Psalm 136: 1-4, 23-26
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good.
His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of gods.
His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords:
His love endures forever.
to him who alone does great wonders,
His love endures forever.
...
He remembered us in our low estate
His love endures forever.
and freed us from our enemies.
His love endures forever.
He gives food to every creature.
His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of heaven.
His love endures forever.

The measuring line and the plumb line frame our lives - their duration, their donation, and their legacy.

God's generosity and standard of giving are always and continually year round.

Supremacy of the Ph.D. (doctorate) is a lie, nothing but a breath.
Be humble and wise,
watch yourself and watch out for dogs
and for cats.

All whiteness is not purity, it's bi-form in nature (whitewashed tomb; brainwashed).

Questions that question evidence are embarrassing and pertinent.

Two opposite genders are the same way to represent equally and differently, humanity and completion.

We all are equally messed up, but our attitude to fix up the mess makes us great and makes the difference. This makes it again equally different (distinct, distinguished).

We must agree with our disagreements, but we must first consider God.

Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one;
for yours is the kingdom and the power
and the glory forever. Amen. Matthew 6:9-13

We receive strength to overcome the arrows of the tempter, in the name of Jesus.
Let any rod of the wicked rising against our family line be rendered impotent for our sake, in the name of Jesus.
Lord Jesus, walk back into every second of our lives and deliver us, where we need deliverance, heal us where we need healing, transform us where we need transformation.
Let the brush of the Lord scrub out every dirtiness in our spiritual pipes, in the name of Jesus.
O Lord, glue us together where we are opposed to ourselves.

The pattern of A = B is the same as A + x = B + x. It is the pattern of the same principle of equality.
We are equally different, distinct, distinguished of the same kind, of the same and unique Creator God Almighty.
Therefore, human beings are equally in the imagine and resemblance of God Almighty.
We are equally (such and such or so and so).
We are all equally accountable, responsible, evil, and good.

Multiplying by n equals adding together or regrouping n times.

Our Adamic nature is blasphemous and problematic.
Our Abrahamic nature is emblematic and faith-based.
Our nature of Christ is redemptive and holy.

Rectitude is the attitude to be right.
Righteous is the way to be right.
Righteousness is the fullness to be upright.

Patience is not submission, but strength that brings perfect success and complete victory.

Comparison is with reason, but not a reason
Equality determines identity, but it expresses also difference.

Reason prevails for a sound mind.
Faith is more than a conqueror for our destiny.

We kneel--and all about us seems to lower;
We rise--and all, the distant and the near,
Stands forth in sunny outline, brave and clear.
We kneel, how weak! We rise, how full of power! (p. 21)
Goll, J.W., (1999). Kneeling on the Promises, Grand Rapids, MI: Chosen Books.

"But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of him. For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. To the one we are the smell of death; to the other, the fragrance of life. And who is equal to such a task?" 2 Corinthians 2:14-16

No consideration is out of God's ordinances and order.
All children are equal at birth as are all aging people at old age.
Men and women of all nations and continents are all equally accountable to God Almighty.
We all matter.
Love, faith, hope, destiny, and dreams all matter.
Forgiveness and repentance with deeds matter.
Wisdom, knowledge, and understanding matter.
Water, blood, and life matter.

Altitude affects attitude.
Attitude determines altitude and action.

The me I see is Christ in me!
Now I can be all that I see.
For now I see a brand new me!
God's embassy is now in me.
All luxury, and discovery;
New melody -- my jubilee!
I've found the key. So, I decree,
That the me I see is Christ in me!
Dr. T. L. Osborne

The will of God is His supreme and ultimate ruling commandment.
The will of God is holy, and good, and just.

Acting in conformity with His will is a consideration of the order of God. Acting against God's will is not a consideration of the order of God.

God's wisdom logical pattern is: to lose is to gain; to die is to live; to give is to receive; to serve is to rule; to come out is to come into the Promised Land with milk and honey.

Marriage according to God is about covenant, gender, and humanity of those who are made in His image and His likeness.

God is the God of the form and the foundation.

Life is not a problem; it is a gift.

Repentance and forgiveness are the keys of kingdom living.

All and whole shakeable must be shaken.
All and whole moveable keep on moving.
We are serving a God of fire.
All and whole shakeable must be shaken.

Our glory shall not be stolen.
Our glory shall not be buried.
God made us for signs and wonders.
We will shine in Jesus' name.

We are worthy of what God says we are:
His breath and His prophetic destiny.

Being is to accept to be.
Being is not only doing, but accepting to be and doing and acting.

Victory enlarges us.
Defeat restrains us.

"Sleep with clean hands, either kept clean all day by integrity, or washed clean at night by repentance. " John Donne
"Honesty is the best policy" is a notion that's gathered some dust! Integrity has fallen on hard times in many areas of society. The qualities of honesty, truthfulness, reliability, and sincerity have often been pushed into the closet and replaced by hypocrisy, thievery, unfaithfulness, and deceit. Are we as good as our word? We must raise up the standard of integrity in a world where honor and uprightness grow ever dimmer.

Remember
0 = 0
then 0 = 1 (by common sense, by reason, or by faith)
0 = 1
Nothing is something (there is a thing not seen or ignored or out of our understanding)

To keep our integrity and our unity we must agree on our disagreements.

