                               “Lord of Lords”
 Habakkuk 3:2
I have heard all about You, LORD.  I am filled with awe
by the amazing works.  In this time of our deep need, help us again
as you did in years gone by.  And in your anger, remember your mercy.  (NLT)

     Our God did not create us to survive on our own, nor does He sit on His throne in Heaven and watch us destroy ourselves and do nothing.  From the moment God created the first man, He has not only been protecting and providing for us, but He is also very active in our history and redemption. Because out of the Lord’s heart flows a love for human beings so great that we will never completely comprehend its full measure.  It's out of God’s abundant mercy and amazing grace that we even exist, and it's truly amazing that throughout human history most people live as if God doesn't exist; that there is no one to hold them accountable for satisfying the hungers of their carnal flesh.   And yet, the Lord does not give in and annihilate us because of our evil and rebellion against Him.  The lies and deception that Satan uses to blind people from the Truth is running ramped and out of control.  But the true Message of God, in all its richness, keeps pressing on changing one heart and saving one soul at a time. 
     Because we are living in the last days of the Church age, the Good News of salvation through Christ is being spread like never before.  The Savior of the world has overcome this dark and evil world by victoriously defeating sin and death so that we, too, could follow suit.  This Good News is the only hope we have of surviving this fallen life with our eternal souls safely in the hands of God.   The day is coming, my friends, when Satan’s reign on this fallen world will suddenly end and God’s redemptive plan will come into completion.  And on this day everyone will be held accountable for how they lived this first leg of their life-journey.  Don’t wait for that day to fall on your knees and proclaim that Jesus Christ is Lord, for then it will be too late!

                                                  A Whisper of Hope
Come to Me, dear child…for only I can save you from the sure death and destruction that will consume this world and all those who belong to it.  Never doubt My ability to protect and provide eternal life for you.  Ask in faith and it shall be given unto you.

Philippians 2:9-11
God raised Him up to the heights of Heaven and gave Him a name
that is above every other name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee
will bow, in Heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue
will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.  (NLT)

                 “Great and marvelous are Your actions, 
                                  Lord God Almighty!
                          Just and true are Your ways.
                                     (Revelation 15:3)
