We
must continue to be focused on what God is speaking to us and to the
Body of Christ. God is calling us to take back what belongs to Him.
It is time to take back our nation, our schools, our churches, our
families and our children. We have allowed the covering or mantle of
the Holy Spirit to slowly erode and thereby give access to the spirit
of darkness in each of these areas of our lives.
God
is calling us as the Body of Christ to rise up in the power and
authority of heaven and challenge this onslaught and invasion by the
powers of darkness. We must begin where we live. We must begin within
our own families. We must stop this intrusion of deception that has
silently crept into our lives. We must weigh the doctrines of men
with the plumb line of God’s Holy Word and respond accordingly. We
can no longer accept the role of pacifism which is the mother of
apathy. A lack of action has brought us to where we are. It’s time
to stand up and be counted as a people who preach, teach and live by
the Truth of God’s Word.
We
have a Divine responsibility to teach our children the Truth by Word
and deed. The confusion that appears to have come about concerning
the sexual identity of individuals in this generation could have been
addressed at the very root of its origin if parents had taught
their children the Truth and lived that Truth before them. We are
reaping a harvest of our indecisiveness. We have been too afraid we
might offend or drive them away.
The
time has come to decide how we want to finish this journey! God is
giving this world an ultimatum much in the same way Elijah challenged
Israel at Mt. Carmel. 1 Kings 18:21, “And Elijah came unto all the
people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD
be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people
answered him not a word.” How long will we linger in indecision,
standing mute before Almighty God?
In
the New Testament, Paul stated that there was a time when God
overlooked our ignorance. Acts 17:29, “Forasmuch then as we are the
offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto
gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. 30 And the
times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men
every where to repent: 31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the
which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he
hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that
he hath raised him from the dead.” When a man comes to the
understanding of the Truth, he is then held accountable for that
Truth. God has pleaded with this world in generation after generation
to accept His gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. “...but now
commandeth all men every where to repent:” The result has been a
response of stone-cold rejection to His love and mercy by the
majority of people. God is preparing to bring every thought and deed
into His eternal judgment. “...Because he hath appointed a day, in
the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom
he hath ordained;...” That day is swiftly approaching!
It’s
time to decide how we want to finish our journey! We must take a
stand for the Truth of God’s Word in this generation. It’s time
to stand up and be counted as a people who preach, teach and live by
the Truth of God’s Word. Responsible To Teach Our Children The
Truth!
