THE SINGULAR ROAD


THE SINGULAR ROAD

                From time to time, for the sake of understanding where we are in prophetic time, I must resort to dealing with political, religious, or technical issues that will contribute to prophesied last day events. Most of the time, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth…especially where it concerns Politics. That subject seems to bring the demons out of the woodwork.

                In truth we Christians travel a singular road. Having died to the world, the flesh and the devil through the cross of Jesus Christ, we follow in His footsteps. We seek to gain His world view. We long to share in His compassion for the lost and the suffering. We hunger to reflect His image.

                The more I press into the heart of My Lord, the less likely I am to argue about temporal things. Jesus said it best when He said: ”Follow Me and let the dead bury the dead.” Mt. 8:22

                We worship a King who is not of this world. As such we seek to be humble servants of the Most High God even as we are learning to reign as His sons and daughters. We are looking for a city whose Builder and Maker is God… and while we care about the things that go on around us and the issues we face in our day, we should never allow them to pull us from our secret place in the Most High.

                God never intended for us to live for one minute in this world without Him. We were designed from the start to be carriers of His presence. Adam Lost it and Jesus restored it. What issue could possibly be more important than that one?

                Jesus said, “Abide in Me and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine; so neither can you unless you abide in me.” John 15:4

                Whatever else may seem important in this life, abiding in Him and He in us must certainly be at the top of the list. If we have no other goal in this life than to truly abide in Him and to bear the fruit of His Spirit we will have done well; for in this one pursuit all things pertaining to life and godliness exist.

                Especially as the issues of these last days press harder against us, we need to learn to walk that singular road.

CREATED TO BE KINGS AND PRIESTS

CREATED TO BE KINGS AND PRIESTS                 You will have to forgive me if I sound like I am repeating myself here, but I am going to go over a well- worn subject because the Lord has just taught me something that has put the whole thing together.                 I have mentioned numerous times over the years the triune nature of man. Mankind was created as a threefold being, body, soul and spirit. The tabernacle of Moses makes that very clear with its three sections. The outer court represents our physical body. The Holy Place represents our soul. (Our soul is made up of our natural mind, will and emotions.) And the third compartment, the Holy of Holies is our spirit and we can see from this that when the Holy Spirit comes to dwell in us He doesn’t live in our body or our mind, but He dwells in our spirit. ...

GOD'S FIRE AND THE REMNANT FACTOR

GOD’S FIRE AND THE REMNANT FACTOR             God’s fire came down upon Mt. Sinai as if to consume the whole mountain and the people quaked and feared and made promises to God that whatever He said, they would do. But when all was said and done there were only two of the people that were there that day that lived to cross over into the Promised Land.             God’s fire fell in Elijah’s day and consumed the sacrifice and the people all said, “The Lord He is God.” But Elijah fled anyway, in spite of that mountain top experience. Ahab and Jezebel were still alive and in control and Elijah felt very much alone. This one was going to come back and bite him, he was quite sure.                         Elijah complained to God that he was the only one l...

HUMILITY

HUMILITY                 I think that sometimes in our Christian pride we approach God more like the Pharisee than like the Publican. I remember way back in the early years of the name it, claim it movement a man named Charles Capps wrote t book called “The King’s Kids.” In essence it taught that as King’s kids we deserve the best of everything. If we believe God for a Cadillac, we can have our Cadillac and so on.                 Well, I think those early attitudes have become more sophisticated these days, but the same sort of pride and arrogance still prevails. Where is the humility that once caused the Publican to say, “God be merciful to me a sinner?                 Perhaps if we started our prayers like that, then we would get off on a right footin...
