"It is Beginning to Rain" -Throughout our lives, we have heard that Jesus is coming back to earth and we need to be ready for that day. It seems like, the more we hear this warning, the easier it is to tune it out to where we no longer hear it. Just because people may have turned a deaf ear to God's warnings, it doesn't nullify the truth that Jesus' return is drawing near. The reason that the Lord warns us of things before they happen isn't so we can "live it up" until time runs out on us. God warns us so that we can fully utilize the remaining time we have on earth to be prepared when it happens. Are you preparing or are you procrastinating?

"Could a Promotion be in Your Future?" -The Bible declares, "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he." It's highly possible to be a Christian and to love the Lord but live beneath God's best for you. For this reason, it is essential that we daily seek the Lord that He might bring His Word alive to us. When the Word of God becomes alive to us spiritually, we will be empowered to mature in our faith in Christ. Consequently, we will be able to walk in a greater dimension of God's favor, power, and blessings. Every Christian that is serious about their faith and identity in Christ needs this word from the Lord.

"The Righteous Shall be Remembered" -As the return of Jesus draws near, know that great persecution will come against the Church. It will be in times of distress and sorrow that we will need know that God loves us and He will not forget or forsake us. The Lord isn't focused on giving us comfortable lives in the world, but He is very intent on saving our souls from wickedness and eternal destruction. Therefore, we must focus our attention on the life to come and be willing to suffer for Christ's sake in this life. For those who choose to suffer to obey the Lord, He has promised to reward us. Consider the cost of following Christ. Also, consider the cost if you should decide to walk away from your faith in Jesus should you have to suffer greatly for Him.

"Living Under Divine Protection" -Christians: There are somethings that we won't get until we get them. What? There are promises in God's Word that are ours in Christ, but if we do not obey the requirements of the promises, we won't receive the benefits of them. In this word, the Lord will reveal truths from His Word that will make known to us as His children that there are benefits that only the obedient will be able to inherit into our lives. The day of being half way in and half way out in our faith walk is ending.

"Recognizing the Faith of the Faithful" -God is doing a new thing in our generation, but who will have eyes to see and ears to hear what God is doing? Whenever something new comes into being, it generally means that something that has been around for a long time will be no longer. When God does a new thing in the earth, there will be those who will be empowered to make the transition from the old to the new. Only those who have been faithful in the old and who endure in the transition to the new will be able to thrive in the new thing. In this message, the Lord is offering true hope to those who are weary in Christ.

"There is a Way that Seems Right" -When a person comes to faith in Jesus for salvation, they won't understand everything about God or His Word. God gives humans faith so that we can trust in Him even though we not might know or understand Him after coming to faith in His Son, Jesus. Even so, if we will continue to place our faith in the Lord, He will begin to give us spiritual understanding of Him, His ways, and His truth. Until God gives us understanding of Him and His truth, we must obey Him as He instructs us. As we mature in our faith walk, God's Spirit will begin to give us spiritual understanding and to guide us into all truth. Until God gives us spiritual understanding, He expects us to trust Him because He is God.

"Swayed by the Supernatural" -Even though God operates in the supernatural realm, He warns us not to get caught up and distracted when supernatural events take place. Satan and those who serve him will also be able to perform miracles, signs, and wonders. As the day of Jesus' return draws near, Christians must be careful not to fall prey to Satan's deceptive and subtle devices, lest we become deceived and drawn away from the Truth of God. There is a way to make certain, as a follower of Christ, that you will fall for the supernatural acts of Satan or his false prophets. Discover more in this relevant word from the Lord.

"Submission is not Settling" -Satan is allowed by people who do not know God or His goodness to keep them from tasting and seeing that the Lord is good. He tells them that they will have to give up everything to be a Christian. It's a miracle of God that any of us are saved, given all of the lies that Satan uses against us, when we do not know the truth before salvation. Salvation isn't about settling for less, but it's about humbling ourselves and submitting our hearts to the Lord that He might give us spiritual life and blessings.

"The Truth Cuts and Heals" -In the day that we're living, Truth does not have many friends. It seems strange to comprehend why Truth doesn't have many friends because Truth provides protection and safety. The reason why Truth is not proclaimed and accepted as it has been in times past is because it cuts. The same sun that melts butter also hardens the clay. The same Truth that heals the broken heart will also break the heart that is hardened. There is much to learn from this Word from the Lord for you!

"Remain Faithful to the End" -It is human nature to grow weary when it seems like everything and everyone is against us. It is also human nature to want to quit when faced with discouragement and overwhelmed with troubles. However, as children of God, the Lord does not want us to simply quit whenever our faith is being tried. The purpose of faith in God is to have belief in the Lord that He is with us and that He will fight for us when we're attacked by the adversary. Therefore, we should not think it strange when we face suffering and troubles, but we should keep our eyes on the Lord. Christians must learn that to overcome this world and its troubles, we should have more than passive faith, we have to exercise persistent faith that endures to the end.
