Desperate times calls for desperate measures

“Desperate times calls for desperate measures”

Ecclesiastes 12:1-2;

“Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them; ²While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain.”

Serve God now while you are young, the younger you give your heart to Christ the more impact and the more God will be able to use you, because you are young and full of energy and life. Ecclesiastes 11:9-10 “Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment. ¹⁰Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity.”

Please young people young teenagers please put away anything that will stand between you and God, put it away and stand for Jesus. If you are in a relationship that is standing between you and God let it go. The music you listen to brothers and sisters, you know God would not and is not listening to that type of music, if it is standing between you and God let it go, if the T.V. which is loaded with filth, and most of everything on it promotes the flesh it needs to be unplugged or taken out of the house. We are in the last days folks and Satan has his aim targeted at our young people. (Psalm 127:3-5). Why because he knows if a young person fully gives him/herself to God, he or she would be a threat to his kingdom. Youth are arrows in the hand of a mighty man, and when Christ the Almighty one gets a hold of some of you arrows Satan is in trouble. Satan tries his best to make sin look good, tasted good, feel good, but the end thereof is death. (Romans 6:23). He tells men and women but young people especially the same lie he told Eve in the garden. I’m telling you young people from experience, they way these celebrities and superstars portray themselves on the screen, when the camera is off is a whole different scenario. Sisters and brothers the younger you give yourselves to Christ the better.  Cut off the T.V’s  put away the video games and open your bibles, pray everyday without ceasing. Guard well the avenues of your soul. Don’t give the devil any opportunity to trap you. (Ephesians 4:25). Burn, destroy, throw away, dump, break up anything that Satan will and can use to target you and count the cost of it all. Acts 19:19 “Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. ²⁰So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.”Trust in the Lord and know that it was worth it and for your good. We need to clean up our homes.  2 Kings 10:26 “And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burned them. ²⁷ And they brake down the image of Baal, and brake down the house of Baal, and made it a draught house unto this day. ²⁸Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel”. Many of us have curious arts in our homes, you see back in those days they had books and coliseums  but today we have more than those we have the movies and dvds. We have video games T.V.s etc. if we were to be honest with ourselves we would know for a fact that God is not sitting there watching that certain movie with you, but demons are. Hey im just being real here, we are in a warfare we are not battling against flesh and blood but principalities, Satan isn’t called a wily foe for nothing. (Ephesians 6:10-18.) Lets bring our families together and pray like we have never prayed before. Parents whatever you allow your child to do our look at. You are held responsible, and you are sending your child straight on I-85 to hell. In the biblical days Heathens sacrificed their children to their heathen gods. Aren’t we doing the same thing today?

Malachi 4:2

“Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. ⁵Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: ⁶And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.”

God has given us a blueprint to follow in his holy word and like He promises in Joshua chapter 1:6-8. if we follow His word and keep it, not taking away from it or adding to it, then shall we have true success and we shall prosper. This is the Elijah message . 1 Kings 18:21 “And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him”. There is no  in between its ALL or NOTHING!!. Choose ye this day who you will serve you are either serving Christ or Satan. ?

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.  ¹⁴For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.”

We must do some house cleaning Jesus is soon to come and desperate times call for desperate measures. Are you ready for Jesus to come?
