These are wonderful days. Great days to be alive, great days to live the high life God provides for them that love Him and have called on His name.

Sure our government (for whom we pray) has rammed through legislation that will hurt people and our country in the long run. Our forefathers must surely be rolling in their graves. Gas prices are up, and the weather is off the charts in every direction. We have crazy religious zealots putting bombs in buses and subways in the name of false religion.

The only thing that I am puzzled about is the fact that some Christians look like they have been sucking on sour lemons, complaining, worrying, bemoaning, and fearful. Hey!!! My fellow Christian did you pray for your nation during these crucial times? I am not talking about throwing up a quickie to the "Big Guy". I am talking about working faithfully with those that you are fitly joined together with as you faithfully attend church, and are faithful to serve, give, intercede (pray for others) for the cause of Christ and your nation. Well then brethren we have what we didn't pray for. It's time to awaken the sleeping Giant (the church) and get busy with our Father's business. This is not the time to cry and complain and reminisce of the way it used to be. If you are serious about seeing the nation turn back to God it's time to humble ourselves and pray and God will heal our land. I am hoping these days of trial will permanently jerk the slack out of some halfhearted uncommitted Christians.

I'm thrilled with the fact Biblical prophecy has already foretold us of these times in very precise detail. The Bible also tells us to rejoice and live in expectant hope with a sober mind when these things happen. God is about to turn up the power. Where sin abounds (and it is) grace (God's provision for his people) much more.

Listen my brethren; get a revelation of Christ in you the hope of glory, not outside of you when everything is well, not under some bush. Get a revelation of being God's rep, an ambassador with your citizenship in Heaven. Get a revelation of the needs of every non-believer, and the love of Jesus Christ that was poured out for them.

Listen, Psalm 23 says The Lord is your Shepard you shall not lack. You've got green pastures, restful waters. He refreshes and restores your life. He leads you on righteous paths. In the shadow valley, fear no evil, because God's word and His leading will always cause you to win. He prepares a table, a full supply in the presence of your enemies. Your cup runs over, and only goodness and mercy shall follow you ALL the days of your life, as the Lords house (going to Church) is your dwelling place.

There you go, that's God's position on your deal. So get with the program. Make a decision not to bow your knee to satan, don't give him the satisfaction of your worrying, don't ever let him see you sweat. You are on the winning side.

I hear Harry Potter books sold millions of copies. Ironically, the last book is called Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Wait and see how this earth will shake at the coming of the full blood King Jesus Christ. Those children will show no interest in some fictitious witchcraft novel in the light of our glorious Jesus Christ.
