We are truly living in unprecedented times and the possibility of war just reached a new height. Saints, we have an appointment with the King of Kings! Let's live ready!
Matthew 24:42-44 AMP
[42] “So be alert [give strict attention, be cautious and active in faith], for you do not know which day [whether near or far] your Lord is coming. [43] But understand this: If the head of the house had known what time of the night the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert and would not have allowed his house to be broken into. [44] Therefore, you [who follow Me] must also be ready; because the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not expect Him.

In Matthew 13:44, the treasure was hidden under dirt. To get to the treasure, you must get the dirt off. Our lives inside are full of dirt and things that need to be cleansed, but underneath that dirt is the hidden treasure. That treasure is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
When we can see the treasure, our hunger and thirst for the righteousness of Christ compel us to sell everything and cast out anything that could hide that treasure. You might not be able to see the treasure yet. It's not open, not visible, but remember, the promise of God to you is: "The one who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat with My Father on His throne" (Rev. 3:21).

1 Peter 4:2-5 TPT
So live the rest of your earthly life no longer concerned with human desires but consumed with what brings pleasure to God. [3] For you have already spent enough time doing what unbelievers love to do—living in debauchery, sensuality, partying, drunkenness, wild drinking parties, and the worship of demons. [4] They marvel that you no longer rush to join them in the excesses of their corrupt lifestyles, and so they vilify you. [5] But one day they will have to give an account to the one who is destined to judge the living and the dead.

1 Peter 3:8-12 TPT
[8] Now, this is the goal: to live in harmony with one another and demonstrate affectionate love, sympathy, and kindness toward other believers. Let humility describe who you are as you dearly love one another. [9] Never retaliate when someone treats you wrongly, nor insult those who insult you, but instead, respond by speaking a blessing over them—because a blessing is what God promised to give you. [10] For the Scriptures tell us: Whoever wants to embrace true life and find beauty in each day [11] must stop speaking evil, hurtful words and never deceive in what they say. Always turn from what is wrong and cultivate what is good; eagerly pursue peace in every relationship, making it your prize. [12] For the eyes of the Lord Yahweh rest upon the godly, and his heart responds to their prayers. But he turns his back on those who practice evil.

Mishlei (Pro) 4:23-27 CJB - Christian Jewish Bible
Above everything else, guard your heart; for it is the source of life’s consequences. [24] Keep crooked speech out of your mouth, banish deceit from your lips. [25] Let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze on what lies in front of you. [26] Level the path for your feet, let all your ways be properly prepared; [27] then deviate neither right nor left; and keep your foot far from evil.

John 15:13 – “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”
Jesus sets the standard for ultimate love—sacrificial love.
This passage highlights the depth of Christ’s love for humanity, demonstrated by His death on the cross. It calls us to love selflessly, prioritizing others’ well-being above our own. True love often requires sacrifice, reflecting the heart of Christ.

"If you take situations or people for granted, you do not realize or show that you are grateful for how much you get from them."
1 Peter 4:7-11 MSG
[7-11] Everything in the world is about to be wrapped up, so take nothing for granted. Stay wide-awake in prayer. Most of all, love each other as if your life depended on it. Love makes up for practically anything. Be quick to give a meal to the hungry, a bed to the homeless—cheerfully. Be generous with the different things God gave you, passing them around so all get in on it: if words, let it be God’s words; if help, let it be God’s hearty help. That way, God’s bright presence will be evident in everything through Jesus, and he’ll get all the credit as the One mighty in everything—encores to the end of time. Oh, yes!

“My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children” (Hosea 4:6).
While it’s been thousands of years since this book was written, Hosea’s warning still applies to us today. Instead of reading and adhering to God’s word, the Bible, we listen to other teachers—some of whom might be false. We don’t read His word for ourselves but instead rely on pastors and others to tell us what is the truth.
Or perhaps worse, we hear the Word but decide to heed our own will, comfort, and desires rather than what God wants. We know He wants us to follow His ways, but instead we cave to the whims of the flesh and engage in immorality or other sinful behavior. We let the devil get a foothold (Ephesians 4:27), and the slippery slope to sin begins.
Today, we can see this as a call to action, to morality, to wisdom, and to obedience. We must remember the words of Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
In conclusion, we can learn a lot about the warnings God gives His people in Hosea 4:6. May we remember to obey God and accept His knowledge in spite of what others say or what we prefer to do.
As Jesus told the people, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (John 8:12).

Jesus' walk was neither painless nor effortless, and yours will not be either. Perhaps our minds cannot envision the Son of God facing any "real problems," such as we face.
When we consider the Son of God, we should not isolate Him from the extreme spiritual warfare He faced on many occasions, even to the point of sweating blood. We are assured that Christ never failed, but neither was He aloof from temptations. Rather, the Bible tells us that Jesus was "tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin" (Heb. 4:15). Remember also, Jesus faced and conquered His battles as a man; He had to pray for strength, and trust His Father for justice on the cross, even when He felt forsaken by all.
If we imagine that Jesus was without temptation or that He never had inner conflicts, such thinking blinds us from seeing the reality of what we all must go through at times. We think God is failing us when, in fact, He is actually conforming us to the real Jesus. Yes, in the crucible of conflict, Jesus chose to do God's will. "Deeply grieved, to the point of death" (Matt 26:38), He prayed the prayer of surrender: "not My will, but Thine be done" (Luke 22:42).
When Jesus said, “Not my will, but yours be done,” He surrendered His own will to God’s, fully convinced that His Father knew what was best. When we pray this way, we yield ourselves to God’s wisdom, trusting Him to work out what’s best for our lives, too (Romans 8:28).

