Shout It From the Rooftops!

"O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard" (Psalm 66:8)

Now is NOT the time to be silent, but rather now IS the time to join our testimony with Paul's in saying, "I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ"!  What better way to bless God than to openly proclaim His praise throughout the earth!

Have you noticed that Christians are becoming more outspoken?  Many are indeed feeling the "call" to proclaim it to the nations that Jesus Christ is Lord . . . the SOON-COMING LORD!  There is no time to waste. We are definitely living in the "harvest season"!  All the signs point to it!

The division between the "wheat" and the "tares" is becoming more and more obvious by the day.  Those who would "fool around" with the Lord and their pretense as a Christian are being found out!  Those who are living fruitful Christian lives are ALSO being found out.  The only difference is those who are truly living for Christ are shouting it from the rooftops . . . Jesus is Coming Soon -- Get Ready!

What is the proclamation from your lips . . . are you openly sharing Jesus with all you come in contact with, or are you ashamed . . . or, are you not convinced yourself that "the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God . . . " (1 Thessalonians 4:16)

Bless the Lord today . . . share of His soon return.  Stand up boldly for righteousness and don't allow the enemy to rob God of being blessed by you through the sinister tools of intimidation and fear!  Make the voice of His praise to be heard . . . by all!

Father, forgive me for the many times I missed the opportunity to share the life-giving power of the shed blood of Jesus to those with whom I come in contact!  Father, my desire is for You to be blessed through me and by me as I make the voice of Your praise to be heard . . . by all! Lord, I love You and want to walk uprightly before you, being obedient to Your Word . . . "Go and tell the world" that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of the Father, fulfilling the Great Commission to be witnesses unto the uttermost part of the earth!  Be glorified, Lord, today and every day! Amen!

"Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee." (Isaiah 12:6)
