What Happened to Gravity?

Just to repeat what I wrote on my Facebook status line: I am wondering if anyone feels the shaking going on? In your emotions it feels uncomfortable; unsettling.You may feel fear, insecurity and unstable about life, your job, your future, your savings, mortgage, retirement, IRA, etc.
I have been feeling the shaking and though it is affecting me on an emotional level it is really a spiritual issue. Do you feel it too? Do you also feel like you are being shaken to the core of your being? If you have not or are not feeling the shaking yet, then think of this blog as a prophetic word, because the shaking will touch your life.
We can see the shaking going on in our country which will eventually affect all of us on a personal level. I believe that it is going to get worse and that is why we need to depend on something that can not be shaken; something that is so solid and firm that no matter what goes on in the earth (earthquakes, tornado’s, tsunami’s, floods, fires, wars, H1N1, bird flu, epidemics, diseases, financial disaster, etc) we will not have any fear, but will be in perfect peace.
For example, right now I am going through a personal “shaking” (again)that feels like every part of me has been tossed up into the air and I am no longer standing on solid ground. (What happened to gravity?) It’s like threshing & winnowing harvested wheat by hand.The seed heads are crushed and then laid out on a bed sheet and tossed into the air in order to be “set free” from the chaff. The wheat falls to the sheet, but the chaff is blown away by the wind.The tossing continues until all the chaff has blown away and the only thing left is the wheat.
Whether you know Jesus Christ personally right now or not, His desire is for you to depend on and trust in Him in every area of your life. He loves all of us totally, completely and unconditionally. It is important that we discover those things in us that need to be crushed, threshed & winnowed, which I am condensing into the word “shaken”, because this process actually reveals to us those areas of our lives where we do not trust Him fully. The world is being shaken as well, so that everything that is not built on Him will be removed and only the things founded on Him will remain. It will affect us personally, since we live in the world. However if we surrender to Him and allow Him to shake us, we will have a strong foundation that can not be shaken and the things going on in the earth will not even faze us. We will abide in perfect peace and joy. This is His desire for all of us. It’s important to understand,because He is the King of Kings and His Kingdom is not of this world. His Kingdom can not be shaken no matter what happens on this earth, so as we surrender our lives to Him daily we become unshakeable as well. I am not saying that if we do this that life will immediately become easy, because there will always be something in us that needs to be crushed, threshed & winnowed. It is called sin. However, it is His grace on us to teach us how to surrender to the process right now. He wants to shake us free of everything that is not of Him, so that only the things that are of Him will remain. Anything that we have built our lives on other than Him will crumble beneath our feet. Building our lives on Him is like building on solid rock that cannot be shaken, blown away or destroyed.The more dependent we are on Him, the more unshakeable we become.
If you have not accepted Him as your personal Savior now is the time.This blog was not specifically about salvation.However it is important that you know how to receive Jesus right now, if that is what you want to do.This is just a brief explanation.
The chaff in our lives is sin. Every way in which we fall short of perfection is “sin”. Our sins separate us from God and there is no way to be forgiven or to be reconciled to God and get to heaven except through Jesus Christ, God’s Son. But Father God loved us so much that He sent Jesus to die for our sins. Jesus also loved us and was willing to take all of our sins, to suffer and die on the cross for us. He took the punishment for our sins so that if we choose to believe in Him, we would not have to be punished.It is through His shed blood on the cross that we are saved and set free from the bondage of sin. It’s through Him that we are forgiven when we turn to Him and repent. It is totally up to us what we want to do with this truth. If you want to accept Him as your Savior then ask Him into your life, repent for your sins, receive His forgiveness and then live for Him. To live for Him means total surrender to His will and to be obedient to Him. Please let me know if you want to do this or if you have any questions.
