Beloved

Fam, some days, and for many of us, a lot of days you are going to be down on your dick.

But, then on them days, “you are going to remember the very thing that Satan and his minions are hoping you will forget“.

And, what is that you ask.

Well, your heavenly father created each of them.

Rich and Poor.

And, so within him he is rich unto all.

For those of Satan and his signees, choose to steer clear.

 

Scripture

Now, you got me using 4 letter words, just to encourage your crazy ___.Now that you a bit encouraged, let me turn right around and make this __ legal.

  1. Proverbs
    • Proverbs 22:2 – A Good Name ( Link )
      • 1 A good name is more desirable than great riches; favor is better than silver and gold.
        2 The rich and the poor have this in common: The LORD is Maker of them all.
        3 The prudent see danger and take cover, but the simple keep going and suffer the consequences
    • Proverbs 29:13 – The Stiff-Necked will Be Destroyed ( Link )
      • 12 If a ruler listens to lies, all his officials will be wicked.
        13 The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: The LORD gives light to the eyes of both.
        14 A king who judges the poor with fairness—his throne will be established forever.
  2. Ezra
    • Ezra 9:8 – Ezra’s Prayer of Confession ( Link )
      • 8 But now, for a brief moment, grace has come from the LORD our God to preserve for us a remnant and to give us a stake in His holy place. Even in our bondage, our God has given us new life and light to our eyes.
        9 Though we are slaves, our God has not forsaken us in our bondage, but He has extended to us grace in the sight of the kings of Persia, giving us new life to rebuild the house of our God and repair its ruins, and giving us a wall of protection in Judah and Jerusalem.

 

Salah

 

Though in bondage, always the Rs.

Repair & Rebuild the Ruins.
