Hebrews 3:1-6 Message
3 So, my dear Christian friends, companions in following this call to the heights, take a good hard look at Jesus. He’s the centerpiece of everything we believe, faithful in everything God gave him to do. Moses was also faithful, but Jesus gets far more honor. A builder is more valuable than a building any day. Every house has a builder, but the Builder behind them all is God. Moses did a good job in God’s house, but it was all servant work, getting things ready for what was to come. Christ as Son is in charge of the house.
6 Now, if we can only keep a firm grip on this bold confidence, we’re the house!

The last few weeks I have been so discouraged by the response of the body of Christ in the elections. I have seen so many spears flying back and forth, all saying different things, but they share one common core. They all use the bible to back what they are saying and they all judge each other. I see the church in America tearing itself apart and over imperfect men.
Not long ago the Lord showed me a picture of Christians using the weapons of their old life in their new life. Can we instead come together and pray for our nation? Can we instead allow God to show us where we might be causing damage with our rights? Can we allow Him to show us where we are off on the blueprint of life and our inner structure He is building?

Jesus should be the centerpiece of every part of our life, He should be the center stage not the things that divide us. How He came and died to restore our relationship with God. That it is His sacrifice that cleanse us from our old ways of destructive behavior and allow us to live a new life. I pray that God put the one in office He wants, Which His word says He will, so that this nation can be restored to Him. But know that there is a president coming, in a coming election, that will be the worse yet and it will cause His church to turn to Him and only Him. It will bring the unity that is so necessary for the mission of GOD to be accomplished. Persecution is coming for everyone who claims Jesus as Lord and savior. Things are going to get rough and WHY??? Because the Church looks and acts like the world and has lost its power and way. Culture has shaped us instead of us shaping culture. Prayer is non existent unless it is to claim a blessing to make life easier. Lets make this the year we allowed God to change us and shape us into Bride. Lets make this year the year His power was evident in the Bride. Lets make this year that we are known for more of what we are for than what we are against. Lets Rise oh Sleepers and let Christ shine on us!!
