Are You In Or Out? Mar 03 2010
"He who is not with Me is against Me..." - Luke 11:23a
Church pews often fill up whenever there is a great crisis. Earthquakes, devastating hurricanes, terrorist attacks...all prompt many to seek comfort and protection from their Creator. But realize this: You will be grossly disappointed if your motivation for coming back to God is to escape danger. God does not promise that we'll escape danger or even death. Whether it's a terrorist attack or a heart attack, whether it's a plane crash or a car crash, we will all face death.
Instead, come to the Lord with a spirit of repentance that says, "Lord, I realize how much of my life has ignored Your will and focused on my own self-interests. God, I now come to You with a repentant spirit. I want to call on the forgiveness and salvation of Christ. I know it's a dangerous world we live in, but Lord, I want to get things right with You from here on. I want to do things Your way through the salvation of Christ and the teachings of scripture."
Being ready for the hereafter is the best way to live for today. You will never be disappointed if you will take advantage of this opportune time to get right with God. He not only extends forgiveness, but will give you the promise of abundant, eternal life with Him now and forever.
So what's it going to be? Are you with God or not? You're either in or you're out.

Yes, report it NevermindWith all the angst of the current economy and world events it's easy to lose perspective.

Yes, report it NevermindThis devotion makes me feel very thankful that I do feel at peace with God. I can always feel "in" with God because once you are truly "in" you will never be "out" again. I can not imagine going through a crisis (earthquake, hurricane, terrorist attack, etc.) without being right with God. I pray for those who do not know peace with God that they may come to the point of surrender to Him. He only seeks the best for you and prepares a place in heaven for you. He is worthy of your trust. Blessings!
