Silent Tears Ministry

  Merry Christmas to you remarkable soldiers in the body of Christ. It is my prayer that this Christmas season will be a memorable one for you and your family. St. Luke 2: 25 - 32, tells us of Simeon who lived his life waiting for the coming of the Messiah, the consolation of Israel. He would daily wait in the temple for the arrival of Jesus because he believed in the Word of God. Simeon had the assurance of Holy Spirit that He will see Jesus. Simeon, who was so sensitive to the Holy Spirit, recognized Jesus as the Messiah on that glorious day the parents of Jesus brought the child Jesus into the temple.  The text always intrigues me because I strongly believe that countless other parents brought their children to the temple but Simeon knew this child Jesus was the One. I want us to stop, reflect and consider, what should be our posture  as we await the return of Christ Jesus to earth.  Jesus is coming back, as the scriptures foretold His imminent return. Are we like...

 “ When Gideon took his warriors down to the water, the Lord told him, “Divide the men into two groups. In one group put all those who cup water in their hands and lap it up with their tongues like dogs. In the other group put all those who kneel down and drink with their mouths in the stream.”” ‭‭Judges‬ ‭7‬:‭5‬ ‭NLT The warriors represent the body of Christ. The 300 who lapped the water are warriors who realized that the King’s business requires haste and there is no time to delay. Those who bent their knees to drink water are those who are complacent and at ease in the Kingdom of God. Arise warriors in the body of Christ and be vigilant.
