Alternative Energy

October 21, 2010

 

 

Alternative energy, we hear a lot about it today.  The word itself implies that there is an energy source which is somewhat insufficient and needs to be replaced.  Whatever side of the issue you are on we do know that some day the world supply of oil will be gone.  If that time is 20 years or 200 years from now I don’t think anyone really knows for sure.  However, the day will come when oil will be a forgotten energy source that has been replaced by something else and resigned to the annals of history.  In the same way something else will pass away at some point in time and be replaced by something better.

1 Corinthians 7:31 And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.

1 John 2:17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

In the same way that some jumped on the bandwagon of Microsoft and made millions from their small investments some will invest themselves into God’s kingdom and will walk on streets of gold someday in the not so distant future.  The cost will be abandoning the things of this world that will pass away and taking on the things of God which will last forever!  The writers of the inspired word of God have declared that the fashion of this world and the world itself will pass away and be no more.  The system that we trust in and live under will be gone, replaced by a better source of life.  Some look to a day of alternative, clean energy where the world will be a utopia of pristine bliss.  This dream will not come true under the leadership of corrupt men and women who rule the world now from a selfish and self serving position.  The only time this world will go back to the garden of Eden status is when Jesus Christ comes back and rules it for a thousand years.

Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Until that time, there is an energy source that is an alternative to this world.  Jesus said it this way.

Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

God has made his Spirit available to all of us who will receive it and seek him for it.  This alternative power was poured out on the day of Pentecost in the book of Acts 2.  As you read it just imagine being filled with God’s Spirit to the point that the powers of this world have no lasting effect upon you.

Acts 2:1-4 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

This experience is for everyone!  For me and for you, for your children and their children too!  For a more in depth study into this alternative power simply go to “What Does It Mean To Receive The Holy Ghost?” and then seek God for it with all of your heart.  When you do, he will fill you to overflowing and you’ll never go back to the old way of living.  Thanks for listening and being a part of this ministry.

Here’s the inspirational scripture!

Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Till next time may God richly bless you!
