Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. (1 Pet. 1:13)
Preface
First I would like to emphasize just how important our thoughts are because they are heard in the holy place that resides within our human temples. (1 Cor. 3:16) And from there the Lord hears our thoughts and the Sheep hear His Voice. This is evident to some extent in Bible verses which disclose that Jesus divinely knew the thoughts of those around Him. (Mat. 9:4; Mat.12:25) Often I will be thinking about something when suddenly a Word of Knowledge is spoken in direct response to the thought or a vision might be shown. (Is.65:24; Jn. 16:13) A sobering but also a comforting thought to think that our thoughts are heard isn’t it? That having been said, here follows an important message for the Church around the world.
Words of Knowledge – It’s The Cross Again
While thinking about some push back recently experienced on the topic of the Cross which is keeping our faith and trust anchored in our Lord and in His finished works (a recurring topic in recent days on the blog) the following Words of Knowledge were spoken: Hold On. Embrace It. Crucial.
These Words of Knowledge apply not only to me but to all faithful Believers! We are called to continue to hold on to this doctrinal truth and embrace it in all its facets and aspects regardless of adversarial opposition. The Word Crucial was especially interesting considering that English is not my maternal nor paternal language. A quick search on the etymology of the word yielded a surprising result because it is a word that relates to, yes again, the Cross. Coincidence? Not when considering that the old and new English vocabulary contains over one million words!
Crucial: Decisive or critical, especially in the success or failure of something, Of great importance.
Early 18th century (in the sense ‘cross-shaped’): from French, from Latin crux, cruc- ‘cross’. The sense ‘decisive’ is from Francis Bacon’s Latin phrase instantia crucis ‘crucial instance’, which he explained as a metaphor from a crux or fingerpost marking a fork at a crossroad; Newton and Boyle took up the metaphor in experimentum crucis ‘crucial experiment’.

Urgency of the Times
Time as we know it on earth is running. Many lose their lives daily and many more will with the unfolding of prophetic events. And with it the call to reach lost souls is intensifying. The call to return to GOD in repentance, in the name of and in the finished works of Jesus Christ is critical to salvation and it is a crucial message for the days we are living in….regardless of push backs.
For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ. (Phil 3:18)
Keep on keeping on with your walk of faith and with the mission that has been entrusted to you knowing that the Lord is with you! And know that it will bless you and it will bless others. Praise be to GOD the FATHER and thank you Lord, God, Saviour and Creator, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Keep the Faith, Suzanne ♥ ✝
(I am hearing a Word of Confirmation.)
Thanks, again, Suzanne. God bless!
Oh, the cesspool of thoughs that God must wade through every 24 hrs., so as to find a few gems.
After 6,000 years of the “dog’s breakfast” of human thought, I suspect God will appreciate the “easy listening” thoughts that will arrive with the Millenial Kingdom.
Everything begins, and ends, with the cross. The cross, through Jesus’ finished work thereon, is the crux of the faith.
Amen and amen, Glenn. Everything good flows to us in the Spirit through Jesus’ sacrifice for us. Words cannot capture just how really and truly blessed we are to be called sons and daughters of GOD. Feeling so grateful and thankful! Keep the Faith and God bless you, Suzanne
