Good Morning Angels and Welcome to a new and improved Year.
I am going to ask you all to do something that may or may not make sense to you but I need this from you. I would like to start a prayer circle for protection and power for Israel. They are at war with Gaza and are presently subject to fire from the Palestinians and Muslim communities. I know that some of you read scripture and pray and to those that don't you are loved by God and He would love to hear from you and teach you. I know that the War in the middle east has gone on for a long time and they have fought over land and religion but Israel is our saving grace in our Father's eyes. If you ever want to know what is going to happen next or your curious as to why I said what I just said, read the book of Revelations. This is the beginning of the apocalypse. Many people fear that word but their really is nothing to fear about it. It means life as you know it will change. Change is not bad it's necessary to mankind in order for survival.
I am not trying to be negative or doom say but I have a duty to you all and that is to open your eyes and hearts to the truth. Usually, people shut down and off when ever the Bible is mentioned or that particular chapter because as human beings we can decide what to believe and what not to. We get caught up in the every day life and boredom brought on with routine- but we seem to forget that life is changing around us which will eventually effect us directly. We live in a protected environment regardless of our economy's standing at this time. It is by God's grace that each and every single one of us are still in existence. Our hearts have to be with His along with our thoughts. He knows that you are not perfect and will consistently make mistakes and fall of the wagon of morals. I by no means am perfect nor do I think that God is always pleased with me, but one thing I do know is that every time I read about Him and how He has blessed and punished my ancestors, I know I have a chance with Him. He always loves and welcomes us home.
I made a decision to start thinking about other's and care about their hearts and lives and how I effect them. I know that He wants me to serve Him happily and with out question. That is hard for me to accept that , that is my purpose hear on earth but it is, just as it is all of our purposes. How ever, it doesn't mean to start going on missionaries to other countries it means bless people in any way you can and by doing that you are serving Him.
Some Agree and some don't with that but I have studied the Bible and listened to many lectures and the messages of the purpose of our lives is always the same. Our purpose is to serve the Lord with gladness and care for others. Now this doesn't mean that every one is a minister, that simply means that in everything you do, find a way to treat others with the same love and forgiveness that your Fathers has given you. You won't do it with the magnitude or unconditional nature as He does but you don't have be exactly like Him you just have to make a conscience effort everyday. By doing that you are serving Him. You can bless people with your career or with your talent. You have the ability to bless lives and when you do that, you are living your purpose. Think of God often and get to know Him.
Well Angels, I hope that this weeks message gave you some insight and clarity. Please remember to pray for Israel with me and pass that along to other strong prayers for me.
Happy New Year Angels!
