In light of everything we have experienced over the last two and a half days as a nation, we see the heart condition of the church. I’m taking a quick detour from specifically focusing on worship & music ministry to address the church at large. I just wanted to communicate what i’m seeing and offer scripture as the prescribed desired response from Jesus Christ. My approach is in love because God is love and the Word was God! (More worship-specific blogs coming soon.)
IM SEEING THOSE, WHO PROFESS CHRIST AS THEIR SAVIOR, TAKING A STAND, TWEETING, POSTING TO PRAY FOR THE DALLAS VICTIMS/FAMILIES ONLY, WHILE IGNORING THE OTHER VICTIMS AND THEIR FAMILIES IN OTHER STATES TO WHOM THEY’VE MADE NO REFERENCE TO! GOD IS NOT PLEASED WITH THIS TYPE OF HEART CONDITION CONCERNING THESE MURDEROUS EVENTS! WOE TO THOSE WITH THIS HEART CONDITION.
UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS NOT JUDGEMENT, THIS IS IRON SHARPENING IRON (ONE CHRISTIAN TO ANOTHER IN LOVE) …SO READ/HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD CONCERNING THIS (many others scriptures could be used, but I chose something short and to the point):
Psalm 145:9b
“God has compassion on all He has made”
“He showers compassion on all His creation”
“His mercy is over all that He has made”
“His mercies extend to everything He does”
THIS IS VERY DISAPPOINTING TO SEE FROM PEOPLE CALL THEMSELVES CHRISTIAN BECAUSE COMPASSION FOR ALL DOESN’T EXIST IN THEIR HEARTS. HOWEVER I PRAY FOR WHOEVER HAS THIS HEART CONDITION WITH NO HATE IN MY HEART FOR THEM! I LOVE YOU ALL! I FEEL PITY BECAUSE MOST CAN ONLY ACT AND FEEL THE WAY THEY’VE BEEN RAISED AND TAUGHT TO FEEL!
KNOW THAT THE LORD CARES FOR EVERY FAMILY OF EVERY VICTIM IN ALL OF THESE TRAGIC MURDEROUS EVENTS! THE RISING BODY COUNT CONSISTS OF ALL OF HIS CREATION… LET US PRAY FOR OUR NATION AND FOR GOD TO RID OUR COLLECTIVE HEARTS OF THIS HORRIBLE CONDITION.
