Take your Vendettas to the Cross
In modern crusades people sacrifice Security, Livelihood or Limb to make up for misfortune. When mayhem strikes folks sell to the highest bidder. Old folks used to say Money talks and Cow Dung folds when peering into the eye of an avenger. I’d like to share a new way to secure your borders through His Living Words at the Foundation-of-Salvation, Christ’s cross. Pursue an occupation that pleases God, if you forfeit an Extremity be it for the good of His church.
It takes extreme courage to Nail-a-Gauntlet to the Cross; modern day believers are subject to all types of Ridicule and Dangerous thugs. Many cover themselves with a false sense of security; and rarely seek the Sanctuary of our Lord’s Tabernacle, let alone the Love-of-God. Ironically our Lord’s petition to God on the night of His betrayal is how desperate souls can Crossover from Worldliness to Godliness.
He came home. Again [the] crowd gathered, making it impossible for them even to eat. When his relatives heard of this they set out to seize him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.” The scribes who had come from Jerusalem said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and “By the prince of demons he drives out demons.”
Summoning them, he began to speak to them in parables, “How can Satan drive out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand; that is the end of him. But no one can enter a strong man’s house to plunder his property unless he first ties up the strong man. Then he can plunder his house.
Amen, I say to you, all sins and all blasphemies that people utter will be forgiven them. But whoever blasphemes against the holy Spirit will never have forgiveness, but is guilty of an everlasting sin.” For they had said, “He has an unclean spirit.”
His mother and his brothers arrived. Standing outside they sent word to him and called him. A crowd seated around him told him, “Your mother and your brothers [and your sisters] are outside asking for you.” But he said to them in reply, “Who are my mother and [my] brothers?” And looking around at those seated in the circle he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. [For] whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother.” (Mark 3:20-35 NABRE)
I recommend a Fast from friends and Family in favor of Biblical-Outreach; try praying on Hallowed-Ground with forehead to the ground and a Sacred Bible at arm’s reach. Then ask the Holy Spirit to Sanctify your Petition with God’s word that will flow forth in Scripture. Christ is the living word that Sanctifies a humble Body, Mind and Sole; consecrated are those who Believe!
