When Jesus taught His disciples how to pray, one thing He said was that they should pray to their Father in heaven that His kingdom would come, and that His Will would be done on earth just as it is done in heaven!
As I thought about this part of what has become known as the LORD’S prayer, it struck me that this prayer won’t be fully answered until Jesus reigns upon this earth during the millennium!

Perception!
How do you view the world? How do you view other people? How do you view yourself?
Perception is defined as ‘physical sensation interpreted in the light of experience.’
Often we look at the world, ourselves, and others based on things that have happened to us in the past. Did you grow up in a family that was filled with strife and division? Were your parents divorced? Were you abused?

What Is The Biblical Pattern For Church?
I was listening to a local Christian radio station this morning on my way to run an errand, and I heard a song about the church being like a hospital for sick people.
The song said that if we really accepted all people, like those in sin, our churches would be full!
It sounds good doesn’t it, and it appeals to our desire not to exclude anyone in the name of love, non judgment, and tolerance, but is it Biblical?

Where Do You Find Satisfaction?
Only in the LORD can we find complete and fulfilling satisfaction!
Psalm 65:4
Blessed is the man whom Thou choosest, and causest to approach unto Thee, that he may dwell in Thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, even of Thy holy temple.

It Will Only Get Worse!
When you see the leaders of a nation, and those in the limelight tolerate sins the Word of God calls an abomination, you know that the time for the return of Jesus in judgment is near!
Is there any ambiguity in this commandment? No, there is not!
Leviticus 18:22
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Refining Fire!
Jesus told us that in this world we would have tribulation, but not to lose heart because He would deliver us out of each trial!
John 16:33
These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Godly Sorrow!
What does it mean to have Godly sorrow?
2 Corinthians 7:10
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
There is so much sorrow in this life. The devastation from the recent floods have placed a heaviness of heart on so many.
The state of not only the world, but of those who claim the Name of Christ brings sorrow in our hearts.

True Freedom!
Have you been set free? Have you declared your independence from sin and death through the sacrifice made for you by Jesus Christ?
The greatest freedom granted unto man is not freedom from a tyrannical government, but freedom from sin and death!
Freedom that brings man not merely the temporary liberties of equality, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, that only gratifies one in this life, but true freedom that leads one to life eternal in His presence.

The Restrainer!
God is in control! He is restraining evil and the unfolding of events of the last days! He is withholding, or letting.
This means that God is allowing; giving opportunity to; or failing to prevent something from happening!
2 Thessalonians 2:6-8
And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only He who now letteth will let, until He be taken out of the way.

Ask And He Will Give You The Nations!
Jesus came to seek and save the lost! Not only the lost sheep of Israel, but all nations!
John 3:16-17
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.

Storm Shelter!
Do you have a safe place where you can go when you encounter stormy weather?
Are you prepared to face high winds, crashing trees, and other objects, tornadoes, hurricanes, torrential downpours, and hail?
It’s important to be prepared physically, but it’s even more important to be prepared spiritually!
Do you have a Shelter from the storm that is coming upon the earth? Have you prepared spiritually?

Seeing Then…!
Dearly beloved, when we read the Words below, they should move us to respond!
Just look around you! The signs of the last days are everywhere! If you know the Word of God, you’ll know what I mean!
After Peter describes the last days in the letter below, he asks an important question — “Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be…?”

Behold, He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
Psalm 121:4
I think in these days it’s very important to be reminded of this message I wrote in October of 2023.
Here is the message!
Chosen By God!
The LORD chooses whom He desires! As high as the heavens are above the earth, so are His ways higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts!

EnCOURAGErs!
What do we need as we live and wait in anticipation for the return of our LORD?
We certainly don’t need more things, whatever “things” mean to you personally!
As we await the coming of our LORD, the days will become more confusing to many, and they won’t understand what is happening!
Let’s look at what Daniel tells us; some of what will happen in the days ahead!

Strength and Honor are Her Clothing!
Being a mom is such a high calling, and great responsibility! A mom is the center of a child’s world. She loves, nourishes, and cares for her child’s every need, when they are unable to care for themselves!
The Word tells us about the love and comfort a mother gives to her child! He compares it to the love and comfort He gives to His people!
Isaiah 66:13
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.

Jesus Is The Rock!
Who is the Rock upon Whom the church of Jesus Christ is built?
The world is abuzz with talk of a new Pope; a man the Catholic Church has elevated and gives allegiance to!
But is it Biblical that the Pope should hold such a position? Did Jesus institute the office of Pope, when He spoke the Words below to Peter? Let’s look to the Word of God for our answer!

Never Give Up On Them!
Surely there are those in each of our lives that we think are hopelessly lost, or that we think could never change!
How did God feel when He looked upon man whom He had created to have fellowship with Him?
The Word of God tells us that there was a day that He regretted creating man! But instead of completely turning His back on them, which He could have done, He chose to redeem them!

Don’t Be Blinded By A False Light!
There is much talk in recent years, and in this present time as well about light exposing darkness, and a great awakening happening in the world!
When we hear this, it sounds good on the surface. It is true that many say they have realized the reality of God, and good, because they have seen the depth of darkness and evil!

Persevering To The End!
We are living in days of great deception, and the Word of God tells us the deception will increase as we approach the day of Jesus’ return!
How are we told we should be living, knowing His return is near? We are to be watching and taking every opportunity to tell others about what God did for them through Jesus!

Why LORD?
So often those who say they don’t believe in God, say it is because, if there was a God, He wouldn’t allow so many bad things to happen in this world, or to them personally!
They may say they have tried to believe in God, but because He didn’t answer their prayers, or because they saw the existence of so much evil, they stopped believing!

Intercessor!
Can you imagine a higher calling than that of an Intercessor? The potential to change not only lives for eternity, but the daily lives of those you bring to God’s throne; both those you know personally, as well as those you’ll never speak to in this life as well!
You can be a world changer from the comfort of your own home, or wherever you find yourself!
The prayers we pray will go beyond this life! Once we bring a person or a situation to the LORD, He will never forget!
