WORSHIP SONG for TUESDAY - Long ago on the night that JESUS was born, the city of Bethlehem lay sleeping in oblivion as to what was taking place in their town. Sure, the angels celebrated in the skies, Mary, Joseph and Shepherds understood, even the Wise Men got in on it. But for the most part Bethlehem was unaware of what took place and Who became their newest Resident that night. Unknown to them, the KING had left HIS Throne and was sleeping in a manger on that night! As Jesus grew from an Infant into a Man, Jerusalem became much like Bethlehem as many either ignored Him, dismissed Him or were unaware of Him. Even in His death, there were very few around the cross and even His own ran off into the night. America is just like Bethlehem and Jerusalem - Jesus, for the most part isnt much more than a curse word among many people. Of course there are many Who are His Followers, Sheperds following the Star and Wise Men seeking Him daily. But by and at large our nation either ignores Him, dismisses Him, hates Him or is unaware of the fact that He is Who He claimed to be - the Savior of the World and the Giver of everlasting life. At the time of His birth, the world lay sleeping and unaware of His coming and it will be the same the second time around. One of His promises is I will come again! And the writer of the New Testament Book of Hebrews says, “In just a little while, HE who is coming will come and will not delay.” It may not be in my lifetime but it could be and eventually it will be....JESUS will return to planet earth. Not to save it but to judge it. People will turn to Christ by the millions but it will be too late for those who will still refuse to believe. They will sleep through it and miss it until it is too late. Can I say something bold without offense or anger....WAKE UP! Wake up to the reality of the Truth! The Bible is the Word of God and the Word tells us that we are accountable to God and that JESUS is the only Way, the only Truth and the only Life and that no one gets to God except through Him. Dont allow the world to lull you to sleep and dont allow your own unbelief to cause you to miss it because there will not be a third opportunity. Bethlehem went down in history as the city with no room for their King....Jerusalem rejected His offer and went their own way into destruction.....America? Youve been given an opportunity, dont miss HIM as others did!
