AND HAST PLEASURE IN UPRIGHTNESS. AS FOR ME, IN

THE UPRIGHTNESS OF MINE HEART I HAVE WILLINGLY

OFFERED ALL THESE THINGS: AND NOW HAVE I SEEN WITH

JOY THY PEOPLE, WHICH ARE PRESENT HERE, TO OFFER

WILLINGLY UNTO THEE." I Chronicles 29:17 _____________________________________________

12:33 OF ZEBULUN, SUCH AS WENT FORTH

TO BATTLE, EXPERT IN WAR, WITH ALL

INSTRUMENTS OF WAR, FIFTY THOUSAND,

WHICH COULD KEEP RANK: THEY WERE

NOT OF DOUBLE HEART.

The  best  warriors in our holy war  are  the          Heart

single-hearted.     Loyalty   is   essential.               Fidelity

Treason cannot be tolerated.   Divided hearts          Loyalty

are the omen of defeat. *1

    15:12 AND SAID UNTO THEM, YE ARE THE 

    CHIEF OF THE FATHERS OF THE LEVITES:  

    SANCTIFY  YOURSELVES,  BOTH  YE  AND 

    YOUR BRETHREN,  THAT YE MAY BRING UP 

    THE  ARK  OF THE LORD GOD OF  ISRAEL 

    UNTO THE PLACE THAT I HAVE  PREPARED 

    FOR IT.



"Sanctify yourselves."  The initiative of the 

believer to set himself apart, to be cleansed 

by his own choice.



    16:29  GIVE UNTO THE LORD THE  GLORY 

    DUE UNTO HIS NAME:   BRING AN OFFER-

    ING,  AND COME BEFORE HIM:   WORSHIP 

    THE  LORD IN THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS.  

    (See Psalms 29:2; 96:9)



BEAUTY AND CLEANLINESS

When God created the cosmic world, He gave it          Holiness, Beauty of
                                                 
beauty  in  color,  form,  fragrance,  sound, 

taste and order.



Through  the  ages man has  been  devastating          Purity

original Edenic beauty!

I CHRONICLES SALT GUIDE TO PRACTICAL HOLINESS ____________________________________________________________ Where bottles, cans, graffiti, trash, junk- yards, discarded paper and litter of all descriptions clutter the scene, ecology is threatened to the point that even unregener- ate man is sounding the alarm of its dangers. Trash spoils natural beauty. Natural Beauty Uncleanness is always the enemy of beauty! You can destroy the beauty of anything with Defilement filth. So it is with the BEAUTY OF HOLINESS! Worldliness is the pollution of the beauty of holiness. Cosmetology is man's attempt to deify self. But when we pollute the natural beauty, we not only attempt the glorification of the flesh, we cheapen and pollute original beauty. "The natural look" is always in vogue, considered good taste and envied by the unchaste and impure. 28:9 AND THOU, SOLOMON MY SON, KNOW THOU THE GOD OF THY FATHER, AND SERVE HIM WITH A PERFECT HEART AND WITH A WILLING MIND: FOR THE LORD SEARCHETH ALL HEARTS, AND UNDER- STANDETH ALL THE IMAGINATIONS OF THE THOUGHTS: IF THOU SEEK HIM, HE WILL BE FOUND OF THEE; BUT IF THOU FOR- SAKE HIM, HE WILL CAST THEE OFF FOR EVER. GOD'S ADVICE Know thou the God of thy father. God didn't indicate to Solomon that he needed a whole Fathers new revelation for "the special day he was Willing Heart living in." God's advice to Solomon was to adhere to the faith of his Father; to abide by David's teachings and convictions. A willing mind. Willingness speaks of inner desire. A desire to serve God and keep His commandments. This inner desire is the God given key to obedience. It is what the Holy Spirit brings into the heart of the genuinely converted. If you have the Holy Spirit, you will love truth and the commandments above all things. John 14:15
