The greatest of these....

What will endure when all else fails? What covers all wrong doing and sin? What casts out all fear?.........LOVE. God's love. True love. Not romantic love, or something that comes from human flesh; I am talking about Love that comes from above. It is supernatural...Jesus displayed this love when he came to earth as a man, when he touched and healed the masses, when he died on the cross for a world that for the most part was rejecting him, when he asked the Father to forgive those who were crucifying him, when he told the women at his empty tomb to "But be going; tell the disciples and Peter, He goes before you into Galilee; you will see Him there, [just] as He told you." Here he personally mentions Peter, the disciple who had denied him not three days earlier. He showed his love when he sent the Holy Spirit to teach, guide, comfort and empower us.


God is love. 1 John 4:8 says "Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. Love is not something you can muster up with your own strength, wisdom or feelings. It comes from above and will consume you, heal you, and flow out of you. It is love that is given freely, just for the sake of giving, asking nothing in return. It is this love we must be filled with in these evil days.

The bible says in Matthew 24:12-13, "Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved."

We must be filled with the love of God. Love covers a multitude of sin.
In the last days as evil increases and according to 2 Timothy 3:2-4, "People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good,treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God--". Notice the phrase "without love" in the scripture above.

This love, the love that comes from God, is patient, is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. (1 Cor. 13)

I don't know about you, but when I read this, I think there is no way I can do this. And I am right. I....cannot do it on my own, but with God all things are possible. He can fill a vessel, me, you, with His love and change the world, one person at a time. We must be filled with his love and cling to our Savior, it is our only hope!

God bless you, fill you, and keep you until his coming!

The Cross

Are you alive or dead? If you are reading this post I assume you are alive. I am not speaking about physically alive or dead, but spiritually. To be alive spiritually you must be born again, which means you have surrendered your life to Jesus Christ and asked him to forgive you for your sins.

After we as Christians become born again, we must then begin the walk of death. What am I talking about? Paul said in "I die daily" in 1 Cor. 15:31, and in Romans 8:36 Paul talks about facing death every day. Did he merely mean hardships and trials. I do not believe so. I believe he was also talking about dying to his flesh. To the desires of his flesh, whether pride, lust, greed, and even his very will.

This daily dying is a life long process. We must take up our cross and follow Jesus and on that cross die "daily".

When Jesus died upon his cross, He was poured out for the whole world. His blood purchased for us everything we could ever need, including the price for our redemption. But he could only be poured out once he was upon the cross.

I hear a midnight cry going out, run to the cross, embrace it, die there, die to everything except the will of God. Let even who you have always been, your personality, your desires, your dreams, your knowledge and wisdom...let it all die there...then.....

You too will be poured out for others. You will be used by God as a life being poured out for his glory.

We cannot run from the cross anymore. Now is the time to weep and mourn and fast in sackcloth and ashes. Now is the time to cling to our cross as the key to open the door of true life in the present and future. The key of David.

Matthew 16:24-25 says "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
