WE COULD ALL BE REFUGEES ONE DAY (GOD CAN INSTANTLY TURN THINGS AROUND)…

https://videopress.com/v/wuOQDbnX?resizeToParent=true&preloadContent=metadata

Do you remember in Genesis chapters 46 and 47 how Pharaoh gave refuge to Joseph’s family (his father Jacob and his brothers and their families, the patriarchs) to flee the famine?

He provided for them from the best of the land.

The ‘fathers of the faith’ were refugees in Egypt.

Do you also remember in Matthew chapter 2 how when Yeshua, Jesus , was a child that Joseph sought refuge for his family as Herod had all boys age 2 and under were murdered?

Our Savior was a refugee in Egypt, even though some try to say He wasn’t so the story fits their desired narrative.

Yes, immigration must be controlled, but be careful not to let your politics harden your hearts.

If many people living today had lived back then, they would have met Jacob (Israel) and his sons at the border of Egypt and turned them away.

They would have met Joseph, Mary and Jesus at the border and sent them back.

The scene above from the 2004 movie, THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW, powerfully shows how quickly God could turn things around.

Be humble and don’t let evil make your heart grow cold.

Matthew 24:12 (NKJV)

12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

HAVE POLITICS & SOCIAL ISSUES DISTRACTED BELIEVERS FROM SHARING GOD’S LOVE, FORGIVENESS & SALVATION…

When Jesus was in the home of Mary and Martha, He reminded Martha that she had become distracted by what was ‘going on in the house’ rather than focusing on ‘who’ was in the house…

Luke 10:41-42 (NASB)

41 But the Lord answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things; 42 but only one thing is necessary; for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.”

Think about those who call themselves Christians.

Think about those who claim they make their decisions based on the bible.

Think about those who claim that they speak for God.

Has the enemy distracted believers from the core mission and message that Yeshua the Messiah gave us…

Matthew 28:19-20 (NKJV)

19 Go [a]therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” [b]Amen.

Is making disciples a priority?

Is sharing God’s love a priority?

Is ‘being the peace’ in chaos a priority?

Is sharing God’s forgiveness a priority?

Is sharing God’s gift of salvation a priority?

Are we as believers repenting of our own sins? Or blaming EVERYTHING that’s wrong on ‘sinners’?

2 Chronicles 7:14 (NKJV)

14 if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

Have we forgotten that we are all sinners saved by grace?

Ephesians 2:8-9 (NKJV)

8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Or, have we become distracted, just like Martha?

What do you think?

BE BLESSTIFIED!
