Burn as an Oven
Malachi 4:1-3 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts.
God tells us clearly what will happen to those who have rejected him. They will be as stubble and they will be burned up. Stubble is the short, stiff stalks of grain or hay remaining on a field after harvesting. Since the wicked will remain as stubble, that means a harvest will have to come first. So, what is the harvest?
The harvest is the gathering of the Christian (or saved) people before that day happens. The Sun of righteousness (Jesus) will come and heal us of any and all infirmities we may have. He will gather us up and keep us safe. He will harvest us and take us away from the burning and heat that is coming. And after it is over, the wicked will be ashes.
If you have never accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior – as payment for all of your sins – do not delay. Accept him today. Confess your sins. Tell God you accept His Son Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Ask Jesus to cleanse you and to save you. He is waiting for you to ask. Ask sincerely – be honest with God because he knows your heart.
Do not be caught without Jesus’ protection on that day spoken about in Malachi 4. Be ready. No person knows the day or time. We are to be ready at all times, every day. Do it now – right this minute.

Be Still and Know He is God
Psalm 46:10
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
There are times when God expects us to just be still and wait on Him. Be still and know that God is God and He will take care of you. Be still and listen for the voice of God. Sometimes we have to be still in order to hear Him because there are times when He speaks in a still small voice. He tells us that in the Bible when He was speaking to Elijah. (I suggest you read the whole 19th chapter of 1 Kings – or even that whole story to get the full details of what happened before this point.)
1 Kings 19:11-12 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
If you are having problems hearing the Lord, maybe it is your time to be still and know that He is God!

Be Careful False Visions
Jeremiah 14:14
Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
It is good to have a vision for your life – to have some idea of where you are headed whether in business or everyday life. We do have to stay alert though and test the spirits to know whether our visions are false.
If you get a vision, pray about it. Ask God to reveal to you whether this is a true vision sent from him, or is it a false vision. False visions will always lead you away from God. True visions will lead you closer to God.
There are many false prophets out there who say that they receive visions in God’s name and it is just not true. Never take one person’s word about such things. Always test the spirits. If you read the Bible, you will see that usually whenever God’s people received a vision, it was always reinforced by it being shown twice and sometimes three times.

Reincarnation is a Myth
by Linda Sedrick Pearson
Reincarnation is a myth. It is a lie of Satan. If we do not get it (our lives) right this time around, there will not be a second time.
Hebrews 9:27-28 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
When a person dies there is no coming back to try it over again. The Bible says, “Once to die.” One time only – you live your life – then you die. Then, you face the judgment. What judgement? God’s judgement.
That is why Jesus Christ gave his life for us. He knew we only had one chance to get it right and that we could not get it right on our own. Salvation and the saving grace from God’s judgment is Jesus Christ.
Accept Him or Reject Him! It is your choice.
