Are you longing for your heavenly HOME? This morning as I prayed it came to me how so many are in love with this world and the things of this world!
Instead of longing for HOME and desiring the return of Jesus, they desire earthly pleasures, experiences, and treasures!

As You Go!
Who has God placed in your life? Where do you find yourself at this point in your walk? What are you doing?
As we walk through life we are on a daily mission! We are each called to be missionaries!
This is the mission of a child of God — Not just some of His children, but each of us!
Matthew 10:7-8
And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

Weeping Prophets!
Where are the weeping prophets today? Where are those who like Jeremiah, Ezekiel and others cry out for the people of God to turn back to Him?
Ezekiel 14:6,11
Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the LORD GOD; Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.

We Should Grieve Over Sin!
What do we do when we look at our lives, and our hearts, and at the world around us?
Do we grieve at what we see? Or do we just do nothing and tell ourselves, there’s nothing we can do, we’re just sinners ourselves and evil is everywhere!
Do we mock, or laugh at sin and make light of the seriousness of its consequences?
Do we allow sin to stay in our hearts, and in our lives, or do we cry out to the LORD — LORD, forgive me, I repent of this sin in my life!

What Do You Treasure?
I want to start with the conclusion because it is the answer to how we should be living, and where our hearts should be, especially as we see the day of the LORD approaching!
Matthew 16:26
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Beloved, whatever we treasure in this life will be what captures our hearts!

Does Your Life Align With The Word of God?
Do you say that you are a Christian? Does your life align with His Word?
If you say you love Him, but don’t walk in obedience to His Word, you don’t really love Him!
1 John 2:1-6
My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous: And He is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

Who Are You Walking With?
The Word talks a lot about what kind of people we should be! It also speaks about the kind of people we should walk through life with — And those to avoid!
Who we choose as friends, and as our spouse is very consequential! The Word says that bad company corrupts good morals. As much as we’d like to think it would, it doesn’t work the other way around!

One!
One is important!
There is One God and One Mediator between God and man — The man Jesus Christ!
1 Timothy 2:5-6
For there is One God, and One Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
There is only this One Way to the Father — Jesus Christ!
John 14:5-7
Thomas saith unto him, LORD, we know not whither Thou goest; and how can we know the way? Jesus saith unto him, I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.

Irrelevant?
Who does the LORD choose to call His own? Does He look for a person or a people that are mighty in number and in strength, or those deemed weak and irrelevant by the standards of the world?
And sadly it’s not only the world that calls those whom God would set apart to call His own, irrelevant — Often it is a worldly church that does so!

The Art Of Deception!
So many of us bought into and even glamorized the tactics of the enemy! Instead of seeing deception for what it is — A lie, we saw it as a justifiable means to a desired end!
Even though our motivation was one desiring truth and justice, we allowed for deception to be part of the solution!
Satan is called the deceiver, and the father of lies! When we operate in deception and lies, we are operating in his kingdom!

His Mercy And Goodness!
As I prayed yesterday and wrote the message about our Wonderful Shepherd and all He provides for us, the Words at the end of Psalm 23 stood out to me!
Psalm 23:6
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
These are very important and comforting Words beloved, as we so need His mercy and His goodness to follow us!

Our Shepherd!
This morning as I prayed as often happens, Words from Psalm 23 came to my mind and poured from my heart to the LORD!
These Words — “Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.”
Beloved, the LORD has given us so many precious promises! Allow me to expand on some of these from this Psalm as I did in my prayers this morning!
I know you will think of many more as you read my thoughts! Thank You LORD for the Words of Life we receive from You in Jesus Name!

Changing Times!
It is said of God in early Daniel that He changes times and seasons!
Daniel 2:20-22
Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the Name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are His: And He changeth the times and the seasons:
He removeth kings, and setteth up kings: He giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: He revealeth the deep and secret things: He knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with Him.

Quiet Our Hearts!
Do you need peace and quietness from the LORD in your heart today?
Are you in a storm? Are you confused or troubled? What are you facing right at this moment?
Has your life been shaken by some event in your life? Are you fearful or anxious about what the future holds for you or your loved ones?

Our Tests Are Our Testimony!
Do you have a testimony? Stories of what the LORD has brought you through to share with others who the LORD will bring into your life at some point? Those who will need to hear what He did for you?
We see this in the life of Joseph! The LORD was using his trials to do something for his family and an entire nation!

He Holds Our Hand!
Many who read my messages will have heard this story, but I was reminded of it this week as I talked with my granddaughter about dreams that seem to show future or past events!
I hope my dream, and the things I discovered after it will encourage you that your Father loves you, and is always by your side, holding your hand!
The most intimate Name for the LORD in the Word is Abba! This Name shows us the LORD’S character as our loving Father!

The Life Of King Asa!
In the life of Asa we see devotion to the LORD, and the battle we often face of trusting in man instead of in the LORD!
It was said of Asa that he did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD! Asa removed the sodomites from the land, and he even removed his mother from being Queen because she had set up an idol!

What Are You Feeding Yourself And Others?
Before we can be healthy, we must ensure we are eating healthily! Before we can give food to others that will benefit them, we must know what to feed them!
Jesus told Peter three times that if he loved Him, he should feed His sheep!
John 21:15-17
So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou Me more than these? He saith unto Him, Yea, LORD; Thou knowest that I love Thee.

No Other Way!
Jesus is Truth and when He spoke these Words there was no ambiguity in them! He is the only Way to the Father, and to eternal Life with Him in His Kingdom!
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.
Do you believe these Words Jesus spoke? Many say that there are many paths to eternal life! They say we should unite with those of other faiths!

Are You Worshipping In Vain?
Are you only giving lip service to God, or are you walking in obedience to His Word?
God requires obedience!
Mark 7:6-7
He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.

If You Don’t Have Love!
First we must distinguish between the kind of love God displays Himself, and the kind of love He requires of His children!
Jesus said this to the church at Thyatira!
Revelation 2:19
I know thy works, and charity (love), and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.
