Many of the Elect shall fall by the way side


1 Timothy 4 (King James Version)

 in the final days  many shall fall by the way side from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.
 But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
 For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.
 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.
 These things command and teach.

As my brother Dustin and spoke after the men's prayer today, I realized something as my brother Don and sat at my house and BBQ and looked out at the woods in past my back yard. That a storm is coming, and we better get ready.

Brothers and sisters, I beseech you in these final day to become your brothers or sisters keeper, for Christ said it was not his nor the Father's will that any man should perish.  So yes we must become our brothers keeper, to  stand in the gap for him to pray for him. To get see about him when we notice he or she is not among the flock.
If a friend saw you going to trip over a hazard that he could have warned you about or moved. How would you feel if you asked him after why didn't he say anything or do something. His reply was that it was not his job to tell you.

WOW what a great friend he was?
But we all know the price for sin, do we not?
We are all sought after daily by the Lucifer, so know his intent is to take
everyone of us to hell with him.
Your a soldier's in the Lord's Army, meaning you leave no man behind, so take some time out of you busy day or busy morning or busy evening and lift up those you know and lift up the lost.

Each of us should have someone who hold us accountable in love, someone who will pray for you and encourage you and smack you up side the head when you need it.

Father God, let your children be busy in these final days doing your work.
Let us wake with a purpose to glorify you in our marriages, in work, with our families and with our friends and even our co-workers or boss.
