SOME THINGS ARE WORTH REPEATING..

I have been pondering on what else is new or what else can be said to make another post. To be honest, nothing new comes to the fore except, to perhaps reiterate some things that have already been said.

Often we assume God is wanting to reveal new things so that we do not stagnate in our growth in the Lord. This may be true, sometimes. But God is a wise Master builder and perfect Father, He will not make us fat in spirit by feeding us day in and day out with revelation upon revelation so that we become weighed down in the things of the spirit.

Jesus' instruction to John to write to the assembly at Ephesus, has profound words for us to adhere to.
..... "But I have this [one charge to make] against you: that you have left (abandoned) the love that you had at first [you have deserted Me, your first love].Remember then from what heights you have fallen. Repent (change the inner man to meet God’s will) and do the works you did previously [when first you knew the Lord], or else I will visit you and remove your lamp stand from its place, unless you change your mind and repent".  Revelation 2:4-5.

The love we had at the first, the things we have already heard, are we walking and living in and by them? Jesus means for us to be doing these things. Are we pre paring and readying ourselves for Jesus' return; are we casting off the works of darkness and walking in the light? Once again, hear these wise and true words, "We are not yet ready for the second coming of the Lord because we have not yet fully appropriated the meaning of His first coming". God is requiring something from us, His church ...... and that is, obedience to His instructions in ALL respects. It is of no benefit at all to pretend we do not know or understand and that God does not mind. We will continue to walk around the mountain and roam around in the desert UNTIL we are walking and living in the truth we have heard, in other words, UNTIL we are walking in obedience to the Head of the church.

IT IS TIME FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD TO AWAKEN OUT OF OUR SLEEP AND STUPOR, REPENT, SO THAT TIMES OF REFRESHING MAY COME FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD. If you have ears to hear, then listen and hear.... Grace be with you all.

DREAM OF THE LORD'S RETURN..

The Lord gave me a dream in the mid 1980 s .

This is the dream.

I was visiting a friend and brother in the Lord. We were in his lounge which had long draping black curtains that blocked out any light from outside. We happened to be watching an animated film of the return of Christ, when I heard a shout. I went to the curtains and pulled them apart and looking outside I saw that Jesus was actually in the process of returning in reality. There was a very loud shout and I saw writing across the sky which read...... AND MEN'S HEARTS WERE UNPREPARED..... end of dream.

This dream has stayed with me ever since as if it were the first time; I see it clearly in my mind each time. When the Lord Jesus returns again, it will be that, THE MOST WILL BE UNPREPARED. This does not mean that you and I should be found in that state of being unprepared. We are not of those who have fallen asleep and are scoffing at His return. BE IN A STATE OF READINESS ALWAYS, WATCH AND BE ALERT..... not only for His return, but also for the events that will lead up to His return The grace of the Lord be with you all..
