Lukewarm

The speaker begins by praying to God and asking for guidance. They then discuss the importance of being on fire for God and not being lukewarm in one's faith. They emphasize the existence of heaven and hell and encourage listeners to research and seek the truth. The speaker shares their own experiences with God's love and emphasizes that God will never reject or abandon them. They urge listeners to let God into their hearts and live a life filled with love, joy, and purpose. The speaker encourages sharing this message with others and concludes with a prayer of gratitude to God. Dear Lord, I come before you today and I humbly ask and I lift each and every person up to you. Open their ears, their hearts, and their minds, Lord. I give you all praise, all glory. Because of you, this is possible. I thank you. In Jesus' name, amen. Hey there. In today's episode, I have a few things to go over. I've done this a couple times now and it's like the devil doesn't want me to get this out. So, I rebuke Satan. He is not welcome here and I ask this through Jesus' name. First and foremost, I have a few questions for you. Are you lukewarm for God? Why are you lukewarm for God? Does he not provide for you every single day, day in and day out? You're breathing, right? That's God. Why wouldn't you want to be on fire for God, the one and only God who can save us? We can't save ourselves, even if we try. It's only for a brief period of time before it all comes crumbling down on us. So, I say this to you, never, never be ashamed for your love of God. And I'm going to go back to an episode that I talked about being a people pleaser and that we need to be God pleasers. If you don't believe and think there is nowhere to go after your life on earth, I hope I can get you to understand one thing. The one thing is that there is heaven and there is a hell. We do have good and we do have evil. So, why would you risk a chance of going to hell? Why wouldn't you take the chance that you could have eternal life in God's promise? Even if you don't believe, why wouldn't you try to figure out the truth for yourself, just to make sure? Why wouldn't you take the chance of not finding out before it's too late? I mean, come on, I'm sure you've researched things like where to eat, where to travel, where to live, what to buy, what's safe and what's not safe. Why wouldn't you research for yourself so you can know what God has promised us all? He has given us the hope through his son, Jesus Christ, and gave us a second chance. Why wouldn't you take it? Why wouldn't you want to be on fire for something that will bring you to a place he describes as milk and honey? There will be no more pain, no more suffering, no disease, no death or evil. Why would you be so lukewarm for God when he promises this to you? And no one can choose this for you but you through Jesus Christ. Ask him to come into your heart and you will be transformed. I can only give you my experiences I have had with God and let you know his love is like no other, like nothing here on earth. But you have to want it. You have to let him in. And no, you won't be perfect and it won't be easy and you will fall and you will fail but our God, our God will get you back up. He will never reject you. He will never turn his back on you. Can you say that about the people around you? Can you say that the people that you've surrounded yourself have never done that to you, never turned their back on you, never have left you? I certainly can't but I know one thing, God has never left me. He will carry you when you can't carry yourself. And I will never stop saying this because I believe it and I've experienced his true love time and time again. So I will continue to keep saying God is mercy. God is a God of grace. God is a God who keeps his promises and he is a God who will always love you. There is nothing lukewarm about God. So why would you allow yourself to stay this way? Be on fire for God and allow him to transform your life. It will be the best thing that will ever happen to you. It will be your testimony to what God does for you. So I ask you to come on this journey with me, learn, grow and build your relationship with God our Father who loves us. The beginning, the end, the maker of heaven and earth, the Alpha and the Omega. He will not disappoint you. As I was doing my research for this episode, I came across Revelations 3 verses 15 and 16 and let me tell you, this hit me to the core. It shook me. It made me realize I don't want to be lukewarm for God ever. I want him to come on judgment day and look at me and allow me in. Revelations 3, 15, 16 says, I know your deeds that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other. So because you are lukewarm, neither hot or cold, I'm about to spit you out of my mouth. What harsh words those are. That it should open your eyes, your minds, your hearts. And in Revelations it talks about how Jesus is coming and when he comes, I don't want to imagine him saying those words to me. But I too have been guilty. I too have been in sin of being lukewarm. I too have fallen and dropped my cross many times. But I can testify, just like it says in the Bible, that Jesus brought Lazarus back from the dead. He too can bring us back. And he did for me. We tend to be on fire for God only when we really need him. When we're in desperate times. And when that desperate time is over and he fulfills our need, the fire starts to sizzle off. We need to stop being lukewarm when things turn out okay. We need to be on fire for God in good times and continue even in our bad times or our mundane times or the times that it seems like nothing is happening and it's stagnant. You still need to be on fire. We should be praising him every single day for the good, the bad, or whatever comes into our lives. Don't you want to be on fire for God, just like Lazarus was brought from the dead? Don't you want that feeling of being alive and that fire within you that comes from God? Let Jesus work in you and ask him into your heart right now. Ask him to set your heart on fire for him, for his purpose, his will, and to make you alive in him. Your aliveness through Jesus Christ will bring you a newfound peace, love, joy, and happiness into your heart that you have never felt before. No one on this earth can fill you like Jesus. No one on this earth can make you feel the love that Jesus will give you. No one, I say, not even your spouse, your sisters, your parents, no one. They can love you, but it will never be like Jesus' love. Jesus has great things in store for you, my brothers and sisters in Christ. He wants you to be happy. He wants you to live a life of abundance through him. He wants you to be alive. He wants you to live for his glory, his praise, so one day you will live with him in eternal life, in his promise, a life in paradise with no sickness, no poverty, no mental illness, no wickedness. God is a healer. He is your healer. God is a God of truth. God is a God of filled promises, and he never lies. So come follow him, and I ask you, are you lukewarm for God? Why are you lukewarm for God? He provides for you each and every day. Why wouldn't you want to be on fire for someone who does that for you? I hope you enjoyed today's episode, and I ask you to share it with someone else, someone in need, someone who needs to hear that God loves them. God will not lie. He's a God of mercy and a God of grace, so share it with someone in need. So until next episode, keep bibling, keep spreading God's word, and lift up those around you, and stop being lukewarm. Set your heart on fire for God. I thank you for listening, and I hope that I reach at least one person so that they can ask God into their heart. Lord, I thank you. I thank you for bringing each and every person here today to listen to your word, because without you, none of this would be possible. None of us can do it without you, Lord. I lift each and every person up to you, Lord. Whatever they may be going through, whatever they may be feeling, and if they're lukewarm, Lord, I ask that you set their hearts on fire for you, because you're a God of glory. You're a God of promise. You're a God of grace. You're a God of mercy, and I thank you and praise you and give you all the glory, because each and every day, you give us another chance, and I thank you for that chance. I glorify you, Lord, and I am not ashamed of your love or the love that I have for you, and I praise you in Jesus' name. Amen. When I'm down, when the wolves come around, when my feet hit the ground, I just need, I just need you. On my darkest day, when I'm losing faith, knowing it's okay, I just need, I just need you. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
