Can I Find A Witness
Is There Any

David in Psalm 53 describes the depravity of the natural man. Is there a man that will stand for God? The fool has said in his heart, there is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity; there in none that doeth good. He said that God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God. Every one of them is gone back; they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Have the workers of iniquity not knowledge? Who eat up my people as they eat bread; they have not called upon the God. Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people Jacob shall rejoice and Israel shall be glad. God want a witness. One that might serve as a witness of the evidence, or a monument that remind people of who He is and why He is. If God is our witness, so are we His witness. This means we have an inner conviction which we have of a certain truth.

Romans 2:15 which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another.

God is looking, He is searching for those that will seek Him and call upon Him again. Why have we stop calling on God? Why are we not praying against the demonic forces in the earth, in our homes, neighborhoods and sadly to say Churches? No one really wants to take the mantle and run for God out of love and obedience. David loved God and he was a man after God’s heart. But David realized that he was not above sin. He did wrong and when he realized it he repented. Are there any today that wants to confess their faults and sin; most time no because they never understand what they have done is sin. We are not above reproach. If we are to be the effective witnesses God intend us to be; we need restoring daily. When we keep a repentant he
art we can witness of God, of Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost. It’s time we be restored to the reality that we are human and have not made it to heaven yet although we may have had some of heaven come to the earth.

To everything there is a season, a time to live, a time to die, and a time to stand before God and confess our sin before Him. There is also a time to accept Him as Lord of Lord and King of King. We have a race to run and it isn’t to the ones that may run; the fastest, or is the strongest but to them that endure the race to the end. We are dying in the midst of the second and third mile. The first mile is confession of sins. The second mile is sanctifying ourselves as we learn the Word and applying it to our lives. The third mile is actually living Sanctified and Holy; pure before God and man. Who told you that once saved, always saved? That is a lie of the Devil. Once we get saved we have to continue on that course all the way to the end. Jesus said so and .He died for what He did and said. Who are we that we can change what Jesus our Redeemer said? Do we think we are gods? The run is for Heaven one day. Before God tells us to depart He will allow us to give our explanations about what we have done for Him before He pronounces His judgment on our soul. The soul of men is what the Devil plays with; he knows that the soul is what God breathe His Spirit in and man became a living soul. Man is a soul with a body

Everything in the earth has a season of life. As I watched the squirrel run across the electric power lines, I wondered how they can run across a live power source and not die. As a human I can’t do that and live. Every day the birds congregate on the electric wires assumedly to praise the Lord at a certain time every morning. They run a course every day on the live wires. The cows congregate together in expectancy of bad weather. Where do they run to when the weather gets boisterous? Where do the horses go? How is the animals protected from the bad weather? So many questions; one might say but it is something to be thought of. The animals are so unique in nature and they can do things that man wouldn’t dare challenge. We can live out in the rain if it is a drizzle or shower. But they live through the storms. Very rarely you hear of animals dying in a tornado or hurricane, wind storm, rainstorm or snowstorm; Why? Man can do things animals can’t do; such as drive automobiles. They have houses, homes and other means of shelter, but so does the animals. God has provided everything in the earth a man need so why do they act like animals throughout the course of their lives? God did make man differently from animals.

God created and made man and man also made things that would be useful to them in the earth. One thing they made was a light for darkness. God made the sun for the day and the moon for the night. Man also made lamps for light and God sent us the light; Jesus. Man doesn’t deviate far from the mind of the Creator in their inventions but they live as though they know not God. God gave them food for the body and man put everything in the body. God gave men helpmeets; a woman from their own body and now they want to clone man. How much more does man have to do to show God that he is more than the Creator Himself? They do everything imaginable to keep up the race for hell. Well you don’t have to do much to go to hell, just don’t obey God! God is saying can he find a witness among us that will stand up for what it righteous in his sight. We have to seek God for His righteousness; it’s nothing we have done that we should boast.

