Called By Christ To Be ONE: HUNGRY FOR GOD'S WORD

Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever

Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.

Today, it is critical that those who have a heart for God are aware of what God is doing and speaking today. God is opening up His Word like never before in preparation for The Time Of The END. I exhort you to open up your heart and your eyes to see what He is doing and your ears to hear what God is speaking at this time. My prayer is that we will be able to stand before the Son of Man at His appearing, without fault and with great joy. I encourage you to read David Wilkerson's book, America's Last Call at davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com. Also, Google, Tommy Hicks Prophecy, 1961 for a view of the End Times.

Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.

To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.

Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!

Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!

Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!

HUNGRY FOR GOD'S WORD

Hungry for God’s Word

David Wilkerson

September 12, 2017

“The joy of the Lord is your strength” (Nehemiah 8:10). At the time these words were proclaimed, the Israelites had just returned from captivity in Babylon. Under the leadership of Ezra and Nehemiah, the people had rebuilt Jerusalem’s ruined walls. Now they set their sights on reestablishing the temple and restoring the nation.

Nehemiah called a special meeting at the city’s Water Gate within Jerusalem’s rebuilt walls (see Nehemiah 8:1). The first thing that happened was the preaching of God’s Word.

A hunger for the Word had developed among the people, so they did not need to be urged to listen. And they were fully prepared to submit to the authority of the Word, wanting to be governed by it and conform to its truth.

Amazingly, Ezra preached to the crowd for five or six hours. What an incredible scene. I believe it would be hard to find such an occurrence in the modern church. Yet true restoration can never take place without this kind of all-consuming hunger for God’s Word.

Make no mistake, at the Water Gate in Jerusalem there was no eloquent preaching. Ezra didn’t deliver a sensational sermon. Rather, he preached straight from the Scriptures, reading for hours on end and explaining the meaning. And as the people listened they grew excited.

At times Ezra was so overcome by what he read that he stopped to “[bless] the Lord, the great God” (8:6). The glory of the Lord came down powerfully and everyone raised their hands in praise. In repentance and brokenness, “they bowed their heads and worshiped the Lord with their faces to the ground” (8:6). Then they stood up to experience even more.

There was no manipulation from the pulpit, no dramatic testimony. There wasn’t even any music. These people simply had an ear to hear everything God said to them.

Beloved, I believe the Lord desires to move among his people in the same way today. If we are going to see this type of revival and restoration we must have a hunger and excitement for the Scriptures as Ezra did!
