We said in the Coming Storm presentation that a new season was upon us and we talked about the fact that Jesus told us to be aware of the signs of the times. We said that the changes that were coming were not just financial and economical, but that these signs would be of every kind.
Since then we’ve seen an incredibly devastating earthquake in Haiti. If you think that Haitians have been idolatrous and that God is cleaning this up, you are correct. The next question is, have we been idolatrous and is God going to do some cleaning up? We’ve seen severe rain on the west coast and the most snow our nation has ever seen, but this is just the beginning.
None of this is without purpose. God has not forgotten His plan! He will bring it to pass. It is a glorious plan and the best part is reserved for those who love Him!
After we’ve discussed all these things, we want to leave you with a few questions to ponder and seek the Lord about.
Is it possible that we get to live in the most amazing times in the history of the world up until now?
That God might want to begin to reveal His sons on earth?
If He were to do this, Is it God’s way in redeeming fallen Man back to Him for it to be a simple easy transition?
Would there be giants you might have to face?
Would many fall away? (see the Laodocian Church in the book of Revelation)
Would the old which no longer reflects His glory be done away with so that something new might be birthed?
Would there be pain and suffering for the flesh?
Would these challenges be the exact ones you expect to come or something totally different?
Would it be gloriously worth it to be a part of what God is doing in the world, growing up to know Him and His love in the most personal of ways. Being taught directly by Him and taking your place in His family?
This is Part 11 in the series Kingdom of God. To use this as a growth tool to better understand your own calling, you might start by reading Part 1, Pt 2, Pt 3, Pt 4, Pt 5, Pt 6, Pt 7, Pt 8, Pt 9 and Pt 10.
