WHY HAVE WE BECOME SUCH A HATEFUL, PHONY, SUSPICIOUS, FEARFUL, GREEDY AND SPITEFUL NATION

WHY HAVE WE BECOME SUCH A HATEFUL, PHONY, SUSPICIOUS, FEARFUL, GREED AND SPITEFUL NATION?

PART V

This is the last of my four-part writing on the ongoing demise of our nation, through the actions dictated by our thoughts (mind) and hearts toward one another. Let’s understand one very important thing about FEAR. All the other feelings, emotions and actions that we encounter and find ourselves entertaining are direct results of the fear we allow to come in and cloud our mind and judgement. We, as individuals, make up the nations, ergo the world. And until we learn to turn complete control of our lives, to the one Who controls it all, YHWH, the fate of our limited existence, power and prosperity (spiritual and natural) will be realized too late.

In past years, when I was younger and especially when my mom and dad were young, I remember them making it a point to greet our neighbors, even though there was a great distance between us. And when I became an adult this became a part of my nature to meet, greet and speak to our neighbors: no matter who, where or when. And even though there were and still is bias (prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way considered to be unfair) and bigotry (obstinate or intolerant devotion to one’s own opinions and prejudices : the state of mind of a bigot) going on, you were still cordial and help if the need arose. We need to get back to basic manners, tempered with an agape love and actions that are worthy of our LORD. Because YAH is not looking at you through the other person’s action but through and by your own. (Matthew 5:16 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven).

But now, because we have become so suspicious(having or showing a cautious distrust of someone or something) of each other, we can’t get around the questions and reasonings in our heads (“What will they do if we become friendly?”  or “What price will we have to pay?” or “What we may have to do?”), that most of us totally ignore one another: can’t be bothered, won’t exert the effort.  What did Yashuah say about that? (Matt.22 Verses 34 to 40 [37] Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. [38] This is the first and great commandment. [39] And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. [40] On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Loving one another (your neighbor) was, then and is very important to Yashuah. He said that on or from these two commandments are all the laws and Prophets: the laws were given out of YAH’s love for us and the Prophets were sent to interpret them.  Also, to help clarify it further, in case we don’t understand why we are to love and not hate one another below are scriptures that comes from the LORD Himself.  We’ve got to stop being so suspicious of one another and lean on the LORD, love self, so you will be able to love others.  To do this, make all of our hearts right and truthful.Yes, we will continue to fall (this is the natural man) but getting up, with Yashuah’s help, will make it much easier and genuine.

Mark 12:30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

James 1:27 Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

Matthew 5:44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

Galatians 6:10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith. God’s got it no worry no fear. Amen.

YHWH is still on the throne, watching, waiting, delivering, healing; all that He does. And there is no one big or powerful enough to knock Him off. (Smile).
