America and the world are in peril.
Violence and Greed has permeated the entire society of
Mankind.
Every day, hour by hour, minute by minute, it gets worse.
And what is so incredible, to me,
is the fact that so many people know the answer
to all the worlds problems,
and have known the answer for centuries,
but people continue to follow a path
that has always gotten worse.
It’s been said that if you always do
what you always did
then you’ll always get
what you always got.
It’s gotten worse
because of the people who don’t know the answer,
people who refuse to believe the answer,
and people who straight-out believe the complete opposite of the answer.
This is not a bible study or lesson.
If you haven’t studied the bible by now,
don’t even worry about it.
Because that same bible you won’t read or haven’t read yet
says in Revelation 22:10-12,
10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. 11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. 12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Right there in verse 10 it says,
for the time is at hand.
I don’t know when that time will be,
I just know that it will be.
The bible says the time is at hand,
that means it’s right here right now.
I mean, where are your hands?
Right there.
See, the only time you have is right now.
See, you can’t do anything yesterday,
because yesterday is gone.
Whatever you did yesterday you can’t go back and undo it.
You ever try to uneat a chicken sandwich?
You can’t do it.
The only time you have is right now.
You can plan on doing all sorts of things tomorrow,
but tomorrow ain’t promised.
Tomorrow is one of those things that we hope for.
Because it’s something that only God can give us.
The bible says that there is a time and a season for everything.
Right now is our time to worship God.
We all want the same things in life
we just go about getting them the wrong way.
There are billions and billions of people on Earth
and we all want to live…for a very long time.
We know that one day we will die
but we want to die of old age and nothing else.
We all need to eat
and God has provided all the food
we’ll ever need in ever replenishing abundance,
yet millions and perhaps billions are starving.
We’ve taken trees and metals that God created
and gave to us to use to better the lives of all human beings
and made them into money.
Then we look to that money
for all the things that God has already given us.
We spend the better parts of our day trying to get more money.
We work five and sometimes six days a week
to get the money we think we need
to get the things that God said He would provide for us.
And God provided it for us before He created us.
What do you think would happen
if all the employed people in the world
would spend eight hours a day praying,
praising, and glorifying God?
See, the bible says in Matthew 6:33
that we should seek first the kingdom of God
and His righteousness
and ALL things would be added unto us.
Money IS NOT THE ANSWER.
Try this experiment at home.
On your next day off,
or any day if you don’t work,
take all the money you can gather up
and put it on the table.
Then sit down and watch TV.
Oops, the remote is on the table with the money.
Not a problem,
just ask the money to bring it to you.
Or tell the money to use its power
to make the remote come to you.
Neither will work
because MONEY HAS NO POWER.
Money has never done anything.
Mankind has done all kinds of things for money,
but money has never done anything.
Satan, with the help of mankind,
has convinced mankind
that money is the most valuable thing ever.
With enough of it you can have anything.
The word of God says
that the love of money is the root of ALL evil.
No, not some,
but ALL evil.
It also says that you cannot serve God and mammon.
Which do you serve?
