I Am Lord
Shared by Patricia Backora, author of the book
Tough Love in Christ's Millennium
Which you can order online from: http://www.publishamerica.com


I am treated like a constitutional Monarch by lukewarm believers who are keen on their own watered-down interpretations of My Word. A believer can choose to shut his ears against My clear instructions, pretending not to hear Me at all. He’ll decide for himself the limits of My jurisdiction over his life. Such a headstrong individual wants My Kingdom to be a democracy, rather than a theocracy under My Lordship.

Some saints who once were on fire for Me and My Word grow so cold they limit Me to being a divine figurehead they pray to on occasion for help. Otherwise, they tell Me in so many ways to mind My own business and let them live THEIR lives as they see fit, forgetting that I have purchased them with My own redeeming blood. And there are those who treat me like their own personal butler, where they call Me when they need Me to do something to make their lives easier. Once I have served them, they give Me cursory thanks at best, dismiss Me by tuning Me out like a TV, then get back to earthly concerns. Such careless believers treat Me as if I’m part of the furniture. Never, Never, never lose your sense of awe and reverence toward Me, or divine chastisement might result to straighten out your flawed concept of just Who I Am. I Am the One Who sits upon the Throne of Heaven, Who rules over all creation, and Who calls you to be My servants as well as My sons. Never lose sight of the fact it is an unspeakable privilege that I treat you also as My friend, that I go so far as to share the secrets of My very own heart with you. That ought to incite deep thankfulness, as well as exuberant joy in your heart. Treat Me as your choicest Treasure, the most unspeakably wondrous Blessing in your life, ever approaching Me through the Blood of My dear Son Jesus, because I am Holy, Holy, Holy in every aspect of My triune Nature.

I must be the One and only Captain of your ship. Otherwise, your life is headed for certain shipwreck.

The passion and descriptive prose in this article had me searching my own heart, to see if I am guilty of applying some of these shameful descriptions to my Lord`s Person...."Lord forgive us when we do not give you the honour and glory that You deserve, and create in us pure hearts and clean hands, that we may serve and glorify You in word, thought and deed". Amen.

Once again a word to challenge our hearts, transmitted through this faithful child of God.
