Risking it all

Risking it all

What would you give to risk it all? Would you put your faith on the line if it meant the bread that you eat or your valuable time? How about the security that you toiled for just trying to make ends meet? When the sun comes down on each and every day and darkness descends well into the night how do you sleep knowing that you risked it all?

Are you on the treadmill of life trying to pick up your level of success due to your family ties, position, or excess... Will it ever end and what really are the goals a person may ask if they spend their whole lives building a bigger barn to hold their grain?

Where are the benefits to a pretty building, a polished car, or good clothes when in the end it is dust to dust?

The Lord God says stand still for I am about to speak. There will be a rustle, an urging and a call to hearts. That people may awaken, and know what's right. It will be a time of loss to the things that many hold dear and a time of gain and joy for the poor in spirit.

It doesn't come down to a membership inside four walls but what you can give when all alone and having left all... To the vast and varied opinion of man; the things of this world are melting away.

Instead of preserving, or saving, or increasing your return, turn to God by dying to self and the monument of life. Only in laying down your life for he who died on that cross so long ago can you see with vision into heavens abode.

It's the born again breath that keeps us alive. True in spirit one must abide. Born into slavery in this world do we exist. Chained and shackled to the lusts thereof. Only the Savior of this world can set us free. By the nails that pierced his hands and feet as the blood dripped down into the depths of this earth.

The beating of our hearts and breaths that we take are what make up the canvas of our faith as we suffer our daily toil. Working the fields and inviting others on the long and narrow road to life. The crying in our souls will come to light on that glorious day when our Savior reigns supreme and makes all things right.

But until then which is soon, are you ready to forsake all, deny yourself and follow Him?

Are you willing to risk it all no matter what the cost?

Dear all: Our suffering is a measure, a test, and a testament of love. You are a temple made without hands and set apart as Gods holy people. The temples that we worship in are spiritual and God will measure our temple.

Invite as many people to the wedding feast of the Lamb as you can and have them do the same. The time to go out into the highways and byways of life is now.

I hope to see you there in Jesus' Name.

Isaiah cha 35:
The Land and Its People Are Transformed -

    1 The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
    2 It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.
    3 Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.
    4 Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.
    5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
    6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
    7 And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.
    8 And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.
    9 No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:
    10 And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
