There is a secret hidden deep within our souls. A realm unseen, yet always spoken about. The spiritual realm hidden where we can’t see it. Our time will come when we get the opportunity to see what’s been hidden, but that will come in its appointed time. The truth is, we’re taught to be sought after a life built in vain. Countless aching hours of work to obtain the physical things of this Earth you desire. Deep emotions and love poured out onto people that don’t appreciate it, yet they feel unloved just like you. The never ending striving intertwined through every bone which feels a bit like motivation stirred into pressure to do better.
Why do we do this to ourselves?
There has to be a reason for all of this striving. There needs to be a destination. Because without it, our lives are built in vain. Quarantine has brought into fruition what all of this means. Take away the money, take away the blood sweat and tears of this life and you’re left with quiet. Once the striving stops, the destination disappears right along with it. The things you thought mattered have been stripped away, revealing your raw, exposed mortality.
Our lives are short vapors in the wind. We’re here one moment, gone the next and forgotten in years to come.
There’s this sort of dark light about death. It contradicts what death truly is, making it seem far away, yet something once hoped for in the midst of hurt. That’s the things though, it’s not far away. It’s going to happen to every single one of us, whether thought about or not. You and I and everyone to ever breathe their first breath of life will pass away from this world.
It happens to everyone, big and small, weak and tough, young and old. In fact my sister died a sudden death at the young age of nineteen. I was seventeen when she went missing and not thinking anything of it, everyone she knew, including our family, went about our lives trying our best to be hopeful and denied the complete utter possibility that she could really be gone. Until, eventually we were forced to face to truth a chilling day, following Christmas. I soon learned that those next two years would be the hardest years of my life. She had been such a light in my life, and so many other people’s lives, yet she was gone in an instant. Her mortality had become as temporary as all of ours and that was something she would be subject to face at a young age.
I guarantee that night she was thinking of harmless, yet meaningless things like going to see her friend that was in town and the means she was gonna take to get to her house. How she was hungry and thought about the food she wished to eat in the hours to come. But the thing is, those hours never did come. Her imagination was in vain because what she wished to happen didn’t and now all that’s left of her is the faded memory of the life she once lived sinking aimlessly into the past.
In the year following my sister’s passing, I cried out to God, before I truly knew Him and told Him that regardless of where she may be, that I pray He reveals to me a sign of where she is now. A night or two later I received a startling dream. In the dream, I was walking through the woods in the dark of night and walked over train tracks to get to a cabin where my sister had lived in the dream. The cabin was placed deep in the woods and was completely isolated. The way to enter the house was through one of the ten small square rooms that led to the inside. The room I chose to enter was a dark red room with a small demonic creature that seemed to be taunting me. I got out of the room as quickly as possible and went into the living room to look for my shoes, which was the reason why I was there. I quickly searched around the living room and realized I was alone and my sister was yet to come back. That’s when I suddenly heard three large dogs barking in a different room. It sounded like they were warning me of something I didn’t know was there. So I ran into what appeared to be my sister’s room in the dream to see what was happening only to see demonic shadows going up and down and side to side, taunting me. I have never been so scared in my life. Quickly, I told the dogs to go outside and ran outside as fast as I could only to see my sister finally show up. There was a dark blotted out person behind her but I believe it was a guy she knew. Startled, I ran up to her and yelled through tears “Destiny, you need to get out of here, there’s something terrible living in your house, you can’t go in there” and I will never forget the shallow, blank look on her face as she looked into my eyes and responded, “they’re always here.”
The dream ended right after she said that and I woke up petrified of her fate. I believe I got the answer I asked for. I told God I wanted to know the truth regardless of what the truth was but now I almost wish I didn’t know. I don’t believe the dream was from God, because there was nothing good about it. But I do believe God allows certain things to happen and allowed that dream to be shown to me, and it happened to be quite symbolic and is stamped forever in my memory. The truth is, I don’t know for certain of my sister’s fate but what I do know is it happens to everyone and everyone will be subject to the life they lived while on this Earth, regarding who they followed, good or evil.
Life is about leaving a legacy.
I’m sure Amy Winehouse left a beautiful legacy, she created good music and inspired other generations to come. Maybe those generations to come will pass it on to other generations but in the end, if the whole Earth falls away, what was it all for?
It’s about being a good person.
None is good but God, our works are nothing but filthy rags in the eyes of our creator. It’s by His grace and goodness that we are able to know love and everything good that stands by it.
It’s about being a hard worker.
Hard work is a virtue but just as it is now, is it’s been stripped into nothing but unprecedented hope. It’s been ripped out of the hands of so many leaving no room for growth in a world stopped in its place.
Some say we came from apes, then how are apes still the same and why can’t they speak our worded language? If so, why didn’t animals like, dogs and giraffes evolve into completely different creatures as well as every other creature to exist?
Biblically, it states that human kind was given reign over all animals on the Earth. It’s true. Are animals given the resources to control what humans do? Of course not. Yet we have the ability to control the lives of all creatures. Look around you, all of the evidence reveals that we’re the primary organism on Earth.
