WHEN GOD BECOMES A SPRCTATOR

WHEN GOD BECOMES A SPRCTATOR


"Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved." - Matthew 24:12-13

Revelation 3:15-16 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 spue thee out of my mouth.

On the night of March 29, 1848, Niagara Falls completely and mysteriously stopped flowing.

The estimated 500,000 gallons of water that customarily rushed over the falls stalled to a trickle.

James Francis Macklem, a village justice of the peace in the Niagara area, wrote that he had witnessed the subsidence of the waters and the phenomenon of the Niagara running dry "caused great excitement in the neighborhood at the time."

To some, the mystery of this sudden "turning off" of the river seemed to be an ominous portent, and nightfall found most of the churches packed with people praying or talking in frightened voices about the end of the world.

Fear grew into the proportions of panic.

The cause of this unusual event began along the shores of Lake Erie near Buffalo. For several days, the wind had been blowing to the east over Lake Erie, driving much of its ice flow down river.

Then the winds suddenly shifted to the west, driving the lake water west and causing the lake's ice to break up and dam the river.



The Niagara River ceased to flow for almost 30 hours until the ice shifted and the dam broke up.

Listen up: When we become cold towards Christ and not let the Holy Spirit flow through our lives it can become disastrous.

Has your love for Christ grown cold?

Today in prayer, confess any sin to Christ and remember the love you had for Him when you first became a Christian.

Walk with Him and do not let your love grow cold.


Preserve your mind with His Words throughout the seasons with His word, confession etc also, cultivate the habit that can produce great spiritual growth for you...

My God ,Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
