Outsider in His Presence?

Testimony Time:-Good morning to all Soldiers of Christ and welcome to a new day. I congratulate you for the victory of the night because it is those that the Lord had restored that can only be empowered to see the beauty of another day. (Psalm 145:20) Isaiah 46:6 says "I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles". Today should therefore be seen as a Covenant, specially wrapped and delivered as a gift by God. Certainly, it has become an empowerment for us to continue to be the light unto the Gentiles. The Gentiles however represent a group of non–Jew who claims from Israelite heritage. It is also a term that is often used to describe outsiders. Although people see you as a Child of God, are you still an outsider in His Presence? And how do you see today in terms of your presence before God? What does today represent as a gift to you? Does it remind you about His Covenant or is it another ploy to cast your vote on the illicit gain of yesterday? If indeed you have been restored so that you can be a light in the camp of unbelievers, then you have the empowerment to do just that, nothing less! Any acts that violated this conduct makes one susceptible to the whims and caprices of the antichrist, and such person would be spiritually dead, he/she would then have been filled with unclean spirits. In Mark 1: 21-28, Jesus looked deeper into the issues with unclean spirit more than the outward rules. He identified them and cast out "spirits of uncleanliness" that have haunted their victims, spirits that have stunted or destroyed people’s relationships with one another and with God. "Do we have such "spirits of uncleanliness" among us today? Of course! Do we need to exorcise them from our midst if we are to be proclaimers of the Gospel of God? Definitely! No church can survive if these spirits remain healthy and strong in our midst because they will always bring confusion in their reign. These can only happen when you drop your armor as a Soldier of Christ. It starts by taking each day as a pinch of salt and by abandoning the Commandments of God. As a result, such person would then begin to live in the camps of the outsiders, either knowingly or unknowingly. I pray that will not be our portion in Jesus name. As Christians, we will begin to live according to the rules and ordinances of our Lord through Christ who alone can strengthen us. Amen Just checking in into His Presence...
