you became slaves of righteousness. Romans 6:18
Choices arise in captivation. For you become obedient towards whom you serve. Selective service such as this consummates the knock off or the awe. Captive regard steers, with one glance, hostage drive at the heart. We are either enumerated by it or stained forebodingly because of it. How much more would we rather stand in awe? For “You have captivated my heart, my treasure, my bride; you have captivated my heart with one glance of your eyes, with a single jewel of your necklace” Song of Solomon 4:9. Being a slave can often times seem like a distract, heavy and hard toil and a drudge, not accommodating to our cachet but formed on the basis of custody matters, in Him we are captives and accommodated in righteousness because when He ascended on high He took prisoners captive (Psalm 68:18) meaning to un-prison us from what kind of slave we were before. So that the captivation of who we are now lays ground to a holy cessation of amazement whereby we stand captive to such a grace abounded that’s all unrestrained slaves can do. So enslaved I shall be.
To the praise of His glorious grace. Amen.

Over The Shoulder
Fix your thoughts...Philippians 4:8
Fixation renders removal of a position or condition that makes trouble greater than distant. To be in a fix more or less defines a dilemma against change. Either way, fixing is a: to become state. You or what you lay hold of is about to become a different arrangement. This action, however, in the sheep’s life must be an outcome or influence of and from the Sheppard. Why? So that we should be devoted to the extolling of His glorious attributes--we who were the first to fix our hopes on Christ. (1) Yes, the Great Sheppard of the sheep is into this correcting, setting, establishing, and fastening up business. It is only by His fixing us, laying hold of our hearts and minds, that we can in turn fix our thoughts, let alone make repairs to any area of our lives. The Lord knows who to fix and how to fix. The trio of the Father’s will, the Son’s words, and the Spirit’s works are all repair shop antidotes counteracting the effects of poison and disease. Fixing is the only way to be near Him. And Jehovah knows who are His because the one He fixes He brings near to him (Numbers 16:5). Is there any other remedy to something needed or wanted than the supplication of a definite fix from a definite Father. The attention we get and He gives now prepares us for the consistent stability of what comes later; the state of being where nothing needs or has to be fixed. Heaven and your hope of glory are so assembled that even though the distance is great now, Christ’s fix preserves our bearings on a different landmark; reconditioned and restored to what cannot be destroyed and what will no longer need fixed. Hallelujah and Amen.

Over The Shoulder
-Lay the gaff-
They that confide in Jehovah are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved; it abideth for ever. (Psalm 125:1)
Relegated destiny places, turns, even churns, yet is locked in. The tools are topsy-turvy and crux that lay the gaff. Such equipment with purpose wrenches and bolts the stanchions of mountains, even the bedrock of Zion. For on the Holy hill confidence is the alarm. They who confide in Jeshua sound like trumpets, though trembling their feet may be, the ground on which they stand cannot be moved. In these chatters, bumps, and brandishes of life we know the love which God has for us, and we confide in it (1 John 4:16). That the eye not lay hold of what is seen, only temporary things, but what is unseen: things of eternity (2 Corinthians 4:18). Be fitted for the composition of a kingdom assigned to you because of these things. So shall your wherewithal now become familiar as you give sense to them in the midnight hours. Rest your soul in deliberation of a higher stand that calls to what you are living with, to make everyday endure abundantly, more evident unto evermore, that which simply cannot be moved.
Selah & Amen
