Could It Be??? 8/24/21
Ephesians 6:12 (KJV)
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Herschel Walker on Senate bid: ‘I can’t sit on the sidelines anymore.’
So read the most headline from my local and ONLY “news” paper today, Wednesday, August 24, 2021.
AMEN AND AMEN-Neither can WE Christians who “ATTEMPT” to serve, follow and obey the Lord Jesus Christ “sit on the sidelines anymore!!!!”
AGAIN, my humble apologies for the lack of consistency in my weekly postings of my sermons-I have been struggling with my own personal issues and illnesses.
These are INDEED “perilous times!!!!!!”
2 Timothy 3:1 (KJV)
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
As I drove home from picking up little Amanda's dinner/lunch? From the “old folks home/senior center” I received a call from a beloved friend and confidant in the Lord.
His cry was the STRESS he was under-stress UN-felt and unbeknownst to him in all his many days on this haven we call earth.
Perhaps, YOU reading this today can “feel” his distress????
As a Pastor of 40 plus years and Christian of 50 plus, I indeed do “FEEL” his pain.
Although I have preached innumerable sermons on the SOON COMING OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, and have heard thousands and thousands of sermons proclaiming same, I am SHOCKED at the swiftness of current events!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beloved, our wonderful Bible is RAPIDLY unfolding right before our very eyes and WE are stunned..................................................
In the wee hours of last Saturday night, after another exhausting day of worry and struggle, I HEARD the Sweet Voice of my Savior whisper softly to me:
Ephesians 6:12 (KJV)
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Instantly, instinctively I knew and recognized the Lord's Voice and have spent the days since struggling to more fully understand and comprehend what our Savior was telling me.
I knew I was to preach this Word of the Lord but was unable to muster the strength to do so last Sunday.
Oftentimes, you “mere” lay people may think you are UN-important to God and/or that God does not or RARELY speaks to you or through you.......................
But YOU are dead wrong!!!
Jesus said:
Matthew 11:25 (KJV)
25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.
Matthew 21:16 (KJV)
16 And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
My dear friend asked of me a deep question:
“If what is occurring today in our headlines, could it be God that is orchestrating the CURRENT EVENTS???????”
SELAH-THINK ABOUT THIS::
Acts 5:34-40 (KJV)
34 Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;
35 And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.
36 For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.
37 After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
38 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:
39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.
40 And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
Beloved, could it be God?????
Acts 5:39 (KJV)
39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.
Revelation 12:12 (KJV)
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
Could it be that the devil “knoweth that he hath but a short time.........???”
SELAH!
