Come Alive
I know...it's been quite a while since I've last written. A lot of things have happened since my last post and not all of it is good. But as you know, I don't need to dig up what has been buried. Thank God for that! I am also incredibly thankful for the time I have right now to bring you God's Word and talk about the things He has pressed on my heart to share. Lives are being changed every day because of God stories. Anyone I know who reads this, knows that God plays the biggest role in my life. Sure, I am so full of many imperfections and I don't always get it right. However, I long to please God who is beyond perfect. And because I accepted Jesus as my Savior, I am in the process of becoming more and more like Him. I am a work in progress. One day, all that He has desired to do in me will be complete. Till then...
This past weekend was Easter. Eight years ago on Good Friday, I received Christ. I don't always see my own spiritual growth, but I do know that as Christians, we are always in the process of growing. There have been times the devil has used people to try and convince me that I haven't grown much at all. What a lie! This is what I know regarding the matter from the Bible. Walk with the wise and become wise; associate with fools and get in trouble(Proverbs 13:20). We have got to ignore the voice of the devil. As believers, we need to know God's Word so that we are able to discern God's voice vs. the devil's. The devil is hard at work trying to make our testimonies weak and the work of God in our lives to be as ineffective as possible. If he could (and I'm sure he has), he'd try to get even believers to take their own lives, let alone to make life a living hell. He will use anything he can to take us down. That is why we are called to stand FIRM and declare God's Word over our lives! Be careful who you allow into your lives and who you choose to listen to.
There is one more thing I'd like to share before I must close for the night. It is getting late. Last Tuesday, we had the honor is watching the 1st of 4 blood moon's (lunar eclipse) that will occur in the next year. Look up blood moons in the Bible! It was creepy and amazing all at the same time. As excited as I get about the coming of the Lord, I am also deeply burdened for the lost who are heading for eternity apart from Christ. Our lives here on earth are brief, but eternity is forever. If you are reading this and are uncertain of whether you are going to heaven or not, do not delay. Receive Christ now!!! A terminally ill person may be told by the doctor that they only have months, weeks or days left to live. You, my friend, aren't even guaranteed tomorrow or even the next five minutes. Once you die, that is it. There is no turning back! Trust me, once you realize the truth, it might be after you die. There is nothing you can do about it then. Don't let that be you. Now is the time to get right before you go wrong...for eternity!
And now some insight and scripture:
***God wants to deliver you and that is why you are reading this now. His Word can save your life and deliver you from death! ***
He sent out His word and healed them; He rescued them from the grave. Psalm 107:20
***Only God can give you the victory to overcome the trials in life. He keeps you safe! He has kept the enemy from pursuing you.***
"My victory and honor come from God alone. He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me." Psalm 62:7
***By placing your faith in Jesus, you have no reason to fear evil. The enemy is defeated.***
"For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith. 1 John 5:4
