We are in historical times. There is a move of God’s church, His people, into society; pouring the light of Christ over the worldly agendas of education, health, business and lifestyle. Christians are not to conform to the patterns of this world but are to be transformed by Holy Spirit’s renewing of our minds, so that we may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect as Christ is magnified in our day to day lives and God is glorified in our neighbourhoods and workplaces…. Wow! Thank You Lord for the commission! This is what sharing the Gospel looks like!

Friend, do you know Jesus? Are you willing to hear Holy Spirit? And if so, when you receive His wisdom, knowledge, understanding, are you willing to change your life for Christ? Will we align ourselves to His word and to His commandments when He shares with us what our attitudes and actions must be in order to live under His dominion and under His authority? May our responses be yes, yes and yes! May we be found as God’s people who have placed our lives in His hands with trust, faith and confidence knowing our hope is in Jesus Christ for there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.

Maybe thanking Christ isn’t the first thing on our minds when our feet hit the floor in the morning, the alarm goes off and we’re filled with busyness, expectations, checking social media, planning the work or school day ahead BUT take a moment to pause before you actually get up and look at the things in your life you are grateful for, you can clearly see that Jesus played a role in them and is still refining your life with Him every moment. Let’s challenge ourselves this week to just say HALLELUJAH! “Thank you” to Jesus. He died for you and me. Because of His sacrifice on the Cross we get to experience abundant and eternal life. That alone is more than enough for us to glorify Him and be grateful for every day He gives us.

God has given us everything we need to follow His direction. We were lost then Jesus found us. He is with us and equips those He calls, and He has called us to be His Kingdom people.Ephesians 4:1-7 NASB1995 “Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love, being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all. But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift.”

This is Thanksgiving Weekend where we live and there is much to be grateful for. Even when circumstances are not good, even when the future seems dark, we cleave to Jesus Christ and are thankful. Many despise the great gift of the cross, where the holy, pure, and perfect Saviour paid the ransom and bore the sin, the dirt, and the weakness of humanity. If we meditate on all that God has done to give His people salvation, perhaps you will come to understand the greatness of Christ’s sacrifice. If you come to see the pain in His heart, knowing that even after suffering and dying for all, many would reject and despise Him, then perhaps you will come closer to understanding the greatness of His self-giving for which we give thanks.

We Trust Jesus
Our Saviour Jesus Christ is the all-conquering king of kings and the Lord of hosts and we as His people will not be afraid or affected by chaos around us because the Holy Spirit who is in us is greater than he who is in the world. It is The presence of God who makes us whole, healthy, and strong. When we are connected with God, we know Him, we know His voice, we trust Jesus and gladly follow Him along the narrow path, redeemed by a beautiful relationship with the Saviour, empowered by His presence to share the truth of the Gospel, that God sent His Son Jesus Christ, God in human flesh, into our world. Jesus lived a perfectly righteous life and then, on the cross, suffered sin's hellish penalty on behalf of all of those who believe in Him. Jesus died, rose again in triumph, and now sits at the right hand of the Father. And it is because of Jesus we can approach the giants of life with the same godly courage that David did in his battle with Goliath. The physical and spiritual giants of depression, suicidal thoughts, addiction, financial crisis, or any other attack cannot stand against God when we accept His mighty outstretched hand, repent of our sin and believe in the only One who saves. Now is the time brothers and sisters. Will you pick up your cross and follow Jesus.

You too, Be ready. There is an enemy agenda to cause division or diversion or both, to create havoc and redirect our lives from walking in step with Jesus, to leave us unprepared for Christ’s return by whispering lies that only lead to destruction and If the enemy cannot reach us there, it will divert our attention to things that are temporary, sin that grieves Holy Spirit, choices that draw us away from God’s kingdom.. it we have eternal Hope! Thank You God for Your salvation, Your mercy and forgiveness! Christ is the returning King, we are His people, may we continue to seek His presence and learn to recognize the sound of His voice, the good Shepherd, as we fix our gaze on Jesus.

Matthew 24:4-8 NASB “And Jesus answered and said to them, See to it that no one misleads you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will mislead many. You will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes. But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs”

Psalms 33:18-21 NASB Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, On those who hope for His lovingkindness, To deliver their soul from death And to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waits for the Lord; He is our help and our shield. For our heart rejoices in Him, Because we trust in His holy name.

Joel 2:28-32 NASB1995 “It will come about after this that I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind; And your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Even on the male and female servants I will pour out My Spirit in those days. I will display wonders in the sky and on the earth, blood, fire and columns of smoke. The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. And it will come about that whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be delivered; For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as the Lord has said, even among the survivors whom the Lord calls.”

God is almighty and holy, and to Him be glory and majesty, dominion and authority and when we filter those words through the finished work of Christ on the cross, we know that I’m only seeing the slightest piece of what awaits us in the eternity to come.

Jesus will return quickly: Revelation 22:12 - If we are true followers of Christ the imminent return of our Lord and Saviour is our hope and comfort in a darkening world, we will stay true to Jesus, we will not turn away from God, we will not quench the Holy Spirit but instead prepare with anticipation. Knowing that Jesus will return at any moment should not make us slack in our witness or apathetic to holiness in our lives. It should encourage us to live for His glory. There will come a day, and soon, where we will stand before Him. Will you or won’t you accept Christ’s invitation of salvation? Will you be found with praise on your lips or despair in your heart.

This world needs Jesus Christ. Why? because we are all sinners who have fallen short, who cannot, no matter how hard we try, save ourselves from the just punishment of our sin. We need Jesus because He is the way, the truth, the life and only He can reconcile our broken relationship with God. We must have Jesus as our Saviour. Without His sacrifice on the Cross we were eternally separated from God, trapped in the consequences of choosing sin instead of living for God’s kingdom. Jesus Christ is the only one who saves.

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?

While the world is unpredictable, Jesus’ promise to be with us through the breaking, the healing, the restoration can be counted on and trusted. No matter the outcome, Jesus remains steady, a Rock to comfort and sustain, to lift us out of the pit and and place us in eternity.

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.

May we be His people who remember that God’s goodness, forgiveness and mercy follow us all the days of our lives, hallelujah! In fact have you made the decision yet to lay your crown at the feet of Jesus and know Christ your personal Saviour? There is no more a perfect time than right now. 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.
