This Way Out

Given January 31, 2008

This morning, I was praying for those on my “Lost” list.  Some of these people have been on my list for a long time, I and others have spoken to them but they remain lost.

The Holy Spirit showed me a picture of them and others who are lost.  When someone is lost in the forest and they come upon a sign that says, “This way out.”, they rejoice and readily follow the sign to safety. Or someone who is wandering around in the dark when suddenly, they see a light. They will be drawn to the light to get out of the darkness.  Right?

People who live in this country and in our time and are unsaved, (lost), have these, “This way out.” signs all around them but they frequently choose to remain lost!  They are wandering in darkness, see the light, but choose to remain in the dark!  It doesn’t make sense.  We know the devil is blinding them to the way of safety.

Jesus said, “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John 8:12”  Let’s keep reminding our lost loved ones to follow the light and keep praying that their eyes will be opened to the dangers of darkness.  I declare that those on my list will hear; “And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, Isaiah 30:21“, and heed the voice of salvation.