Almighty God is good and just and love from above.
Infinity is not eternal and eternity.
Infinity originates from my point of view to the expanse indefinitely.
Eternity is all over us, including us or not.
Infinity is that uncertainty, expanse that reason defines as boundless, limitless.
Eternity is expression, creation, and foundation of faith.
All is one and one in all.
I mean 0 = 1 and 1 + 1 = 1 and 1 + 1 + 1 = 1; therefore, 1 + 1 + ... + 1 = 1
In other words, 0 = 1 = 2 ...

Generosity that exposes us to destruction is evil.
Generosity that constructs us, builds us, blesses us is from God above.

"As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate." Albert Schweitzer

Kindness is a language the deaf can hear, the hurting can feel and heal and the blind can see. Unfortunately, it is often the first casualty in our battle with the clock and the timing of God.

What we sow is what we reap.
If we sow in warfare prayer and spiritual warfare, we will reap the fruit of deliverance, salvation, sanitation, sanctification, sufficiency of abundance, obedience and submission from above, putting on Christ, surrendering and yielding ourselves to the Holy Spirit and love from above.
If we sow in pleasing people instead of obeying God we will reap the fruit of bitterness and desolation.

Prayer of Grace in Humility

Father Lord,
Where sin abounds, may your grace abound all the more. Where oppression and bondage abound, may your grace abound all the more.
Father, your grace is sufficient in our weakness, where your power manifests itself perfectly.
May the sufficiency of your grace break and root out the chains and strongholds of any evil plantation of incurable disease, curses, occultism, divination, witchcraft, and impossibilities, and bring healing, blessing, deliverance, freedom, and possibilities and opportunities for your glory by the power of your Holy Spirit, in Jesus' name.

- No garment is more fitting for a Christian than that of humility. While some mistake meekness for weakness, most people admire humility in others because it conveys a quiet strength of character that does not need applause from the world. In any age when many "old-fashioned" values have gone out of style, modesty, respect for others, and deference to God's authority are still widely accepted standards of excellence. A person who looks up to God rarely looks down on people (adapted from CBN, Standards to Live By)

All things are permitted, but not all are for our needs, wants, and supplies.

God Almighty is progressive and continuing in his creation; so are his traits in his creatures. Animal traits, fish traits, bird traits, snakes, etc. can be found in nature (physical and material), in impure beings (good and evil), and in pure and holy beings (spiritual).

The reign, the governance, the ruling come from God; so does his establishment of kings, governors, and rulers. There is no potency, no presence, no science without God's omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience. All comes from God and belongs to him. Out of his will or order, there is chaos, hell, death, and no life.

Refusal of God's governorship brings forth the rulership of tyrants.

Language is a tongue gage (pledge) to a lie and to a truth that is power of death and life.

Mortgage and lifelong gage are the fruit of the power of the tongue.

Beauty is the expression of the state of happiness and joy of our heart.
Sadness and ugliness are the expression of the opposite.

Like a gold ring in the snout of a pig or swine; like a beautiful woman without discretion.

Rats everywhere on a boat or ship in a state of complacence and content (which do not flee) always precede chaos and shipwreck.

We are equal at birth and distinct in talent.
Lowborn is a breath; highborn is a lie. Both weighed in the balance are nothing but a breath.
Distinct is not a synonym of superior or inferior;. Distinct is distinct.

Eleven is a concluding number: so first becomes last.

Philosophy is embodied by humanity.

Humility is a foundation of good things, great things, victory, and glory.

Peace makes us individuals reconciled with ourselves and God Almighty and ambassadors of righteousness.
Peace makes us cool, calm, and collected.

Peace that comes from God is not a state of happiness that depends on circumstances. It is a deep, inner confidence that God is alive in us, working all things together for our good.

Knowing that Christ Jesus is with us equals the majority, evaporates sorrow and trouble, and speaks peace to our mind, heart, and soul.

Integrating God Almighty in what we say, in what we do, in what we are, in who we are, and in what we are not, in who we are not is the complete outstanding understanding of integrative education.

Come over
Pass over
Cross over
Keep in
Stand in
For ever and ever.

Humility, reverence to God Almighty precede wealth, honor, glory, and life.

Outrage does not limit courage.
Courage breaks through age.
No end to it.
Courage can resist everything.

Agreeing with God Almighty is being alive.
Agreeing with disagreement is growing in understanding and wisdom. It is the character God Almighty looks at, a good name that is esteemed more than silver and gold.

Philosophy of love from above, philosophy of truth from above, philosophy of life from above - all three are based on the three concepts: way, truth, and life.

Two kinds of all things (themselves and their opposites):
Two kinds of wisdom;
Two kinds of love;
Two kinds of truth;
Two kinds of life;
Two kinds of kingdoms.

Unity bars, stops, or blocks external and internal forces from operating to invade us. An undivided heart casts out or blocks those forces.

Serving Christ in Africa, in America, in Europe, or worldwide; praying Him with delight and determination for people's destinies is a three-fold job: job off - fence (cutting edge job), job offense (leaving complacency, comfort zone for competence), job impossible (breakthrough job by the anointing power of the Holy Spirit and fire).

Taking charge of thoughts, mastering emotions, watching what we say, and doing the right thing can save us from more trouble.
