What Will Stand......Will You?

Everything will be shaken.   The question is ..... what will stand?   Will you?  

God is who He is.....He has said what He is going to say.....are you listening?  When will you understand that this life is temporal and God's word is real?    You say you believe.....yet you still do what you want to do.   You live like you want to live and say what you want to say.    You trust when it's easy and you experience faith failure when things get hard.  

When will you truly trust Him.   Believe Him.   Lean on Him.   Depend on Him.  

True faith requires .... true dependence.    When you depend........it means you truly rely on.   It means that  your faith and your trust is not divided.    It means that  your condition....your state of being is "determined by" something or someone else.    When  you look at your life.....what has determined where you are today?   What or who has been the deciding factor in your choices.   What was the basis of your choices?   Was it God's word or your will?   

Now we are at the threshhold.   We have to understand that the "spiritual" lines up with the "physical".   The Bible talks about earthquakes in "divers" places.   When I hear that....I hear.....earthquakes in "diverse" places.   Not the norm.   Different places.   What you have to understand is that when the earth shakes....everything that is standing on the earth is shaking with it.   

UNDERSTAND today......that your life is being shaken.    The question is ...... will you be left standing.  When all is said and done....when everything that doesn't  line up with the plan, purpose, and will of God is shaken off.   What will be left?  It is at that time that the truth is revealed.   When all the outward acts and all outward displays are removed ....... what will be seen at that time is the truth of what is inside of you. 

The question is.....is there enough substance of who God is inside of you to weigh you down when everything around you is moving, shaking, and being broken?

I want to be more like you, Lord. I want to be able to STAND. I don't want to be like Peter. You are my everything!!! I pray daily John 10:27-29. Then I realize that I am not Peter and I have a better covenant. I will stand!!!
Thank you Lord for loving me so much.
