Turn Back to God and Live Again!

     I was just having a discussion with some friends and I started reading a passage in the Bible and the Lord showed me something.  The scripture is Hebrews 3:12-13, which says, "See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called 'Today,' so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness."

     As a country we have continually turned away from God more and more and the decades and centuries pass on.  This country was supposedly founded on a belief in God's principles but today it has been turned over to a reprobate mind. Romans 1: 28 (message bible) says, "Since they didn't bother to acknowledge God, God quit bothering them and let them run loose. And then all hell broke loose: rampant evil, grabbing and grasping, vicious backstabbing. They made life hell on earth with their envy, wanton killing, bickering, and cheating. Look at them: mean-spirited, venomous, fork-tongued God-bashers. Bullies, swaggerers, insufferable windbags! They keep inventing new ways of wrecking lives. They ditch their parents when they get in the way. Stupid, slimy, cruel, cold-blooded. And it's not as if they don't know better. They know perfectly well they're spitting in God's face. And they don't care—worse, they hand out prizes to those who do the worst things best!"

     The thing is God won't "force" Himself on us.  We have been given to ability to freely "choose" to love, follow, believe, and serve God.  If we don't choose Him, He WILL NOT choose Himself for us! 

     Choose God now before it's too late. Choose to turn from your wicked ways.  As a society and a nation we need to choose to return to making God a priority. One day soon there won't be time to choose.  One day Jesus will return for His church. And the scriptures say that "... the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night" (1 Thessalonians 5:1-3).


God bless you!
