THE CHURCH IS SUPREMELY IMPORTANT AFTER ALL!
Our culture is floundering! Fear, hatred, political correctness, broken marriages, addiction, and so much more are growing like weeds due to the absence of a strong sense of Truth or willingness to submit to God.
Today I feel like God reminded me that what I do is super important. That what every follower of Jesus does with their life, words, friendships, and actions is super important. The world is lost and we hold on to Truth that is essential to help blind people see, dead people live, and lost people get found.
Jesus is the KING of all creation. His is the name that is above every name. His is the only name given among men by which we can be saved. One day every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
God's grace is real and changes everything. The removal of condemnation is permanent and makes joyful living possible. No shame. No guilt. Freedom in Jesus Christ alone and forever!
The Holy Spirit is with us and in us. His Presence is a constant source of Help, Comfort, and Guidance. We are not alone. We are not orphaned.
The Word of God is absolute Truth. It is without error. It is alive and active, like a double-edged sword and it divides the thoughts and intentions of our hearts. It is THE guide for life and conduct. It does not return void and is powerful in our lives.
These things matter profoundly!!! Stand tall in them. Hold fast to them. Lean into them every moment of every day. Proclaim them to your friends. This is the stuff of eternity. These are the things that empower every other valuable thing in life. Eternity hangs in the balance.
Stand tall today. Be strong today. Don't get distracted, discouraged, defeated or disqualified.
