I have heard several times how blessed we are to have freedom of religion and assembly in the U.S. I think the sad, but more accurate truth is that we have freedom in the United States to be lukewarm.
Where is the persecution Jesus promised?
It could be freedom and grace granted by God or it could be Satan has you solidly in his grip.
Do you follow the Ten Commandments? Is the law even preached in your church?
Satan is content to let you be lukewarm.
Don’t be satisfied with it yourself.
I have gotten tired of churches praying for first responders. Perhaps there is a tinge of jealousy present. Yet, I tend to think prayers and blessings should be reserved as precious. If I don’t know you, I’m not sure I should spend a prayer on you. And I’m definitely not going to bless anyone for a sneeze.
For years I have heard how we are blessed to have the right to assembly and freedom of religion.
This is what I have to say to preachers or churches that have closed their doors during this pandemic:
First responders understand DUTY, why don’t you? So, I reiterate all those years of prayers, God Bless first responders, health workers, police, grocery workers, food workers, supply line workers, and those churches which stayed open!
