My thought, take it or leave it.

Just a thought:
With the elections quickly approaching, and the liberal media screaming who should win, with Christian organizations up in arms over who stands for God's word, with homosexuality rampant, with babies being murdered and the elderly discarded, I have to take solace in one thing.
Jesus is coming back.
It's been preached for years, I know, I know. But I look to the stories of God's ways in the Bible and I have to say, we are closer than any other generation to His coming.
I'm not referring to Israel becoming a nation, although that is a fulfillment of prophecy. Or the red calf that was born and is now being bred in preparation for the sacrifices. I'm not even referring to the non stop earthquakes. Don't believe that? Click here: http://www.iris.edu/seismon/
I'm looking in the Word and in each case of a deliverance of a people there was a massive sweep of death for babies. Remember Moses? The devil knew deliverance was coming, and 2000 Hebrew babies paid the toll for it. How about Jesus? Once again, an onslaught of children ages 2 and younger, murdered by the orders of a fearful king. And now... millions of unborn babies murdered by abortion. For me, I take this tragedy and immense quantity of lives stolen means that the impending deliverance that is coming, is so much more greater, so much more powerful. I believe it's signaling the soon coming rapture of the church.
I only pray that the Church will stand up and be the voice that she is supposed to be. I try and be that voice daily. God helps me, and I am thankful that I have wisdom in all matters. I am so tired of pew sitters. Church isn't a club! It's the power of God, LIVING, RESONATING on the inside of you! I have everything anyone needs with Jesus in my heart! My prayers are answered, every last one of them. I have no worries! And, don't you know...with talks of a recession and worldly co-workers, that attracts attention? I am a living epistle in my office and I share when I should share, I am quiet when I should be quiet, I am comfort when I need to comfort, I am all things to all. And, thankfully, God has enabled me to prosper, not out of my own ambition, not out out of my works by my ideas, but because I cling to His word. As I deal with life as He would have me, I have not been forsaken. We will not beg for bread. Mortgage? The blessing of God will take care of that for me. I do what I can in the natural and God will make up the rest. He is my source of strength, salvation and joy. I will never be let down. Why? Because I KNOW Him. And He loves me.
Where is the strength of the people? Why do they faint? PRESS! KEEP MOVING! Don't give up! I didn't make it this far by rolling over when the devil tries to beat me up! I may stumble, but bless God, I get up, grab my sword and get back in the ring! Don't give up! STAND!!!!!!!!! PRESS!!!! Pressure the devil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep your foot on his neck!!!!! I will NOT dishonor the Blood of Jesus and the price He paid for me by NOT acting on the Word, by rolling over and let the devil steal, kill, and destroy in my house! Jesus did all of that for me! Should I dishonor Him by deeming any situation in which I need to stand too difficult when He has given me authority? God forgive the lazy church who takes salvation for granted. God forgive people who know what to do and don't do it. I'm not talking about the weak. But God forgive those who see the weak and don't bother helping picking them up. AHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Thanks for reading my tirade. I suppose a little Holy Ghost venting is good every now and then. I'm so tired here (Earth). I just want to go HOME. I'm HOMESICK for His Presence! But until them, I will NOT give up.....don't you give up either....
Be strong in the Lord!
