Who Shall Stand?

Rev. 6:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

This verse really convicted me this morning. Not because I fear God's wrath. I am saved, therefore, I am not appointed to suffer God's righteous anger. When God looks at me, He sees His Son, Jesus, and He is pleased with His only Son. I was convicted  because so many are lost, so many do not know that one day, God is going to judge them. Only the blood of Christ on their lives can protect them from God's wrath.

Tomorrow, our church has a visitation/flyer distribution day. I'll be honest, almost everyone you talk to here claims to be saved. Those who aren't saved, will let you share the Gospel, and they might even pray the sinner's prayer. But then, when the Mormons or Jehovah's Witness share their version of salvation (which are lies from the Devil!), they accept that, too! We've witnessed a lot in the 3 years of our ministry here, but very few have gotten saved.

I'm praying that the Holy Spirit is preparing someone right now to listen to the Gospel. I'm praying He will open their eyes, their ears and the hearts to listening to the truth. We can only tell them, we cannot convince folks that what we are telling them is the truth. The Holy Spirit does that part, and oh how we need Him to work!

I want everyone to be spared the wrath of God.

  1. Just keep going! We rarely even get to present the Gospel here . . . we rarely get past giving a tract, and many times that is rejected. But we have had several bus kids saved this year, and one bus mom who is so worth all the rejection and work! Just keep going!
