PREPARING FOR THE COMING STORM

If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. (Genesis 4:7)


Most of us, who spend time in the Lord and in his word, think we have things well covered. We think because we went to the bookstore and bought the fanciest Bible they have we are well protected. We think because we have joined a church, we have just put shields up around our house. We think because we have joined a prayer group at work, or place of worship, that we are in a place that the wicked one, (Satan), cannot touch us! I proclaim to you today, all these things, although nice, do not protect you from being hit by Satan, not for one minute.

Now we know, those who have not given their lives over to Jesus Christ have NO HOPE! They are puppets at the beck and call of Satan, being used whenever he wants too. But, to the Christian, there is one, and only one way to "Cut the puppet strings" of Satan in your life, for all the above "Rituals" will not protect you. And before I give the key to you, I must also warn you, and I will get right to the point here, I speak to all Christians now:

THERE IS COMING A TIME, AND IT WILL BEGIN VERY SOON, THAT DEMONS AND DEVILS WILL BE SET LOOSE AND GIVEN FREE REIGN, FOR A SEASON. FEAR AND DEPRESSION AND ALL CAUGHT IN "SECRET" SINS WILL BE SWEPT UP IN THIS MOVE. YOU WILL NOT STAND IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED!

Yes, you are reading me right, for I give you a warning! Those who are rebellious, unwilling to repent, not wanting to accept Christ as Saviour, and professing Christians who refuse to prepare for the coming persecution will be swept away, God is not a "respecter of persons". You will not stand, no matter how many sermons you preached, sunday schools you've taught, or people you've led to the Lord in the distant past, those credits do not make God "ooze" with protection automatically for you! Have you gotten rid of the ties the world has in you? Are you holding on to "secret" sins against God? Here is the danger with secret sins, it makes you think God is winking at you, allowing you to continue in that sin because it (The Sin) makes you think God understands your "special" condition to hold on to it. But God is saying to his church, right now -- REPENT, REPENT - for I come quickly, and remove my presence from you, unless you REPENT!

Oh Christian, I told you I would give you the key to cutting Satan's puppet strings, and here it is:

SPENDING TIME IN THE PRESENCE OF JESUS, IN PRAYER, UNTIL HE COMES IN THE ROOM AND CHANGES YOU!

My friend, without Holy Ghost movement in your prayers it is nothing that will help you in the coming storm. You can have the glory that filled the temple in your house! You can have the presence that spoke to Jesus on the mount of Transfiguation in your life! Jesus paid the price so that we could not only have this presence, but walk in this power every day. The key is not how much you did for God in the past, it is this;

DID YOU SPEND TIME IN HIS PRESENCE YESTERDAY? ARE YOU SPENDING TIME IN HIS PRESENCE TODAY?

My friend, spending time in the Holy Ghost, for he is real, allowing him to change you and cut the "puppet strings" of pet sins and worldy influence, and the adam nature in you of self will, is the only way you will stand, and not be swept away.
