The Last Days
But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 1 Timothy 3:1
This is a simple but very powerful scripture, how would you describe the state of the world these days? Jesus described the days leading up to the tribulation as a women about to go into labor. Without Jesus it would be easy to feel hopeless, but thru him we have eternal life and know we have a better final destination.
People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God- 1 Timothy 3:2-4
Doesn’t this pretty much sum up society today? A society where taking selfies is a household chore, where money is the new God , where marriage is an old fashioned ritual…

The Problem With God and Jesus
Throughout our current series, I have been trying to answer all the major obstacles to faith in God. We covered evolution. We covered doubts. We covered suffering. At the end of the day though, I believe whole heartedly that today’s word is at the heart of every other objection to following God: why Jesus?
See, I have heard many different people tell me they can believe in God the Creator of all, but following Jesus poses problems for them. First, there are all the physical things that hang them up: how can a man come back from the dead? How can someone have a baby as a virgin? Are the sick really healed instantly? I find this argument amusing because the God of the Old Testament did those things regularly too. That is beside the point though. The second problem people face with Jesus is his claim that you can…

Seek and Ye Shall Find
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.Matthew 7:7-8
Do you say I don’t understand God? Jesus tells us to seek him and we find him. So are you aggressively seeking God? If you knock he will open the door.
Seeking God is comparable to our everyday lives. Say you want to be a doctor, do you just become a medical expert instantly? No you seek the medical knowledge in books and thru others. The same is with God, if you want to really know him, seek the knowledge in The Bible already giving to us.
Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Matthew 7:9-11
God is our heavenly father and just as we parents want to give the best to our children, he wants to give the best to you. However just like with rebellious children we have free will. If you want to go your own way and not rely on God, he’s not going to stop you. But when you come back like the Prodigal Son he will receive you with open arms.
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. Matthew 7:12
Do unto others as we would want done unto us, we probably heard this as kids but this is actually a commandment from God. You want people to be nice to you be nice to them, I know people are not always receptive but God knows your heart. Just as If you seek God he will seek you.
And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13
Notice God says is you search for me with all your heart, are you seeking God with all your heart or just giving it little or no effort? Find God and you will find Peace, Purpose, Strength and most importantly eternal life in Jesus Name Amen
According to Gods Word
The Watchman
Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; Ezekiel 33:3
The “Watchmen” in Biblical days was a very important role, they often stood on a Hightower and watched over the city for trouble, such as enemy attacks. This is very symbolic how God wants his prophets to warn people of the dangers and judgements coming to them
With the rebellion in America its no surprise that we can expect judgement coming upon America. Be alert and stay on guard for the return of our King and Savior Jesus
Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. Ezekiel 33:4
Many will mock and laugh at the“Watchman” but God made it clear, if you dismiss his warning you are at fault. It’s important to take Gods Word seriously, he is your creator, remember that? He gave us life and he can also take away our life.
But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand. Ezekiel 33:6
The Watchman has a big responsibility, to warn and prepare people for the coming of Gods judgment. If he fails to warn them, all who lost there lives will be on him. Don’t take Gods calling or his warning lightly, there are serious consequences to anyone who ignores Gods Word
So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me. Ezekiel 33:7
God uses Watchmen to speak for him, are you listening? Or are you ignoring the signs of warnings of the end times?
Just as in the days of Noah, everyone was partying and mocking him until the very day the rain started (Matthew 24:36-37) Don’t be caught off guard be ready at all times for the return of Jesus. If he comes and you are not ready, keep your lamps lit, listen to the “Watchmen” in Jesus Name Amen

The Lord Your Healer
Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. Acts 3:60.
You see a homeless guy on the street, maybe you ignore him, and maybe you throw him a few dollars. But what if you did what Peter did and gave him the gift of Jesus Christ?
Money isn’t going to save this man’s life, its not going to save your life. But Jesus has the power not only to heal but to renew us.
But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour. Matthew 9:22
A woman who was sick for 12 years knew that if she could only be touched by Jesus she would be healed. Jesus recognized her faith and healed her instantly.
Could it be your lack of faith is preventing a miracle for you today? After Jesus rose from the dead and ascended into Heaven, he left us with the gift of the Holy Spirit.
To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit 1 Corinthians 12:9
There are seven gifts giving to us thru the Holy Spirit, healing is one of them. So even though Jesus is in Heaven right now, we can still be healed here on Earth in his name.
You are not powerless and defeated God is still with us thru the Holy Spirit. But your faith determines your miracles. Is there anything not possible for God?
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. Isaiah 53:5
By the stripes of Jesus Christ we are healed, so why are you still acting defeated? Instead of complaining to God about your problems, you need to start professing the victory that Jesus has already won for you, activate your faith in Jesus Name Amen
Dear Heavenly Father,
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ by his stripes we are healed, by our faith we are healed
The same power that rose Jesus from the dead is living inside of us thru your Holy Spirit
Greater is he living inside of me then he that is living in the world
Restore us Lord Heal us Lord Let your will be done
In Jesus Name Amen
Unashamed of Jesus
