The title of this article ("It's Not About Why, But About Who!") is from the following 24 minute sermon by Charles Lawson, in which he quotes Psalm 91 and Proverbs 3:5-6, which Scriptures most of you are familiar with. One thing to note, in his sermon below, Pastor Lawson tells us "When you choose God, He will direct and choose your way." And, "Your way is your attitude toward God."
"The Bible recognizes no faith that does not lead to obedience, nor does it recognize any obedience that does not spring from faith. The two are at opposite sides of the same coin." - A.W. Tozer
"The evidence of spiritual growth is when in difficulties you run to the Lord first - in prayer! Get on your knees!" - David Wilkerson
Today's world has its share of "darkness" and troubles. It affects us all in one way or another. In the following 14 minute sermon by Pastor David Wilkerson, he tells us that we may go through many darknesses, but if you are a true Christian, Jesus will rescue you and strengthen you !
At John 3:19-21 Jesus tells us: "And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that they are wrought in God."
In view of the fact that we are now living in the last moments of the last days (according to how Bible Prophecy is now coming true daily) we do well to concern ourselves with living a life in obedience to the good Lord and watching expectantly for Jesus' return! (Titus 2:13)
"For yet a little while, and He that shall come will come, and will not tarry." - Hebrew 10:37
Following is a 4 minute sermon clip by Pastor David Wilkerson on the topic of : It's time to wake up! Please watch! Pastor Wilkerson stresses how we should make time for the good Lord! His return is near! What will Jesus find you doing then?
Concerning Bible prophecies and the fact that nothing should alarm true believers in Jesus Christ the Savior, Charles Spurgeon has this to tell us in one of his "Faith's Checkbook" devotions based on Daniel 12:13 =
"We cannot understand all the prophecies, but yet we regard them with pleasure and not with dismay. There can be nothing in the Father's desire which should justly alarm His child. Though the abomination of desolation be set up, yet the true believer shall not be defiled; rather shall he be purified, and made white, and tried. Though the earth be burned up, no smell of fire shall come upon the chosen. Amid the crash of matter and the wreck of worlds, the Lord Jehovah will preserve His own - Calmly resolute in duty, brave in conflict, patient in suffering; let us go our way, keeping to our road, and neither swerving from it nor loitering in it. The end will come, let us go our way till it does. Rest will be ours. All other things swing to and fro, but our foundation standeth sure. God rests in His love, and therefore we rest in it. Our peace is, and ever shall be, like a river. A lot in the heavenly Canaan is ours, and we shall stand in it, come what may. The God of Daniel will give a worthy portion to all who dare to be decided for truth and holiness as Daniel was. No den of lions shall deprive us of our sure inheritance."
Times are urgent in which we are now living! Urgent especially if you are not saved, are not born again, and have not put your trust and faith and belief in Jesus Christ as the Savior and Him as the only way to the Father and heaven! Jesus paid your sin debt in full on the cross ! He was our substitute as the Lamb of God to take our sins upon Himself and Redeem us by the shedding of His precious blood. Think of how He suffered for you! Think of His great love and compassion for you!
Following are some Salvation Scriptures for those who are not saved to take to heart -- to realize their perilous unsaved condition, and to repent of their sins in all sincerity, and turn to the Lord, recognizing their sinful state and that only Jesus can save us if we but put our faith in Him.... Pray for forgiveness ! Turn to Him with all of your very being in faith NOW !!
Jesus loves you and will welcome you with open arms in an embrace of love and forgiveness!
