This is the year of intolerance. The Lord is simply not going to put up with our mismanagement of life. He is just not going to do it anymore. Our Father in Heaven expects us to be intelligent, wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
Matthew 10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
This is the year for Christians to decide if they are just going to be Believers or Followers of Christ. It does not cost much to believe but it cost everything to follow Christ. Intimidation is a cowardly move. Threats of violence and death are expected for Christians. Jesus told His first disciples what to look forward to because of serving and following the Son of God. If we die in the Lord the reward is great.
Matthew 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
Revelation 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
Patrick Henry is famous for the phrase, "Give me liberty or give me death". People of God rise up. Do you not realize that we have accepted death in the form of slavery to a worldly systematic institution? Jesus fought for our liberty on the cross, we are no longer subservient to sin. We do not owe sin anything, Jesus paid it all. The Marines had a recruiting slogan some years ago stating, "Were Looking For a Few Good Men." This statement had to be changed to include woman.
Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
Acts 10:35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
Matthew 10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

Freedom Fighter Song:
Every morning when I rise got to get my exercise
I fall down on my knees and pray this is how I start my day
Very soon I'll get my pay, could not have it any other way
The Word of God opens up the door, Satan and his foes fall to the floor
I come in with a mopping crew, the devil never knew which wind blew
Tell my feet to hit the floor, cause God gonna open up a special door
This is why I serve the Lord my life is not so hard
Freedom Fighters taking over the yard until we see the Lord
He's coming back again we are sure to win
We'll be caught up in the sky like a bird that can surely fly
Freedom Fighter on the move nothing we have to prove
The victory is in the Word surely you have heard
Can you hear what I hear, we have nothing to fear
1234, 1234, back up let's do it again
Let me hear it... Every morning when I rise got to get my exercise!
I love this song!
