My job for the never-ending day that’s on its way will be to bask in, reflect, and radiate the love of God. I will celebrate His love, His mercy, and His presence forever.

Let Love Blaze With God’s Spirit

Hearing what
A sermon says
Without checking
What the Bible says
Is dangerous.
Hearing what
The Spirit says
As you read
What the Bible says
Will set your heart
On fire with blazes
Of God’s love,
But hearing
What the Spirit says
Without doing
What He says
Is self-deception.
The Bible is
A hearing aid
To help you hear
And inspire you
To obey
What the Spirit says.
It’s not a textbook
To be taught.
Its words are
A heart-warming fire
To be caught,
Carried and spread
Throughout each day.

The Holy Spirit doesn’t follow an exact pattern. The Holy Spirit leads as He wills if a congregation is willing and courageous enough to obey Him.

It’s very frustrating for me to attend a church where the Holy Spirit isn’t allowed to take direct control of the meeting. It takes more than a lifetime of sermon-hearing to make someone a Christian. “He who has ears to hear let him hear what the Spirit is saying.”

Just because some Legos are in the same box doesn’t mean that they are assembled together. Just because Christians are attending the same church service doesn’t mean that they have assembled themselves together. “Let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is, but exhorting one another.” Hebrews 10:24-25. Truly assembling together requires that we consider one another, provoke one another to love and good works, and exhort one another.

When people who read the Bible and listen to the Holy Spirit throughout the week go to church, they don’t need a sermon. They need an open mic so they can share what God has been showing them. See 1 Corinthians 14:26.

Since Christians are in every country, the idea of Christian nationalism makes no sense. The body of Christ is worldwide, not on any nation’s side.
