But
Since You Are Like Lukewarm Water,
Neither
Hot Nor Cold,
I
Will Spit You Out Of My Mouth!
Scripture
Revelation
3
15 “I know
all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that
you were one or the other!
20 “Look!
I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the
door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.
Observation
As
you and I read the Bible we come across plenty of warnings about how
not to live. Ezekiel and Revelation both give us plenty of warnings!
When
I read Ezekiel and Revelation and especially Revelation 3:15-16 I
take them as a warning that I am not to live the Christian life in a
halfway fashion.
This
passage is telling me, that Eddy can't straddle the fence, trying to
be in the world and also trying to live the Christian life. No, God
wants me sold out to Him 100%! Oh … and … He wants 100% of you
too!
I
love Revelation 3:20 because it shows me that Jesus wants me to open
up my heart to Him and He desires to have an intimate relationship
with me.
Application
He
wants to fellowship with me as my best friend. And He can't do that
if I am going to settle for being a lukewarm Christian!
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, thank You for helping me yesterday. When I prayed You heard
my prayer and You answered me. Thank You for helping me. As I read
Ezekiel and Revelation it is obvious to me that You want me to walk
close to You. You don't want me to settle for anything less than You.
Nothing in this world can meet the deep needs of my life as You can.
Don't let me settle for less. Don't let me live my life in a halfway,
lukewarm fashion. I want to always be 100% sold out to You.
This
is also my prayer for any person that may read this blog today. Help
them to be 100% committed to You!
