracious,

humble all sufficiency of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Empty of us of self, willful pride, arrogant

self-sufficiency or  the heinous darkened,

demonic sin of seeing or calling righteousness

evil or evil, good!Fill us with the brilliant, loving,

gracious all sufficiency of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Center
our hearts,
our lives,
our minds,
on thee
Oh Lord
so all that
is not
like thee
divinely
melts away
like a newly
fallen snow
warmed by
our Creator’s
gift of beauty
from the rays
of His Heavenly sun!
Center us
on thee
Oh Lord!

May we only seek
the sole approval
from our precious
Lord of Lords
Savior, Redeemer
and friend,for
there is no
earthly praise
that will ever
compare to the
divine approval
of our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ,King of Kings
Redeemer, Messiah,
the one and only
Great I Am!

May Jesus Christ
alone be on the
the throne of
our hearts!

May the very person of Jesus Christ,
Himself living in our hearts and lives
and the precious and priceless living
words of our most Holy God be the riches
that we prize and value most of all!

Every time
we have become
a self-righteous
judge and jury
forgive us Lord!

Every time we have
been to busy or
too preoccupied
to notice a tear,
a wound, a hurt
within or without,
and don’t have time
to see, notice,
comfort, talk
pray or take action
forgive us Lord!

Every time we want
more than we really
need, forgive us Lord!

Every time we make
ourselves look better
and others worse,
forgive us Lord!

Every time our
perspective
benefits only
ourselves and
not others
forgive us Lord!

Every time
we minimize
the worth of
a precious soul
to our God and
and don’t make
the time to share
the glorious
gospel news,
forgive us Lord!

Every time we
make someone
elses sin look
heinous but
refuse to see
our own sin as
just as heinous
to a just and
Holy God,
forgive us Lord!

Every time
we proclaim
our own legalistic
righteousness
rather than
claiming the
righteousness we
only have through
our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ
forgive us Lord!

Every time we
grieve the heart
of our Father God,
of our precious Savior,
of our blessed Comforter within
because of the log that is in our eyes
because of our sins,forgive us Lord.

Every time we
see someone in
need and turn
the other way
forgive us Lord!

Every time we
we judge another
unfairly, harshly,
cruelly, maliciously,
forgive us Lord!
Open our hearts,
that you have made new
with the Spirit’s power,
to really see and live
out the power the Cross
to really see and live
out the power of His
forgiveness and love
and to refuse to be
any other way than
to love,honor, obey,
and give grace for we
are all sinful paupers
in need of God’s tender
love, care, and majestic grace!

Every time, forgive us Lord!
Forgive us Lord, every time!
