Today's
Message: Opportunity
God
is not slack in keeping every last promise that He has made to each
of His children. He is longsuffering in His patience to us, in order
to give each of us the opportunity to know Him and then make a choice
to accept or reject Him.
There
will be a Millennium kingdom age, and time when all will
have full knowledge of Jesus Christ, and will be able to chose to
accept Him or reject Him. It will be a time of discipline, where
eternal choices will be made. “Behold,
a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in
judgment. And a man shall
be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest;
as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a
weary land. And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the
ears of them that hear shall hearken.” - Isaiah 32:1-3. A
covert is a place to hide from the storms. Whereas "the rivers
of waters in a dry place" are the waters that come from the
throne of God, which is the truth of His Word. When you drink from
that water you will never thirst again. That water is what is taught
from the Word of God by a true teacher, and not a mixture from the
traditions and doctrines of men. It will be filling like a fresh
drink of water to a starving man. Jesus Christ is that great Rock
that stands in this weary land with all of its many problems, and
when we stand upon that Rock we have a covert from worldly problems
and learn that they simply can not harm you. This is also the way it
is today and not just in the Millennium age, when you put your trust
in Him, repent and do things His way. That is His promise to
you.
The entire earth is going into Satan's one world system,
and there is no flying away to get away from it. The time is a time
of great deception, and the only path to escape is with the knowledge
and wisdom sealed away in your mind. “Come
near, ye nations, to hear; and hearken, ye people: let the earth
hear, and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come
forth of it. For the
indignation of the LORD is upon all nations, and his fury upon all
their armies: he hath utterly destroyed them, he hath delivered them
to the slaughter. Their slain also shall be cast out, and their stink
shall come up out of their carcases, and the mountains shall be
melted with their blood............Seek ye out of the book of the
LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate:
for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.
And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it unto
them by line: they shall possess it for ever, from generation to
generation shall they dwell therein.” - Isaiah 34:1-3,16,17.
The word "nations"
is the "Gentiles",
and
their armies are placed under a prophetic band, or curse. This is in
the future sense for us today, however it shall happen in our
generation. This shall happen after Satan, the king of the one world
system has returned; after Satan is worshiped as the Messiah.
The
"book
of the Lord"
is every book that is written in our Bible, God is telling you that
the end of the one world system and every evil thing shall come to an
end exactly as it is written in His Book. Prior to our generation and
the establishment of Israel as a nation, end time prophecy was left
completely up to speculation. You just could not apply it to any
other happening that was going on, except on the first two levels of
history, and the spiritual level. However, now it all has come to
light as the events are taking place right before our eyes, and the
one world system is a reality. In
Isaiah it is writing not to the individual people here, but to their
system of nations that have bound themselves together at this time.
Anytime
a system tries to drive God's teachings out, even over a long period
of time, it creates socialism and communism.
Today these systems and the men that control them are occupying the
highest position in our land, and God doesn't like it. In due time it
is God that shall do the removing of all of them, when He comes to
restore His kingdom to the earth. “Know
ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be
not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor
effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor
thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners,
shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye
are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name
of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” - I
Corinthians 6:9-11
There
is nothing old about any of God's Word, the Old Testament and the New
Testament both give forth the same documentation supporting God's
plan for the ages. The
Old Testament is what the church first studied, and it is what Paul
and the disciples taught from.
Even the blood sacrifices were fulfilled by the shed blood of Christ
on the cross, we have an example of the covering that God requires
for the sins of mankind. The blood of lambs and goats were only a
temporary covering until the true sacrifice of the promised Messiah
came and offered the most perfect sacrifice for the sins for all
times. Our Heavenly Father is the same today as He was yesterday, and
that He shall be for all eternity. Our Heavenly Father is still in
control. “Remember
them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word
of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their
conversation. Jesus
Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Be not carried
about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that
the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not
profited them that have been occupied therein.” - Hebrews
13:7-9.
Have a wonderful and blessed day/night and weekend.
TGIF!
God Bless You,
