My heart and spirit hurt every time I reflect on the senseless and evil taking of innocent lives in Uvalde, Texas. The cause is not guns, mental health, or lack of police action, as those on the liberal band wagon are saying. The problem entered the world due to rebellion (sin – Genesis 3) against God the Creator.
Man is innately sinful, and the evidence is all about us. The hearts and minds of mankind cannot be changed by laws, gun control, or politicians. Only by coming humbly to the cross of Jesus will hearts be changed. (Romans5:8) The problem is spiritual, and the world is wicked. (Jeremiah 17:9) We live in a world that has turned its back on Almighty God. America has thumbed her nose at God and judgement awaits. (Hebrews 9:27)
The problem lies at the foot of most pulpits and at the door of most churches. Only the Word of God, empowered by the Holy Spirit, will alter the course of a sin-sick nation and anemic church. God help us to be unashamed of the Gospel. (Romans 1:16) May we preach the whole counsel of God (Acts 20:20), for the Glory of God, the salvation of the lost (Acts 4:12), and sanctification of the saints. (John 17:17)
“Lord Jesus, for your name’s sake, would you revive Your church once again?”
May we come to the Lord Jesus in humility, yet with expectation of His presence as we assemble to worship and walk with Him day by day. (Ephesians 4:1)
