May God have mercy on us all.
May God have mercy on us all.
Last night at church a message was preached that has stirred my soul. Please read:
We must look around and surely see the end time is near, ‘even at the door’. You’re saying, "I have heard that all my life", well I have too. But do you not see the end is here, even at the door. We must pray, as we never have before. Read God’s word and believe what we read. People in public office and on TV is denying God. People who once said they believe in God are denouncing HIM and His deity, and we ourselves are living as though we will live on this earth forever and just have a ‘good ‘ol time’.
We are going places and doing things we know not to do. Do you really think Jesus went with you into that bar where you drank yourself silly? Do you think Jesus went with you into the movie theater to watch that rated X movie, or watched that naughty video on TV? What were you thinking?
Our country is in distress. Our country is in a mess. What are we doing to make things better? How long do you really think God is going to allow this to continue? God is Supreme. He is just, and mighty. God cannot look upon sin. If you are not praying to Jesus for help, you are in a very bad state my friend. Jesus is our mediator, and if you don’t have a mediator you are lost without God in your life. A very dangerous place to be.
We are just like the people of Noah’s day and the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. You don’t think so? Read the paper, watch the news on TV, or looked at the internet. Sin is everywhere. What will you do if someone comes and points a gun to your head and tells you to denounce Jesus or die. What will you do? We MUST call on the Name of Jesus.
II Chronicles 7:14 says, "If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land."
Friends, we have got to humble ourselves and pray for our country, for our families, for our neighbors, for our very own soul. We need to ask for forgiveness. None of us is without sin. If you think you’re without sin, you are badly mistaken. We ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of the Lord. We MUST pray every day and ask for forgiveness every day. Pray, pray and then pray some more.
When was the last time you actually prayed for America? What about our soldiers and their families, or do we even care? When was the last time you went to church and listened with spiritual ears to the Word of God, or sang praises to Jesus? One day it really will be too late. Don’t wait.. Our only hope is to call on the Name of Jesus.
America was founded upon a love and trust in God. Schools were first started in America so we could read the bible. We prayed and God built America up to be the great nation she is or was. Now people in the workplace are not even allowed to say Merry Christmas. They want the CHRIST out of CHRISTmas. Department stores sell Christmas merchandise, yet refuse to say, Merry Christmas", we might offend someone.
Well I want to hear, "Merry Christmas". I want to hear Christmas songs and see nativity scenes and hear about the birth of the Jesus, the Christ child. Jesus IS the reason for this and every season.
When a man or woman walks that last hallway leading to the death chamber in prison, the minister prays with the person and then says, "May God have mercy on your soul." May God have mercy on us all and upon America, our home.
