Everywhere I reached out to lend a helping hand I was met with resistance. Desiring to help, yet over and over, again and again, in the market place, on the street, among family, friends I continued to hear: "it' not time, not now." "Wait!" The dream ended; I sought God.
"This is the way of the world...the way of the church. Wait, enjoy what you have built. Not now, relax, no rush. It isn't time scoffers and mockers were heard to exclaim.
But I, say Now is the time, now is the hour. Be about the Father' business. The hour is late, days are numbered, souls die daily. Darkness continues to slowly creep into My church. The Word of Truth has grown dim, replaced by the bright light of ecumenicalism. A social gospel rules supreme; where once My Word was embraced now syrupy sermons with touchy-feely text fill auditorium and chapel alike.
As the church morphs more and more into the ways of the world, My remnant will rise up and revival will come. Like a tiny candle in a vast darkness it will shine, it's glimmer will illuminate its surroundings. Some will embrace the tiny light, others will ignore its light choosing instead to live in its shadow. Are you children of the day or children of the night?"
"He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior.." Titus 3:5-6
"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." Matthew 5:16
