Commotion Free Cemeteries

Tuesday, November 16, 2021

One of the biggest problems we have in the Lord is we want commotion-free walks. We want a place where there's no commotion. If you want a place where there's no commotion, go to a cemetery. If you find commotion in a cemetery, you're in trouble. In a dead place there's no commotion, but light in darkness causes commotion. The life of God in a dead world will cause commotion. When Messiah came into the world he caused a stir in Bethlehem. In Nazareth and Galilee, there was commotion. Palm Sunday, there was commotion. They said, "Who is this who stirs up the whole city?" God's presence causes commotion in daily life. If He's come into your life, it will cause commotion in your routine. Don't go for a commotion-free walk; it'll be dead. Maybe what you need is something to get stirred up a bit. Let God interrupt your routine. Let Him shake us out of it. Forget the rut, forget the routine; let the presence of God come fresh in your life. Let it cause a commotion because God wants to bring that cemetery in your life into Palm Sunday.
