My friends this is where we are today after 225 years two very distinct thanksgiving Day proclamation’s, 1779, and 2013. But  there should be no doubt in anyone’s mind as you focus on the distinction that God has decayed considerable in our world, and also in the minds of most individuals.

For “the love of many has grown cold” as we enter the threshold of our Saviors return. As a Child of God we must recognize the decline of the knowledge of God all around us and tell yourself that God is not leaving this world, but the world is leaving God.

But you must also tell yourself that the God we serve also tells us “all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet” THANK GOD FOR GRACE.  Paul tells us in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 “But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, LOVERS OF PLEASURE RATHER THAN LOVERS OF GOD, HAVING THE APPEARANCE OF GODLINESS, BUT DENYING ITS POWER…”

But once again “all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet” THANK GOD FOR GRACE. My friends we are on the borders of the promise land, and knowing God is not a criteria in today’s society therefore there is a lack of the knowledge of God, and the transforming power of His Word and Spirit.

The knowledge of God is almost extinct, so to proclaim the name of God is taboo, especially when you see the Presidents of the greatest country in the world we live not even mention God once in His Thanksgiving Day Proclamation. 

But again “all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet” THANK GOD FOR GRACE. The world has demoted God’s precepts to the point where sin is not sin, if it is a “SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE SIN”  fornication ACCEPTABLE, cheating on your income tax ACCEPTABLE, knowingly buying stolen goods ACCEPTABLE, homosexuality ACCEPTABLE, TV, TV, and more TV ACCEPTABLE.

My friends you get the picture but “the wages of sin is still death, but only God can give the free gift of eternal life” So THANK GOD FOR GRACE. Now let’s take a few minutes and focus on the meaning of Thanksgiving, and once you have done that I pray you will never let another day go by without FALLING ON YOUR KNEES IN DEEP REPENTANCE AND HUMILIATION  as say THANK YOU GOD, telling Him  if it were not FOR YOUR GRACE  “I can tell you where Id be, Wandering down some pointless road to nowhere With my salvation up to me.”

So As Children of God it is our responsibility to MAKE OUR OWN PROCLAMATION as you allow God’s Spirit to lead you into spreading  the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ to a world, that is gradually RUNNING OUT OF GOD’S GRACE, Please tell everyone about the free gift of Salvation and that their is still hope, and that God’s blood was shed for all, and that God’s Word is adequate enough through His Spirit to guide all who has the desire, safely to a place “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9 HAPPY THANKSGIVING MY FRIENDS. AND THANK GOD FOR GRACE. 

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