Revelation 1:7-8, 17-18 AMP
[7] Behold, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him; and all the tribes (nations) of the earth will mourn over Him [realizing their sin and guilt, and anticipating the coming wrath]. So it is to be. Amen. [8] “I am the Alpha and the Omega [the Beginning and the End],” says the Lord God, “Who is [existing forever] and Who was [continually existing in the past] and Who is to come, the Almighty [the Omnipotent, the Ruler of all].”
[17] When I saw Him, I fell at His feet as though dead. And He placed His right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last [absolute Deity, the Son of God], [18] and the Ever-living One [living in and beyond all time and space]. I died, but see, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of [absolute control and victory over] death and of Hades (the realm of the dead).

Probably one of the most important aspects of being a citizen of God’s kingdom is that you must surrender to his purpose.
Surrender to God’s lordship means surrender to his will and his agenda. Undoubtedly, this has become a struggle for many people because we have become confused as to what God’s agenda is. We have mixed it with religious dogma and our own selfish motives or other ideas that don’t come from God’s word.
If you want to know God’s agenda, you must return to the constitution, which is the Bible, and study the words and life of Jesus.
God’s agenda for you. Preaching. Teaching. Praying. Obeying.
Preaching is to get the message of the gospel out.
Teaching is to make disciples.
Praying is to build your relationship with the King, or Your Heavenly Father.
Obeying is to shine light and point other people to Him.
Generally speaking, this is what kingdom citizens should be doing. These four things are at the heart of God’s purpose and agenda in the earth. Anything else and we get sidetracked into other areas that have nothing to do with the kingdom of God.
If you are a citizen of God’s kingdom, you should be sharing the gospel, making disciples, praying and doing what God asks you to do. You do these things not because you want to accomplish your will in the earth, but because you want to accomplish God’s will in the earth, which should be the desire of every kingdom citizen.

“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” (Isaiah 41:10)
Have you ever felt overwhelmed? We all feel overwhelmed at times. Sometimes it is a result of taking on too much work or responsibility; other times it is caused by things we cannot control, like physical illness or emotional trauma. Sometimes we can feel overwhelmed when everything is normal and we don’t see any reason for feeling that way. Even things we enjoy can leave us feeling overwhelmed if there is too much to do. We face daily pressures from jobs or school, from friends and family, and from temptations to sin. These can pile up and seem completely unmanageable. Fortunately, the Bible speaks to us about feeling overwhelmed.
“From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy” (Psalm 61:2–3, KJV).
When we are feeling overwhelmed, it may also help to remove ourselves from the situation, if possible. We may need to decrease our workload, knowing that it is not sinful to let go of some responsibilities for a while. In any case, we continue to rely on God’s strength and pray for peace, knowing that He has promised to help us. “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea” (Psalm 46:1–2).

As we celebrate Dr. Kings legacy let us be mindful of the ultimate price he paid for the benefit of the black community and not squander the opportunities that are now before us. The word "Sacrifice" comes to mind when I think of leaders such as Dr. King.
The Biblical meaning of sacrifice delves into the essence of selflessness, obedience, and faith demonstrated by those who offered their most precious possessions or even their own lives in service to the Creator. The Bible reminds us in Ephesians 5:2 “And walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God“
Through sacrifice, we reflect the divine love that redeems and sanctifies, embodying the ultimate sacrifice made by Jesus Christ on the cross.
Sacrifice is a concept deeply rooted in the Bible, symbolizing the act of giving up something valuable for a higher purpose or to honor God. Throughout the Scriptures, sacrifice is portrayed as an essential aspect of faith and devotion to the Almighty.
Sacrifice requires surrendering our will, desires, and comforts to align with God’s purposes and glorify His name.
Shalom

[1] Jesus said to His disciples, “Stumbling blocks [temptations and traps set to lure one to sin] are sure to come, but woe (judgment is coming) to him through whom they come! [2] It would be better for him if a millstone [as large as one turned by a donkey] were hung around his neck and he were hurled into the sea, than for him to cause one of these little ones to stumble [in sin and lose faith]. [3] Pay attention and always be on guard [looking out for one another]! If your brother sins and disregards God’s precepts, solemnly warn him; and if he repents and changes, forgive him. [4] Even if he sins against you seven times a day, and returns to you seven times and says, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him [that is, give up resentment and consider the offense recalled and annulled].”

[13] I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End [the Eternal One].” [14] Blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired) are those who wash their robes [in the blood of Christ by believing and trusting in Him—the righteous who do His commandments], so that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city. [15] Outside are the dogs [the godless, the impure, those of low moral character] and the sorcerers [with their intoxicating drugs, and magic arts], and the immoral persons [the perverted, the molesters, and the adulterers], and the murderers, and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying (deception, cheating).

[1] Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away (vanished), and there is no longer any sea. [2] And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, arrayed like a bride adorned for her husband; [3] and then I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “See! The tabernacle of God is among men, and He will live among them, and they will be His people, and God Himself will be with them [as their God,] [4] and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be death; there will no longer be sorrow and anguish, or crying, or pain; for the former order of things has passed away.”

What I think of when I hear people say "don't judge me".
Revelation 20:11-15 AMP
[11] And I saw a great white throne and Him who was seated upon it, from whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found for them [for this heaven and earth are passing away]. [12] And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the Book of Life; and the dead were judged according to what they had done as written in the books [that is, everything done while on earth]. [13] And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and death and Hades (the realm of the dead) surrendered the dead who were in them; and they were judged and sentenced, every one according to their deeds. [14] Then death and Hades [the realm of the dead] were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire [the eternal separation from God]. [15] And if anyone’s name was not found written in the Book of Life, he was hurled into the lake of fire.
