Hello my most wonderful World Wide Family. I love you all so very much. It is great to be talking to you all again. Have you ever had times when you were going to do something that you knew was wrong and you thought twice about it, or you went ahead and did something wrong against a strong feeling that you shouldn’t do it? I’m sure we have all experienced this since we are all human and prone to mistakes and failures. Sadly, I know that I have, many times. Thankfully, now days I try to listen to the ‘voice of my conscience’. This is actually the promptings of the Holy Spirit Whose job is to lead me and guide me in God’s Will during this life’s journey. When I do listen to the Holy Spirit, I fail a lot less and have a lot more peace in my life. Praise God!
Dear LORD God Almighty. We come to You with praise, thanksgiving and worship for You. Please soften our hearts and show us Your Way. Please call all of Your people to Salvation in Jesus Christ and fill us with Your Holy Spirit and a burning desire to read Your WORD the Bible. Please remove blinders from our eyes so that we can clearly see that we are all sinners in need of You Jesus as our LORD and Savior before it is too late.
Call us to repentance, and revival, regeneration, and renewal. Help us to make the only right decision for our eternal destiny. We can tell by the happenings in the world that it is one minute until midnight and only You know when that time is LORD. Also please call us into the most awesome, personal, intimate relationship with You Jesus, being led by Your Holy Spirit while we are still living on this earth. I ask this in Jesus’ Name and thank You in advance. Amen
God tells us in His Bible that He writes His Law on our hearts. In the Old Testament God had given the Law to Moses on Tablets of Stone. God wrote those Himself on the stone tablets and He ‘writes’ on our hearts. God also created us with a ‘God shaped void’ in our hearts. This means that we are created to be fulfilled only by our personal, intimate relationship with our Creator.
JEREMIAH 31:33 AND HEBREWS 8:10 FOR THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AFTER THOSE DAYS SAYS THE LORD: I WILL PUT MY LAW IN THEIR MINDS, AND WRITE IT ON THEIR HEARTS; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE. nkjv (How great is that, an Old Testament and New Testament example of God saying the same thing to us.
EZEKIEL 36:26 I WILL GIVE YOU A NEW HEART AND PUT A NEW SPIRIT WITHIN YOU; I WILL TAKE THE HEART OF STONE OUT OF YOUR FLESH AND GIVE YOU A HEART OF FLESH.
We try to fill our void with many other things. Drugs, alcohol, illicit sexual relationships, gambling, work by overworking, stocking up on a lot of material possessions, binging on TV shows, TV series and movies, eating as in overeating, and pursuits of various pleasures, just to mention some of the things we think will fill our inner desires. I know this from experience. I did many of these in my younger years. Then as I got older there was a lot of hours spent at work and at more than one job. This had to due with the gambling addiction, spending and credit card debt that I acquired after my husband died. So many traps that lead to so many bondages. Thank God, He delivered me from all of these.
Now my temptation is at times just to ‘veg’ in front of the television. When I feel lonely or sad, or overwhelmed, I just want to ‘escape’ from those emotions. There are not very many shows that I can even allow myself to watch anymore. I have mentioned previously that I love Hospital shows, Police stories, and Fire hero stories. I always love when the ‘good guy’ wins, the patient is saved, the crime is solved and the fire is extinguished.
Now these shows include what is almost like pornography. The counselors and doctors on the shows tell patients to ‘just have sex’. We are humans with souls and spirits, intellects and emotions, not simply driven by sexual desires. The lifestyles are depicted as promoting living together instead of being married, many types of religions, different world views, alternate life styles and some shows even depict satanic cults or satan himself as heroes. No thank you!
We have all been given freedom by God to make our own choices. This is not what I choose for myself. I especially disdain all of the TV shows and movies that have people using my LORD’s Name in vain. Using God and a cuss word, or Jesus Christ as a cuss word. What are you thinking? You don’t disrespect Buddah, Mohammed, Allah, Hindu gods and others, by using their names as cuss words in your TV/movie scripts. So please don’t use my LORD’s Name in vain either.
I do turn on Christian TV=TBN. I love to watch those who are preaching God’s WORD. I also have Pure Flix instead of Netflix. They have many Christian movies and shows, and some shows that are just decent. I also watch these on YouTube when there are some available. “The Chosen” series is Awesome. You should watch it. Also go to the movies to see The “Jesus Revolution”, so Great!! I try to give my support by attending Christian movies at the theaters when they are showing. Sometimes they only show for a few days and certain hours. Imagine that! It used to be the more controversial movies that were limited, now it is movies about God. What kind of world are we living in now!?
I am well aware that I do not know when I will take my last breath here on earth and then take my next one in Heaven with my LORD. I want to tell the whole world, (this is you), about Jesus our LORD, and about realizing that we are all sinners in need of our Savior. We need to repent of our sins=turn away from them and turn to God. Ask Him to forgive us and change our lives. That is what He does. That is what God’s Only Son, Jesus Christ died for at the Cross of Calvary. (Then He arose at His Resurrection!) Please make this choice for your eternal destiny before it is too late. Only you can make the choice, this is the way that God created us. I was not living my life for God at a young age. I was the biggest sinner that I knew. I loved partaking in some of these very things that I am now speaking out against. I am eternally thankful to Jesus that He changed me and He changed my heart’s desires to be His desires. I went to God as I was, so full of sin, and He loved me too much to leave me that way. He teaches me everyday. We never stop learning or growing in the LORD.
2 CORINTHIANS 3:18 BUT WE ALL, WITH UNVEILED FACE, BEHOLDING AS IN A MIRRIOR THE GLORY OF THE LORD, ARE BEING TRANSFORMED INTO THE SAME IMAGE FROM GLORY TO GLORY, JUST AS BY THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD.
MATTHEW 24:35, 36 HEAVEN AND EARTH WILL PASS AWAY, BUT MY, (JESUS), WORDS WILL BY NO MEANS PASS AWAY. 36 BUT OF THAT DAY AND HOUR NO ONE KNOWS, NOT EVEN THE ANGELS OF HEAVEN, BUT MY FATHER, (GOD), ONLY. nkjv
PSALM 37:3-5 TRUST IN THE LORD, AND DO GOOD, DWELL IN THE LAND, AND FEED ON HIS FAITHFULNESS. 4 DELIGHT YOURSELF ALSO IN THE LORD, AND HE SHALL GIVE YOU THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART. 5 COMMIT YOUR WAY TO THE LORD, TRUST ALSO IN HIM, AND HE SHALL BRING IT TO PASS. nkjv
Until we get to talk again, please remember that I love you and am always praying for you and all of your generations. Most importantly, Jesus love you.
