Thought for today: The Silent Destroyer, That Will Keep You Out of Heaven
Thought for today: Matthew 5:23-24, Matthew 6:14-15, Mark 11:25-26,
I truly believe this with all my heart that there will be a multitude of people who will allow "The Silent Destroyer into their mind and lives..." I know there are people who claim to be Christians and they can shout go through all the religious motions with the best of them... And right after service will grab someone just so they can "share truth" about what Brother or Sister Zester did to them and they'll say, there is no way I am talking to them, until they come to me and apologize to me for what they have said... You know that was totally not true, they are just hypocrites. Do not let anything keep you out of Heaven! If this word incites anger in you, I urge you, with love, to apply this scripture to your life immediately. Following God's word is not a matter of convenience; it is essential to avoid falling prey to destructive forces of satan who desire is to keep you in sin. This scripture needs to be apllied to your life, not tomorrow or next week, you need to follow Gods word and obey it now, end of story. If you do not you are in danger of the destroyer taking over your life. And you will become a bitter and judgemental person full of rage and even hate, it is really dangerous because we just kinda write it off as I have a right to be like this.
I know what I am writing about because I have been there, not once but twice and you would think after the first time I would have gotten the message in these scriptures. When the Holy Spirit convicted me, I mean I bowed my neck and it was not going to happen, they are coming to me and they are going to apologize to me. I was totally disobeying God and His word. The first time I did not know what the scripture said and I was young, A short time latter Pastor was preaching on this and the Holy Spirit moved on me and I realized this is me, I got it and I left where I was at and went to this person, I asked them to forgive me for the anger and unforgiveness, and hostility I had been showing towards them, they did not even know what I was talking about. I had caused a speration between me and God big time.
Jesus is quite clear about this basic fact: we cannot be right with God until we are right with our fellow men and women. We cannot hope for forgiveness until we have confessed our sin to God, and mended our broken relations and sought reconciliation with our brothers and sisters.
I broke my right ankle and leg they healed, and that took time, but it is stronger now then it was before I broke it. Broken relationships are like my leg and ankle they can heal and become stronger than ever before. But when I the process of healing had taken place it felt good. The process of healing a broken relationship can be embarrassing, uncomfortable and painful. But when your life is in right standing with others and it aligns with Gods word it feels good.
Listen when there is a weak spot in your armor the enemy remembers where it is at, he will hit you again in that same spot, because when we do not heed the word then he wants to destroy you. King David said, "Thy word have I hid in my heart that I may not sin against thee." Psalm 119:11
If you have to memorize these settings of scripture then I encourage you to make sure you know them by heart, and when the enemy comes to attack you you can say, "It is written..."
Get up out of complacency and get into the flow of what God is doing, he loves reconciliation and restoration. Get to that point once again that Jesus becomes your heartbeat. Be willing to let go of anything and everthing that is contrary to Gods word and the commandmants written therein. And rejoice because you can have a powerful testimony of how God's grace can bring you through and restore, preparing you for your home in Heaven.
Do not let anything keep you out of Heaven!
Today, we all be mindful of the significance of prayer in our lives. Wear the Armor of God daily and pray over your mind. Blessings as you move through your day.
Have a blessed and great day!
