and fasting (Matthew 17:20,21).
Do you cooperate with God in
reasoning with Him? The Bible says,
Come now, and let us reason
together, saith the LORD (Isaiah
18:1). Do you cooperate in wanting
God’s divine will, or do you do things
your own way? The Bible says, There
is a way which seemeth right unto
a man, but the end thereof are the
ways of death (Proverbs 14:12). The
only way you can cooperate with God
is by saying as Jesus did, Not my will,
but thine, be done (Luke 22:42).
Help God do great things.
lost. They will never rejoice with the
saints in Heaven or walk down the
avenue of Glory because hell will be
their destiny.
The rich man who passed by the
beggar, Lazarus, every day did not
cooperate with God; and when he
died, in hell he lift up his eyes,
being in torments (Luke 16:23).
The Bible says, The wicked shall be
turned into hell (Psalm 9:17). It also
says, The soul that sinneth, it shall
die (Ezekiel 18:20). Once a person is
in hell, they can never get out.
Judgment is on the heels of many
people today because they won’t
cooperate with God. They worship
so many gods besides the true and
living God; they love their sins and
the ways of the world, and they want
to satisfy the lusts of the flesh. They
don’t want to lift up holy hands before
the Lord or have a holy heart, so many
of their lives are a mess.
The storms of life are raging all
around, and they are going to get
worse and worse in this last hour
before Jesus comes. Without God, your
little ship will wreck because He is the
only one who can be your anchor of
salvation. O come, let us sing unto
the LORD: let us make a joyful
noise to the rock of our salvation
(Psalm 95:1). Jesus went to Calvary
and gave His life for you; and now, you
must take up your cross and cooperate
with Him.
Do You Cooperate?
You can cooperate with the Lord
if you really want to; so are you
cooperating with God in prayer,
fasting and living in the Word? Jesus
told His disciples, Nothing shall be
impossible unto you. Howbeit this
kind goeth not out but by prayer
God only needs the cooperation of
a few to do great things. Noah and his
family were just eight souls, but they
built an ark that saved them and two
of every animal that was on Earth at
that time. Think of the great things
God could do today if more people
would cooperate with Him.
The Bible lets people know that
destruction is coming just as it did in
Noah’s day; but people didn’t listen
then, and they are not listening today.
God waited over 100 years for the ark
to be built, and He has waited much
longer than that to receive people’s
cooperation during this Church Age.
It’s been about 2000 years since Jesus
was on Earth, and so many people still
are not cooperating with God. That
is why we have so many spiritually
dead churches led by spiritually dead
preachers with spiritually dead people
in the pews.
Don’t Be a Hypocrite
Many people think they are going
to Heaven, but it’s not God’s Heaven.
His Heaven is a place of no sin. It’s a
