I\u2019ve always been fascinated <\/strong>with the story of Lot and Abraham, and ponder it often. When I first read the story of Lot\u2019s escape (Genesis 19) I was horrified to see he offered up his daughters for sex, in his attempt to defend the angels he was entertaining, unaware. Sometimes bible stories are a little shocking!<\/p>\n

The two men who came to stay with him were really Angels<\/strong> sent to destroy Sodom And Gomorrah, as he found out later.<\/p>\n

Prior to this, in Genesis 13,<\/strong> we see how Lot came to be in this place. Abraham (Abram at that time) and he were havng disagreements, as the land was not large enough to accomodate both of their families, and herds. Abram suggested they seperate, to stop the quarrelling. Incidentally, Abram\u2019s name was changed to Abraham (by God himself) In Genesis 17.<\/p>\n

Abram means \u201cexalted Father\u201d where Abraham means \u201cFather of Multitudes.\u201d.<\/strong> All that aside, he generously told Lot he could choose first, if he would go to the right or the left, and Abram (his uncle) would go the other way. Lot chose the pleasant looking land, (in my mind, being a little selfish)<\/p>\n

While Abram had a surrendered attitude towards God. 2 Peter 2-8 describes Lot as a \u201crighteous man\u201d so I really pressed in toward God (many years ago) In Prayer. \u201cHow can he be righteous?\u201d I Inquired boldly toward the Lord. \u201cHe was going to let the men \u201chave their way\u201d with his daughters, he chose the better (more pleasant land) and he did not (like Abram) Build and Altar when he got to his new home.<\/p>\n

God honored Abram\u2019s prayers and saved him,<\/strong> but here is what the Lord pointed out to me \u201cLot was distressed and vexed, over the depraved conduct of the people of Sodom and Gomorrah.\u201d<\/p>\n

His heart was not in alignment with the wickedness going on around him. And yet, he had to live there, because it was the place he had chosen to be. God notices, when he sees righteousness in a person.<\/p>\n

Maybe<\/strong> you aren\u2019t all the way there, maybe you are not \u201cPerfect\u201d and perhaps not as obedient as someone else (such as Abraham) but God will STILL give you credit for at least having your feet in the waters of life.\"\ud83d\ude4f\"\/Abraham challenges us to go deeper\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n

In Fact, if we really did recieve the gift of Salvation Jesus died for, he sees you are righteous, right now. That does not mean however, that you will not be challenged to make a different choice than whatever you have done in the past.<\/p>\n

Lot got a clear warning from two angels (sent by God) \u201cGet out of this city, God is going to destroy it.\u201d In Matthew 11:20-24, Jesus mentions Sodom and Gomorrah again, as he says\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cFor if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day. But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.\u201d Let that sink in for a moment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Therefore, we have a bit of a clue, as to why we don\u2019t see miracles as often as we\u2019d like. There is great responsiblity that goes with seeing miracles.<\/p>\n

God is merciful and kind, but he is also \u201cRighteous Judge\u201d and he is not a pushover. He expects His loving kindness toward you to lead to repentance.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cFather, let the Holy Fear and reverance toward you, return to your people today,\u201d In Jesus\u2019 name\u2026\u2026..I pray. \u201cWake up\u201d those who slumber to realize you are Holy, that you don\u2019t always \u201cget down to our level\u201d but lift us up to see YOUR Viewpoint on things we don\u2019t understand.\u201d In Jesus\u2019 name! AMEN <\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tI was that “unpopular” weird kid, that didn’t fit in anywhere, in High School. I guess I never knew my place in life, until Jesus took me in. I’ve been rejected, misunderstood, left out, bullied, abused, scandalized, and labeled.
\n
\nIn 2002 I got on a bus and left a marraige of sixteen years, that was fraught with abuse and heartache. In school, I used to be so afraid to stand in front of the class and speak, my hands would visibly shake, and I could not look at my audience without being terrified.
\n
\nYears later, I find myself leading a school music production, speaking in front of churches, and walking around with confidence, because I know the King of Kings is at my side.
\n
\nMy ministry, prayers and blogs are directed toward those who feel like they were never enough. You never fit in.
\n
\nIf I can help you in any way, if you need a special speaker to speak hope to the hurting, or if you would like a copy of my Testimony book (Grace to the Rescue) let me know. I am here for you.
