We Must Stand for The WORD!!!! We Must Pray

We are at a cross roads in this nation. Not as a nation, but as The Church in this nation. This nation has chosen her path. Many churches have chosen to side with the enemy and the secular society that  we have become.

Many are asking, what the church can do. Many are still looking toward government and politicians to change things. What an error. How sad it is, that much of the church has become so political,so secular, so out of touch with The Spirit of God, that they are blinded to the most simple spiritual truths.

As I read several different post on a couple social media outlets, I was both troubled and encouraged. I was troubled that there are so many in the church, that claim to be spirit filled Christians, that have embraced the moral compass of a secular and sinful society. There seems to be a growing number of Christians that feel they can pick and choose what to believe in The WORD. Just as troubling, there are even more that feel that a politician or party will be this nations saving grace.

Here is a warning:We must know who we are. We must know The  Word. We must not mistake grace and love for lasciviousness and paganism. It is frightening how many Christians who claim to be spirit  filled, bible believing Christians have more of a pagan view point on sin and salvation.

We must pray. We must clearly define ourselves. We must clearly define what The Word says on the issues that are trying to taint The Church.

We must be on guard! We must not allow a pagan, secular spirit to poison The Church! We must pray and believe that The Spirit of God will heal OUR LAND..The CHURCH.

As a Watchman on The Wall, The Lord has revealed to me today the snare, and the enemy at the gates. But He has also revealed The Answer.

2 Chronicles 7:14

Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁴ If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves, pray, seek, crave, and require of necessity My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.

And also this from a Brother in India: 

Prince Caleb Son

 Prayer,Hope

No ocean can hold it back.
No river can overtake it.
No whirlwind can go faster.
No army can defeat it.
No law can stop it.
No distance can slow it.
No disease can cripple it.
No force on earth is more powerful or effective
... than the power of prayer.
May your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord, even as we put our hope in you. Psalm 33:22

May we heed the warning and seek His Face. May we not allow what the mixture of Paganism and Filth did to the early church, do the same to the Church today. The enemy doesn't much mind religious organizations, he poisoned them long ago. He fears the Spirit Filled Church and wants to pervert it like he did once before. He fears a Church that knows the Word and is free from sin.

Be sober! Be on guard! Be vigilant!

Blind Faith, Untested Faith, Fare Weather Faith will not stand when you come to the place where it seems He will not come through, there will be no miracles, there will be no breakthrough. Some people say Raw Faith is needed, got to be a faith man!!! Sometimes I wonder if these people have ever been really tested.


The faith that is needed at this point is simple faith, when year after year has turned, season after season has changed, prayer after prayer seems to have fallen to the ground for yourself, yet have produced a harvest for others.


You have tried everything to change things. You have done all you know to do. You have gone over in your mind a million times what you could have done differently, what you did right,what you did wrong. Did you make God mad about something..did you miss it.


The only conclusion your natural mind can come up with is that He doesn't care. That those things that are precious to your heart,good things, deep things about family and life, that you have sown for and stood for, are not coming. So many can't come, the time has past, and nothing can bring that season back. So why bother???????


Why bother praying any longer for The Body? Why bother going to church? Why bother caring and praying for people that already walk in those things that are seemingly being with held from you.

There are many text book answers to these questions. Many will answer these questions with an answer that you have heard over and over. Some will say it is self focus, just look outside yourself, love others. All would be true, but none fill the void of those things that your heart longs for, that your soul needs.

So it comes down to just simple faith and three questions.


Is He Good?
Is He faithful?
Is His WORD True?


Yes. So we stand.


We may stand with many tears, but we stand.
We may stand and be angry, but we stand.
We may stand and be hurt, but we stand.
We may stand and feel rejected, but we stand!



He will come through! He does care! He is Faithful! He has a plan! He is full of Grace! He will bring it to pass!!!!
 
So.....Be sober! Be on guard! Be vigilant!
 
Your enemy will use apathy and disappointment to lead you to a state of backsliding and destruction.


Take heart you are in good company!!!!


2 Corinthians 4:8-10

Amplified Bible (AMP)



 We are hedged in (pressed) on every side [troubled and oppressed in every way], but not cramped or crushed; we suffer embarrassments and are perplexed and unable to find a way out, but not driven to despair;


 We are pursued (persecuted and hard driven), but not deserted [to stand alone]; we are struck down to the ground, but never struck out and destroyed;


 Always carrying about in the body the liability and exposure to the same putting to death that the Lord Jesus suffered, so that the [resurrection] life of Jesus also may be shown forth by and in our bodies.
