DIVISION. Every direction I look today there is DIVISION. Not just definable division, but in your face anger and deep seated hatred. From the late 1960's to this very day, we have watched a slow-motion removal of the "Spiritual Magnetism" of our Moral Compass. God's given internal tool that points to righteousness. As we look into the bezel to establish our direction, our reference, the compass needle is constantly moving, never remaining constant. The "Magnetism" missing is our belief and trust in God. The scary part is that what we are seeing and experiencing is not just in the United States, it is popping-up all around the globe!
It really does not take a rocket scientist or a doctor of Theology to see that what is developing is different. Something new has developed that demands attention. Chapter 12 of the Gospel of Luke was flashing like a neon sign tonight. "Be dressed in readiness, and keep your lamps lit. "Be like men who are waiting for their master when he returns from the wedding feast, so that they may immediately open the door to him when he comes and knocks.- Luk 12:35-36 I think that most of you reading know exactly what the Lord is announcing. He is really, really close and we had better be ready when the Trumpet or Shofar begins to sound. "Whether he comes in the second watch, or even in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those slaves.- Luk 12:38
Jesus was clear and to the point when he was addressing the multitudes gathered before him; Luk 12:51-53 "Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division; for from now on five members in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three. "They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law." Look around. What do you see?
Our Lord is delivering a clear warning of what is about to unfold. Do you remember that old Sailor's poem from many years ago; RED SKIES IN MORNING, SAILOR TAKE WARNING. RED SKIES AT NIGHT A SAILOR'S DELIGHT! If you have not REPENTED and received Jesus Christ as your SAVIOR, I urge you to do so today, right now, this very minute. Do not delay!
For those in whom the Spirit of God lives, open your eyes to what is demanded of you! SHARE the beauty and Glory of being BORN AGAIN. To becoming a new person through the blood of our Lord Jesus. Share with your neighbor your personal story of SALVATION. How it was that YOU CAME TO THE LORD. It is your story. It is truth. It is beauty and it should be shared. No one can tell your story like you can tell it. It happened to you. Just share it! The Lord will do the rest!!
"You too, be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour that you do not expect." -Luk 12:40
