 Do you know you are saved? Do you hear Hisvoice and follow Him?
Dear friend do you know for sure that you are saved?Do doubts flood through your mind as to whether you are saved?Do you know the wonder working power of your salvation?Or do you find yourself merely going through the motions?Do you know that if you died today you are going to heaven?Do you have the knowledge and peace knowing your sins are forgiven?Did you say the sinner’s prayer looking for a ticket to heaven?Or have you now with your Father in heaven found reconciliation?Do you find that there is much in you that is pure emotion?Emotion that can be turned on and off like a tap,Or have you given yourself over to a life of devotion, To the one who shed His blood for you and me?He wants us to come to Him in true repentance,Each and every one of has been given the chance,We have been asked to take up our cross and follow Him, To die to all that is self living now and forever only for Him. Jesus said “My sheep hear my voice and follow me.”How He longs for us His heart and His face to seek,So friend the Spirit of the Lord is asking you today,“Do you really know Jesus Christ, He is the only way?”Do you have other things you place before the Lord Jesus?Does your mouth pronounce words of blessings or curses? This is a serious topic for a poem for sure,But we must remember that Jesus is sin’s only cure.Do you really know the Perfect Spotless Son of God? The one who reveals Himself to us in His Word?All scripture is breathed on by the Spirit of the Lord,Do you feed yourself and live by the truth of the Word?Are there things you need to bring before the Lord? Things hindering you in your walk with your Father, God;
 
 Just as the Lord is dealing with me as He gives me this poem,He says to all who are afar off “Today is the time to come home.”I can hear the Spirit speaking to me about my own selfish ways,And yet I have promised to serve Jesus the rest of my days,Oh I am a wretched woman, who can take my eyes off of Jesus,And find myself about silly things making such a fuss.So I’ve not got it all together, I am a work in progress,But I know that in Jesus I can find perfect rest,And I find it so amazing that Jesus for me intercedes,In Him I have now found a wonderful joy and peace. The Lord says” I long for you my people to draw close to Me, To walk in harmony, to forgive one another and love as I love,Hurts of the past I want to heal, but I want you to submit to Me,I have given you My Spirit that you might be empowered from above.Get to know My voice, it’s time for discernment and recognition,As I speak afresh to you, giving you words bearing new revelation,For I speak with clarity, every detail, you so often are not listening,Open your ears My bride, hear what I am saying and do My bidding.Are you ready to obey my voice when I tell you what to do?If you are truly one of My Sheep you need to follow Me,Listen to what I am saying specifically as I speak to you,An obedient and contrite heart will be blessed by Me.From that place you will see the wonders of my Kingdom,I long to see you to move in full might and power by my Spirit, That lives of people around about you might find freedom,Many, many captives set free in the knowledge of Me by My Spirit.Remember now that I have given you a commission,I asked you to go outside your church walls and preach the Gospel, The message you have to take is the Gospel of the KingdomFor I want to see towns, cities and nations saved if you the people will tell?”Irene McGough
