Too many people in the church are hanging on to what God is saying to let go of. They say "Why aren't you anointing me -- why aren't you blessing me." The anointing of God only falls on fire, on sacrifice. Where is your fire? He is a God that can save you, change you, deliver you -- we have to tell people that. He died as our sin. Revival is a lifestyle we walk in.

The tomb is empty and God has invited you in that you might die with Christ. You are not going to find Christ in a dead church. Don't look for the living amongst the dead.

Question to ask myself: Am I living by the standard of the most lukewarm person I know or am I living by the standard of Jesus. The antichrist spirit in the church today doesn't challenge, convict or put demands on people. Apathy has gripped the American church -- over indulged in complacency and casualness. The moment you get casual you loose holiness. Religion gives you just a piece of God to satisfy.

We can't fight the kingdom of darkness if the kingdom of darkness is our entertainment.

Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, don't allow another generation of easily offended Christians who lust for money, power, position, and pleasure to be birthed. Please fill us with a more intimate knowledge of Your Son's splendor and loveliness before You bring a multitude of new believers for us to train and equip to advance Your Kingdom.
