Rise, bring forth the news to all the nations that Christ will come, and when He comes, He’ll be riding on a horse as a warrior. Be ready, for God’s ride is at hand. We already carry out our mission, bringing forth the Good News, making disciples, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Rise, bring forth the new news. Share the saving grace. Do not be afraid, for God is with you. He’ll guide your steps, your words, your thoughts, your deeds — only if you are alive, surrendered to His will.
Bend, change the path you’ve been on. Confess your sin, never turn back. Reject the lies of people. Humble yourself before the throne. Become like a child, completely surrendered, trusting that God will provide — no longer looking to this world to satisfy the pleasures and comforts wrapped up in money and storehouses. Become dependent on God again. Reject the evil of this world. Be on guard, and when evil looks about, take it with a stance. Reject it, for you are in battle.
Never looking back, take ground, growing in faith and belief, no longer turning away. Take as many of the lost with you before the time comes up. Heed the window, for when it closes, the end is near. This does not necessarily mean the end of the world; our lives are finite on this earth. What you do with that is what matters — for Christ and His Kingdom.
You were planted for a purpose. Carry it out. Do not waste your time. Every moment is a time to serve God or reject Him and seek your comforts. What will you do with the time at hand — this time, this moment?
