Whom do you serve?

---

Luke 4:5-8

5

The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.

6

And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to.

7

If you worship me, it will all be yours.”

8

Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’ ”

----

Whom do you serve?

Do you relish your nation's power and authority? Do you celebrate it's splendor and liberties? Do you thank God for what Satan has supplied you?

---

Matthew 6:24

24

"No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money."

---

Whom do you serve?

Do you take pride in your comforts? Do you consider yourself in God's favor for having plenty? Do you give thanks for what Satan has supplied you for honoring his authority?

---

Matthew 5:43-45

43

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’

44

But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

45

that you may be children of your Father in heaven.

---

None are righteous. Not one.

So whom do you serve? Do you defend your worldly claim? Do you take up arms against those who you claim are evil? Do you supply death and fear in your moral piety? Do you claim the holy fruits in the name of Satan?

---

Matthew 24:10-13

10

At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other,

11

and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.

12

Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold,

13

but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.

---

Whom do you serve?

Does your nation take life for economic stability? Does your nation starve the people of other nations to gain what they desire? Does your politics make the rich richer and the poor poorer? Does Satan grant your nation influence and authority for your service?

---

Jude 1:16

16

These people are grumblers and fault finders; they follow their own evil desires; they boast about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage.

---

Whom do you serve?

Do you not defend those who support you, and attack those who challenge you? Do you not feast with the full, and starve the hungry? Do you not give death meaning, rebelling against God like Satan himself did?

---

I pray for you to listen and repent. No measure of man's authority can supply holiness. Do not look to your leaders for what can only be supplied in faith in the Son of God. No nation of man can claim what is freely given through the kingdom of eternal truth. No authority of man can become righteousness that belongs to the Father alone. We are all equal in the eyes of God, be merciful, show compassion.

A nation that gives everything it has away, gains what cannot be given, but instead is earned. A nation that claims everything it desires, gains nothing that will last.

Whom do you serve!
