As I watched, the Lamb broke the first of the seven seals on the scroll. Then I heard one of the four living beings say with a voice like thunder, “Come!”
I looked up and saw a white horse standing there. Its rider carried a bow, and a crown was placed on his head. He rode out to win many battles and gain the victory.
Revelation 6:1-2 NLT
Today is the day of salvation. Many are having their spiritual eyes and ears opened and are repenting of living self-directed lives and turning to follow God in obedience to the Holy Spirit’s leading.
It’s time to shed your religious skin, whatever religion you are serving. Religion is a system. Faith is a relationship. God is inviting us, all of us, to follow Him. Many are called, few are chosen.
When you know God, listen to His voice, and obey Him, He blesses that. He leads us to serve others in love and humility.
Religion is a cruel mistress. She shuts the door to the Kingdom of Heaven and forbids others to enter in. She demands worship of her own self-serving religion that has no power to save. Only Jesus saves. Only Jesus leads His Children.
It might seem difficult at first, but once you find freedom, you will walk in fellowship and communion with God Himself.
The world and everything in it will be consumed by fire. Our God is a consuming fire. The fire of God burns out the impurities and all that will remain will shine like pure gold.
We are the Tabernacle of God. We are the Temple of God. We are the Body of Christ.
Tribal, national and political differences are immaterial in the Kingdom. There is only One True God and we serve only Him. He is more than capable of leading His Church. It’s time to follow Jesus and live the abundant life.
Follow Me, says the Lord. I will show you the way.
Father in Heaven, have mercy on us. Forgive us our sins. Restore us to right relationship with You. Fill us with the Holy Spirit so that we have the desire and ability to do the things which please You. Forever lead us as Your Church to do Your will on Earth as it is always done in Heaven. Free us from religious entanglements that are not led by the Spirit of God. In the Name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
After this I saw a vast crowd, too great to count, from every nation and tribe and people and language, standing in front of the throne and before the Lamb. They were clothed in white robes and held palm branches in their hands.
And they were shouting with a great roar, “Salvation comes from our God who sits on the throne and from the Lamb!”
