"When they set their threshold by My threshold, and their doorpost by My doorpost, with a wall between them and Me, they defiled My holy name by the abominations (sins) which they committed; therefore I have consumed them in My anger." ~ Ezekiel 43:8
When we refuse to obey the God of the Universe, the God of our souls, our created bodies, when we defy His name and all He commands of us, when we separate Him from us and do only that which we personally desire, all that is an abomination to Him, the time will come when His anger will be upon us. We will be consumed. All of our cries will be to no avail.
God has said:
"You shall have no other gods before Me." (Deuteronomy 5:7)
"You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain." (Deuteronomy 5:11)
But we do and we have. We do not, we did not and we continue to not obey.
The time will come. His time.
All, except a few (a remnant), will be no more. A few will remain faithful and true to the Holy One. A few will live in the Kingdom of Heaven with the Almighty Lord Jesus Christ.
Will you be among the faithful and true? Will you accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior?
It is your choice.
Jesus is knocking at the door of your heart. He wants to be part of your life. He knocks only for so long. There will come a time when the knocking will cease and the opportunity is gone.
"Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receive, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened." ~ Matthew 7:7-8
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me." ~ Revelation 3:20
It is still your choice. The choice remains yours as long as the door is open. But no one knows how long that will be. No one knows when the Lord will return, only God the Father knows.
I bid you come. Come and see, and receive. All you who do not know, who wait for a more opportune time. There is no better time than now. He has your best in mind always. In the midst of every hardship, the Lord will be with you, to encourage, to listen, to give us hope and so much more. The struggles do not go away, but the Lord walks with us, He lessens the load.
It's the journey ... not the destination. ... The journey ... my eyes were opened and I knew Him and my heart was changed. ... Won't you join me in my travels, meandering here and there, journeying within my mind and beyond, on paths great and small, through this world that was created by and belongs to the Lord God Almighty.
