Stop Being the Laodicean Church!
This was a spontaneous song, sung at one of our services.
“I AM calling for My first love.
The ones who love Me, the ones who love Me dearly.
Move every obstacle out of your way, move everything that hinders out of your gaze.
I AM calling for My first love.
Those who love Me come again, come again.
Come again, come again, move everything out of your way, move everything that hinders your steps.
Come again, come again.
I AM the same I change not, I AM the same I change not.
If something has happened in our relationship, I change not.
If something is going on in our relationship, I change not.
Come again, come again and love Me.
Come again, come again and obey Me.
Come again, come again and hear Me.
Come again, come again and love Me.”
“My love, stop being the Laodicean Church. Wake up, wake up from your slumber, and realize that I AM coming for a Church without spot, wrinkle or blemish, and the only way this an be accomplished is to stay under the purging, purifying cleansing of My Word and My presence.
There you can be washed at all times, white as snow, but you must have a hunger, a desire, and a thirst.
If the things of this world have captured your attention and taken away that hunger, desire, and that passion and thirst, you must come back to your first love.
If there is anything that has entered in and sat on the throne of your heart, and stolen your attention, where it has more affection than Me, it has become the idol of your life, and of your heart.
I say come again, come back to Me, your first love. I have never changed. I never alter who I AM, I remain the same, consistent God, every promise that I give you is yes and Amen.
All I ask is for you to pursue Me patiently and watch and see that I keep My Word. I AM not like anyone else you know, I cannot lie, I will not fail, I will not falter, I will not change or alter the plans that I have for you.
Ever since the foundation of the world, I knew you and I knew the plan that I had for you, and it has never changed for Me, it has remained consistent, it is always for good.
Yet, in the midst of the good that I AM bringing forth, there are circumstances, situations, trials and tests that you must walk through in order to cause yourself to be hardened to the difficult and trying things of this world, while remaining tender to Me.
I AM ordering all things on your behalf. I require that you keep your eyes fixed and your gaze fixed upon Me, and continue to cry out until you awake in My likeness.
Just because you have not seen what you have asked for, you have doubted My faithfulness, but I change not.
So if there is any changes that have gone on, it has not come from Me,” says The LORD, “I change not. I will do exactly what I said I would do.
I AM God, the faithful. I AM. I AM the firm and stable God, and I AM consistent. Keep My Word and stay consistent as well. I will come for all who are faithful.”
“So that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the Word, that He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such things [that she might be holy and faultless].” Ephesians 5:26-27.
“For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.” 2 Corinthians 1:20-22.
“And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:14-16.
