Who Me? A Zealot?

 

“If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his Father's glory with the holy angels."Mark 8:38

The definition of a zealot is a person who is fanatical and uncompromising in pursuit of their religious, political, or other ideals. Now if you are passionate about the things of Christ without compromise I guess that would be a fanatic and I once heard a fanatic is someone who loved Jesus more than you do. Nothing to be ashamed of if you have had that label put on you but instead you are loving God and perhaps making others squirm or be convicted. 

It is the Holy Spirit that convicts of sin and of unrighteous. The world today is confused and God is not the author of confusion. Sin is sugar coated signed into law and made to look normal. Lifestyle choices abound and if it doesn’t concern you those involved want you to bug out. 

It is sad that the god of this world Satan won’t let up in his battle to confuse others that he knows more than God by twisting scripture and justifying sin. If you are praying for breakthrough for someone don’t become discouraged by a bump in the road or a hiccup. God has not abandoned you or the person who you are praying for. 

PRAYER: Heavenly Father prayer is my lifeline and so many lost souls are afraid to pray or don’t know how. Or false teachers come in and mess with people. Lord Jesus help me never give up on my journey of prayer and break Satan’s lies and deception which often seem okay to those affected. I choose to run hard after you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
