OUR TIME TO SHINE

There is today the possibility of the Church looking around at the world and throwing up our hands in
despair, cloistering ourselves in our sanctuaries and “holing-up” till Jesus comes.

May I tell you, Jesus is not coming back after a “hold-up” church, but after a victorious Church that is HOLDING
UP THE BLOOD-STAINED BANNER OF THE CROSS OF CHRIST! This is our time to shine!

If you want to live in the land of gloom and doom and be a gloomy fault-finder, you can.
If you want to stand on the sidelines of spiritual life and grumble, you can.
If you want to see the dark cloud in front of every silver lining, you can.
If want to hear the crack of doom descending at every tragedy, and list all the ways the world is falling apart, you can!

But, for the Christian, there is a better way! For the sake of the Christ, let’s allow the Son of Righteousness
to shine brightly through our lives. Let’s exude the fragrance of the Rose of Sharon from our lives.
Let’s be lifters-of-the-fallen, healers-of-the-hurting and rescuers-of-the-wayward!

Especially now, don’t give up on the Church, on the Kingdom, on the Plan of God, on the Hope of
the Rapture nor on Our Coming King! VICTORY IS OURS!
