Amazing Times

We live in an amazing time for Christianity! We are on the edge of the Great Commission being fulfilled in our generation. Right now in the United States we celebrate a government that is tolerant to our Christian values and views. Many laws that have stood in the way of biblical morality may be changed very soon. The doors are opening wide for the church to stand tall and impact our nation and the world for the cause of Christ!
Rhetoric will not do the job.  Active obedience of going into the world and sharing the gospel is required. The church is the only institution that God has given His Word and the command to be His hands and feet as well as voice. We now have no excuse for not getting the job done! International change begins with individual change. Church as usual will not get the job done. Preaching and teaching "heart warming" sermons will not work. There is a call to preach the truth of the whole gospel. Sin must be dealt with, people must be loved, and the fellowship must be strengthened.
These are exciting days as we see the hand of God moving and stirring among His people. The great news is that every true believer can be used to live out the truth. You are valuable and equally important to God. Never doubt how God may use you.
This is also a call to prayer. The church must be on it's knees before it goes into the world. Nothing is done without first bathing it in prayer. We are strongest when we begin each day on our knees.
May we see much more of God's work being done because His followers are faithful!
From the Heart,
