Get Your Home In Order!

(A Post by Monica)

How do we behave when a visitor is coming to our home? We make sure it is clean, we are sure to have refreshments available, and are very accommodating toward them. We want to make sure they are as comfortable as possible. Even if there is a dispute going on between family members, this is hidden from the visitor(s) because we know we are being watched and it has been taught to us from a child up to put our best foot forward when the people we value have an eye on us.




Well, I will tell you this, The Most High God is watching us EVERYDAY and He is looking for us to get our home IN ORDER!
The time is near for Christ's return and He is looking to gather His sheep (Isaiah 40:11, John 14:3, 1 Thess 4:13-18). It is SO imperative for us to get our household in order because He is watching. What are you teaching your children? How are you treating one another? Are you REALLY Hanging the Law (10 commandments) on the two commandments Jesus Christ gave us which are:

  • Love The LORD with all your heart, soul and strength (Keeping the First 4 commandments prove you are doing this)
  • Love your neighbor as you love yourself (Keeping the last 6 commandments prove you are doing this)
If so, you will love all the members of your household and help them keep the 10 commandments as you are suppose to. 
The Bible tells us that Christ came NOT to bring peace, but a sword.. Separating mothers from daughters, fathers from sons.. (Matt 10:34-35).
Wouldn't you like to be one of the RARE families that AREN'T separated?! I know that is MY prayer for MY family! And not only my prayer, but the actions of helping my family be cohesive in The Word of God. Then, anything that we weren't able to accomplish, Christ's mercy & grace will fill in. 
The Bible tells us to:
  • Pray non-stop, for ourselves and each other (1 Thess 5:17, Luke 18:1, James 5:16, Matt 18:20)
  • Study and fill ourselves with the Word of God (2 Tim 2:15, Matt 6:33, Hebrew 11:6)
  • Endure to the end (Matt 24:13, Rev 14:12)
And your reward will be great.. The reward of being with The Heavenly Father & the entire host of heavens FOREVER!

So I implore you... Get your family in order, teach them the TRUTH of God.. Do bible study together.. Keep His Sabbath Day Holy together and do it in joy and gladness (Deut 6:7;11:19, Isaiah 58:13-14, Psalms 119:33-48).
