What An Amazing Time We Live In

Jul12

Alarm

Not sure if you noticed or not. But this week was another EYE-OPENER week in the news!

With rockets blaring across the skies daily and the three young men brutally killed in Gaza this past week, Israel said enough is enough and decided to go on the offense.

Now, that’s nothing new. They are bombarded daily. However, it quickly changed when Lebanon started firing rockets too. Why was this such an eye-opener?

Many Biblical “pre-trib” scholars believe that the Psalm 83 war prophecy sets the stage for the Rapture, the Gog and Magog war, and Armageddon. When Lebanon decided to join in the rocket launches, Psalm 83 started coming to life in my mind quickly. I won’t go into major detail in this writing. However, I do suggest you familiarize yourself with these prophecies. You can easily google search Psalm 83, Ezekiel 25, Obadiah 1, Daniel, and Revelations to come up with various writings on these subjects. An example of such a writing is found at: http://www.arewelivinginthelastdays.com/road/mewar.html

My brothers and sisters…we are seeing signs come to pass at an alarming rate. Not only that, but with increased intensity…just like God said it would. Now, “no man is to know the day or hour” (Matthew 24:36). HOWEVER, we are told that “when you see these signs, all taken together, coming to pass, you may know of a surety that He is near, at the very doors.”(Matthew 24:33)

I’m not here as a fear-monger or an end-of-the-world prophet. I am simply SOUNDING THE ALARM that another major Biblical sign appears to be starting.

I truly believe we are closer than anyone realizes to the Rapture of the Church. God specifically tells us  to “keep awake and watch at all times, praying that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that will take place.” Now, there isn’t any reason to stress out or worry about this as God says “…I (God) will keep you FROM the hour of trial.” (Revelation 3:10)

My main purpose today is to urge you in inviting Him into your life today. Don’t wait for tomorrow, next week, or next year. INVITE HIM IN TODAY for you don’t know what tomorrow brings!

Just simply say…

“Lord Jesus, come into my heart.  On the cross, You paid the price for all my sins. I repent now and ask for your forgiveness. Today, I receive you as my Lord and Savior. I believe that I am saved and will spend eternity with You. Thank you for accepting me right now, as I am, with your unconditional love towards me. Fill me with your wisdom, knowledge, and strength to walk closer with you, Lord. In Jesus’ mighty name I pray. Amen!

Congratulations, you are now part of God’s family!

Hallelujah, WHAT AN AMAZING TIME WE LIVE IN! OUR LORD AND SAVIOR IS COMING SOON!

Glory

 

Things Will Change

May30

Many times in life, we feel like we are going nowhere. We’re at a standstill and nothing seems to be happening.  Unsure of any direction and simply put, hope begins to fade.  In times like this, we need to be reminded that the barrenness we feel is only temporary and God’s answers will break through.

We are reminded of this very thing, in Genesis.  God promised Abraham that he would be the father of many nations. Yet, Abraham did not know the “when”, he just knew that God made him a promise.

Now, during the course of Abraham’s story, you begin to realize that a lot of time passed by with nothing happening. You could easily say that Abraham found himself on a long, rocky road of barrenness. He had no clue of the “how” and “when” this promise was supposed to happen. In fact, so many years went by, we see Abraham and Sarah deciding to take matters into their own hands. Unfortunately, we also see that unnecessary strife was the outcome of their decision. However, even though they made a mistake, God still came through for them. The most amazing part was that Abraham and Sarah were far beyond child-rearing days and yet, Sarah gave birth to a child. Just like God said it would happen.

See, it doesn’t matter how long or how rocky our barrenness is. What matters is God has given us THOUSANDS of promises throughout scripture. He knows exactly what we are going through and how to resolve the issues we face. God knows the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10) and certainly doesn’t need our help along the way. He knows the answer and the perfect timing to make it all happen.

So, when you find yourself on that long rocky road, praying, waiting, and crying out for something to happen; remind yourself of God’s promises. Because even if you lose hope, hope remains. Even if you feel like you are losing faith, a mustard seed of faith will do. (Matthew 17:20)

I don’t know about you but I love surprises.  And, GOD IS FULL OF SURPRISES! In His perfect timing, He will transform your barrenness into something absolutely amazing!

So, HOLD ON! God loves you way too much to leave you where you are. Everyday is a new day and something AWESOME could happen to you in a blink of an eye!

Winning the Battle

May25

StrugglesHave you noticed that the people of the world don’t seem to be going through as many struggles as believers are? Right now, problems are plaguing the children of God. Physically, spiritually, financially, emotionally; every day appears to be worse than before. Have you ever stopped to wonder why?

There is a huge battle going on in the spiritual realm. If people are following the “world’s” way, they are not considered a threat. However, if they believe in Christ, they are considered a huge, terrible threat.

Our battles are not of this world. We are told in II Corinthians 10:3-4: “For though we walk in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons. For the weapons of our warfare are not physical, but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds.”

Satan carefully strategizes and is trying to get you to waiver. He is doing everything he can to make you think wrong thoughts and not believe who you are in Christ. Satan is very good in setting up strongholds every chance he gets; cunningly deceiving all of those who will listen to his lies. He doesn’t want you realizing that YOU ARE MORE THAN A CONQUERER!

That is why we must always be on guard. Every time a thought comes into your mind, you need to ask yourself if it lines up with God’s word or not. If it doesn’t, dismiss it immediately. Then, find a scripture that contradicts the thought, in order to put your mind back in alignment with God’s word. This will help build your confidence, your faith, and help you stand tall against all of the adversity.

God will provide

You are a threat to Satan. He knows his time is short and he needs to get every one of us going down the wrong path. The more he can throw at us, the more we start doubting our calling and who we are. Don’t let Satan dim your light! You are a CHILD OF THE MOST HIGH GOD. Peace, love, joy, and victory are yours for the taking!

You have a God-given purpose and nothing can stop you!

Release and Accept

May16

Let Go (2014_03_10 01_21_18 UTC)Life has a funny way of constantly reminding you of the things you’ve done wrong. You can be in the middle of a fantastic day, when out of nowhere, a reminder of your past comes along. As soon as it pops into your head, you have a choice to make. You can either mull it over and relive it, or you can ask for God’s forgiveness and release it to Him.

No matter who you are, where you came from, or what you’ve done…IT DOES NOT DEFINE YOU NOW! Your past is just that…your past. When you repented and accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, your past no longer exists and He sees your sins no more. (Hebrews 10:17) You don’t have to live in shame, guilt, anger, or regret. Thanks to Jesus’s finished work, you are a new creature in Christ and only the best days are ahead of you.

So the next time a little reminder comes along, stop it in its path. Release whatever it is to God and let Jesus’ rest come upon you. He will never leave you, nor forsake you. Let Him fill you with unspeakable peace that only He can provide. Accept His loving mercy and kindness today.

REPEAT AFTER ME:

Lord Jesus, thank you for loving me so much. Thank you for forgiving me of my sins and making me a new creature. Today, I release all of my past hurts, anger, guilt, shame, and pain. Fill me with your amazing peace as I begin to step forward into the incredible life you have for me. Today, I will walk boldly and confidently knowing that my past is forgiven. Thank you for your mercy and kindness. In Jesus’ mighty name, I pray. Amen.

Now…THANK GOD FOR HIS GOODNESS AND GO HAVE A TREMENDOUS DAY!

Be Thankful (2014_03_10 01_21_18 UTC)
