Salvation will Bridge the Gap: Let the Lord break down boundries!
On rare occasions your Petitions subside and we explore other resources. People often chat about engineering, medical and technological Breakthroughs; but what areas still need work? What Triumphs have been made in your particular nation? In our library of books, Thomas Wolfe broke silence this morning. Back in 1967 Turnbull quotes Wolf, “No one so loved this nation, yet no one denounced it more bitterly—injustice, waste, violence and inequality—are realities about life most people hate, only because they LOVE.”[1] Could it be that our LOVE is Misguided, its surplus Unjustified, and focused on Realm and Population instead of God as it was back then?
According to Christ salvation begins with Baptism, not allegiance to state or populace. Almighty God should be the focus every day, through Him all desires can be achieved. Our Lord said pray in the face of injustice and violence, lay down weapons of repute; He taught disparity existed out of envy and greed. Economic gaps exist because a few continue to lord over others, this will change as our focus changes. If we truly want LOVE to captivate our lives appeal to GOD, abstain from HATE, and SHARE resources.
“Let love be your highest goal, but also desire special abilities the Spirit gives, especially they gift of Prophesy. For if your gift is the gift of tongues you will be talking to God, but not to people, since they won’t be able to understand you. You will be speaking by the power of the Spirit, but it will all be mysterious.
But one who prophesies is helping others grow in the Lord, encouraging and comforting them. A person who speaks in tongues is strengthened personally in the Lord, but one who speaks a word of prophecy strengthens the entire Church.” (1 Corinthians 14:1-4 NLT)
We are here to strengthen the Church, yea? Coming Together, entering into Prayer, and Learning our Lord’s Spiritual wonders will Synergize the globe.
Every nation-state will thrive with a proper fulcrum. Christ’s ministry hinged on life after death, and so does ours. Not a physical death, but a Spiritual Re-Birth! That takes place when people turn to God; a rite that mystifies every science known to man.
