WAKE UP! WAKE UP! ...


I suppose there is not very many of us that have not had the experience of trying to wake someone up out of a deep sleep whether it is for work, school, important event, etc.  The common denominator here is urgency! Usually, it is because we do not want them to miss wherever it is, they are supposed to be.

I do not know about you, but I do not want anyone to miss “heaven”.  Therefore, I am not calling on lost people to” WAKE UP”, I am calling on us the church, the family of God to “WAKE UP”. 

I love the quote in the picture above.  “God isn’t going to rewrite the Bible just for your generation.  His word remains the same forever and always.”  Also, translated, yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

So, let us be honest with one another if you proclaim to believe God’s Word is infallible.  There is a lot of righteous anger you are experiencing regarding the absolute evil and wickedness that is abounding in our society and world today.  You are not angry of over the “grey” areas of scripture.  You are angry over the red, black, and white areas of scripture that are being violated in our society today.  Me too.

When Jesus ran the money changers out of the temple, He was expressing a righteous anger.  They were making a mockery of God’s house of prayer.   Today, we live in a society that makes a mockery of Gods creation of male and female, His plan for marriage and family, etc. 

You want to overcome the darkness abounding in the world right now?  Then light up!  Ground yourself in His Word, yield to His Holy Spirit, and believe everything JESUS CHRIST accomplished on the cross at calvary and resurrection day!!  He delivered you from the wrath of God, out of the darkness, forgave your sins past, present, and future.  Bore your shame!  He came to dwell in you through the person of the Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit that guides us into all truth, leads us in the way we should go, convicts us of our sin, helps us exercise our spiritual gifts (Christ in us and through us) and much more!

Wake Up!  Wake Up!  The spiritual battle is on!  The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy.  We see it in our relationship with God, in our marriages, in our families, in our children’s lives.  Wake Up Church!  Wake Up! 

Light up!  How?  By abiding in Him the source of all light!  Light dispels darkness, always!!!

Speak truth in love but do speak truth!  Why speak truth and why stand for it?

Romans 10:14 (Amplified)

But how will people call on Him whom they have not believed?  And how will they believe in Him of whom they have not heard?  And how will they hear without a preacher (messenger)?

If the last year has taught us anything it is...People Need The LORD!!!
