The Albuquerque Journal is reporting this morning that New Mexico is now number one in property crime in the nation. Not the news we wanted to see, but it was expected. And New Mexico had the second highest rate for violent crime
My heart continues to break at news like this for our beautiful state and for our children. We have to do better for our children. We have to give them great opportunities, but that will not happen with our crime so out of control.
We reported this week that the murder rate has dramatically increased in Albuquerque.
Our young people are leaving the state to seek jobs and a safer environment.
Jesus wants us to take our roles as salt seriously—both as a preservative and a seasoning. Through us, the lost are to be drawn to the Lord—-preserved for eternal life. They also “taste and see that the Lord is good” Ps. 34:8 and see that following Him is life at its very best. Read Matthew 5:13
From this week………
This report by the FBI should stop us all in our steps. Satan has taken over many in Albuquerque. Is there an end to this murder rate? When you read this report its like almost unbelievable, but I live here, I know the dangers, so many house robberies and stabbings in our area. Politics is not the answer, JESUS is!
True Revival must happen in Albuquerque soon or the city is lost.
The famed British Evangelist Gipsy Smith used to ask his audience, “Do you really want to see a revival begin?” When the people said yes, Gipsy replied, “Then go back to your home and draw a circle around you on the floor. Then get down on your knees in the middle of the circle and ask God to convert everybody inside that circle. When you do that, and God answers, you are experiencing the start of revival.”
Just think of all the minds in Albuquerque that are controlled by Satan.
God’s Word call’s the mind of the natural man “blinded” Read 2 Cor. 4:4 The scriptures also call’s the mind of the natural man, “depraved” Romans 1:28, “corrupt” 1 Tim 6:5, “unspiritual” Col 12:18
The natural mind thinks from a humanistic, sin debased viewpoint. The viewpoint of the flesh directs it’s thoughts. The sinful mind is under the control of Satan and can never please God because it concentrates on things of the world and not things of the Spirit. The natural mind walks the path of hopelessness and self-destruction.
Let your light shine before the darkness, let your light for Jesus show others the only true path.
As you grow in your relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ your discernment will grow and you will be able to see His light so clearly and your God given discernment will enable you to see through the darkness so clear, you will be set free more and more knowing the difference between good and evil.
Read the report from the Journal and pray please…….