Some say we came from star dust. But who made the stars? With everything physical, there is a beginning and an end; but with God there is no beginning and no end. He has never changed. Furthermore, where did moral values derive from if our lives are completely accidental?
Let’s say a random explosion just occured in your front yard. You look outside to check it out and to your surprise you see a perfectly sculpted Tesla with an engine for the intent of driving and headlights for the purpose of driving in the dark, and a tan leather interior intentionally created for sitting and even your favorite color blue poured over the exterior of the car making it, all-together, the perfect car for driving. But no, what you would see from the small explosion is dead grass with smoke withering above it and half of a remaining bush on fire. Because, explosions don’t create something out of nothing; they only destroy and don’t create.
Our Almighty Creator created each and every one of us with a hundred million light receptors in our eyes to see the glistening of the sun and clouds reflecting gently off of waves, each and every color on the color spectrum, animals, trees, flowers and all of the beauty life offers. He created twenty-four thousand fibers in each of our ears to vibrate to the wind rustling through the leaves in the trees, the birds singing in the morning, the beauty of a symphony, and the words I love you.
Each and every creature wakes up each morning knowing exactly what they are meant to do and go to work at it without question. Ants are one of the smallest creatures, yet strong and fierce. They are like a bold army set forth on each day as a journey, wasting no time, preparing their home in an orderly fashion, and not only for the day therof, but for seasons to come. Every animal on Earth knows exactly what to eat and how to obtain their meals for the day.
Each hair on our bodies, used for protection from germs and unwanted particles. Eyelashes protecting our eyes from dust; and eyebrows, from sweat. Hands; conveniently created with five fingers on each hand and finger nails to aid with tasks all around. Each bone, bound together with the strength of the spine willing to hold up the body, standing it upright. Cells endlessly at work, reproducing to create new skin and hair follicles keeping us safe and renewed from what our bodies endure. Two legs and feet perfectly symmetrical to keep the body standing with each limb measuring the optimal length to achieve balance.
Each human and animal has been personally created, specific to each detail, to accommodate each one’s purpose and the ordained will for its life.
From giraffes with long necks to reach the trees above for food and nourishment. Elephants with big ears, used as personal fans to relieve themselves of the heat and a long nose to drink water and cool themselves off. All the way to polar bears with large thin feet to equalize their weight over the snow and ice as well as a thick undercoat of fur, insulating them from the cold, regardless of frigid waters.
We are far from being accidental.
There is divine purpose embedded into creation and nothing is here on accident.
There is a reason why nearly every curse word only relates to God. Our flesh doesn’t like Him. Our flesh condones worldy pleasures and selfish desires. Nevertheless, using God’s name as a curse word makes us feel something.
Nobody has ever slammed their finger hard with a car door, only to say, ‘Mother of Buddah’
Because that wouldn’t feel like anything. It feels too soft to the soul due to its fallacy. Jesus’ name itself is used as a curse word ‘Jesus Christ’ and boy does it sting when used as a filth word. When no other god has ever been used as such.
There are people, predominantly athiests, who spend hours upon hours of each precious day, attempting to shut down Christ followers through a downpour of hatred. But think about it for a second. Do people do that for any other god? No. I’ve never witnessed a person spend fourteen aching hours a day, pouring out their hatred on a person who worships Allah or Buddah; because they know deep inside, that the One true living messiah is King Jesus. And every single soul will know the truth in the end. Hilter knows the truth and so does Stephen Hawking, as well as every soul who has ever been snatched into eternity.
Since the very beginning, when Jesus walked the Earth Himself; there have been miraculous healings performed by Him and divine intercedings of healings to this day.
People of all ages from the beginning even until now have had supernatural encounters with angels.
The internet floods with testimonials of people from every culture and walk of life that have experienced a complete turnover within their lives due to the power of Jesus.
There have been people with near death experiences, that with their soul out of their lifeless body, have returned to life, claiming to have witnessed Jesus and the spiritual realm.
Can any other God do that?
There is a moral conscience within each of us measuring good and bad, right and wrong. Through the knowledge imbedded deep within us, we know that no person is good according to God’s perfect standard of moral excellence. God loves us so much that He sent His only son Jesus, the visible image of the invisible God, as an offering to suffer the death penalty that we all deserved due to our sins. That now, if we repent and turn away from the darkness of this world and into the light of truth by trusting in Jesus and follow Him, our salvation is sealed, for eternity to come.
There are some of us tonight, planning for a tomorrow that will never come. Not realizing that life and death are seconds apart. I want you to remember that today is an opportunity, a gift of life given to you by your creator.
I pray the day set before you to recieve the judgement we will all soon face, does not come at you as a surprise.
Please get right with God today because you do not know if this hour will be your last.
If what I’m saying doesn’t make sense to you, it’s because what’s in the dark grows with darkness and what’s in the light will only reveal more residing truth.
Pray and ask God to reveal to you the truth and to lift the veil from your eyes.
I pray God blesses you and keeps you. You are so loved by Jesus and there is hope to come.
