Get Off The Fence

And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. (Rev 3:14-16 KJV)

Get off the fence! 

The warning to the church in Laodicea is that they are lukewarm and because they are neither hot nor cold, they are about to be spit out of the mouth of God. This message could and should be heard by a goodly number of those who claim to be members of the church, the Body of Christ, in North America. There are many who say that they believe; yet, they are not on fire for the Lord. Neither are they totally cold as they will profess their faith and love for the Lord when pressed on the subject. They will say they believe; but, will not stand on or stand up for the Word of God. St. James wrote: "Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble." (James 2:19)

Thanks be to God not all who profess to be Christians are lukewarm. The time is now for all who profess to the love the Lord to get hot! Get off the fence! Proclaim the Good News of God loves for all people through Jesus Christ.

He stands at the door and knocks. Don't be talking to him through a crack in a slightly opened door. Open the door all of the way and let him in and you will no longer be able to continue on lukewarm. He will set your heart on fire. Open the door and let him in!

Let Us Pray

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

(Eph 3:14-21 KJV)

God is not a mere abstract figure. He is above all and in all and through all. Jesus is the one who is able to do all that we ask and more according to the power of the Holy Spirit that works in and through all of our Father's children. 

May God grant all of his children the knowledge of who he is and what he has and will do for us so that we might learn to depend on his grace and his power in all things.

God's Peace - Pr. J.

What God Does For You

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. Eph 3:20-21 KJV)

It is absolutely amazing what God can do and has done for us! The most amazing of all is that though we were lost in sin and continue to sin our Father continues to love and care for us. He loves us enough to send His only begotten Son to give himself as a sacrifice for our sins that we might be reconciled to our Father in heaven. How amazing is that!? No matter what you may have done, Jesus died for the forgiveness of your sins that you might be saved. "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God." (Eph 2:8)

That loving God is with you today and tomorrow and everyday looking out for you. "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." (Rom 8:28)

My Redeemer Lives

"For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:" (Job 19:25 KJV)

What comfort those words from Job can bring! When life feels desolate; when peace seems like a distant dream, we can look forward with hope to the day when there will be no more suffering and pain because we know that our Redeemer lives! We can look to the latter day when every knee shall bow before the Lord. We can look to the day when we see Jesus in full glory.

May God grant you hope for a future of joy and peace in His presence.

God's Peace - Pr. J
