Discouragement

January 24, 2017 By admin

Photo by Dreamstime

Dear God: Be there for every person who is discouraged. For those who feel like giving up and calling it quits. For those who believe nothing turns out right for them. As the surge of wind lifts the tired bird, O Lord, may the flow of Your Holy Spirit lift every tired individual. Speak words of courage and grant strength to those who seem to have no reason to live. Let all know that You love them individually. In fact, so much that You gave Your “only begotten Son so that all may have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) 

Father, be the light (Psalm 27:1) to all who dwell in darkness. Let everyone who is afraid know they can trust You (Psalm 56:3). You promised to deliver us from our fears and save us from our troubles (Psalm 34:4-7). Lord Jesus, I am counting on You to keep Your promise. I know You will and I thank You!

In Jesus’ name. Amen!

Babylon is Fallen

January 17, 2017 By admin

Photo by Pixabay

This cryptic statement is as mysterious as it is prophetic. Who is Babylon, and how did it fall? The word “Babylon” comes from the name of the ancient city, Bab-ilu (Babel). Babel and its famous tower, were built by some of Noah’s descendants who doubted God’s promise to never again destroy the earth by flood. To be safe they set out to build the world’s first skyscraper.

“Come, let us build for ourselves a city, and a tower whose top will reach into heaven, and let us make for ourselves a name, otherwise we will be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth” (Genesis 11:4).

When God saw their lack of faith, and saw that their imaginations were bent only toward evil, He confused their language so they no longer spoke one tongue. Frustrated and thwarted, they scattered across the face of the earth.

Babylon, which means “gate of the gods,” was a city that many believe was established by Nimrod, the son of Cush. In time, Babylon became a symbol of everything that was opposed to God.

In 1997, the rock group, the Rolling Stones, embarked on a world tour dubbed, “Bridges to Babylon.” One writer said this title suggested “the transportation of the audience to a mythical place synonymous with both luxury and vice; the precise conditions that produce an atmosphere of decadence.”

Revelation depicts spiritual Babylon as a fallen city; a symbol of modern spiritual entities who profess a connection with God, but who actually live by their own rules.

“Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who has made all the nations drink of the wine of the passion of her immorality” (Revelation 14:8).

Pop-Religion

Now a billion dollar industry, pop-religion uses savvy marketing to sell its wares (books, videos, seminars, music and more). Mega-churches have learned how to grow their numbers and strengthen their loyal followers. Many churches produce high-powered programs that feature astounding theatrics, state-of-the-art music, and smooth preaching. These are not all bad. Some of the methods and techniques are effective in getting people’s attention. But unfortunately with many churches, their teachings are so generic they fail to connect people with God. It appeals to the masses because it offers a watered-down version of Christianity that requires very little commitment. God’s response to this is:

“Come out of her [fallen Christianity], my people, so that you will not participate in her sins and receive of her plagues; for her sins have piled up as high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities” (Revelation 18:4, 5).

What are the earmarks of fallen religious entities? Here are a few:

1. Loss of vision and passion
2. Superficial faith
3. Using religion as a means for financial gain
4. Endorsing non-biblical practices and beliefs
5. Hypocrisy
6. Using spiritual authority as a means to gain control of others
7. Unwillingness to obey God
8. Setting oneself up in the place of God.

In another sense, the Babylon motif is also descriptive of a failed version of consumerism that promotes the pursuit of ever-expanding consumption as the key to happiness and prosperity. It doesn’t take a rocket-scientist to know that eventually the bubble bursts, things wear out, debts pile up, and environmental issues reach a breaking point. Many of the critical decisions that we face today are related to the insatiable appetite we have developed for a lifestyle that requires huge amounts of resources (particularly energy and water) that are rapidly being depleted.

Ultimately, all of our problems stem from an alienation from God and His plan for our lives. The only way out is to hear and follow what He says.

Compliments

January 17, 2017 By admin

Photo by Dreamstime

Dear God: It’s amazing how one word of praise can change a day! Heading out to the car after our small-group meeting last Thursday, Vince just sidled over to me and said in a low voice: “You guys have an awesome marriage. And I see how you treat Lisa – that’s amazing, man. Good job.”

Wow. I had never thought much about it; Lisa’s so incredible that being good to her isn’t exactly noble. But I glowed for the rest of the week.

Please help me to be more diligent and proactive about finding positive things to say to the people in my life. It’s such a game-changer when we praise and encourage those we love. I’d like to be more like you were here on earth, “always going around changing water into wine.” Making every occasion a party.

In Jesus’ name, Amen!

You Are the Light

January 12, 2017 By admin

“You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand…” 
Matthew 5:14-15 (NLT) Context
