LOOKING FOR CHRIST WHERE EVER WE TURN
Greetings in the name of Jesus:
Mark 13:21-23 "At that time if anyone says to you, look, here is the Christ! or look there is the Christ! do not believe it for false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and miracles to deceive the elect if that were possible. So be on your guard; I have told you everything ahead of time."
Once again the Lord tells us to be on our guard for the enemy will do everything that he can to deceive us, and that includes performing such deception as appearing to work miracles and do signs that would cause us to believe that the things we see are coming from God. My dear ones I am convinced that the enemy will be a part of the pruning process of the church in these last days. There are so many who have taken a ride with the church to pretend to be a part of a righteous group of people; but who themselves are playing a very dangerous game with God's Spirit.
Christ tells us that God is not fooled by our deceitful tricks and lies as men and women; God reads the very intent of our heart for a good reason, it is because He cannot trust what we say. I really think that is very true about Christians in the church as well. Many of us like Peter are not able to stay true to what we say to Christ because we are much weaker than we let on. The fact is just as Christ Himself said; as a man, I can do nothing without the power of the Holy Spirit guiding me. It is this message that we need the most in this life because we cannot even follow God on our own or have the kind of faith in Christ we need without the power of the Holy Spirit beeing alive and at work within us.
Our very breath is not ours but belongs to God. At some time God has told us that He intends to come back to collect our spirits and sort out all of the wheat from the weeds from among us. We are living in some very difficult times that require much from us for these pressures and deceits will not grow less in time, but will only get stronger and more fear ice as time goes by. So many of us have not understood the real story line of God's intent of heart is not to save the world. God is not a tree hugger, and He is not coming back to make this world green again. He is coming back to save those who have proven to Him that they can love Him with a true, and real love. He is coming back to judge the remainder of those who have rejected His love and sacrifice. God is coming back to finish the plan of Salvation that He started so long ago. This whole thing has been put together so that God can find out who among us is truthful and honest with Him.
We need to make a decision about God in our life that will be an eternal choice as to how we will spend the eternity that is ahead of us. There is so much noise out there right now about where to find God that we cannot allow ourselves to be distracted from this one very simple task of making a decision about what we will do with Christ. Jesus has told us about all of this ahead of time so that we would not be confused. It is my prayer that we all would stay focused on this very simple task, and help one another to achieve the power of God's discernment through the days ahead. May you richly bless God through your life in Him.
