Text: Jude 3-11
In 2018, we’ve probably all had distractions. . .things that kept us from reading the Bible and praying. In 2019, we need to contend. . .to start fighting and go after the things of God. We have to fight the enemy aggressively. He wants to kill, steal, and destroy. We have to fight for our children and our marriages. We must stand up for the TRUTH and fight for what we believe in. We’ve become lazy when it comes to Christianity. We’ve been sleeping while the enemy has crept in sowing seeds of distruction. We’ve accepted things that shouldn’t have been accepted. It’s time to start fighting and take a stand for TRUTH! We are getting further away from the truth of the Gospel, the Diety of Christ, the work of the cross, and the need of a Savior. When grace is trampled on and Jesus is denied, God says , “I know what you’re doing. You are doing nothing that I’m not aware of.” God calls judgement against the apostates. In 2019, let our resolution be to be better Christians. Let’s stand out and not blend in. Satan isn’t playing. Now is the time to get rooted and grounded in the Word!
