Scripture Of The Day
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth. Revelation 3:15-16
By Cheryl Henderson
If you have ever taken a driver's license test, you may have seen a question something like this: What time of day is it most difficult to see and distinguish objects on the road?
(1) Early morning
(2) Late night
(3) Twilight (the period between sunset and nighttime)
The correct answer is (3) Twilight.
Twilight is neither fully light nor dark. It reminds me of what happens when we try to live with one foot in God's kingdom and the other in the world. We become spiritually compromised. Our vision becomes clouded, making it harder to see things as they really are. This affects our decisions and leaves us vulnerable to deception.
I call it compromise.
Jesus addressed this very condition when He spoke to the church at Laodicea in Revelation 3. He described them as neither hot nor cold, but lukewarm. He was not pleased with their spiritual condition.
Jesus does not want us living a compromised life, trying to hold on to the things of God while still embracing the things of the world. He calls us to wholehearted devotion to Him. He wants us to be spiritually alive, passionate, and on fire for Him.
So here is the question: Are you hot, cold, or lukewarm?
Only you and God can answer that question. Don't settle for twilight when God has called you to walk in the light!