Salvation is worked on every day. In life yes we have the good, bad, and ugly to deal with but when it comes to God, we are running a race to win it. Heaven is a promise for the obedient. We know we face things in the earth because we are human. We also know that we have a choice to run to obedience. As a people we take for granted that God is going to have mercy on man because we say we love Him. Think again! God will be harder on us that say we are Christians but don’t obey. To him that knows to do good and don’t do it; it is sin. Jude 3, beloved when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith; which was once delivered unto the Saints. Jude also in verse 11, woe unto them, for they have gone the way of Cain and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward and perished in the gain saying of Core.

The Church in America has been warned over and over again that they were jeopardizing the Church of Jesus Christ. They started out with God and left their sin. Now they will lie, steal, kill, covet, commit adultery, and put God on the back burner of life. Hip hop, fast cash, fancy cars, airplanes, buying lovers homes, keeping two and three families, and every damnable spirit from hell has been portrayed in the Church that have named the name of Christ. It’s time to awake out of sleep old sluggards. It’s time we save ourselves and the world around us. It’s time to put on the full armor of God. Ephesians 6:10-11 finally my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God; that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. We are in spiritual warfare like never before. My brother and sister we are leading men and women and children that Christ came to die for straight to the pits of hell. What are we doing? Wake up we are not wrestling against flesh and blood but against the powers of darkness, principalities, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. We are no match for Satan, but God is and we have to give our all that God will spare us.

We have to equip ourselves with the armor God has given us and not what we think we need. He said we are to be a strong soldier in the Lord. Putting on the whole armor means we girt our loins about with truth. We have a breastplate of righteousness and we need to put it on. Not the world’s righteousness either but God. Our feet must be shod with the gospel of peace. Of course we don’t want to put on the helmet of salvation, it protects our head. So many Christians has gotten their heads bad with a watered down gospel and they don’t know if they are coming or going. The reason we don’t know is because we will not pick up our Bibles and read our Word every day when it is our sword of the Spirit. The last is predicated upon how much Word we have ingested before we go to Church. We are to always pray with prayer and supplication.

Our salvation is called in account today. If God would come today where will we be found? We should pray for deliverance as David did in Psalm 54:1-3 save me, O God, by thy name; and judge me by thy strength. Hear my prayer, O God give ear to the words of my mouth. For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul; they have not set God before them. We need to pray to God that He save us over every day that we continually fight the demon within; our own self ways and motives. We are our worst enemy. We want to be used by God so we must deny ourselves all matter in the earth that will pull us away from our witness. The things we know and don’t know of must be repented of and not just with words but of a true repentant heart. We want God to hear our prayers but he can’t because of things that go un-repented of. We don’t have the knowledge to save ourselves.
We want God to lend an ear to hear us but we won’t hear what He is saying to us. Our thoughts, ways, and words often time is a reproach to God. We need to repent. We worry about who is against us more than we worry about who is for us. We put the oppressors before God. We leave love, faith, and trust on the back burner of the stove in our kitchens when we face our day. We claim everyone is against us but we ourselves are the problem to our self.

The decisions we make in life will affect our walk in a good way or bad way. We are saved by grace but are we a witness that God’s grace is for everyone? Are the weights we judge by those in our own mind or the mind of Christ? We wish that everyone was wise that they could understand us but what about us understanding God’s Word and His Spirit. Have we or do we consider our latter end. All that we do is to done to the glory and honor of God and if something we do does not bring glory to God than we need to repent. If we act and react in a wrong way we need to repent. Many have been judged because they cause hurt or pain to another, especially of the household of faith and never repent of it. This is pride and a boastful lying sprit has taken root. The sad part is we think we have gotten rid of that lying demon, but he is still alive and full blown AIDS in our system. We need to repent! Where is our fear of God? The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding of who God is in our lives determines how well we keep His Commandments. God say Can I Find A Witness, Is There Any?
