Working out our salvation as this scripture says, what does that mean to you? Is it just saying with your mouth that you believe in Jesus Christ? Then you make the next step of being baptized, going to church, reading your Bible. It's so much more than that. There's no fear of the Lord anymore, like this scripture says. People pick and choose like God is some kind of buffet God. Our hearts should break for what breaks His heart. We should desire to look more and more like Him, because with each day as the bible says, we die daily to self.

Philippians 2:12 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling,13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose."....   Jesus tells us in scripture to remain in Him so that we can bear much fruit. Apart from him we can do nothing, John 15:4. The fruit of the spirit are, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self control, Galations 5:22-23.... 

We all need to do a self check. I want to know that I am truly His because the day seems like it is approaching fast.

Luke 12:40 "You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.”

For Your Glory Lord

Ezekial 43:1-12

When the glory of the Lord returns to the church, only then will the nation be blessed.

For God to return to the culture, His conditions have to be met. The house of Israel was defiling God's Holy Name by their prostitution, and the lifeless idols. Verse 8 really gets me. They placed there threshold next to His threshold. Government then, and government now, still intrudes on the rule of God. Romans 13:1-4. The role of the government is to act on God's behalf. But we have allowed politics to dictate to the kingdom of God by keeping our mouths shut too long. Isaiah 5: 20-21 " Woe to those who call evil good in good evil.... Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight."... God has a view on everything and we should see as He sees. Remove God and we will continue to be a nation that goes under. Continuing to decline. Romans 1: 18-32, If we no longer look to God for his perspective on things He will continue to allow decay. Psalm 33:12, A nation is blessed who recognizes His policies. Psalm 22:28, Leave God out and the nations are in trouble. Government should reflect God for the well being of society. If we want to be a blessed nation, we need to have God's perspective on all things, not just what we choose.

He is Holy.

Lord God, we are praying. As Your Word says, to seek Your face and turn from our wicked ways.Then you will hear from heaven, 2 Chronicles 7:14

Here is from heaven Lord. Send us Your presence. We seek Your face, Your ways....

Genesis 11:3-4... explained: Let's come up with our own plan on how the world should work. Back then it was tar and mortar. Using what they had. Their tower was a religious symbol. It would go all the way up to heaven. It wouldn't be that heaven would come down to them. They would go there. How crazy! They had enough religion to have a form of godliness. But not enough to operate its reality. Verse 4 ..we may make a name for ourselves... Why do they want to be known by their own name? Because they don't want to be known by God's name. They want to be known by their own authority and not answer to a Higher Being. Just like people say today... "I know my truth".. Well, if it's not God's truth, it's no truth at all. They didn't want God, they wanted their independence and that is what is happening today. The Word of God should mean more to us than Democrat or Republican. We are a nation under God. So what does the God over the nation want us to do in all things that we are voting for? Verse 5-7.. the Lord came down.. Are we living by what everyone else thinks? What's good for me? Or by what the Word of God says? We bear the consequences of the choices that we make. The cry for independence is not good for a society against God. There is so much confusion today. No one really has an answer for anything. Just a bunch of promises. Read verse 7, and who do you think is confusing everything? The confusion exists because the independence exists. Powerful message. Summarized from Tony Evans message.. Turning a nation to God.

May you receive all the glory Lord. May we be a people who turn one hundred percent to You.
