II Corinthians 4 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us.



If you will give Me your life I will make something beautiful out of it.

The Reason


Revelation 19 Then I saw heaven opened and behold a white horse! The One sitting on it is called Faithful and True and in righteousness He judges and makes war. His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on His head are many crowns and He has a name written that no one knows but Himself. He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood and the name by which He is called is the Word of God. And the armies of heaven arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following Him on white horses. From His mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations and He will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. On His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Amen!

Let's just be frank. There is a day coming when God will set all things right. What He has done is rightly done. Amen? This is NOT a fairy tale. This is NOT a splendidly written work of fiction (although it is a great read). This is NOT a metaphor. In that day, no longer will we see Christ as only a slaughtered lamb. He is coming again with power and great glory. Can you hear it in the verses?...eyes like a flaming fire...robe dipped in blood...sharp sword from His mouth...ruling with a rod of iron....fury and wrath of God.
Lord God Almighty, drag me from my childish life of complacency and remind me that people will spend an ETERNITY in hell if we don't persuade them for Christ and show them how to find heaven!! God help us!! God forgive us!! God call us!! Send us!! Empower and anoint us!!

Come now let us reason together says the Lord. Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow.

The Spirit and the Bride say "Come" and let the one who hears say "Come" and let the one who is thirsty come, let the one who desires take the water of life without price.

Lord, fill us with a hunger and thirst for YOU. Show us the urgency of the need. Open hearts to hear and fill your people with the courage to say "Come"
