TRUST & OBEY

TRUST & OBEY,   “WORTH CONSIDERING”     11/6/19   (Across my desk this morning.)

My Thoughts:
This is right on time for me.  With this property we are in the final stages of completion with the last building.  There is yet much to do.  Off grid solar system,  complete the 4th bathroom,  weed garden beds and plant,  sort boxes from move to keep or dump.   And much much more.  But I have a bad case of arthritis now in my feet and can not find good help to get all of this stuff done.  So today’s message is for me to just TRUST & OBEY and it is not any easier to do at 87.  The vision is to make a space for someone or a married couple who is spiritually centered and can and loves to do this kind of stuff and would like to live in Hawaii.  A board and room work/trade if you will.  But so far, the folks that have come have been temporary and get their feet on the ground and then tend to move on.  So be in prayer for us that we find the right people to help make this place sing as a bright witness for our Lord Jesus Christ.

Seems to me that a big train load of bad choices is screaming down the tracks to a dead end for this nation for there are no more tracks laid.   The politicians have been kicking the debt can down the road now for a long time.  About 50 years ago we allowed our moral and Godly value system to be destroyed in our schools,  which is the backbone of our country.   And without this backbone of conscience we now have generations of children growing up who have found their conscience by the use of video games and T.V. and such.   So we are in deep need of a seriously powerful time of revival in the Holy Spirit so that the world can again see Christ Jesus.  Eph.4:11-16:  ^“11 And His gifts were [varied; He Himself appointed and gave men to us] some to be apostles (special messengers), some prophets (inspired preachers and expounders), some evangelists (preachers of the Gospel, traveling missionaries), some pastors (shepherds of His flock) and teachers.¹² His intention was the perfecting and the full equipping of the saints (His consecrated people), [that they should do] the work of ministering toward building up Christ’s body (the church),¹³ [That it might develop] until we all attain oneness in the faith and in the comprehension of the [^[a]full and accurate] knowledge of the Son of God, that [we might arrive] at really mature manhood (the completeness of personality which is nothing less than the standard height of Christ’s own perfection), the measure of the stature of the fullness of the Christ and the completeness found in Him.¹⁴ So then, we may no longer be children, tossed [like ships] to and fro between chance gusts of teaching and wavering with every changing wind of doctrine, [the prey of] the cunning and cleverness of ^[b]unscrupulous men, [gamblers engaged] in every shifting form of trickery in inventing errors to mislead.¹⁵ Rather, let our lives lovingly ^[c]express truth [in all things, speaking truly, dealing truly, living truly]. Enfolded in love, let us grow up in every way and in all things into Him Who is the Head, [even] Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).¹⁶ For because of Him the whole body (the church, in all its various parts), closely joined and firmly knit together by the joints and ligaments with which it is supplied, when each part [with power adapted to its need] is working properly [in all its functions], grows to full maturity, building itself up in love.”  So please study this scripture and pray for it to happen…

Yours, in His great love,  Ken<><  www.Trinity-Aloha.org   (Check our HomePage for many helpful links.)

Today’s debt-based money system is destroying our nation from within, like a fiscal cancer. Sadly, we’ve allowed our leaders to heap trillions in new debt upon future generations.  Prov. 22:7  The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.  The ideal is to get out of debt and live within our means.
