Confusing time
Good Morning brothers and sisters. To say the least, this world is confusing and troubled. We live in an age where right is wrong and wrong is right. We live in a world where you can be sued for a thought. We live in a world where we are defined by our skin color, height, weight and all outward appearance. We live in a world where it is good for you to hate. We live in a world where we allow the government to tell us everything. But and that is a huge BUT, Jesus has overcome the world and the Holy Spirit led me to Titus this morning. Titus 2:11-15- For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself HIS own special people, zealous for good works. Speak these things, exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise you. We are to stand on the Rock, Jesus Christ, allow HIS Spirit to work in us, teach us. And we can do this all with respect and humility. Jesus tells us not to fight over non-salvation issues. We are too busy trying to prove that how we see the Bible is the right way. We are all told go to church. But on every street corner where there is a church, depending on the denomination is what is being taught. We are to stand together. I see fighting and calling people false prophets left and right. Come to my church, we preach the whole truthful Bible. But I don't see Christ manifested in you. We are to do Titus. Because if you notice it is the grace that God gives that brings salvation. We didn't hang on that cross. We didn't willingly give up heaven to die for human beings. Go through the refiners fire, take the plank out of our own eyes and then we will be proved for good. Christ followers we have to do better. Let's get filled with Jesus and let's show the world what He really is made of. Let's show the world that the Rock we stand on can not be moved. Let's rise up! God is gathering us and He is moving and you are highly favored and loved. Let's get pass on from milk and get on the with Kingdom business. Have a blessed day and RISE UP!
