Hot or Cold ?
Priscilla
March 14, 2006
Tonight I was watching the news early evening when they showed the horrible
tornadoes and they also showed a map of two fronts colliding in the midwest.
As I saw that, the Lord put this impression in my mind about the division in
the church being like the two fronts of weather.
Then the scripture in Rev 3:15 came to my mind about the church of Laodicea...
Rev 3:14-18 Amplified version
14 And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the trusty and faithful and true Witness, the Origin and Beginning and Author of God's creation: [Isa 55:4; Prov 8:22.]
15 I know your [record of] works and what you are doing; you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot!
16 So, because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth!
17 For you say, I am rich; I have prospered and grown wealthy, and I am in need of nothing; and you do not realize and understand that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. [Hos 12:8.]
18 Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be [truly] wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see 19 Those whom I [dearly and tenderly] love, I tell their faults and convict and convince and reprove and chasten [I discipline and instruct them]. So be enthusiastic and in earnest and burning with zeal and repent [changing your mind and attitude]. [Prov 3:12.]
20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears and listens to and heeds My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he [will eat] with Me.
21 He who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant him to sit beside Me on My throne, as I Myself overcame (was victorious) and sat down beside My Father on His throne. 22 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the [Holy] Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).
Also Lois' experience where she heard a knock on the door, yet noone was there
came to my mind again. And I felt the Lord wanted to say something later tonight as I had contemplated it and gotten distracted for awhile.
" I would that you were hot and cold or cold I have said. Yet many here are not either. They are overcome by lies, complacency and apathy.
I called you to repentance when I allowed the 9-11 disaster, and some
came to repent. But it has been years and still there is so little change in people' s hearts and instead of being softer , many are still sleeping.
Many hearts have grown cold and self centered and fearful. But so few run to ME, the Author of LIFE.
I am not a man that I should lie. What is coming is foretold already in My Word.
Many have not understood, but you will watch and see it all unfold.
Will you listen for my voice now My church in America ?
Will you now bow to MY WILL over what YOU want ?
Again you will be visited by more disasters, one after another, and
I will remove all the complacency !
I will also have mercy on those who don't even know they need it , because I am a God of love and I honor My Word. I will pour out unprecedented GRACE and love for the remnant has not been sleeping. They have been praying, fasting, pleading and weeping. And their prayers have come up to me like a sweet smelling aroma. I am well pleased with My bride and her progress. And I am about to enlarge her borders and extend My heart to all nations. Multitudes in the valley of decision. Multitudes will have to make a choice for good or for evil -
For ME, or to deny My love !
You will be surprised My church at who I use in this next wave.
It will not be because you have prayed enough.
I am letting you know now to not steal MY GLORY !
It will NOT be because you have been so pious.
It will be because of MY GREAT GRACE.
Because apart from ME, you can do NOTHING !
I will not give my GLORY to another !
Do not TOUCH MY GLORY ! Or you will have an abrupt response !
I am doing a NEW THING in the earth and no man shall boast !
Those things you have longed to see are coming. Those things you have hoped to see are coming ! The train is moving FASTER my beloveds. Have you gotten on ? The FREEDOM TRAIN is rolling in with JUSTICE and MERCY and tons of GRACE for those who will put their trust in ME.
I am coming to a neighborhood near you ! Will you come to ME ?
Will you bow down before Your GOD ? Or will you just watch and be a spectator ? I tell you I am through with spectator sports in My church !
I am looking for the ones who will be PASSIONATE about Me.
I will pour out My love if you will but RECEIVE IT ! Will you SLOW DOWN enough to receive, to hear, to listen ?
I am knocking on the door of your heart ! Will you come and talk with Me,
and walk with Me ? Will you come My beloveds ? What are you waiting for ?
What is holding you back. Ask ME and I will show you !
I am not complacent. I am not the one who is too busy.
I am here with you and available "24/7".
Will you let me in ? Do I have to weigh you down to slow you down ?
Think on that !
