Revelation 3:16 (NKJV) 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.
Making sure we are not lukewarm is very important.
Many times we can tell if we’re becoming lukewarm by paying attention to the things we are agreeing or not agreeing with. We need to pay attention to the things we are doing and participating in, whether it’s at work, after hours, maybe in school, or on the weekends.
We need to pay attention to the things we are listening to, watching, looking at, etc. This will show us where we are at in our hearts.
Are we cold, hot or lukewarm? No one else can answer this for us. We are accountable for the positions we take.
If we are walking in a lukewarm position daily or even if we catch ourselves heading in that direction once in awhile, we need to recognize it and see it for what it is. We need to know what God says about it and repent, changing our habits.
When we start making changes in the right direction, we’ll feel that pull from things and people around us. It’ll try to get us to keep on doing what we were doing.
It will make us feel like we are missing out on all the fun, all the so called hip stuff, the in crowd, etc. But don’t fall for it. Simply take a stand and stick to it.
Saying no and walking away is going to be the beginning of better days and a new and brighter future for us.
Pray and ask God to open our eyes and our heart to discern, and to make better choices. Amen.
