From last week during church (8/24/2008):
Word
All who desire to be set free by My Spirit can be made free, indeed. But you must choose deliverance and to walk according to the truth of My word for a double-minded man will receive nothing from Me, the Living God. Who will choose to be dead to the old man and to cast down the cares of this life daily that I may show Myself strong through you? I hold out My hand, My Spirit is saying "come and draw near to Me while there is yet time. I will lead you into all truth if you only believe and walk according to all that I show you." Who will hear it and be spiritually minded this day that they may have life and peace? To be carnally minded is death but I have made a way for you to be stayed in perfect peace if you choose Me and deny the wisdom of this world. I have made the call. Who will hear My voice and be obedient to the words of My mouth?
1 Peter 4
Love in Jesus,

Amen Ryan.
The Spirit is saying, Prepare the way of the Lord, make His paths straight. To our understanding, this equates to making our calling and election sure, as in, be perfect and be holy as Jesus is Holy, or they who were ask/bidden would not come.
Matthew 22: 1And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. 4Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. 5But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: 6And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. 7But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 9Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 10So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14For many are called, but few are chosen.
Very few are actually chosen, make your choosing i.e. election sure, be full of the Holy Spirit and do not please the flesh. Obey what the Holy Spirit is urging you to do. Today is the day of salvation.
Romans 14:23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
James 4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
1 John 5:16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it. 17All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death. 18We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
