Maranatha Jesus returns
PREACHED ONT 25th FEBRUARY 2021:
RAFFAELLA PULITO
“Maranatha - Jesus returns”
At this moment the enemy knows that he has little time for Jesus to return and is therefore trying to seduce.
People don't believe Jesus is returning, they don't believe He came, and they don't even believe in the second coming.
The prophetic church enters into God's purpose.
Matthew 7:24-27
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”.
He who obeys builds his house on the rock; the rock is Christ. Even if shaking will come, he who has built on the rock will remain stable. God wants to take everyone to another level. He has a wonderful purpose in every area of every person's life.
Matteo 25:1-5
“At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
It is necessary to have an intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit. This is the time for holy decisions. We must work and agree with the Word of God.
Abacuc 2:3
"For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay".
A holy fear is coming upon the church. When the Word speaks of "knowing", it speaks of intimacy, of a genuine intimacy with our Father.
PSalms 119.105
Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.
There is a precious deposit in every child of God.
2 Timothy 1:14
Guard the good deposit that was entrusted to you—guard it with the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us.
This deposit is called the "Revelation of the Word". We must guard it, not despise it, is the deposit that God has poured into us. God is calling everyone to preach His Word but without the Holy Spirit it will not be possible to act. All that is happening is for a time but His presence will always remain. Inside every human being God has placed the thought of eternity.
If eternity is within everyone, everyone can live eternity together with him or away from him. If you resist the Word, you don't allow it to descend into our hearts.
2 Corinthians 3:3
You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
Essere santo non significa essere perfetti ma questo non deve fare un libero arbitrio per peccare.
Proverbs 8:13
To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, levil behavior and perverse speech.
Doing God's will...will cost! There will be persecutions but the victory is great.
Ephesians 5:27
and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.Bisogna chiamare il peccato per nome, perché Dio un giorno renderà conto ad ognono di quello che si è fatto sulla terra.
The Word of God teaches us to not have fear.
1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
