Jesus Christ, the Son of God is our solution to the darkness problem facing the world right now. Repentance, revival and righteousness are the solutions to the problems facing the world right now (because all three point directly at Jesus Christ the Son of God). The enemy is busy with their demoralization campaign in an attempt to convince us that resistance is futile so just give up and accept the theft, fraud, greed, corruption death and destruction as inevitable. Uh, no thanks....
This world has a darkness problem. The solution to darkness is light. Its that simple. The Spirit of God, is that light that the world needs to put darkness to flight.
PS 36:9
For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light.
What this world needs right now is life and light. Both are found in Christ Jesus. The Lord has counseled us that He is doing something new. This new thing requires us to focus on the solution while keeping momentary eyes on the problems. We have an internet full of people who have identified the zillion and one problems facing us right now but not one of them is offering a solution except "prepping" while they feed us more bad news. Uh, no thanks we can pass on most of that now too.
Now lets get back to some solution tools like Ps 36:9 above. It says "in your light do we see light." Another way of saying that is if we want/need to see some light in our life we need to get into the same vicinity of the Lord God because we need to be in His light. We need to see clearly, again-that happens in His presence.
PS 73
16But when I thought how to understand this,
it seemed to me a wearisome task,
17until I went into the sanctuary of God;
then I discerned their end.
Now is the time to keep our eyes on the solution. The process of turning the lights back on in this land of darkness starts with each and every one of us as individuals. It does not start with the hired hand spiritual servants who have sold us down the river for years. Their time has come to an end. Each and every servant of the Most High God (thats you) should and will be a mountain mover, a dead raiser, a water to wine changer and a whole lot more:
John 14:12
12“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. 13Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If you ask mee anything in my name, I will do it.
We, the "nobodys" of this world are supposed to and will walk in this power. The Lord God has no intention of allowing of the enemy to walk all over His Church with no response. There is a response and that response will grow over time (read the book of Revelation for the responses that settle accounts with the enemy and his servants.).
For our part, we need to do what we have always known we should be doing. Now is the time to do it. We are here for a reason in this season. Each one of us has unique talents skills and abilities given to us to serve the Kingdom in the here and now. We do not have to figure everything out right now, what we do have to do is lean on the Spirit of God from moment to moment to guide our path forward. We need to get right and stay right with the Lord God then get out of the way and let Him do His work through us and this nobody can testify to you today from first hand knowledge that you will see jaw dropping, amazing, powerful work with your own eyes. The Lord God is ready, now we must be ready.
The Lord God has chosen us, these jars of clay to carry around the omnipotent Spirit that works out all things according to His will and pleasure. When you see these things happening with your own eyes because you did the repent, revival, righteousness then got out of the way to allow Him to flow like a river out of you to do His work in whatever areas and circumstances He has placed you in to do that work, then you will understand and you will be amazed.
Its time guys. Play time is over, its time to get to work. The X over America was a real warning and a real sign for the world that the Lord God is watching and working. Stay focused on the solution. Pray, fast, employ the talents you have been given. Spend time loving on the Lord your God. Keep your eyes on Him and He will keep His eyes on you. Give yourself completely to Him and He will give Himself completely to you and you will overflow light like a river into this world. Yes, you can do this. You were born for this. We all have needs, take them to the Lord. The servant who writes to you is the neediest in the Kingdom and yet day by day, somehow in spite of him, the Lord God provides over and over and over again.
We need Him, we are needy and dependent and He knows that. He will meet our needs wherever we are according to His riches and glory.
Phil 4:19
And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.
Thats enough for today. We are dearly loved children. The Spirit of the Lord says "encourage the saints."
1 Thess 5:11
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
Let us glorify the Lord our God together and give Him thanks for His exceedingly great loving kindness and mercy toward us who believe.
Glory to God
grace and peace
