Confession Day 3

I struggle with being very angry at "Christians" whose fruit is hypocritical to Christ. Especially in a political/nationalism way. I wonder what Word they read, that makes them relocate the promise land to America. How they would treat the Messiah when He only spoke Hebrew? What scripture says God's people are required to pick a party & vote? Wonder where they started believing that they had to look like Christ, except in politics & nationalism.

I have to step away from people & social media often, because I would harden my heart to people. Especially God's people. I would forget to turn my light on & speak truth in love. I would scream the very story of the good Samaritan is about a Gentile! The first evangelist was a female Samaritan, deemed unworthy of commingling with God's people! Even though they were literally the blood line of Jacob! Christ was crossing borders & immigration barriers long before we got here to this country.

I also think I get super angry, because it scares me that I have taken in some of these feelings & emotions about a place that won't even exist when Heaven comes down to earth. That I too might be spewing things that don't reflect my love of God's people, especially the ones living in His home & still being persecuted. That when I hit the gates my political stance will cause Him to say depart I do not know you. Because He never said pick government, country, state or family over Adonai.

I quit saying the pledge of allegiance last year, because God says I'm to have nothing or anything above Him. That I can’t serve Him & Idols. That like Shadrach, Meshach & Abednego, I too have to pick God over Worldly leaders commands. I felt so un-American, until I watched so many people act so un-Godly over a man, a knee & a flag. Then God reminded me of when His people had no ruler, but Him. Then they requested a King, & they would go on to be taken captive by many other kings & rulers. They had divided their hearts. They no longer served 1 master.

It scares me that the ways of the World might be corrupting my heart, so subtly, I don't notice until I'm more Texan than Disciple. More worldly than Godly & more unknown than known by Christ. "Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man." - Proverbs 24

I don’t want to get to Heaven & have Christ ask me about those I led astray with my politics, patriotism or nationalism. I don’t want to have Him question my heart for His Word, or His people. I want to know beyond a shadow of a doubt, that when I have to pick between Elohim  & this world, I will choose Elohim!

Can you add Christ name to all you support; all you display on social media? Does your fruit taste like Christ's when people eat of it? Does your light shine on those in darkness or only on the favorable? If you die tonight, will Christ says He knows you or doesn't? Is Christ welcomed in your home, city, state, country & world just as He is, or will He have to change? Are you more in the world than of it? Have you planted seeds, grown roots or watered the political things of this world; over God’s Word?
