Oh Wow GFG! Both of those words above fit in with what God put in my heart this morning in my prayer time:
There’s been a change in the spiritual atmosphere. Can you feel it? People are becoming disheartened and are becoming more callous and colder because they put their faith in a king instead of God; they put their faith in the wrong things. We need to pray for those people and pray for ourselves as well. The change in the spiritual atmosphere, if we let it, it will bring us down too.
Now is the time to shed off the negativity that is going on around us, stand up like the warriors He called us to be and pray. Pray against the dark powers that are causing this and ask God to send his warring angels to defeat them.
The key is people are searching because they are disheartened. They have put their faith in the wrong things, but need something to put their faith in. Now is the time to witness like never before, sow the seeds, and pray for souls that they will be brought into the kingdom of God.
Time is short.
Quoting: NOLAangel It all boils down to TRUSTING God.
Look at how the people continually acted once Moses kicked things off.
No matter WHAT God did for them, they quickly forgot it and then whined about something else.
It's no different these days. Many people tend to forget what God did for them in the past, worrying about the "new" challenge in their life.
I gotta wonder how many of them have been told that, at some point, God is going to remove His Spirit from the face of the earth.
But God's Word states differently. And throughout the Old Testament are stories of God's forgiveness & subsequent Blessings to those who Repent and restate their Belief.
