Will You Be Ready?

​There is so much we see going on this world today and it all sums up to spiritual warfare. There is turmoil and mad chaos. Everywhere you turn you see that there is some type of stand or fight for some type of cause. There are civil rights activists in every avenue for this right or that right. They say this life matters and that life matters. What about the life of Christ?! Christ’s life matters and He thought that we mattered so much that He left His Heavenly abode and He showed his love for us by dying and rising again, leaving the gift of His Spirit to all who desired to receive Him. It matters that He chose his disciples and that he shaped and molded so many for our sakes. Jeremiah’s life matters. Ezekiel’s life matters. Moses life matters. The prophets’ lives that were shaped as an example to us, they mattered so that we would know how Christ desired for us to live so that we wouldn’t make the same mistakes. Is it fair that Jeremiah was told not to take a wife? Or that Ezekiel’s wife was taken as an example and the Lord told him not to even mourn? Moses got a glimpse of the promise but couldn’t go in. How many more examples do we need for us to recognize and fear the Lord our God? He is not playing. He is a jealous God and will not take half-heartedness, all or nothing is what He requires. That’s what he paid. You cannot serve two masters. When you look around you see many people that were not prepared in their day of visitation and the result is chaos because they left the hedge of protection. Yet many still refuse to surrender and call on the name of Jesus. There is a way that seems right to a man and the end is destruction. We must keep Christ as the head and surrender to His will completely in obedience with our whole heart or the nations will continue to crumble. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life. We do not have to suffer in silence when Jesus paid the ransom with His blood. The price for healing has been paid. The price for deliverance has been paid. The price for every sin, iniquity, and infirmity has already been paid on the cross and don’t have to be balanced in any budget! Some people balance everything but Christ is not in the balance and what you get is a false balance, falsehood. When your day of visitation comes, will you be ready? Or will the Lord require your life?
Psalm 32:1-2
Blessed is He whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity and in whose Spirit is no guile.
