Compel Them To Return! Isaiah 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. The word in my spirit this morning is return. We all have someone we know who was in the Lord and have gone astray. For many of us there was a time in our own lives that we may have strayed from the Lord, turned our heads to the things of this world and began to live lives that were not holy unto God. I for one have been one who had done just that. We have many that are playing both sides of the fence and God the Father is calling them to ...., chose you this day whom ye will serve.... (see Joshua 9:27). You see there are many gods in this world and there are many people running after the gods of this world worshipping them and sacrificing to them and obeying them. We who carry the light of Jesus within us must take a stand and ask the question Who Will You Serve? You see children of God, those in the world are very bold about what they do and how they do what they do. We must ask the Lord to endow us with Holy Ghost Boldness. We are too quiet, we are too mealy mouthed, we are not Crying Loud and Sparing Not! For many of us our mouths are closed and we shake our heads at sin but not call sin what it is: SIN. We have love ones that we will not say to, look, what you are doing is sin we say that we are giving them time and they will come to the Lord when they are ready. This is not biblical people of God. There is nothing in the word that tells us to wait for people to come into the kingdom of God that they will come to the Lord when they are ready to. What the Word of God tells us Children of God is GO. Matthew 22:9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid them to the marriage. Luke 14:23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. Do you see that?? There is nothing there about wait. 2 Corinthians 6:2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.). Now means at this very moment. The day of salvation is NOW people of God and it is NOW more than ever. It is time for those that have gone astray to come back, to return to the Lord with all their heart and with all their mind and with all their strength. We do not want any to be caught out in the rain that is coming. We need them to come into the Ark and begin bringing others into the ark of safety (Jesus). So where do we begin. We begin with self forsake every sin and GO snatch souls from the gates of hell. Hell is real and not a place one can escape from once they leave this life and step into eternity. There is no in between place, either we have given our lives to Christ and turned from our wicked ways and when we leave this life we step into eternal life to be with the Lord or we live a life of fulfilling the lust of our eyes and the lust of our flesh and the pride of life and when we leave this life we step into eternity of damnation. James 4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. Ah, but if we return to the Lord confess and forsake our sin He will have mercy and He will abundantly pardon. Go Fish! Father I thank you for this day. I thank and praise you Father God for your goodness and your mercy and your grace on all of our lives. We deserve nothing Lord, so I thank you Father for your favor and your love and your care for our lives. There is nothing that we can do to deserve all the blessings that you bestow on us, so I thank you Father God for your unmerited favor on all of our lives. Father I am truly so grateful to you for everything that you have done for me. I have to say it the way mommy would say it You didnt have to do it but, you did and for all that you have done I say, thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you Father God, Father you are so good and you are so great and you are so wonderful and I am so grateful to you Lord for my life, my health and my strength. I thank you Father God for health and healing, I thank you Father God for peace and mercy, I thank you Father God for the love and kindness that you pour out on my life and the lives of all my love ones. I thank you Father for being our strong tower, you are our protection our shield, you fight for us cutting down the adversary that would try to rise up against us and I say thank you Father, thank you Father, thank you Father God! Lord I ask today that you would give to me more boldness, more Holy Ghost boldness to Go and snatch souls from the gates of hell, to Go and bring those that have gone astray back into the fold, to Go and cry loud and spare not. Give me the boldness to call sin exactly what it is SIN I will not be complacent with sin. I will not give place to sin. I will not compromise with sin. I will not accept sin. I will call sin, sin, and I will hate sin just like you hate sin Father God. Give me determination to compel souls to come into your kingdom Father, I will be about your business, (I will be about my Fathers business!). Lord I thank you and praise you and exalt you and lift you up. I glorify you and honor you and I love you Lord, I love you. Bless your great and holy name this day. Lead and guide my footsteps Father and keep me on the right pathway, blessing and honor and glory and power to you forever and ever. In Jesus name I pray. Amen
