Man is capable of making any sacrifice to find the Lord, but all he has to do is believe in what He says in the Scriptures. God has put in His Word the sure guidelines for us to walk in His presence, without having to sacrifice anything. Understand: what can we give to the One who owns everything, from animals to precious stones, including us? The Most High is the Creator of all things and our Father!

          Everything passes in this life, including governments, whether well-meaning or not. Unfortunately, apparently humble people ask for our vote and, once elected, steal our tax money. No country will grow if there are people like that. Consider it an obligation to cry out to the Lord to deliver us from corruption (1 Timothy 2:1-3). The country needs a righteous people!

            Jesus warned that the time was coming for true worshippers to have their place in the Sun, so they should learn the art of worshipping God. That way, the people could learn to do it too. We worship the Lord for what He does for the suffering and the lost. We praise Him for the salvation that is available to humanity. Be faithful, and God will give you the perfect crown of life!

           With the coming of Christ, the biblical promises would be fulfilled in the lives of those who believed. Today, we don't have to wait any longer to enjoy the rights guaranteed by God in His Word. When you discover a promise, claim it. Then, when you know what has been done on your behalf, - such as the forgiveness of your sins, the healing of illnesses and eternal life, which is a free gift from the Most High - take hold of it immediately through your prayer (Ephesians 2.8).

           The Master declared that there are true worshippers and the Father is looking for them. On the other hand, many play at faith, joining in with the tares. They will be plucked up, bound in bundles and thrown into the eternal fire (Matthew 13.24-30; 36-43). Why do some prefer to walk this path? Well, they could humble themselves before the Most High and be saved and forgiven of their iniquities. Those who are firm in their faith in Christ, walk securely, without fear of Judgment.

          True worshippers can enter the Lord's presence to give Him the praise He deserves; they have been brought to the Father for this. The world will soon be in great confusion, as Jesus said: For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. This are the beginning of sorrows (Mark 13:8). Jesus is our Ark of Salvation. Go to Him!

           The heavenly Father never tires of casting His eyes over humanity, seeking to see those who worship Him in spirit and in truth. It's good to prepare to be found by Him in order to be spared the impending chaos. There will be no safe place to hide from the suffering that humanity will face. Take refuge in Jesus (1 Thessalonians 1:10)!

           In Christ, with love,
