Sound Mind - Sober Spirit by Keith Cook
"But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. Use hospitality one to another without grudging. As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. " 1 Peter 4:7-11
When life is uncertain and our future seems to be in question, it is so good to know that we face these circumstances together as families, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. More importantly, it is good to know that Jesus sees our circumstances, understands our fears, and cares about our future. God has promised us through His Word how to live together in faith and how to trust Him regardless of our circumstances.
The message that God has for our generation, I believe can be found in 1 Peter 4:7-11. Peter was directed by the Holy Spirit to write these verses hundreds of years ago. In these verses, he told the people then, "you had better watch out because the end is near."
He had a message from God; a fresh word for his generation. I believe that every generation needs men and women who live their lives as if they are living on the edge of eternity. They are men and women of passion - real champions for God! They boldly share God's message of salvation as if today were their last day on this earth.
