"Barriers"

“Barriers”

Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear.  But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear.       Isaiah 59:1-2



What BARRIERS do you have that are SEPARATING you from God, maybe even SEPARATING you from your ETERNAL INHERITANCE of an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS?  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then your ETERNAL LIFE will be in a place called HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE.  If you are a TRUE BELIEVER, and you have UNCONFESSED SIN in your HEART and LIFE, then you are SEPARATING yourself from God, and are unable to fellowship with Him. 



It is NOT God’s fault in any of these situations.  He has provided SALVATION to ANYBODY, who will come to Him with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART, and CONFESS their iniquities, which are the BARRIERS that are SEPARATING you from God and ALL He has to offer His TRUE CHILDREN.  Whether, SAVED or UNSAVED, your sins are like FILTHY, ROTTEN, PUTRID rags before the RIGHTEOUS, ALMIGHTY GOD, and that you are still clinging to.  And as long as they are in your life, UNCONFESSED, they will cause God to HIDE His face from you and He will NOT HEAR you, when you PRAY, unless it is a PRAYER of REPENTANCE and REMORSE for your UNCONFESSED sins.



King David tells us, in Psalm 66:18:  “If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would NOT have listened.”  UNCONFESSED SINS are BARRIERS, which SEPARATES us from God, and for the UNSAVED they are SPIRITUAL DEATH WARRANTS that will bring JUDGMENT and CONDEMNATION of an ETERNITY in HELL.  For the SAVED, it breaks the line of FELLOWSHIP and COMMUNICATION to God.  These BARRIERS MUST be CRUSHED in either case.  There is ONLY ONE who can do that, the LORD JESUS CHRIST.



In order for Him to be your BARRIER BREAKER, you MUST BE WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  You MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  Then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION and let JESUS break down ALL those BARRIERS that are SEPARATING you from your HEAVENLY FATHER.  And receive Heaven as your ETERNAL HOME, and for the TRUE BELIEVER, have your FELLOWSHIP with God RESTORED.  Do this NOW, while you still can.   He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
