Tag Archives: God is trying to get your attention

ATTENTION PLEASE

What does someone have to do to get your attention? Whistle, shout, scream, or drop a bomb next to you, before you realize that they are trying to get your attention. Some people just don’t want to be bothered or they have an attention deficit that applies only in certain instances. However, some people’s vision, ears and hearts are impaired because of their education, fame, job, or their physical appearance that they totally ignore the call that will save their life and completely liberate them. God has been trying to get our attention from before we were born through our parents, and grandparents, and they ignored Him and it now has a trickled down on many folks today, where God is secondary instead of first place, and He is trying to get your attention to change the order of significance.

To get our attention, He has done countless things like flooding the earth and only sparing Noah and his family, plus a pair of every creature He created ( Genesis 6), He has destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19); rescued the children of Israel from the Egyptians ( Exodus 12); took them through the Red Sea on dry land (Exodus 14); shattered the walls of Jericho (Joshua 6), and countless amounts of other ways. But He went above and beyond all those things just to prove His love for us by  sending His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to die for us, so that we can have a relationship with Him, and have everlasting life (John 3:16-17). There are so many things that God does just to get our attention and have us recognize His power, might, love, mercy and yet we take Him for granted and ignore His warnings.

Jesus, following in His Fathers (God’s) footsteps,tries to get our attention by healing the sick, raising the dead, making the lame walk, and the blind see; He turned water into wine, used two fish and five loaves to feed a multitude, casted out demons, was tempted by the devil and did not sin, He suffered, bled, died and rose again on the third day, and still, it did not get many people’s attention. What else must God do to get your attention?  God does all that and more to tell you that you are going down the wrong path, and He wants you to turn your life around before it’s too late. In Acts 9, Saul  was going around killing Christians and did not pay attention until God knocked him off his donkey on his butt, while en route for Damascus. 

Does God have to knock you down to get your attention, like he did to Saul who became known as Paul and one of Jesus’ best apostle. Paul and many others realized that Jesus is God’s only begotten Son, and the only way to God is through Jesus, as John 14:6 tells us (He is the way, the truth and the life, and no one goes to God, our Heavenly Father  unless they go through Him). No one else can make that claim, “For there is one God, and one Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” – 1 Timothy 2:5 Now that I have your attention let’s turn our focus to God, and His word which states that, “If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” – Romans 10:9

Don’t go to the grave without giving God your attention because it will be detrimental to you, and then it will be too late to make amends. There are only two alternatives, which is heaven and hell; In heaven you will live forever, but in hell you will burn forever. Why would anyone wish to burn and feel themselves burning does not make much sense, when all you have to do is pay attention to what He says in the Bible, study it, obey it, then do as Acts 16:31 says, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.” If God has gotten your attention then go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions.

All glory, honor, praise and thanks go to God for using me to deliver this message. I pray that He will give all who read this message the spiritual gifts necessary to comprehend and act upon His word. I exercise my power and authority in the name of Jesus to bind every tactic of the enemy, that will try to stop, hinder, or prevent this word from reaching its intended people. I ask the Lord to loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly angels to secure this word so that it reaches its intended people, according to Matthew 16:19 and Luke 10:19 in the omnipotent name of Jesus, Amen.

ONLY A WARNING

“This is only a test of the emergency broadcasting system,” is what they say after a deafening and eerie sound was made. Which makes me wonder how many people are prepared for an emergency and how many would panic? Disasters of any kind hits hard and fast, and it does not take into effect your education, or any kind of skills you have. Most people hit the panic button at the smell of danger. This makes me wonder how people will react when Jesus comes.

Just like disasters that come quickly and the thief that comes in the night, that is how Jesus will come,”For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night; For when they say, ‘peace and safety!’ then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman”(1 Thessalonians 5:2-3). But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up (2 Peter 3:10). Are you ready? Will you be ready ?

People like to say God is loving and kind; He knows my heart. Yes, He is all that and more; however if you keep disobeying Him and keep living in sin, sooner or later He will not be merciful, and you will experience His wrath. In Revelation 3:15-16 it says, God knows all your deeds, that you are neither hot or cold, but He wishes that you would make a decision. Just make up your mind, you can’t be both. It’s one or the other, you can’t be half and half. So if you are lukewarm, He (God) will have to spit you out of his mouth.

God has put His power on display for us daily. We hear the thunder, see the lightning, see the sun, the moon, and the stars. We are struck with sickness and diseases, drought, famine, there are so many signs and wonders yet people still refuse to serve and trust Him. Just like He warns the children of Israel in Amos 4:4 which lets us know, that if we keep on disobeying Him, then your sins will pile up. Are you going to wait till your sins overflow, that you kindle His wrath, and He has no choice but to take you out, because the stench of your sin has gotten up to His nostrils? Or would you prefer to join satan, and burn in hell?

Many years ago we see where He destroyed and allowed many places to be destroyed because of sin. We can start with Sodom and Gomorrah, the world trade center, the flood in New Orleans and the surrounding states by hurricane Katrina, the tsunami in Japan and other places; But still you will not return to God. If you don’t start repenting from all  your sins, more disasters will follow, and we better be prepared to meet our maker (God) as He comes in judgment (Amos 4:11-12). Most of us don’t deserve all the chances we get, but let me remind you that it is appointed unto men once to die and after that Judgement. Read it for yourself in Hebrews 9:27.

We all have to face God one day, the question is: Are you ready? Are you truly prepared? Well you better get ready, and you better do it fast. Just go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, then follow the instructions. Why gamble with your future? Why not make the choice while you can? Tomorrow is promised to no one. For spiritual training and growth read the Bible.

Now unto Him who is able to keep us from falling, and to present us faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God, Our Savior, be glory, praise, honor, and thanks for using me to deliver this message to His people. May He give everyone spiritual wisdom, knowledge, and understanding to receive this message with clarity. To God be the majesty, dominion, and power both now and forever, Amen.
