GET THE DOOR!


Revelation 3:20

"Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.

______________________________________________________________

The world is asking: Where is God?  In all the mess we see going on in the world one could be tempted to believe that God is absent.  Yet the world forgets that slowly overtime it has shunned God and asked Him to leave.  No prayer in schools, and removing His commandments from every corner of the foundations of our society in the name of political correctness.  The saying “you don’t know what you have until it is gone” is so true.  If God were to completely take His hand off of creation the universe would dissolve and even the structure that drives complete chaos would unravel.  Yet as we push ever closer to the brink of self-annihilation, Jesus is knocking at the door.

Many Christians look at the news and the events of the world and worry, and or, hide their heads in the sand.  Like Peter who focused on the waves and the wind began sinking into the ocean we become overwhelmed within a world that tolerates our worship and seeks to assimilate us against the one we serve.  If only we would only turn our hearts and ears to the knocking at the door.  Jesus has never left.  Rather we have wheeled Him out of our hearts and lives and shut the door in His face.  And there Christ waits knocking, asking to come in and bring peace to the situations and events that fill our world.  Please whatever you do, don’t leave Christ outside knocking. Get the door, and let Christ in!

HARVEST TIME!

Galatians 6:9 New International Version (NIV) 9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Have you ever been working, waiting, or standing in the gap for anyone? In such times of testing and prayer did you ever think how easy it would be to give up? It seems that while we are going through we loose sight of the goal GOD has set before us! We focus on our discomfort and take the burden onto our own backs instead of leaning on GOD's everlasting arms. The struggle itself is not the problem. However, our main problem is our human condition. We cannot do it all on our own. We must constantly look in the mirror and remind ourselves that we are not alone. . . Ever! We must remember who our GOD is. GOD will never allow you to go through a problem without bringing you to your blessing. It may take more time than you would like to endure. However the outcome and harvest gained is what's needed. If you are ...

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint" (Isaiah 40:28-31 NIV). Do Not Grow Weary In Waiting!!! I have realized that we live in a society that has trained us to have everything "right now" and our way. We have become experts in getting our children to stop having temper tantrums. We grow weary when we even think about how long something may take. And the thought of working through a rough patch in our lives and marriages seems like the thing not to do. I mean!! Half of our marriages end in divorce. How can Christians fight for marri...

LOVE. . . EVEN WHEN IT HURTS!

John 4:7-8 7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.  _____________________________ It sounds so easy! “Love one another”! But it is a task that takes practice and the Holy Spirit working within us to accomplish.   IT is easy to love a friend or a family member. Those who are good to us make it easy. But what about our enemies? How can we love them?   This verse does not exclude our enemies.   Those who push our buttons need our love the most.   Those who we must pray for daily need to see Christ in each one of us.   And please remember to others we are that person that needs prayer as well. Bottom Line: Loving others the way GOD loves us is not an easy task. It takes the spirit of GOD working in side of us to accomplish.   It takes the death of the old us and the new nature of Christ living in...
