Beloved glory and honor to the God of heaven , our loving Father for seeing us through the first five months of the year and bringing us to the sixth.

Beloved, today in the church of Christ globally, many are wondering, why there is dearth of the great and marvelous things experienced by Bible days believers.

Psalms 74:9 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways – 2 Chronicles 7:14

The reason for this is not far fetched. The global church of Christ has forgotten the most important foundational truth. So God has momentarily departed, waiting for the church to wake up from her slumbering.

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

The preachers encouraged the chronic sinners to come to Christ as they are, just believing and having faith in Christ.

They have neglected repentance and turning away from sins and bringing forth fruits meet for repentance. See what is lacking in the universal church of Christ.

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways – 2 Chronicles 7:14

Beloved pause here and examine yourself. Have you repented? Have you follow it up with restitutions, the fruit of repentance?

Act 26:20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

It is only if you have done these , that you shall be qualified fo the dawning rapture and eternity with God. May the good Lord help you in particular to be wise unto salvation in Jesus name.
