The Word Will Go Forth

And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come...

Revelation 14:6-7

These verses penned in John’s revelation today speak to the love, compassion and desire which God has for all His creation to return unto Him… No matter what you have done in this life, no matter how ashamed you may be of the things in your past or the skeletons in your closet; John writes today to let us know that there will be a loud voice  which will be heard of all mankind with the declaration for you to fear God… Your life is built upon the choices that you make and this same principles applies to your relationship with Christ… The Lord desires to save you and to record you name in the book of life; however, it is ultimately up to you and the decisions that you make to decide whether or not you want to dwell there… If you want God to write you name down, if you want Jesus to be “preparing a place for you”, than you must submit and have fear (reverence, respect and admiration) for the Lord… In John’s revelation the last words recorded state “for the hour of his judgment is come…” You don’t have as long as you believe you have and even the next day let alone the next second is not promised… 

The enemy has a lot of us under the belief that we can do as we please because we have tomorrow to change our ways and get ourselves together; sadly, there are millions of people who thought this way and will spend their eternity in hell because of it… Open your eyes to see and know how much the gospel of Jesus Christ has spread throughout the world… There were and still are several areas where the bible is not allowed; however, there are also several countries that have had their eyes opened and the truth penetrates their borders… The word informs us that the gospel will be preached and seeds will be planted in every area of the world before Christ comes; the gospel of Matthew declares it in the 24th chapter, And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. The gospel of Jesus Christ will be preached, it’s just that we must unstop our ears to hear it… John saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven; this angel was being prepped for assignment and sent to the earth with the gospel to preach… This angel spoken of is here today; there are many angels which we encounter and don’t even know it… This is why we must have the mindset of Christ knowing that His word will not come back void but that it will accomplish what it was sat out to do… Hebrews the 13th chapter and 2nd verse says, “Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.” You have already been visited in your life and the word of God has been planted; make sure that it takes root and that you nurture that said to spring forth abundant life in the form of Eternity… Again, John reveals to us today the glory and mercy that embodies our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ… In his vision he sees a (n) angel in the midst of heaven having the gospel and preaching to them on the earth, to every nation, kindred, and tongue… His instructions are to fear God, give Him glory, for the hour of judgment has come… 

This passage should be encouraging to all who partake of it, we need to understand that God doesn’t want to see any perish, He doesn’t want to see you or I left on the side of the road, but He shows us through John what the meaning of unconditional love is. The bible tells me that love keeps no record of wrongs, how many of us can say that we TRULY LOVE someone? Love is sacrifice; it is accepting imperfection and learning to grow together despite the distance that seems to be between you and me… God’s love is on display here, He will blot out all your transgressions, He will hear your faintest cry, He is ready to open the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing! The bible teaches us that Christ will return when His gospel has spread throughout the world, everyone will be given a chance to receive eternal life; everyone will be presented a (n) opportunity to turn from their wickedness and follow Jesus… God’s desire is that all would come to know Him and receive Him… This is His desire, but the ball is in your court… You cannot honor Him with your lips; you must fear Him and give Him glory… Glory is beauty, wonder or credit… When we give God glory we are crediting Him with our change in life, we exalt Him by our living because we recognize that victory, success and prosperity all flow from His blood… Today let us focus on giving God glory with our life, present your body a living sacrifice, understand that this is not easy, but that if we accept the word of God (preached by the angel) and believe it in our hearts, we will be saved and will not suffer the wrath that once awaited us… TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!

ALL FOR HIS GLORY!
