Where Do You Stand!!!

I can remember going to church as a little girl and singing on the choir. I remember getting baptized when I was about 15, I remember reading my Bible and learning The Lord's Prayer, and I also remember after all of that leaving the church and going my own way. Not until 2 years ago did I honestly get saved. I realized everyone who screams Jesus, says Amen and shout that they are saved. Was not the devil an angel? Now the bible does say "if thou shall confess with thou mouth The Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God had raised Him from the dead, you will be saved".

Where do you stand? There's no in between with it comes to following God, so where do you stand?

The question is do you think that is enough to get you into the kingdom? My opinion no. Let me tell you why!
 In Matthew 7:21 it says "Not everyone who says to Me "Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven." As I stated in a previous blog there is a mark you have to meet. I don't care if you go to church every Sunday and sit on the first pew and quote every scripture, if you are not living right, well lol you're going to be hot.

You can't sin Monday through Saturday and claim Jesus on Sunday. God wants us to live right. I have people tell me "I still do what I want but I believe in Jesus, but I'm getting it together" that blows my mind because first you don't even know how long you have to get it together, second God is merciful but he doesn't want you to abuse his grace and mercy by continuing to do the same thing over and over.

Now God forgives those who heartily repents but God wants us to be Holy. We are told to examine ourselves. 2Corithians 13:5-6 "Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you-unless indeed you are disqualified.

God loves us, he wants us in that number, "walk in the spirit, and you shall fulfill the lust of the flesh". You won't get it right everyday all day, you will stumble, but if you are committing sin willing each and everyday then I'm telling you, you are on the wrong path and you need to pick yourself up and turn around. None of us know the day nor the hour, why not be ready. Trust me sometimes I fall, and sometimes I fall hard but the spirit convicts me which leads me to repent and teaches me how not to fall back into that sin anymore. God is able to keep you from falling, if you believe he is able too. Let's start walking in the light and leave the dark streets for the enemy. Strive to live right and God willing I'll see you on the inside of those pearly gates. Be blessed my brothers and sisters.
