Siding With The Lord

There is a lot of anger in our world these days.  It would seem that the loudest voices in our world today are those who have an agenda to drive out God from society itself.  Sometimes there seems to be a mob mentality in our world.  People want to be heard for one reason or another and they hop on a bandwagon of sorts so they can be heard.  There is absolutely nothing wrong at all in speaking up for something and voicing our concerns, however we need to make sure that our arguments are reasonable and logical.

We must make sure that we are not just going with the crowd without completely understanding what the crowd is standing for.  Sometimes what seems right in one's own eyes is not right at all in the eyes of God.  We are living in a day and an age where people are doing what is right in their own eyes and have no concern about what God thinks.

One day we will all stand before the true living God at the end of our lives and we will all have to give an account of the way we lived our lives here on the earth.  Whether you believe that their is a God or not doesn't matter.  We will all appear before Him for it has been appointed for people to die once then face judgment.

We have all sinned and fallen far short of God's high standards.  We have all missed the mark.  We are all off target when it comes to being right with God on our own.  We are all law breakers.  We have broken God's law.  We are all deserving of being eternally separated from God and placed into a literal hell.  There is not one of us that is good enough in our own to earn our salvation and entrance into Heaven.

Thankfully, God made a way for you and I to obtain the salvation for our souls by sending Jesus Christ into this world to save sinners like you and I.  Jesus lived a perfect and sinless life and He went obediently to the Cross where He shed His blood for our sins past, present, and future.  We must come to Jesus by faith and trust in His grace in order to be saved.  We must remember that God raised Jesus to life on the third day and He is at the right hand of the Father in Heaven and one day Jesus will return to this earth and He will bring the Kingdom of God to full completion.

We believers in Jesus Christ must persevere in our journey here on the earth as we wait for His return to the earth.  There will be difficult times ahead for we believers in Christ Jesus.  There is a growing movement in our world that is anti-God and at it's very core is an evil agenda straight from the devil himself.  The agenda may seem very innocent on the outside and even helpful, but I tell you the truth it is far from innocent.  It is actually pure evil and full of wicked intent.

We believers in Jesus Christ must stand firm upon God's Word and the truth of who the Lord is.  God will not be mocked.  We must continue to proclaim the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ so that everyone will have a chance to repent of their sins and turn to Jesus Christ for salvation before it will be too late.

We need to make sure that we are on God's side and not fighting against Him.  We must read the Bible and have discernment which comes from the Holy Spirit.  May we be reasonable and follow God and not the crowd.

Lord,
We praise Your Name.
Help us to discern right from wrong.
Help us to understand what it is You would have us to do.
Lead us and guide us into all truth through the Holy Spirit.
Give us the courage to proclaim the Gospel to those around us.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.
