Starting today!
Good morning brothers and sisters. There is so much hatred and evil going on in the world. Even if you don't think it is evil and people have the right to do what they want. I will tell you yes and no. No people do not have the right to do what they want. Yes they have the right to make decisions about their own personal lives. But no one has the right to force anyone to do what the other person wants them to do or believe in. Now with all that being said, I am calling out to you that say you belong to the Lord. If you do say it, you better mean it. And you must find out what the Lord says belongs to Him. But if we as Christians would like God to hold back for a time because we all know people that right now if Jesus would return, there would be people we love dearly, NOT GO! I don't want Him to return until everyone has had the opportunity to make a sound decision on Jesus. Not some religious rules but Jesus Himself. So let's go back to the Old Testament and see what the prophet Jeremiah told the Israelites. If it is good for them, don't you think that it is good for us. Jeremiah 4:1-2. 1- "IF you WILL return, O Israel," says the Lord, "Return to Me; and IF you WILL put away your abominations out of My sight, then you shall not be moved. 2- And you shall swear, 'The Lord lives, in truth, in judgement, and in righteousness; the nations shall bless themselves in Him. And in Him they shall glory." You notice that takes action on the part of the Israelites and that takes action on our parts. We need to return to the Lord, not what your opinion is, not what my opinion is, what the Lord actually says. We need pastors to preach and teach, we need elders to guide. We need followers to not be afraid. Who are you afraid of, the one that can at worst, kill the body; or the One that kill both body and soul. I choose this day to serve and do ALL that He commands of me. What say you? Repent, refresh, revive. Rise up children of God, rise up!
