Strengthen the things that remain... a command written in a message from Jesus to the church in Sardis, a church that looked full and flourishing, which was described as having a reputation for being alive but was actually spiritually dead. Jesus is urging the church to wake up, recognize their spiritual decline, and work to strengthen what little faith and good works remained, this is written in the Holy Scriptures! The warning to the church in Sardis then is absolutely relevant today, Christ is sounding the alarm to believer’s facing spiritual or moral decline. It calls for a conscious effort to preserve and build upon what is still fuelled by faith and strength in Christ, rather than succumbing to apathy or despair. We don’t get to know the time of Christ’s return but we do know He is coming. Where will you be found when He arrives?

There is a misconception that the arrival of our final breath on earth can be negotiated; giving false hope that there is still time to postpone commitment to Jesus Christ. millions of people continue to dismiss God, His guidance, His grace, and His coming judgment, but this lie has an expiry date. The Scriptures teach that before the flood of Noah’s time most people held to that position of dismissal too, then again, maybe you do believe Jesus Christ is returning and acknowledge you are a sinner in need of a Saviour, knowing there will be a reckoning, but still living out these days on your own terms and timetable. May we be reminded that Jesus Christ, the Messiah, the Saviour, preached the day of His return is coming and we must be ready.

If you already have, thank Jesus for His life that is woven into the fabric of your story with each breath you breathe. We are not forsaken. We lack nothing in Him. He is the Saviour, the soon returning King, the good Shepherd.

God’s glory is evident, just look out your window and witness His creation on the move. As His people, we too shine God’s light when believers walk by faith and overcome in the name of Jesus, believing that He has set us free and given man the choice to serve Him or turn from Him. Woe to those who do not take the outstretched hand of Christ. Without Jesus, nothing else matters. This is not opinion, this is God’s Word.

As believers, we build our lives on the foundation of Jesus Christ. There are many false teachings and false prophets who stray from the Word of God. Without a strong foundation in Christ many will be tempted and turn away from their faith. How can we have a firm foundation? Pray in the Holy Spirit, study and read the word of God, and be active in fellowship with other believers. Ask the Holy Spirit to lead our lives, teach us, and bring us to the truth. Come to the Lord in prayer and worship and enter into His presence with thanksgiving as God calls us to live in total submission to Him, not carried about by every wind of doctrine but anchored in the Truth of Jesus Christ.

Believe in and follow Jesus Christ who continues to tell you His message of truth, redemption, salvation and sanctification, read the Bible and hear His messengers; the prophets, evangelists, and apostles who first put to paper the Holy Scriptures recording God’s warnings that there is a very real danger bearing down upon mankind. A real peril threatening humanity. We cannot sleep the night away while sin is trying to seduce us into ignoring God. Brothers and sisters wake up, do not continue to hit the snooze button.

As a rush of wind, in those tongues of flame, the Holy Spirit came and filled the disciples fifty days after Easter and as a result, the early Church erupted and thousands came to know Christ as their Saviour through those historical days of the Spirit’s outpouring as God established His church. The Holy Spirit was with them and He is with us. the same Spirit who was present when the foundations of the earth were laid as recorded in the book of Genesis, the same Spirit by whom our Savior was conceived and written of in the book of Matthew, the same Holy Spirit that was with Jesus every day of His life on earth, that same Spirit spoken of in John 1 who came and made His dwelling place with the sons of men, you and me, arrived on Pentecost. Oh Lord we give You all the praise, all glory and honour to You Mighty God, thank You for Your Spirit.

Ezekiel 33:11 NASB say to them, ‘As I live!’ declares the Lord God, ‘I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn back, turn back from your evil ways!’The instruction, command, to turn back is to repent, it’s a summons from Holy Spirit to a personal, absolute and ultimate unconditional surrender to God as Sovereign. As we repent we make a complete change of direction and cling to Jesus, friend, it is a decision to let go of all that grieves God, all that distracts and dulls our senses to His presence, do not be fooled by what culture labels harmless fun, God is clear in the Scriptures what He expects of His children and when we walk in His will we are free indeed.

In every stone structure, there’s going to be one stone that is most important, a particular stone that is laid first, and it is to ensure that the building is properly aligned and stable. It is the rock upon which the weight of the entire project rests. This is the cornerstone and throughout the Scriptures we both see and hear of Jesus Christ being the Chief Cornerstone. It’s so important for us to realize that all alignment and stability, for both the individual believer and the body of Christ as a whole, will require being firmly built upon Jesus Himself and all that He taught, all that He sacrificed and all He accomplished for His people.
