Mark 4:9 Then he said, “Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand.”
Some have ears to hear. You did. And you came to a saving belief in me and have been faithful to that belief ever since. But, many do not. I will give you discernment as to who is who. You are to preach my Word. You are to be a light in this darkness and stand boldly for me. You are to be strong and courageous in the face of opposition — opposition which is really against me, not you. You are not to cower but stand boldly in the face of your enemy. For many have fallen captive to his lies. Give the good news of the Gospel. Do your best to present my Truth to everyone that they may be saved. But be aware of your audience. Many will choose not to hear Truth. Some will not be ready, some will never be ready. You are to sow the seeds and leave the harvest to me. But, if you know in your spirit that you are not making any inroads, that the person to whom you speak is not willing or able to hear, move on. There are so many who need to know me, and those who choose not to should not get any more of your time. Pray for them and move on to someone else. Does that mean that I will be giving up on them? No. But your time and efforts are limited and need to be used as effectively as possible in these dark days. (2022)
