THE ASSEMBLY

Hebrews 10:24-25 ... consider one another ... not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together ...  
   The church is under heavy attack, bombarded by special interests, forsaken for social agendas, scattered by the next best "worship" experience, it lacks the authority once reserved for the Holy. God's intended bride has become a laughing stock, a place where the worldly find comfort in stained living, the garment of the bride to be is, torn, dirty and ill fitting.
   John hears Jesus say, that men, God's church, "Have left their first love." Revelations 2:4 The seat of real relationships is abandoned for the lure of the world. Why? Within the veil of the righteous servants of God, the lewdness of disobedience has been exposed, the naked flesh of attraction to unspiritual and unscriptural living, is scoffed on and the world has lost respect for the empire of Gods Kingdom on earth.
   Duty, became the assembly call and the church abandoned a relationship with the King of glory, for a casual gathering, to take inventory of sin. Once, hunger to serve the Master, thirst to hear His Voice, passion to lay down ones life for His Glory, now the smell of immorality, flashes of Truth, and disdain for Holy living.
    "Repent and do the first works," Revelations 2:5 we are being called back to the very core of worship, putting everything aside and bending the knee to, God the Creator, Jesus our Savior and the Holy Spirit of Truth. The danger of losing the light and the rightful place with God is here and now!
    God is looking to see if anyone, will live victorious in Christ, that He may give to them the right to eat in His presence from the Tree of Life, for eternity. Have you trusted Him with everything, do that today, you will have eternity to thank Him.
Heavenly Father You are worthy of all praise, to You belongs the right to be worshiped, in You only will we find rest, let us look to You and put away the desire for wordly living. May we begin again to consider others better than ourselves and seek You above all else? Help us to once again live to put You first that all may see Your light. Oh God, make your bride pure that she might please You! Amen
