This is a topic that comes to mind from time to time. There are people who are married and unhappy and they want to be single again. There are singles who deeply desire to be married. Whether we are married or single there is an anointing from God for the seasons that we are in. When we put down the desire to be married in the natural, we will begin to live under the power and grace of God. Single people have an incredible opportunity to serve God and care for the things He cares about. Married couples are also admonished to have the same passion and care for the things of God that singles have. God gives an incredible grace and anointing to both married couples and singles. The anwer is, both are acceptable by God.

In the last days, who will be saved? Will only a limited handful who hold to a specific doctrine? Or, is it possible, we’ll be surprised by the vast saving power of Christ?

If God can have all of you to Himself then God can use you to be spent for His kingdom. God bought us with His own blood and He stamped His image on us so we can show others who He is. He is calling us to yield all of our talents and gifts for His glory. The great struggle is with the heart that is not willing to surrender to His purposes and plans. If you are in a struggle God will wait until you come to the end of yourself and then be there to pick you up and empower you to do His will.

This message is about the mercy of God. The voice of God is crying out to all His people who are in a spiritual slumber because of self seeking, soft religion. God in His mercy will prepare a trial that will lead us into a type of the sufferings of Christ. This crisis will cause us to be awakened to prayer, and in this time God will throw overboard everything that hinders us from His power. The moment we surrender and yield our life to God's purposes, His mercy will begin to flow in us and through us. The Holy Spirit will give us the courage to stand in the midst of adversity, and speak life into others around us who are perishing.

When we intermingle with the ways of the world, we lose sight of God's ways. We are not called to have the earth bless us; we are called to bless the earth. Our cry has to be "Jesus, touch us and cause us to see what you see and feel what you feel! Lord, cause us to have something deeper than sporadic bursts of kindness." Our eyes should be opened to the compassion of Christ and our hands should be committed to make a difference in society. When we move out in this direction, there is a divine power imputed to us for the work of the Lord.

Whenever a nation, church or person becomes aware of God's truth and refuses to yield to it, a deep darkness will overtake them. Idleness, abundance of bread, and pride is the sin of Sodom. It is the result of a people who don't represent Jesus Christ and His ministry to the fatherless, widow, the poor, and the needy. There is a diabolical message being preached that takes from the poor and leaves them in ruin. God says shall not the land tremble because of this? God judges and lays an indictment at the door of those who have the power to make a difference in this generation and fails to do so. The church of America must wake up and rise out of a self seeking pursuit of God and begin to understand again what the true ministry of Jesus Christ really is.
 

Before Jesus ever performed a miracle and before he started a ministry, He was led into the wilderness. There, Jesus delivered the devil a death blow and we have the ultimate privilege of entering into the victory with Him. When we are in our wilderness temptations, Jesus will remind us how He faced the devil alone so that we will never be alone in our hour of temptation. It's important to understand that Jesus triumphed gloriously over the devil before He set out to redeem us.
