If people can’t see what is taking place in America and around the world then they need to Wake Up before it is too late!!! Over the past 40 years many of our churches have drifted away from the truth in the Word of God and forgotten how to stand strong in faith while learning to grow in their personal relationship with the Lord our Savior. The church is a place for fellowship and instruction to help us mature in the will of God and to help others along the way. But so many have forgotten the meaning of how to love the Lord with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and all your mind. And to love your neighbor as yourself.
So many churches have fallen to social clubs while others have fallen as the Jews did to the Gentiles in trying to keep what they think they know to themselves without sharing it with the sinners that are in need. It breaks my heart to see people in the church that claim to be a Christian but show something totally different in their daily walk from their homes, from their work, and even how they act in the church. This is what has hurt the overall church body over the last 40 years in such a way that it has pushed others away from the church while causing our children to become lost in this world. This has also caused our issues here in America because we have forgotten how to stand on the truth without falling tolerant to what is not right by God.
There isn’t a soul on this earth that doesn’t feel pressured at times in causing them to walk right on by the work that really needs to be done or helping someone that may be in need. There are times for quick decisions in life threatening situations but never when we we have the time to truly evaluate the situation. Our world has fallen into the deception of Satan in such a way of thinking that we don’t have the time to share or do what really needs to be done. Satan knows our weaknesses and he knows if we feel pressured that we will make shallow decisions that will eventually come back to haunt us or even destroy us in due time. When we feel pressured for time this robbs us of the true joys in life while neglecting the purpose of time that builds things that will last from our relationships, our companies, our churches, and even our nation. Time is a beautiful thing when we stop and listen but far too often we fall to our pressures in life or to temptations of the flesh instead of building something on the foundation of God that will stand forever on the rock that will not fail.
It is time that we all stop to refocus our lives back on our foundation and really recognize the spirit that is guiding the steps of our future. Our churches need to recall that the church is a place for the sinner and a place to get filled for the work that we have ahead of us. The lives we are given are our mission fields and it is our duty under God to walk with Him and hold True to His Word while sharing the blessings of God in our lives with everyone that we come in contact with. This life is not supposed to be about us but to give us a glimpse of what we can have in Heaven when we have true love in the family of God while learning how to build something that will last with the time which we are given.
It is my prayer that we all Wake Up to the truth before it is too late. Because there is a Heaven and a Hell and if we don’t know where we are going then we need to recognize the path we are on!
Oh Lord, have mercy on us for we have fallen so far in selfish desires of the flesh. We know you have all power and can do all things and Lord I ask for the sake of our children and yours to forgive us once again in your mercy and grace in order to help those that are lost and to reveal your glory…amen
