Don't Close Your Eyes

“They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

“He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

Matthew 25

In a time of acceleration, both natural and supernatural,

there is no yet no place for anyone male or female, old or young, rich or poor, to  cast aside such as those in this video.

For we are all one in the body of Christ.

There is neither Jew no Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male nor female, for we are all one in Christ Jesus.

Galatians 3:28

Beloved - My heart is grieved.

As I watch this video and others like it. As I read the news from across the world about the torture of fellow believers. My heart is pained as if I could feel a sword pierce it through. 

Here in America we have not yet begun to feel the pain of tribulation. Yet it has begun, none the less. Not here so much. 

Oh we think because we can't pay our credit card bills. Or we loose our homes. Tribulation has begun.

This is traumatic. Don't get me wrong. Economic hardship soon to be disaster is in fact traumatic. Still, it is nothing like what our brothers and sisters in the Lord are face with and going through every day - all over the globe.

So much of the time - I have been guilty of it as well - we read about and desire, what we like to term, "The church of the book of Acts" ,

Acts chapter 2 It may just be me, but I have notice a bit of imbalance when I hear teaching on this chapter. Seems the focus gets stuck on the fun and exciting, Pentecostal, Holy Ghost Fire portion. You know where the book of Joel is quoted and speaks of in the last days?

“‘In the last days, God says,
    I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
    your young men will see visions,
    your old men will dream dreams.
 Even on my servants, both men and women,
    I will pour out my Spirit in those days,
    and they will prophesy.
 I will show wonders in the heavens above
    and signs on the earth below,
    blood and fire and billows of smoke.
 The sun will be turned to darkness
    and the moon to blood
    before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.
 And everyone who calls
    on the name of the Lord will be saved.’" 

Which is awesome! Don't misunderstand me.

I like fun and exciting,Pentecostal, Holy Ghost Fire as much as the next God's Girl! My thing here is that there is a reason for all that Fire and Fun in the Holy Ghost!  If we travel on down to the next paragraph we will see......it leads us to  "The Fellowship of the Believers"in verse 42. Which brings me back to the video and all of our Suffering Siblings in Christ across the globe.

^"42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. ⁴³ Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.⁴⁴ All the believers were together and had everything in common. ⁴⁵ They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. ⁴⁶ Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts,⁴⁷ praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved."

"Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ."

Galatians 6:2

"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people."

Ephesians 6:18

This is most definitely a serious post. I will be surprised if 2 outta 10 read it all the way through. I will be even more surprised if I get a single like.  That is okay. I didn't post it for likes or for views. Or to be nice. 

I am in the same boat as anyone else. I am preaching to myself here.

Can we ? Should we ?  Each one, sell all our possessions and exit stage left or right and leave America to help our foreign Sufferings Siblings in Christ?

This is not at all what I am saying.

Some will be called to do so. I personally know many who have done just that.

I know this Missionary in Pakistan. I know Missionaries in Africa and in Albania and in Russia and in Japan and in China and South America. All over.

We may not be the ones to go - but - we are the ones to pray - the ones - to give.

Remember what Jesus said,

"'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me."

So

This is a photo taken after the over 200 homes of Christians where methodically burned to the ground.
It was a planned attack. The Islamist used certain chemicals that would assure that everything in and outside the homes would burn completely.

Please visit my friend and our brother in the Lord's FaceBook page to see the wonderful work he is doing in the Name of the Lord!

Below are just a few pictures. Just a few.

But please. Please.

Life's Answer

..."...."I found the man I love.

I took hold of him

and would not let him go..."

Song of Solomon 3

There is no other to satisfy

Only in Him will love be found

In Him alone can I love

He who G-d has given me to love

I have searched the world through

I found


Life’s Answer

I was lost and alone, dazed and confused,

Looking for something exciting and new;

I had done everything I had known to do,

climbed the highest mountain; I’d searched the world through.

Still I had found I hungered to be fed,

For more than this life of grandeur I lead.

It was as if I were driven to find the way,

to where I am now today.

I couldn’t put my finger on it, what it was I heard.

 I don’t know that it was one particular word.

All I know is that one-day,

I heard this man speak the most incredible words and say,

“For God so loved the world that he gave his Only Son;”

  That moment, I knew what had to be done.

I didn’t wait another moment. I fell down on my knees.

 I asked God to forgive me and set me free.

I’m not lost, alone, dazed or confused any more.

 I let Jesus in my heart’s door.

My life is exciting and brand new!

 I found life’s answer after searching the world through.
