Exploding Hope, Truth and Love From Inside Out.

I am the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, says the Lord, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.
Do not be afraid, I am the First and the Last, He who lives, and was dead, and behold I am alive forever more.
I know your works, tribulations, and poverty ( but you are rich ). See I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it, for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied my name.
Behold, I stand at your door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.
He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.
Tonight i want to honestly burst this from my heart, as an explosion so powerful that can not only shake your very soul but to say and show how much you matter, how much you are loved, and how right now in this day and moment we all can hear Him saying, "I'll come as a thief, blessed is he who watches, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work." Are you watching? Are you ready to be judged for your works? Are any of us taking this serious enough to save our loved ones along with us or are we ready just to save ourselves and leave the ones we love behind because our pride or other selfish motive got in the way from saving them? Are YOU ready?
We are humans and as such we all make mistakes, we get discourage, we fail society and loved ones, but what makes us powerful in Christ is that we can ask for forgiveness, we can forgive those who hurts us, we can chose the door we walk in, God said He would open doors that no one could ever shut, but we still must walk in, with faith and courage, not doubtful, not lukewarm, but hot in His name full force ahead regardless of what may look like the way to that door or what we may see through the little crack of that open door.
Friends, we must act on our faith, on our believes wile we still can, it is our God given gifts and rights that should be put to work in this realm, this powerful gifts were given so that we can continually give to others, to reach the so called impossible, as impossible truly is only what we refuse or can't accomplish, but someone else can. So if we work together as one with one vision, one faith and believe we can achieve what was always thought to be the absolute impossible, we must remember and accept as truth that with God all things are possible, lets live and follow His words like we actually believe in Him completely, not partially.
Do not be afraid as He has promised never to leave nor forsake you, He sees all our works, tribulations, and even when we loose it all in this world we have everything, we are rich in Him, He is our guiding light, He is hope for the poor and the persecuted, He is the Strength in the weak, and He will reward us accordingly to our works, imagine facing God and telling Him why you waited too long to reach out to a friend in need, why a nicer car, home, diamond, or any grand gift in this world was more valuable than the life of a starving kid, a pregnant mom, an elderly man ?
My heart tonight cries out to yours, to all fathers who as head of house holds should to all in your powers to save your wives and kids, to the mothers who should with their love try a little harder to convince their husbands that God and family is number one priority, as I always said before God is a must not an option. And to all your single parents out there, find in your hearts to forgive and forget, extend your hand to the other, at one point of your life he or she was your everything, they can't just be your nothing now, love never fails, it doesn't die, it just get cover up by our own justifications for the other persons wrong doings and some times our own.
I have asked this question lately a lot, but I ask you all again, WHAT IF TODAY WAS YOUR LAST DAY?
God said that He is love, and freely He gave Himself to us, He gave us His love, and in that same matter we should give, freely with out ever thinking or analyzing why are we giving or what are we to get back from it, just LOVE.
God bless and have a great week!
